2 Peter 3:7 YLT

⁵  for 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,

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

⁷  and 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.

⁸  And 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;

⁹  the Lord is not slow in regard to the promise, as certain count slowness, but is long-suffering to us, not counselling any to be lost but all to pass on to reformation,
