2 Peter 3:3-8
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
3
Know this first
of all,
that in the last days mockers will come with
their
mocking, following after their own lusts,
4
and saying, 'Where is the promise of His coming? For
ever
since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue just as
they were
from the beginning of creation.'
5
For when they maintain this, it escapes their notice that by the word of God
the
heavens existed long ago and
the
earth was formed out of water and by water,
6
through which the world at that time was destroyed by being flooded with water.
7
But by His word the present heavens and earth are being reserved for fire, kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly people.
8
But do not let this one
fact
escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.
King James Version
Chapter 3
3
Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4
And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
5
For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
6
Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
7
But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
8
But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 3
3
Above all, be aware of this: Scoffers will come in the last days scoffing and following their own evil desires,
4
saying, "Where is his ‘coming’ that he promised? Ever since our ancestors fell asleep, all things continue as they have been since the beginning of creation."
5
They deliberately overlook this: By the word of God the heavens came into being long ago and the earth was brought about from water and through water.
6
Through these the world of that time perished when it was flooded.
7
By the same word, the present heavens and earth are stored up for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.
8
Dear friends, don’t overlook this one fact: With the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.
New Living Translation
Chapter 3
3
Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires.
4
They will say, 'What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again? From before the times of our ancestors, everything has remained the same since the world was first created.'
5
They deliberately forget that God made the heavens long ago by the word of his command, and he brought the earth out from the water and surrounded it with water.
6
Then he used the water to destroy the ancient world with a mighty flood.
7
And by the same word, the present heavens and earth have been stored up for fire. They are being kept for the day of judgment, when ungodly people will be destroyed.
8
But you must not forget this one thing, dear friends: A day is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years is like a day.
English Standard Version
Chapter 3
3
knowing this first of all, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own sinful desires.
4
They will say, "Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things are continuing as they were from the beginning of creation."
5
For they deliberately overlook this fact, that the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed out of water and through water by the word of God,
6
and that by means of these the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished.
7
But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist are stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.
8
But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
New International Version
Chapter 3
3
Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires.
4
They will say, "Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation."
5
But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water.
6
By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed.
7
By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.
8
But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day.
New King James Version
Chapter 3
3
knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts,
4
and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as
they were
from the beginning of creation.”
5
For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water,
6
by which the world
that
then existed perished, being flooded with water.
7
But the heavens and the earth
which
are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
8
But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day
is
as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
