New American Standard Bible 1995

Jude 1:4-7

4For certain persons have 1crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand 2 3marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn 4the grace of our God into 5licentiousness and 6deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

5Now I desire to 7remind you, though 8you know all things once for all, that 9the Lord, 10after saving a people out of the land of Egypt, 11subsequently destroyed those who did not believe. 6And 12angels who did not keep their own domain, but abandoned their proper abode, He has 13kept in eternal bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day, 7just as 14Sodom and Gomorrah and the 15cities around them, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and 16went after 17strange flesh, are exhibited as an 18 19example in undergoing the 20punishment of eternal fire.
