* 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 . * 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 . * 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 . * Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved , what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness , * 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 ? * Nevertheless we , according to his promise , look for new heavens and a new earth , wherein dwelleth righteousness . * Wherefore , beloved , seeing that ye look for such things , be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace , without spot , and blameless .
