2 Peter 3:5-6

KJV

NIV

5 For 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:
5 But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water.
6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
6 By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed.
