2 Peter 3:7-10
New American Standard Bible 1995
7 But by His word (A)the present heavens and earth are being reserved for (B)fire, kept for (C)the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.
8 But do not let this one fact escape your notice, (D)beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and (E)a thousand years like one day. 9 (F)The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but (G)is patient toward you, (H)not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.
A New Heaven and Earth
10 But (I)the day of the Lord (J)will come like a thief, in which (K)the heavens (L)will pass away with a roar and the (M)elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and (N)the earth and [a]its works will be [b]burned up.
