5For this they wilfully forget, that there were heavens from of old, and an earth compacted out of water and amidst water, by the word of God;
5For this they wilfully forget, that there were heavens from of old, and an earth compacted out of water and amidst water, by the word of God;
2 that ye should remember the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and the commandment of the Lord and Saviour through your apostles:
3 knowing this first, that in the last days mockers shall come with mockery, walking after their own lusts,

3:5for 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,
3:5For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
