Peter continues: “According to their wish, this fact escapes their notice, that there were heavens from of old and an earth standing compactly out of water and in the midst of water by the word of God; and by those means the world of that time suffered destruction when it was deluged with water. ”
Pēteris turpinājumā raksta: ” Tīši tie negrib zināt, ka vecos laikos debesis bijušas un zeme, no ūdens un iekš ūdens pastāvēdama caur Dieva vārdu; caur ko tā laika pasaule tapa maitāta ūdensplūdos. ”
