2 Peter 3:4-10

Diaglott(i) 4 and saying: Where is the promise of the presence of him? from of which for the fathers feel asleep, all things thus remains from a beginning of creation. 5 It escapes notice for them this being willing, that heavens were of old, and earth out of water and through water having been placed together, by the of the God word, 6 by means of which things the then world by water having been deluged was destroyed; 7 the but now heavens and the earth by the him word having been treasured up are, for fire being kept to a day of judgment and destruction of the impious men. 8 One but this not let escape you, beloved ones, that one day with Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as a day one. 9 Not is slow the Lord of the promise, as some slowness account; but is long-suffering towards us not desiring some to perish, but all for a reformation to come. 10 Will come but the day of Lord as a thief, in which the heavens with a rushing sound will pass away, elements and burning intensely will be dissolved, and earth and all in her works will be burned up.
