11. Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what kind of people ought you to be? In behavior and in piety, be holy,
12. waiting for, and hurrying toward, the advent of the day of the Lord, by which the burning heavens shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt from the heat of the fire.
13. Yet truly, in accord with his promises, we are looking forward to the new heavens and the new earth, in which justice lives.
14. Therefore, most beloved, while awaiting these things, be diligent, so that you may be found to be immaculate and unassailable before him, in peace.
