2 Peter 3:7-9

7But by His wordG3056 1the presentG3568 heavensG3772 and earthG1093 are being reservedG2343 for 2fireG4442, keptG5083 for 3the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920 and destructionG684 of ungodlyG765 peopleG444.

8But do not let thisG3778 oneG1520 fact escapeG2990 your noticeG2990, 4belovedG27, that with the LordG2962 oneG1520 dayG2250 is likeG5613 a thousandG5507 yearsG2094, and 5a thousandG5507 yearsG2094 likeG5613 oneG1520 dayG2250. 96The LordG2962 is not slowG1019 about His promiseG1860, as someG5100 countG2233 slownessG1022, but 7isG3114 patientG3114 towardG1519 you, 8not willingG1014 for anyG5100 to perishG622, but for allG3956 to comeG5562 to repentanceG3341.
