ThisG5026 secondG1208 epistleG1992, belovedG27, IG1125 nowG2235 writeG1125 unto youG5213; inG1722 both whichG3739 I stir upG1326 yourG5216 pureG1506 mindsG1271 by wayG1722 of remembranceG5280:
That ye may be mindfulG3415 of the wordsG4487 which were spoken beforeG4280 byG5259 the holyG40 prophetsG4396, andG2532 of the commandmentG1785 of usG2257 the apostlesG652 of the LordG2962 andG2532 SaviourG4990:
KnowingG1097 thisG5124 firstG4412, thatG3754 there shall comeG2064 inG1909 the lastG2078 daysG2250 scoffersG1703, walkingG4198 afterG2596 theirG846 ownG2398 lustsG1939,
AndG2532 sayingG3004, WhereG4226 isG2076 the promiseG1860 of hisG846 comingG3952? forG1063 sinceG575+G3739 the fathersG3962 fell asleepG2837, all thingsG3956 continueG3779+G1265 as they were fromG575 the beginningG746 of the creationG2937.
ForG1063 thisG5124 theyG846 willinglyG2309 are ignorant ofG2990, thatG3754 by the wordG3056 of GodG2316 the heavensG3772 wereG2258 of oldG1597, andG2532 the earthG1093 standingG4921 out ofG1537 the waterG5204 andG2532 inG1223 the waterG5204: {standing: Gr. consisting}
WherebyG1223+G3739 the worldG2889 that then wasG5119, being overflowedG2626 with waterG5204, perishedG622:
ButG1161 the heavensG3772 andG2532 the earthG1093, which are nowG3568, by the sameG846 wordG3056 areG1526 kept in storeG2343, reservedG5083 unto fireG4442 againstG1519 the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920 andG2532 perditionG684 of ungodlyG765 menG444.
ButG1161, belovedG27, beG2990 notG3361+G5209 ignorantG2990 of this oneG1520 thingG5124, thatG3754 oneG3391 dayG2250 is withG3844 the LordG2962 asG5613 a thousandG5507 yearsG2094, andG2532 a thousandG5507 yearsG2094 asG5613 oneG3391 dayG2250.
The LordG2962 isG1019 notG3756 slackG1019 concerning his promiseG1860, asG5613 some menG5100 countG2233 slacknessG1022; butG235 is longsufferingG3114 toG1519 us-wardG2248, notG3361 willingG1014 that anyG5100 should perishG622, butG235 that allG3956 should comeG5562 toG1519 repentanceG3341.
ButG1161 the dayG2250 of the LordG2962 will comeG2240 asG5613 a thiefG2812 inG1722 the nightG3571; inG1722 the whichG3739 the heavensG3772 shall pass awayG3928 with a great noiseG4500, andG1161 the elementsG4747 shall meltG3089 with fervent heatG2741, the earthG1093 alsoG2532 andG2532 the worksG2041 that are thereinG1722+G846 shall be burned upG2618.
Seeing thenG3767 that allG3956 these thingsG5130 shall be dissolvedG3089, what mannerG4217 of persons oughtG1163 yeG5209 to beG5225 inG1722 all holyG40 conversationG391 andG2532 godlinessG2150,
Looking forG4328 andG2532 hastingG4692 unto the comingG3952 of the dayG2250 of GodG2316, whereinG1223+G3739 the heavensG3772 being on fireG4448 shall be dissolvedG3089, andG2532 the elementsG4747 shall meltG5080 with fervent heatG2741? {hasting…: or, hasting the coming}
NeverthelessG1161 weG4328, according toG2596 hisG846 promiseG1862, look forG4328 newG2537 heavensG3772 andG2532 a newG2537 earthG1093, whereinG1722+G3739 dwellethG2730 righteousnessG1343.
WhereforeG1352, belovedG27, seeing that ye look forG4328 such thingsG5023, be diligentG4704 that ye may be foundG2147 of himG846 inG1722 peaceG1515, without spotG784, andG2532 blamelessG298.
AndG2532 accountG2233 that the longsufferingG3115 of ourG2257 LordG2962 is salvationG4991; even asG2531 ourG2257 belovedG27 brotherG80 PaulG3972 alsoG2532 according toG2596 the wisdomG4678 givenG1325 unto himG846 hath writtenG1125 unto youG5213;
AsG5613 alsoG2532 inG1722 allG3956 his epistlesG1992, speakingG2980 inG1722 themG846 ofG4012 these thingsG5130; inG1722 whichG3739 areG2076 some thingsG5100 hard to be understoodG1425, whichG3739 they that are unlearnedG261 andG2532 unstableG793 wrestG4761, asG5613 they do alsoG2532 the otherG3062 scripturesG1124, untoG4314 theirG846 ownG2398 destructionG684.
