2 Peter 2:10-19
10and especiallyG3122 thoseG3588 who 12indulgeG4198 the fleshG4561 in its corruptG3394 passionG1939, and 3despiseG2706 4authorityG2963.
5RecklessG5113, 6self-centeredG829, they 7speakG987 abusivelyG987 of angelic 8majestiesG1391 withoutG3756 tremblingG5141, 119whereasG3699 angelsG32 who are greaterG3173 in mightG2479 and powerG1411 do not bringG5342 a demeaningG989 judgmentG2920 againstG2596 them beforeG3844 the LordG2962. 12But 10theseG3778, likeG5613 unreasoningG249 animalsG2226, 11bornG1080 as creaturesG5446 ofG5446 instinctG5446 to be capturedG259 and killedG5356, usingG987 abusiveG987 speechG987 whereG1722G3739 they haveG50 noG50 knowledgeG50, will in 12the destructionG5356 of thoseG3778 creatures alsoG2532 be destroyedG5351, 13suffering wrongG91 as 13the wagesG3408 of doingG93 wrongG93. They countG2233 it a pleasureG2237 to 14revelG5172 in the 15daytimeG2250. They are stainsG4696 and blemishesG3470, 16revelingG1792 in their 17deceptionsG539 as they 18feastG4910 with you, 14havingG2192 eyesG3788 fullG3324 of adulteryG3428 19that neverG180 ceaseG180 from sinG266, 20enticingG1185 21unstableG793 soulsG5590, havingG2192 heartsG2588 trainedG1128 in 22greedG4124, 23accursedG2671 childrenG5043; 15abandoningG2641 24the rightG2117 wayG3598, they have goneG4105 astrayG4105, having followedG1811 25the wayG3598 of BalaamG903, the son of BeorG961, whoG3739 lovedG25 26the 27rewardG3408 of unrighteousnessG93; 16but he receivedG2192 a rebukeG1649 for his ownG2398 offenseG3892, 28for a muteG880 donkeyG5268, speakingG5350 with a humanG444 voiceG5456, restrainedG2967 the insanityG3913 of the prophetG4396.
17TheseG3778 are 29springsG4077 withoutG504 waterG504 and mistsG3658 drivenG1643 by a stormG2978, 30for whomG3739 the 31blackG2217 darknessG4655 has been reservedG5083. 18For, while speakingG5350 outG5350 32arrogantG5246 words of noG3153 33valueG3153 they 34enticeG1185 by fleshlyG4561 desiresG1939, by 35indecentG766 behaviorG766, thoseG3588 who barelyG3643 36escapeG668 from the ones who liveG390 in errorG4106, 19promisingG1861 them freedomG1657 while they themselvesG846 are slavesG1401 of corruptionG5356; for 37by whatG3739 anyoneG5100 isG2274 overcomeG2274, by thisG3778 he is enslavedG1402.
