2 Peter 3:9-15
9The LordG2962 is not slowG3756G1019 in keeping His promiseG1860 asG5613 someG5100 understandG2233 slownessG1022, butG235 is patientG3114 withG1519 youG4771, notG3361 wantingG1014 anyoneG5100 to perishG622 butG235 everyoneG3956 to comeG5562 toG1519 repentanceG3341.
10ButG1161 the DayG2250 of the LordG2962 will comeG2240 likeG5613 a thiefG2812. TheG3588 heavensG3772 will disappearG3928 with a roarG4500, the elementsG4747 will be destroyedG30891 by fireG2741, andG2532 the earthG1093 andG2532 its worksG2041 will be laid bareG3756G2147.2
11Since everythingG3956G3778 will be destroyedG3089 in this wayG3779, what kind ofG4217 people oughtG1163 youG4771 to beG5225? You ought to conduct yourselvesG391 inG1722 holinessG40 andG2532 godlinessG2150 12as you anticipateG4328 andG2532 hastenG4692 theG3588 comingG3952 of theG3588 dayG2250 of GodG2316, whenG1223G3739 the heavensG3772 will be destroyedG3089 by fireG4448 andG2532 the elementsG4747 will meltG5080 in the heatG2741. 13ButG1161 in keeping withG2596 God’s promiseG1862, we are looking forward toG4328 a newG2537 heavenG3772 andG2532 a newG2537 earthG1093, whereG1722G3739 righteousnessG1343 dwellsG2730.
14ThereforeG1352, belovedG27, as you anticipateG4328 these thingsG3778, make every effortG4704 to be foundG2147 atG1722 peaceG1515—spotlessG784 andG2532 blamelessG298 in HisG846 sight.3
15Consider also thatG2532G2233 ourG1473 Lord’sG2962 patienceG3115 brings salvationG4991, just asG2531 ourG1473 belovedG27 brotherG80 PaulG3972 alsoG2532 wroteG1125 youG4771 withG2596 theG3588 wisdomG4678 God gave himG1325G846.
