Original 1611 King James Bible (KJV)

2 Peter 3

1 He assureth them of the certainty of Christ's coming to judgment, against those scorners who dispute against it: 8 warning the godly, for the long patience of God, to hasten their repentance. 10 He describeth also the manner how the world shall be destroyed: 11 exhorting them, from the expectation thereof, to all holiness of life: 15 and again, to think the patience of God to tend to their salvation, as Paul wrote to them in his epistles.

 3:1 ¶ This 5026 second 1208 Epistle 1992 (beloued) 27 I y1125 z0 now 2235 write 1125 z5719 vnto you, 5213 in 1722 both which 3739 I stir vp 1326 z5719 your 5216 pure 1506 mindes 1271 by way y1722 of x1722 remembrance: 5280

 3:2 That yee may be mindfull 3415 z5683 of the x3588 wordes 4487 which were spoken before 4280 z5772 by 5259 the x3588 holy 40 Prophets, 4396 and 2532 of the x3588 Commandement 1785 of vs 2257 the x3588 Apostles 652 of the x3588 Lord 2962 and 2532 Sauiour: 4990

 3:3 Knowing 1097 z5723 this 5124 first, 4412 that 3754 there shall come 2064 z5695 in 1909 the last 2078 dayes 2250 scoffers, 1703 walking 4198 z5740 after 2596 their y846 x848 owne 2398 lusts, 1939

 3:4 And 2532 saying, 3004 z5723 Where 4226 is 2076 z5748 the x3588 promise 1860 of his 846 comming? 3952 For 1063 since 575 3739 the x3588 fathers 3962 fell asleepe, 2837 z5681 all things 3956 continue 1265 y3779 z5719 as x3779 they were fro 575 the beginning 746 of the creation. 2937

 3:5 For 1063 this 5124 they 846 willingly 2309 z5723 are ignorant of, 2990 z5719 that 3754 by the x3588 word 3056 of God 2316 the heauens 3772 were 2258 z5713 of olde, 1597 and 2532 the earth 1093 standing x4921 out y4921 z5761 of 1537 the water, 5204 and 2532 in 1223 the water, 5204

 3:6 Whereby 1223 3739 the x3588 world 2889 that then x5119 was, y5119 being ouerflowed 2626 z5685 with water, 5204 perished. 622 z5639

 3:7 But 1161 the x3588 heauens 3772 and 2532 the x3588 earth 1093 which are now, 3568 by the x3588 same 846 word 3056 are 1526 z5748 kept in store, 2343 z5772 reserued 5083 z5746 vnto fire 4442 against 1519 the day 2250 of Iudgement, 2920 and 2532 perdition 684 of vngodly 765 men. 444

 3:8 But 1161 (beloued) 27 bee y2990 z0 not y3361 y5209 ignorant 2990 z5720 x3361 of this x5124 one y1520 thing, y5124 x1520 that 3754 one 3391 day 2250 is with 3844 the Lord 2962 as 5613 a thousand 5507 yeeres, 2094 and 2532 a thousand 5507 yeeres 2094 as 5613 one 3391 day. 2250

 3:9 The x3588 Lord 2962 is y1019 z0 not y3756 slacke 1019 z5719 x3756 cocerning his promise 1860 (as 5613 some men 5100 count 2233 z5736 slacknesse) 1022 but 235 is long-suffring 3114 z5719 to 1519 vs-ward, 2248 not 3361 willing 1014 z5740 that any 5100 should perish, 622 z5641 but 235 that all 3956 should come 5562 z5658 to 1519 repentance. 3341

 3:10 But 1161 the x3588 day 2250 of the Lord 2962 wil come 2240 z5692 as 5613 a thiefe 2812 in 1722 the night, 3571 in 1722 the which 3739 the x3588 heauens 3772 shall passe away 3928 z5695 with a great noise, 4500 and 1161 the Elements 4747 shall melt 3089 z5701 with feruent heate, 2741 z5746 the earth 1093 also 2532 and 2532 the x3588 works 2041 that are therin 1722 846 shalbe burnt vp. 2618 z5691

 3:11 Seeing then 3767 that all 3956 these things 5130 shall be dissolued, 3089 z5746 What maner 4217 of persons ought 1163 z5748 ye 5209 to be 5225 z5721 in 1722 all holy 40 conuersation, 391 and 2532 godlinesse, 2150

 3:12 Looking for 4328 z5723 and 2532 hasting 4692 z5723 vnto the x3588 comming 3952 of the x3588 day 2250 of God, 2316 wherein 1223 3739 the heauens 3772 being on fire 4448 z5746 shalbe dissolued, 3089 z5701 and 2532 the Elements 4747 shall melt y5080 z5743 x2741 with feruent heat. y2741 z5746 x5080

 3:13 Neuerthelesse 1161 wee, y4328 z0 according x2596 to y2596 his 846 promise, 1862 looke for 4328 z5719 new 2537 heauens, 3772 and 2532 a new 2537 earth, 1093 wherein 1722 3739 dwelleth 2730 z5719 righteousnesse. 1343

 3:14 Wherefore 1352 (beloued) 27 seeing that ye looke for 4328 z5723 such things, 5023 be diligent 4704 z5657 that ye may be found 2147 z5683 of him 846 in 1722 peace, 1515 without spot, 784 and 2532 blamelesse. 298

 3:15 And 2532 account 2233 z5737 that the x3588 long suffering 3115 of the 2257 Lord 2962 is saluation, 4991 euen as y2531 x253 our 2257 beloued 27 brother 80 Paul 3972 also, 2532 according x2596 to y2596 the x3588 wisedome 4678 giuen 1325 z5685 vnto him, 846 hath written 1125 z5656 vnto you. 5213

 3:16 As 5613 also 2532 in 1722 all 3956 his Epistles, 1992 speaking 2980 z5723 in 1722 them 846 of 4012 these things, 5130 in 1722 which 3739 are 2076 z5748 some things 5100 hard to be vnderstood, 1425 which 3739 they that are vnlearned 261 and 2532 vnstable 793 wrest, 4761 z5719 as 5613 they doe also 2532 the x3588 other 3062 Scriptures, 1124 vnto 4314 their y846 x848 owne 2398 destruction. 684

 3:17 Ye 5210 therefore, 3767 beloued, 27 seeing yee know [these things] before, 4267 z5723 beware 5442 z5732 lest 3363 yee also y1601 z0 being led away y4879 z5685 with x4879 the x3588 errour 4106 of the x3588 wicked, 113 fall from 1601 z5632 your owne 2398 stedfastnesse. 4740

 3:18 But 1161 growe 837 z5720 in 1722 grace, 5485 and 2532 in the knowledge 1108 of our 2257 Lord 2962 and 2532 Sauiour 4990 Iesus 2424 Christ: 5547 to him 846 be glory 1391 both 2532 now 3568 and 2532 for y1519 euer. 165 2250 x1519 Amen. 281
