11. Because all these things are being destroyed in this way, what sort of people must you be in holy behavior and godliness,
12. while waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be destroyed by being burned up and the celestial bodies will melt as they are consumed by heat!
13. But according to his promise, we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness resides.
14. Therefore, dear friends, because you are waiting for these things, make every effort to be found at peace, spotless and unblemished in him.
