    2to be mindful of the sayings said before by the holy prophets, and of the command of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour,

    3this first knowing, that there shall come in the latter end of the days scoffers, according to their own desires going on,

    4and saying, `Where is the promise of his presence? for since the fathers did fall asleep, all things so remain from the beginning of the creation;'

    5for this is unobserved by them willingly, that the heavens were of old, and the earth out of water and through water standing together by the word of God,

    6through which the then world, by water having been deluged, was destroyed;

    7and the present heavens and the earth, by the same word are treasured, for fire being kept to a day of judgment and destruction of the impious men.

    8And this one thing let not be unobserved by you, beloved, that one day with the Lord `is' as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day;
