2 Peter 3:7-9
7But by His word 1the present heavens and earth are being reserved for 2fire, kept for 3the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
8But do not let this one fact escape your notice, 4beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and 5a thousand years like one day. 96The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but 7is patient toward you, 8not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.
