2 Peter 2:19-22

19promisingG1861 them freedomG1657 while they themselvesG846 are slavesG1401 of corruptionG5356; for 1by whatG3739 a manG5100 is overcomeG2274, by thisG3778 he is enslavedG1402.

20For ifG1487, after they have 2escapedG668 the defilementsG3393 of the worldG2889 by 3the knowledgeG1922 of the 4LordG2962 and SaviorG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, they are againG3825 5entangledG1707 in them and are overcomeG2274, 6the lastG2078 state has becomeG1096 worseG5501 for them than the firstG4413.

217For it would be betterG2909 for them not to have knownG1921 the wayG3598 of righteousnessG1343, thanG2228 having knownG1921 it, to turnG5290 awayG5290 from 8the holyG40 commandmentG1785 9handedG3860 on to them.

2210It has happenedG4819 to them according to the trueG227 proverbG3942, “11A dogG2965 returnsG1994 to its ownG2398 vomitG1829,” and, “A sowG5300, after washingG3068, returns to wallowingG2946 in the mireG1004.”
