2 Peter 3:1-13

3:1

This
<5026>

second
<1208>

epistle
<1992>_,

beloved
<27>_,

I
<1125> (0)

now
<2235>

write
<1125> (5719)

unto you
<5213>_;

in
<1722>

[both] which
<3739>

I stir up
<1326> (5719)

your
<5216>

pure
<1506>

minds
<1271>

by way
<1722>

of remembrance
<5280>_:

3:2

That ye may be mindful
<3415> (5683)

of the words
<4487>

which were spoken before
<4280> (5772)

by
<5259>

the holy
<40>

prophets
<4396>_,

and
<2532>

of the commandment
<1785>

of us
<2257>

the apostles
<652>

of the Lord
<2962>

and
<2532>

Saviour
<4990>_:

3:3

Knowing
<1097> (5723)

this
<5124>

first
<4412>_,

that
<3754>

there shall come
<2064> (5695)

in
<1909>

the last
<2078>

days
<2250>

scoffers
<1703>_,

walking
<4198> (5740)

after
<2596>

their
<846>

own
<2398>

lusts
<1939>_,

3:4

And
<2532>

saying
<3004> (5723)_,

Where
<4226>

is
<2076> (5748)

the promise
<1860>

of his
<846>

coming
<3952>_?

for
<1063>

since
<575> <3739>

the fathers
<3962>

fell asleep
<2837> (5681)_,

all things
<3956>

continue
<3779> <1265> (5719)

as [they were] from
<575>

the beginning
<746>

of the creation
<2937>_.

3:5

For
<1063>

this
<5124>

they
<846>

willingly
<2309> (5723)

are ignorant of
<2990> (5719)_,

that
<3754>

by the word
<3056>

of God
<2316>

the heavens
<3772>

were
<2258> (5713)

of old
<1597>_,

and
<2532>

the earth
<1093>

standing out
<4921> (5761)

of
<1537>

the water
<5204>

and
<2532>

in
<1223>

the water
<5204>_:

{standing: Gr. consisting}

3:6

Whereby
<1223> <3739>

the world
<2889>

that then was
<5119>_,

being overflowed
<2626> (5685)

with water
<5204>_,

perished
<622> (5639)_:

3:7

But
<1161>

the heavens
<3772>

and
<2532>

the earth
<1093>_,

which are now
<3568>_,

by the same
<846>

word
<3056>

are
<1526> (5748)

kept in store
<2343> (5772)_,

reserved
<5083> (5746)

unto fire
<4442>

against
<1519>

the day
<2250>

of judgment
<2920>

and
<2532>

perdition
<684>

of ungodly
<765>

men
<444>_.

3:8

But
<1161>_,

beloved
<27>_,

be
<2990> (0)

not
<3361> <5209>

ignorant
<2990> (5720)

of this one
<1520>

thing
<5124>_,

that
<3754>

one
<3391>

day
<2250>

[is] with
<3844>

the Lord
<2962>

as
<5613>

a thousand
<5507>

years
<2094>_,

and
<2532>

a thousand
<5507>

years
<2094>

as
<5613>

one
<3391>

day
<2250>_.

3:9

The Lord
<2962>

is
<1019> (0)

not
<3756>

slack
<1019> (5719)

concerning his promise
<1860>_,

as
<5613>

some men
<5100>

count
<2233> (5736)

slackness
<1022>_;

but
<235>

is longsuffering
<3114> (5719)

to
<1519>

us-ward
<2248>_,

not
<3361>

willing
<1014> (5740)

that any
<5100>

should perish
<622> (5641)_,

but
<235>

that all
<3956>

should come
<5562> (5658)

to
<1519>

repentance
<3341>_.

3:10

But
<1161>

the day
<2250>

of the Lord
<2962>

will come
<2240> (5692)

as
<5613>

a thief
<2812>

in
<1722>

the night
<3571>_;

in
<1722>

the which
<3739>

the heavens
<3772>

shall pass away
<3928> (5695)

with a great noise
<4500>_,

and
<1161>

the elements
<4747>

shall melt
<3089> (5701)

with fervent heat
<2741> (5746)_,

the earth
<1093>

also
<2532>

and
<2532>

the works
<2041>

that are therein
<1722> <846>

shall be burned up
<2618> (5691)_.

3:11

[Seeing] then
<3767>

[that] all
<3956>

these things
<5130>

shall be dissolved
<3089> (5746)_,

what manner
<4217>

[of persons] ought
<1163> (5748)

ye
<5209>

to be
<5225> (5721)

in
<1722>

[all] holy
<40>

conversation
<391>

and
<2532>

godliness
<2150>_,

3:12

Looking for
<4328> (5723)

and
<2532>

hasting
<4692> (5723)

unto the coming
<3952>

of the day
<2250>

of God
<2316>_,

wherein
<1223> <3739>

the heavens
<3772>

being on fire
<4448> (5746)

shall be dissolved
<3089> (5701)_,

and
<2532>

the elements
<4747>

shall melt
<5080> (5743)

with fervent heat
<2741> (5746)_?

{hasting...: or, hasting the coming}

3:13

Nevertheless
<1161>

we
<4328> (0)_,

according to
<2596>

his
<846>

promise
<1862>_,

look for
<4328> (5719)

new
<2537>

heavens
<3772>

and
<2532>

a new
<2537>

earth
<1093>_,

wherein
<1722> <3739>

dwelleth
<2730> (5719)

righteousness
<1343>_.
