2 Peter 2:7-16

7and if He 1rescuedG4506 righteousG1342 LotG3091, oppressedG2669 by the 2sensualG766 conductG391 of 3unprincipledG113 menG113 8(for by whatG990 he sawG990 and heardG189 that 4righteousG1342 manG1342, while livingG1460 amongG1722 them, feltG928 his righteousG1342 soulG5590 tormentedG928 dayG2250 afterG1537 dayG2250 by their lawlessG459 deedsG2041), 95then the LordG2962 knowsG3609 howG3609 to rescueG4506 the godlyG2152 from 6temptationG3986, and to keepG5083 the unrighteousG94 under punishmentG2849 for the 7dayG2250 of judgmentG2920, 10and especiallyG3122 thoseG3588 who 89indulgeG4198 the fleshG4561 in its corruptG3394 desiresG1939 and 10despiseG2706 authorityG2963.

DaringG5113, 11self-willedG829, they do not trembleG5141 when they 12revileG987 angelic 13majestiesG1391, 1114whereasG3699 angelsG32 who are greaterG3173 in mightG2479 and powerG1411 do not bringG5342 a revilingG989 judgmentG2920 againstG2596 them beforeG3844 the LordG2962. 12But 15theseG3778, likeG5613 unreasoningG249 animalsG2226, 16bornG1080 as creaturesG5446 of instinctG5446 to be capturedG259 and killedG5356, revilingG987 whereG1722G3739 they haveG50 noG50 knowledgeG50, will in 17the destructionG5356 of thoseG3778 creatures alsoG2532 be destroyedG5351, 13suffering wrongG91 as 18the wagesG3408 of doingG93 wrongG93. They countG2233 it a pleasureG2237 to 19revelG5172 in the 20daytimeG2250. They are stainsG4696 and blemishesG3470, 21revelingG1792 in their 22deceptionsG539, as they 23carouseG4910 with you, 14havingG2192 eyesG3788 fullG3324 of adulteryG3428 that neverG180 ceaseG180 from sinG266, 24enticingG1185 25unstableG793 soulsG5590, havingG2192 a heartG2588 trainedG1128 in 26greedG4124, 27accursedG2671 childrenG5043; 15forsakingG2641 28the rightG2117 wayG3598, they have goneG4105 astrayG4105, having followedG1811 29the wayG3598 of BalaamG903, the son of BeorG961, whoG3739 lovedG25 30the wagesG3408 of unrighteousnessG93; 16but he receivedG2192 a rebukeG1649 for his ownG2398 transgressionG3892, 31for a muteG880 donkeyG5268, speakingG5350 with a voiceG5456 of a manG444, restrainedG2967 the madnessG3913 of the prophetG4396.
