2 Peter 3:5-7
5For 1when they maintain this, it escapes their notice that 2by the word of God the heavens existed long ago and the earth was 3formed out of water and by water, 6through which 4the world at that time was 5destroyed, being flooded with water. 7But by His word 6the present heavens and earth are being reserved for 7fire, kept for 8the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