YeG5210 thereforeG3767, belovedG27, seeing ye know these things beforeG4267, bewareG5442 lestG3363 ye alsoG1601, being led awayG4879 with the errorG4106 of the wickedG113, fall fromG1601 your ownG2398 stedfastnessG4740.
ButG1161 growG837 inG1722 graceG5485, andG2532 in the knowledgeG1108 of ourG2257 LordG2962 andG2532 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. To himG846 be gloryG1391 bothG2532 nowG3568 andG2532 forG1519 everG165+G2250. AmenG281.

So thatG5620 yeG5209 come behindG5302 inG1722 noG3361+G3367 giftG5486; waiting forG553 the comingG602 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: {coming: Gr. revelation}
ButG1161 the dayG2250 of the LordG2962 will comeG2240 asG5613 a thiefG2812 inG1722 the nightG3571; inG1722 the whichG3739 the heavensG3772 shall pass awayG3928 with a great noiseG4500, andG1161 the elementsG4747 shall meltG3089 with fervent heatG2741, the earthG1093 alsoG2532 andG2532 the worksG2041 that are thereinG1722+G846 shall be burned upG2618.

Looking forG4327 that blessedG3107 hopeG1680, andG2532 the gloriousG1391 appearingG2015 of the greatG3173 GodG2316 andG2532 ourG2257 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547; {glorious…: Gr. the appearance of the glory of the great God, and of our Saviour Jesus Christ}
WhoG3739 shallG950 alsoG2532 confirmG950 youG5209 untoG2193 the endG5056, that ye may be blamelessG410 inG1722 the dayG2250 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
Our GodH430 shall comeH935, and shall not keep silenceH2790: a fireH784 shall devourH398 beforeH6440 him, and it shall be veryH3966 tempestuousH8175 round aboutH5439 him.
The wordH1697 that IsaiahH3470 the sonH1121 of AmozH531 sawH2372 concerning JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389.
And it shall come to pass in the lastH319 daysH3117, that the mountainH2022 of the LORD'SH3068 houseH1004 shall be establishedH3559 in the topH7218 of the mountainsH2022, and shall be exaltedH5375 above the hillsH1389; and all nationsH1471 shall flowH5102 unto it. {established: or, prepared}
And manyH7227 peopleH5971 shall goH1980 and sayH559, ComeH3212 ye, and let us go upH5927 to the mountainH2022 of the LORDH3068, to the houseH1004 of the GodH430 of JacobH3290; and he will teachH3384 us of his waysH1870, and we will walkH3212 in his pathsH734: for out of ZionH6726 shall go forthH3318 the lawH8451, and the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 from JerusalemH3389.
And he shall judgeH8199 among the nationsH1471, and shall rebukeH3198 manyH7227 peopleH5971: and they shall beatH3807 their swordsH2719 into plowsharesH855, and their spearsH2595 into pruninghooksH4211: nationH1471 shall not lift upH5375 swordH2719 against nationH1471, neither shall they learnH3925 warH4421 any more. {pruninghooks: or, scythes}
O houseH1004 of JacobH3290, comeH3212 ye, and let us walkH3212 in the lightH216 of the LORDH3068.
Therefore thou hast forsakenH5203 thy peopleH5971 the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, because they be replenishedH4390 from the eastH6924, and are soothsayersH6049 like the PhilistinesH6430, and they pleaseH5606 themselves in the childrenH3206 of strangersH5237. {from…: or, more than the} {please…: or, abound with the}
Their landH776 also is fullH4390 of silverH3701 and goldH2091, neither is there any endH7097 of their treasuresH214; their landH776 is also fullH4390 of horsesH5483, neither is there any endH7097 of their chariotsH4818:
Their landH776 also is fullH4390 of idolsH457; they worshipH7812 the workH4639 of their own handsH3027, that which their own fingersH676 have madeH6213:
And the mean manH120 boweth downH7817, and the great manH376 humblethH8213 himself: therefore forgiveH5375 them not.
EnterH935 into the rockH6697, and hideH2934 thee in the dustH6083, forH6440 fearH6343 of the LORDH3068, and for the gloryH1926 of his majestyH1347.
The loftyH1365 looksH5869 of manH120 shall be humbledH8213, and the haughtinessH7312 of menH582 shall be bowed downH7817, and the LORDH3068 alone shall be exaltedH7682 in that dayH3117.
For the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 shall be upon every one that is proudH1343 and loftyH7311, and upon every one that is lifted upH5375; and he shall be brought lowH8213:
And upon all the cedarsH730 of LebanonH3844, that are highH7311 and lifted upH5375, and upon all the oaksH437 of BashanH1316,
And upon all the highH7311 mountainsH2022, and upon all the hillsH1389 that are lifted upH5375,
And upon every highH1364 towerH4026, and upon every fencedH1219 wallH2346,
And upon all the shipsH591 of TarshishH8659, and upon all pleasantH2532 picturesH7914. {pleasant…: Heb. pictures of desire}
And the loftinessH1365 of manH120 shall be bowed downH7817, and the haughtinessH7312 of menH582 shall be made lowH8213: and the LORDH3068 alone shall be exaltedH7682 in that dayH3117.
