The end of all things is coming
This refers to the end of the world at Christ's second coming and is spoken of as if it is physically coming closer in distance. Alternate translation: "will soon happen"
be of sound mind, and be sober in your thinking
These two phrases mean basically the same thing. Peter uses them to emphasize the need to think clearly about life since the end of the world is near.
be sober in your thinking
Here the word "sober" refers to mental clarity and alertness. See how you translated this in 1 Peter 1:13. Alternate translation: "control your thoughts" or "be careful about what you think"
