Jude 1:5-11

5Now I desire to 1remind you, though 2you know all things once for all, that 3the Lord, 4after saving a people out of the land of Egypt, 5subsequently destroyed those who did not believe. 6And 6angels who did not keep their own domain, but abandoned their proper abode, He has 7kept in eternal bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day, 7just as 8Sodom and Gomorrah and the 9cities around them, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and 10went after 11strange flesh, are exhibited as an 1213example in undergoing the 14punishment of eternal fire.

8Yet in the same way these men, also by dreaming, 15defile the flesh, and reject authority, and revile 16angelic majesties. 9But 17Michael 18the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about 19the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a railing judgment, but said, “20The Lord rebuke you!” 10But 21these men revile the things which they do not understand; and 22the things which they know by instinct, 23like unreasoning animals, by these things they are 24destroyed. 11Woe to them! For they have gone 25the way of Cain, and for pay 26they have rushed headlong into 27the error of Balaam, and 28perished in the rebellion of Korah.
