This second epistle, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:
2
προειρημενων
4302
{V-RPP-GPN}
That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:
3
γινωσκοντες
1097
{V-PAP-NPM}
ελευσονται
2064
{V-FDI-3P}
πορευομενοι
4198
{V-PNP-NPM}
Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
4
λεγοντες
3004
{V-PAP-NPM}
εκοιμηθησαν
2837
{V-API-3P}
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
θελοντας
2309
{V-PAP-APM}
συνεστωσα
4921
{V-RAP-NSF}
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
κατακλυσθεις
2626
{V-APP-NSM}
Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
7
τεθησαυρισμενοι
2343
{V-RPP-NPM}
τηρουμενοι
5083
{V-PPP-NPM}
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
λανθανετω
2990
{V-PAM-3S}
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.
9
μακροθυμει
3114
{V-PAI-3S}
βουλομενος
1014
{V-PNP-NSM}
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10
παρελευσονται
3928
{V-FDI-3P}
καυσουμενα
2741
{V-PPP-NPN}
λυθησονται
3089
{V-FPI-3P}
κατακαησεται
2618
{V-2FPI-3S}
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11
λυομενων
3089
{V-PPP-GPN}
Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
12
προσδοκωντας
4328
{V-PAP-APM}
σπευδοντας
4692
{V-PAP-APM}
πυρουμενοι
4448
{V-PPP-NPM}
λυθησονται
3089
{V-FPI-3P}
καυσουμενα
2741
{V-PPP-NPN}
Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13
προσδοκωμεν
4328
{V-PAI-1P}
Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
14
προσδοκωντες
4328
{V-PAP-NPM}
σπουδασατε
4704
{V-AAM-2P}
Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
15
δοθεισαν
1325
{V-APP-ASF}
And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;
16
στρεβλουσιν
4761
{V-PAI-3P}
As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
17
προγινωσκοντες
4267
{V-PAP-NPM}
φυλασσεσθε
5442
{V-PMM-2P}
συναπαχθεντες
4879
{V-APP-NPM}
εκπεσητε
1601
{V-2AAS-2P}
Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness.
18
But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.
