1But 1falseG5578 prophetsG5578 alsoG2532 aroseG1096 amongG1722 the peopleG2992, justG5613 as there will alsoG2532 be 2falseG5572 teachersG5572 3amongG1722 you, whoG3748 will 4secretlyG3919 introduceG3919 5destructiveG684 heresiesG139, evenG2532 6denyingG720 the 7MasterG1203 who 8boughtG59 them, bringingG1863 swiftG5031 destructionG684 upon themselvesG1438. 2ManyG4183 will followG1811 their 9sensualityG766, and becauseG1223 of them 10the wayG3598 of the truthG225 will be 11malignedG987; 3and in their 12greedG4124 they will 13exploitG1710 you with 14falseG4112 wordsG3056; 15their judgmentG2917 from longG1597 agoG1597 is not idleG691, and their destructionG684 is not asleepG3573.
4For 16ifG1487 GodG2316 did not spareG5339 angelsG32 when they sinnedG264, but castG5020 them into hellG5020 and 17committedG3860 them to pitsG4618 of darknessG2217, reservedG5083 for judgmentG2920; 5and did not spareG5339 18the ancientG744 worldG2889, but preservedG5442 19NoahG3575, a 20preacherG2783 of righteousnessG1343, with sevenG3590 othersG3590, when He broughtG1863 a 21floodG2627 upon the worldG2889 of the ungodlyG765; 6and if He 22condemnedG2632 the citiesG4172 of SodomG4670 and GomorrahG1116 to destructionG2692 by reducingG5077 them to ashesG5077, having madeG5087 them an 23exampleG5262 to those who wouldG3195 24liveG764 ungodlyG764 lives thereafterG3195; 7and if He 25rescuedG4506 righteousG1342 LotG3091, oppressedG2669 by the 26sensualG766 conductG391 of 27unprincipledG113 menG113
