Jude 1:5-11

5Now I want to 1remind you, though 2you know everything once and for all, that 3the Lord, 4after saving a people out of the land of Egypt, 5subsequently destroyed those who did not believe. 6And 6angels who did not keep their own domain but abandoned their proper dwelling place, these He has 7kept in eternal restraints under darkness for the judgment of the great day, 7just as 8Sodom and Gomorrah and the 9cities around them, since they in the same way as these angels indulged in sexual perversion and 10went after 11strange flesh, are exhibited as an 1213example in undergoing the 14punishment of eternal fire.

8Yet in the same way these people also, dreaming, 15defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak abusively of angelic 16majesties. 9But 17Michael 18the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about 19the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him an abusive judgment, but said, “20The Lord rebuke you!” 10But 21these people disparage all the things that they do not understand; and 22all the things that they know by instinct, 23like unreasoning animals, by these things they are destroyed. 11Woe to them! For they have gone 24the way of Cain, and for pay 25they have given themselves up to 26the error of Balaam, and 27perished in the rebellion of Korah.
