Jude 1:3-17

31BelovedG27, while I was makingG4160 everyG3956 effortG4710 to writeG1125 you aboutG4012 our 2commonG2839 salvationG4991, I feltG2192 the necessityG318 to writeG1125 to you appealingG3870 that you 3contendG1864 earnestlyG1864 for 4the faithG4102 which was onceG530 for allG530 5handedG3860 downG3860 to 6the 7saintsG40. 4For certainG5100 personsG444 have 8creptG3921 in unnoticedG3921, thoseG3588 who were longG3819 beforehandG4270 910markedG4270 out for thisG3778 condemnationG2917, ungodlyG765 personsG765 who turnG3346 11the graceG5485 of our GodG2316 into 12licentiousnessG766 and 13denyG720 our onlyG3441 MasterG1203 and LordG2962, JesusG2424 ChristG5547.

5NowG1161 I desireG1014 to 14remindG5279 you, though 15you knowG3609 allG3956 thingsG3956 onceG530 for allG530, that 16the LordG2962, 17after savingG4982 a peopleG2992 out of the landG1093 of EgyptG125, 18subsequentlyG1208 destroyedG622 thoseG3588 who did not believeG4100. 6And 19angelsG32 who did not keepG5083 their ownG1438 domainG746, but abandonedG620 their properG2398 abodeG3613, He has 20keptG5083 in eternalG126 bondsG1199 underG5259 darknessG2217 for the judgmentG2920 of the greatG3173 dayG2250, 7justG5613 as 21SodomG4670 and GomorrahG1116 and the 22citiesG4172 aroundG4012 them, since they in the sameG3664 wayG5158 as theseG3778 indulgedG1608 in grossG1608 immoralityG1608 and 23wentG565 afterG3694 24strangeG2087 fleshG4561, are exhibitedG4295 as an 2526exampleG1164 in undergoingG5254 the 27punishmentG1349 of eternalG166 fireG4442.

8YetG3305 in the sameG3668 wayG3668 theseG3778 menG3778, alsoG2532 by dreamingG1797, 28defileG3392 the fleshG4561, and rejectG114 authorityG2963, and revileG987 29angelic majestiesG1391. 9But 30MichaelG3413 31the archangelG743, whenG3753 he disputedG1252 with the devilG1228 and arguedG1256 aboutG4012 32the bodyG4983 of MosesG3475, did not dareG5111 pronounceG2018 againstG2018 him a railingG988 judgmentG2920, but saidG3004, “33The LordG2962 rebukeG2008 you!” 10But 34theseG3778 menG3778 revileG987 the things whichG3745 they do not understandG3609; and 35the things whichG3745 they knowG1987 by instinctG5447, 36likeG5613 unreasoningG249 animalsG2226, by theseG3778 thingsG3778 they are 37destroyedG5351. 11WoeG3759 to them! For they have goneG4198 38the wayG3598 of CainG2535, and for payG3408 39they have rushedG1632 headlongG1632 into 40the errorG4106 of BalaamG903, and 41perishedG622 in the rebellionG485 of KorahG2879. 12TheseG3778 are the menG3778 who are 42hiddenG4694 reefsG4694 43in your loveG26 feastsG26 when they feastG4910 with you 44withoutG870 fearG870, caringG4165 for themselvesG1438; 45cloudsG3507 withoutG504 waterG504, 46carriedG3911 alongG3911 by windsG417; autumnG5352 treesG1186 withoutG175 fruitG175, 47doublyG1364 deadG599, 48uprootedG1610; 1349wildG66 wavesG2949 of the seaG2281, castingG1890 up 50their ownG1438 51shameG152 likeG1890 foamG1890; wanderingG4107 starsG792, 52for whomG3739 the 53blackG2217 darknessG4655 has been reservedG5083 foreverG165.

14It was alsoG2532 about theseG3778 men that 54EnochG1802, in the seventhG1442 generation from AdamG76, prophesiedG4395, sayingG3004, “55BeholdG2400, the LordG2962 cameG2064 with 56manyG3461 thousandsG3461 of His holyG40 onesG40, 1557to executeG4160 judgmentG2920 upon allG3956, and to convictG1651 allG3956 the ungodlyG765 of allG3956 their ungodlyG763 deedsG2041 whichG3739 they have doneG764 in an ungodlyG764 wayG764, and of allG3956 the harshG4642 thingsG4642 whichG3739 58ungodlyG763 sinnersG268 have spokenG2980 againstG2596 Him.” 16TheseG3778 are 59grumblersG1113, findingG3202 faultG3202, 60followingG4198 afterG2596 their own lustsG1939; 61they speakG2980 62arrogantlyG5246, flatteringG2296 peopleG4383 63for the sakeG5484 of gaining an advantageG5622.

17But you, 64belovedG27, 65ought to rememberG3403 the wordsG4487 that were spokenG4275 beforehandG4275 by 66the apostlesG652 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547,
