3 Beloved this is now , the _ second letter I _ am_ writing to _ you_ all , in which I _ am_ awaking the sincere mind of _ you_ all in remembrance , 2 to _ be_ reminded of _ the messages having _ been_ previously_ spoken , by the holy prophets , and of _ the command of _ the master and saviour of _ the ambassadors of _ you_ all .
3 Knowing this first , that mockers will _ be_ coming in the _ last of _ the days with mocking , pursuing according _ to their own lusts of _ them , 4 and saying :
Where is the promise of _ the coming of _ him ?
From for that time the fathers were _ fallen_ asleep , all is _ continuing thus from the _ beginning of _ creation .
5 For/Because this is _ escaping_ notice them willing , that the _ heavens were anciently , and the _ earth having _ consisted out _ of water and through water by _ the message of _ the _ god , 6 through which the then world perished having _ been_ flooded in _ water .
7 But the now heavens and the earth , by _ the same message are having _ been_ stored_ up , for _ fire being _ kept to the _ day of _ judgment and destruction of _ the _ ungodly people .
8 But let _ this _ be_ escaping_ notice one not you _ all , beloved , that one day with the _ master is like a _ thousand years and a _ thousand , years are like one day .
9 the _ master is _ not _ slowing of _ his promise , as some are _ considering slowness , but he _ is_ being_ patient toward you _ all , not wishing any to _ perish , but all to to _ accept repentance .
10 But the _ day of _ the _ master will _ be_ coming like a _ thief , in which the heavens will _ be_ passing_ away vociferously , and elements being _ burned will _ be_ being_ destroyed , and the _ earth and the works in it will _ be_ being_ found .
11 all these thus being _ destroyed , what _ kind_ of people it _ is_ fitting you _ all to _ be_ being in holy conduct and devoutness , 12 expecting and hurrying the coming of _ the day of _ the _ god , because _ of which the _ heavens being _ burned , will _ be_ being_ destroyed , and the _ elements being _ burned , is _ being_ melted .
13 But we _ are_ waiting for _ new heavens and a _ new earth , according _ to the promise of _ him , in which righteousness is _ dwelling .
14 Therefore , beloved , expecting these , be _ earnest spotless and blameless to _ be_ found by _ him in peace .
15 And be _ considering the patience of _ the master of _ us , salvation , as also the beloved of _ us brother Paulos , according _ to the wisdom having _ been_ given to _ him , wrote to _ you_ all , 16 as also in all letters , speaking in them concerning these , among which is hard _ to_ understand some , which the ignorant and unstable are _ twisting as also the other scriptures , to their own destruction of _ them .
17 Therefore you _ all , beloved , knowing _ before be _ guarding , in _ order_ that you _ all_ may_ not _ fall_ from from _ your own steadfastness having _ been_ carried_ away with _ the deception of _ the lawless .
18 But be _ growing in grace , and in _ the _ knowledge of _ the master and saviour of _ us , Yaʸsous/(Yə hōshūˊa) chosen _ one/messiah .
To _ him be the glory both now and to the _ day of _ eternity .
Truly .
