2 Peter 3:11 in Context — 2 Peter 3

9 Le Seigneur ne tarde pas dans l’accomplissement de la promesse, comme quelques-uns le croient; mais il use de patience envers vous, ne voulant pas qu’aucun périsse, mais voulant que tous arrivent à la repentance.

10 Le jour du Seigneur viendra comme un voleur; en ce jour, les cieux passeront avec fracas, les éléments embrasés se dissoudront, et la terre avec les œuvres qu’elle renferme sera consumée.

11 Puisque donc toutes ces choses doivent se dissoudre, quelles ne doivent pas être la sainteté de votre conduite et votre piété,

12 tandis que vous attendez et hâtez l’avènement du jour de Dieu, à cause duquel les cieux enflammés se dissoudront et les éléments embrasés se fondront!

13 Mais nous attendons, selon sa promesse, de nouveaux cieux et une nouvelle terre, où la justice habitera.
