2 Peter 3:7 in Context — 2 Peter 3
5 Porque eles ignoram isto por sua própria vontade, que pela palavra de Deus desde os [tempos] antigos [é que] foram os céus, e [que] a terra [saiu] da água, e sobre a água continua.
6 Pelas quais o mundo anterior foi destruído, coberto com as águas do dilúvio.
7 E os céus e a terra de agora, pela mesma palavra estão reservados, e são guardados para o fogo até o dia do juízo, e da perdição das pessoas ímpias.
8 Mas amados, desta uma coisa não ignoreis: que um dia para o Senhor [é] como mil anos, e mil anos como um dia.
9 O Senhor não é tardio [em sua] promessa (como alguns [a] consideram tardia); mas ele é paciente para conosco, não querendo que alguns pereçam, mas sim que todos venham ao arrependimento.
