G3588–ὁ–ho

knowing this first, that in the last days mockers will come, walking after their own lusts,

τῶν tōn “of the”τὰς tas “<the>”

and saying, "Where is the promise of his coming? For, from the day that the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation."

ἡ hē “the”τῆς tēs “of the”οἱ hoi “the”

For this they willfully forget, that there were heavens from of old, and an earth formed out of water and amid water, by the word of God;

τῷ tō “by the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

by which means the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished.

ὁ ho “the”

But the heavens that now are, and the earth, by the same word have been stored up for fire, being reserved against the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

οἱ hoi “<the>”ἡ hē “the”τῷ tō “by the”τῶν tōn “<the>”

The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

ὁ ho “the”τῆς tēs “the”

But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

ἡ hē “the”οἱ hoi “the”τὰ ta “the”

looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, by reason of which the heavens being on fire will be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?

τὴν tēn “the”τῆς tēs “of the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

But, according to his promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth, in which dwells righteousness.

τὸ to “the”

Regard the patience of our Lord as salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also, according to the wisdom given to him, wrote to you;

τὴν tēn “the”τοῦ tou “of the”ὁ ho “the”τὴν tēn “the”

as also in all of his letters, speaking in them of these things. In those are some things hard to be understood, which the ignorant and unsettled twist, as they also do to the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

ταῖς tais “the”οἱ hoi “the”τὰς tas “the”τὴν tēn “the”

You therefore, beloved, knowing these things beforehand, beware lest, being carried away with the error of the wicked, you fall from your own steadfastness.

τῇ tēa “by the”τῶν tōn “of the”τοῦ tou “the”

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.

τοῦ tou “of the”ἡ hē “the”

That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life

τοῖς tois “with the”αἱ hai “the”τοῦ tou “the”τῆς tēs “<the>”

(and the life was revealed, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the life, the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us);

ἡ hē “the”τὴν tēn “the”τὴν tēn “<the>”τὸν ton “the”

that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son, Jesus Christ.

ἡ hē “the”ἡ hē “<the>”τοῦ tou “the”τοῦ tou “the”

And we write these things to you, that our joy may be fulfilled.

ἡ hē “the”

This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

ἡ hē “the”ὁ ho “<the>”

If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and don't tell the truth.

τῷ tō “the”τὴν tēn “the”

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.

τῷ tō “the”τῷ tō “the”τὸ to “the”τοῦ tou “the”

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

ἡ hē “the”

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

τὰς tas “the”τὰς tas “<the>”

If we say that we haven't sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

ὁ ho “the”

My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have a Counselor with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous.

τὸν ton “the”

And he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.

τῶν tōn “the”τῶν tōn “those”τοῦ tou “the”
