2 Peter 3:12-14
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
12 While you wait and earnestly long for (expect and hasten) the coming of the day of God by reason of which the flaming heavens will be dissolved, and the [[a]material] elements [of the universe] will flare and melt with fire?(A)
13 But we look for new heavens and a new earth according to His promise, in which righteousness (uprightness, freedom from sin, and right standing with God) is to abide.(B)
14 So, beloved, since you are expecting these things, be eager to be found by Him [at His coming] without spot or blemish and at peace [in serene confidence, [b]free from fears and agitating passions and moral conflicts].
