1ThisG3778 secondG1208 epistleG1992, belovedG27, IG1125 nowG2235 writeG1125 unto youG4771; inG1722 both whichG3739 I stir upG1326 yourG4771 pureG1506 mindsG1271 by way ofG1722 remembranceG5280: 2That ye may be mindfulG3403 of the wordsG4487 which were spoken beforeG4302 byG5259 theG4396 holyG40 prophetsG4396, andG2532 of the commandmentG1785 of usG1473 the apostlesG3588G652 of the LordG3588G2962 andG2532 SaviourG4990: 3KnowingG1097 thisG3778 firstG4412, thatG3754 there shall comeG2064 inG1909 theG3588 lastG2078 daysG2250 scoffersG1703, walkingG4198 afterG2596 theirG846 ownG2398 lustsG3588G1939, 4AndG2532 sayingG3004, WhereG4226 isG1510 the promiseG3588G1860 ofG3588G3952 hisG846 comingG3588G3952? forG1063 sinceG575 the fathersG3588G3962 fell asleepG2837, all thingsG3956 continueG1265 asG3779 they were fromG575 the beginningG746 of the creationG2937. 5ForG1063 thisG3778 theyG846 willinglyG2309 are ignorant ofG2990, thatG3754 by the wordG3056 of GodG3588G2316 the heavensG3772 wereG1510 of oldG1597, andG2532 the earthG1093 standingG4921 out ofG1537 the waterG5204 andG2532 inG1223 the waterG5204: 6WherebyG1223 the worldG3588G2889 that then wasG5119, being overflowedG2626 with waterG5204, perishedG622: 7ButG1161 the heavensG3588G3772 andG2532 the earthG3588G1093, which are nowG3568, byG3056 the sameG846 wordG3056 areG1510 kept in storeG2343, reservedG5083 unto fireG4442 againstG1519 the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920 andG2532 perditionG684 ofG444 ungodlyG3588G765 menG444.

8ButG1161, belovedG27, beG2990 notG3361 ignorant ofG2990 thisG3778 one thingG1520, thatG3754 oneG1520 dayG2250 is withG3844 the LordG2962 asG5613 a thousandG5507 yearsG2094, andG2532 a thousandG5507 yearsG2094 asG5613 oneG1520 dayG2250. 9The LordG3588G2962 isG1019 notG3756 slackG1019 concerning his promiseG3588G1860, asG5613 some menG5100 countG2233 slacknessG1022; butG235 is longsufferingG3114 toG1519 us-wardG1473, notG3361 willing thatG1014 anyG5100 should perishG622, but thatG235 allG3956 should comeG5562 toG1519 repentanceG3341.

10ButG1161 the dayG3588G2250 of the LordG2962 will comeG2240 asG5613 a thiefG2812 inG1722 the nightG3571; inG1722 the whichG3739 the heavensG3588G3772 shall pass awayG3928 with a great noiseG4500, andG1161 the elementsG4747 shall meltG3089 with fervent heatG2741, the earthG1093 alsoG2532 andG2532 the worksG2041 that areG3588 thereinG1722 shall be burned upG2618. 11Seeing thenG3767 that allG3956 these thingsG3778 shall be dissolvedG3089, what mannerG4217 of persons oughtG1163 yeG4771 to beG5225 inG1722 all holyG40 conversationG391 andG2532 godlinessG2150, 12Looking forG4328 andG2532 hasting untoG4692 the comingG3588G3952 of the dayG2250 of GodG3588G2316, whereinG1223 the heavensG3772 being on fireG4448 shall be dissolvedG3089, andG2532 the elementsG4747 shall meltG5080 with fervent heatG2741? 13NeverthelessG1161 weG4328, according toG2596 hisG846 promiseG3588G1862, look forG4328 newG2537 heavensG3772 andG2532 a newG2537 earthG1093, whereinG1722 dwellethG2730 righteousnessG1343. 14WhereforeG1352, belovedG27, seeing that ye look forG4328 such thingsG3778, be diligent thatG4704 ye may be foundG2147 of himG846 inG1722 peaceG1515, without spotG784, andG2532 blamelessG298. 15

AndG2532 accountG2233 that the longsufferingG3115 ofG3588G2962 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 is salvationG4991; even asG2531 ourG1473 belovedG3588G27 brotherG80 PaulG3972 alsoG2532 according toG2596 the wisdomG3588G4678 givenG1325 unto himG846 hath writtenG1125 unto youG4771; 16AsG5613 alsoG2532 inG1722 allG3956 his epistlesG3588G1992, speakingG2980 inG1722 themG846 ofG4012 these thingsG3778; inG1722 whichG3739 areG1510 some thingsG5100 hard to be understoodG1425, whichG3739 they that are unlearnedG261 andG2532 unstableG793 wrestG4761, asG5613 they do alsoG2532 the otherG3062 scripturesG1124, untoG4314 theirG846 ownG2398 destructionG684.

17YeG4771 thereforeG3767, belovedG27, seeing ye knowG4267 these things beforeG4267, bewareG5442 lestG2443G3361 ye alsoG1601, being led awayG4879 with the errorG3588G4106 of the wickedG3588G113, fallG1601 fromG4740 your ownG3588G2398 stedfastnessG4740. 18ButG1161 growG837 inG1722 graceG5485, andG2532 in the knowledgeG1108 ofG3588G2962 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 andG2532 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. To himG846 be gloryG3588G1391 bothG2532 nowG3568 andG2532 forG1519 everG165. AmenG281.
