2 Peter 2:9-15
91then the LordG2962 knowsG3609 howG3609 to rescueG4506 the godlyG2152 from 2a trialG3986, and to keepG5083 the unrighteousG94 underG2849 punishmentG2849 for the 3dayG2250 of judgmentG2920, 10and especiallyG3122 thoseG3588 who 45indulgeG4198 the fleshG4561 in its corruptG3394 passionG1939, and 6despiseG2706 7authorityG2963.
8RecklessG5113, 9self-centeredG829, they 10speakG987 abusivelyG987 of angelic 11majestiesG1391 withoutG3756 tremblingG5141, 1112whereasG3699 angelsG32 who are greaterG3173 in mightG2479 and powerG1411 do not bringG5342 a demeaningG989 judgmentG2920 againstG2596 them beforeG3844 the LordG2962. 12But 13theseG3778, likeG5613 unreasoningG249 animalsG2226, 14bornG1080 as creaturesG5446 ofG5446 instinctG5446 to be capturedG259 and killedG5356, usingG987 abusiveG987 speechG987 whereG1722G3739 they haveG50 noG50 knowledgeG50, will in 15the destructionG5356 of thoseG3778 creatures alsoG2532 be destroyedG5351, 13suffering wrongG91 as 16the wagesG3408 of doingG93 wrongG93. They countG2233 it a pleasureG2237 to 17revelG5172 in the 18daytimeG2250. They are stainsG4696 and blemishesG3470, 19revelingG1792 in their 20deceptionsG539 as they 21feastG4910 with you, 14havingG2192 eyesG3788 fullG3324 of adulteryG3428 22that neverG180 ceaseG180 from sinG266, 23enticingG1185 24unstableG793 soulsG5590, havingG2192 heartsG2588 trainedG1128 in 25greedG4124, 26accursedG2671 childrenG5043; 15abandoningG2641 27the rightG2117 wayG3598, they have goneG4105 astrayG4105, having followedG1811 28the wayG3598 of BalaamG903, the son of BeorG961, whoG3739 lovedG25 29the 30rewardG3408 of unrighteousnessG93;
