2 Peter 2:21-22

211For it would be betterG2909 for them not to have knownG1921 the wayG3598 of righteousnessG1343, thanG2228 having knownG1921 it, to turnG5290 awayG5290 from 2the holyG40 commandmentG1785 3handedG3860 on to them.

224It has happenedG4819 to them according to the trueG227 proverbG3942, “5A dogG2965 returnsG1994 to its ownG2398 vomitG1829,” and, “A sowG5300, after washingG3068, returns to wallowingG2946 in the mireG1004.”
