2 Peter 3:7-9
Tree of Life Version
2 Peter 3:7-9
Tree of Life Version
[a] 7 But by the same word the present heavens and earth are being reserved for fire—kept until the Day of Judgment and the destruction of ungodly people.[b]
8 But don’t forget this one thing, loved ones, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like one day. [c] 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, as some consider slowness.[d] Rather, He is being patient toward you—not wanting anyone to perish, but for all to come to repentance.