And the idolsH457 he shall utterlyH3632 abolishH2498. {he…: or, shall utterly pass away}
And they shall goH935 into the holesH4631 of the rocksH6697, and into the cavesH4247 of the earthH6083, forH6440 fearH6343 of the LORDH3068, and for the gloryH1926 of his majestyH1347, when he arisethH6965 to shake terriblyH6206 the earthH776. {of the earth: Heb. of the dust}
In that dayH3117 a manH120 shall castH7993 his idolsH457 of silverH3701, and his idolsH457 of goldH2091, which they made each one for himselfH6213 to worshipH7812, to the molesH2661+H6512 and to the batsH5847; {his idols of silver…: Heb. the idols of his silver, etc} {each…: or, for him}
To goH935 into the cleftsH5366 of the rocksH6697, and into the topsH5585 of the ragged rocksH5553, forH6440 fearH6343 of the LORDH3068, and for the gloryH1926 of his majestyH1347, when he arisethH6965 to shake terriblyH6206 the earthH776.
CeaseH2308 ye from manH120, whose breathH5397 is in his nostrilsH639: for wherein is he to be accounted ofH2803?
KeepG5083 yourselvesG1438 inG1722 the loveG26 of GodG2316, looking forG4327 the mercyG1656 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 untoG1519 eternalG166 lifeG2222.
Being confidentG3982 of thisG5124 very thingG846, thatG3754 he which hath begunG1728 a goodG18 workG2041 inG1722 youG5213 will performG2005 it untilG891 the dayG2250 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547: {perform: or, finish}
And all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064 shall be dissolvedH4743, and the heavensH8064 shall be rolled togetherH1556 as a scrollH5612: and all their hostH6635 shall fall downH5034, as the leafH5929 falleth offH5034 from the vineH1612, and as a fallingH5034 fig from the fig treeH8384.
OhH3863 that thou wouldest rendH7167 the heavensH8064, that thou wouldest come downH3381, that the mountainsH2022 might flow downH2151 at thy presenceH6440,
As when the meltingH2003 fireH784 burnethH6919, the fireH784 causeth the watersH4325 to boilH1158, to make thy nameH8034 knownH3045 to thine adversariesH6862, that the nationsH1471 may trembleH7264 at thy presenceH6440! {the melting…: Heb. the fire of meltings}
When thou didstH6213 terrible thingsH3372 which we lookedH6960 not for, thou camest downH3381, the mountainsH2022 flowed downH2151 at thy presenceH6440.
For since the beginning of the worldH5769 men have not heardH8085, nor perceived by the earH238, neither hath the eyeH5869 seenH7200, O GodH430, besideH2108 thee, what he hath preparedH6213 for him that waitethH2442 for him. {seen…: or, seen a God beside thee, which doeth so for him, etc}
Thou meetestH6293 him that rejoicethH7797 and workethH6213 righteousnessH6664, those that rememberH2142 thee in thy waysH1870: behold, thou art wrothH7107; for we have sinnedH2398: in those is continuanceH5769, and we shall be savedH3467.
But we are all as an uncleanH2931 thing, and all our righteousnessesH6666 are as filthyH5708 ragsH899; and we all do fadeH5034+H1101 as a leafH5929; and our iniquitiesH5771, like the windH7307, have taken us awayH5375.
And there is none that callethH7121 upon thy nameH8034, that stirreth upH5782 himself to take holdH2388 of thee: for thou hast hidH5641 thy faceH6440 from us, and hast consumedH4127 us, becauseH3027 of our iniquitiesH5771. {consumed: Heb. melted} {because: Heb. by the hand}
But now, O LORDH3068, thou art our fatherH1; we are the clayH2563, and thou our potterH3335; and we all are the workH4639 of thy handH3027.
Be not wrothH7107 very soreH3966, O LORDH3068, neither rememberH2142 iniquityH5771 for everH5703: behold, seeH5027, we beseech thee, we are all thy peopleH5971.
Thy holyH6944 citiesH5892 are a wildernessH4057, ZionH6726 is a wildernessH4057, JerusalemH3389 a desolationH8077.
Our holyH6944 and our beautifulH8597 houseH1004, where our fathersH1 praisedH1984 thee, is burned upH8316 with fireH784: and all our pleasant thingsH4261 are laid wasteH2723.
Wilt thou refrainH662 thyself for these things, O LORDH3068? wilt thou hold thy peaceH2814, and afflictH6031 us very soreH3966?
AndG2532 the starsG792 of heavenG3772 fellG4098 untoG1519 the earthG1093, even asG5613 a fig treeG4808 castethG906 herG846 untimely figsG3653, when she is shakenG4579 ofG5259 a mightyG3173 windG417. {untimely figs: or, green figs}
