4ForG1063 there areG3921 certainG5100 menG444 crept in unawaresG3921, who wereG4270 before of oldG3819 ordainedG4270 toG1519 thisG3778 condemnationG3588G2917, ungodly menG765, turningG3346 the graceG5485 ofG3588G2316 ourG1473 GodG3588G2316 intoG1519 lasciviousnessG766, andG2532 denyingG720 theG2316 onlyG3441 LordG1203 GodG2316, andG2532 ourG1473 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 5I willG1014 thereforeG1161 putG5279 youG4771 in remembranceG5279, thoughG1492 yeG4771 onceG530 knewG1492 thisG3778, how thatG3754 the LordG3588G2962, having savedG4982 the peopleG2992 out ofG1537 the landG1093 of EgyptG125, afterwardG1208 destroyedG622 them that believedG4100 notG3361. 6AndG5037 the angelsG32 which keptG5083 notG3361 theirG1438 first estateG746, butG235 leftG620 their ownG2398 habitationG3613, he hath reservedG5083 inG1199 everlastingG126 chainsG1199 underG5259 darknessG2217 untoG1519 the judgmentG2920 of theG2250 greatG3173 dayG2250. 7Even asG5613 SodomG4670 andG2532 GomorrhaG1116, andG2532 the citiesG4172 aboutG4012 themG846 inG5158 likeG3664 mannerG5158, giving themselves over to fornicationG1608, andG2532 goingG565 afterG3694 strangeG2087 fleshG4561, are set forthG4295 for an exampleG1164, sufferingG5254 the vengeanceG1349 ofG4442 eternalG166 fireG4442. 8LikewiseG3668 alsoG2532 theseG3778 filthy dreamersG1797 defileG3392 the fleshG4561, despiseG114 dominionG2963, andG1161 speak evilG987 of dignitiesG1391. 9YetG1161 MichaelG3413 the archangelG3588G743, whenG3753 contendingG1252 with the devilG1228 he disputedG1256 aboutG4012 the bodyG4983 of MosesG3588G3475, durstG5111 notG3756 bring against himG2018 aG2920 railingG988 accusationG2920, butG235 saidG3004, The LordG2962 rebukeG2008 theeG4771. 10ButG3303 theseG3778 speak evilG987 of those things whichG3745 they knowG1492 notG3756: butG1161 whatG3745 they knowG1987 naturallyG5447, asG5613 bruteG249 beastsG2226, inG1722 those thingsG3778 they corrupt themselvesG5351. 11WoeG3759 unto themG846! forG3754 they have goneG4198 in the wayG3588G3598 of CainG2535, andG2532 ran greedilyG1632 after the errorG3588G4106 of BalaamG903 for rewardG3408, andG2532 perishedG622 in the gainsayingG3588G485 of KorahG2879. 12TheseG3778 areG1510 spotsG4694 inG1722 yourG4771 feasts of charityG3588G26, when they feast withG4910 youG4771, feedingG4165 themselvesG1438 without fearG870: cloudsG3507 they are without waterG504, carried aboutG4064 ofG5259 windsG417; treesG1186 whose fruit witherethG5352, without fruitG175, twiceG1364 deadG599, plucked up by the rootsG1610; 13RagingG66 wavesG2949 of the seaG2281, foaming outG1890 their ownG1438 shameG152; wanderingG4107 starsG792, to whomG3739 is reservedG5083 the blacknessG3588G2217 of darknessG3588G4655 forG1519 everG3588G165. 14AndG1161 EnochG1802 alsoG2532, the seventhG1442 fromG575 AdamG76, prophesiedG4395 of theseG3778, sayingG3004, BeholdG3708, the LordG2962 comethG2064 withG1722 ten thousandsG3461 ofG40 hisG846 saintsG40, 15To executeG4160 judgmentG2920 uponG2596 allG3956, andG2532 to convinceG1827 allG3956 that are ungodlyG765 among themG846 ofG4012 allG3956 theirG846 ungodlyG763 deedsG3588G2041 whichG3739 they have ungodly committedG764, andG2532 ofG4012 allG3956 their hardG4642 speeches whichG3739 ungodlyG765 sinnersG268 have spokenG2980 againstG2596 himG846. 16TheseG3778 areG1510 murmurersG1113, complainersG3202, walkingG4198 afterG2596 their ownG846 lustsG3588G1939; andG2532 theirG846 mouthG3588G4750 speakethG2980 great swellingG5246 words, havingG2296 men’s personsG4383 in admirationG2296 because ofG5484 advantageG5622. 17ButG1161, belovedG27, rememberG3403 yeG4771 the wordsG3588G4487 which were spoken beforeG4302 ofG5259 the apostlesG3588G652 ofG3588G2962 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547; 18How thatG3754 they toldG3004 youG4771 there should beG1510 mockersG1703 inG1722 theG5550 lastG2078 timeG5550, who should walkG4198 afterG2596 their ownG1438 ungodlyG3588G763 lustsG1939. 19TheseG3778 beG1510 they who separateG592 themselvesG1438, sensualG5591, havingG2192 notG3361 the SpiritG4151.
20ButG1161 yeG4771, belovedG27, building upG2026 yourselvesG1438 onG4102 yourG4771 most holyG40 faithG4102, prayingG4336 inG1722 theG4151 HolyG40 GhostG4151, 21KeepG5083 yourselvesG1438 inG1722 the loveG26 of GodG2316, looking forG4327 the mercyG3588G1656 ofG3588G2962 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 untoG1519 eternalG166 lifeG2222.

24NowG1161 unto him that is ableG1410 to keepG5442 youG4771 from fallingG679, andG2532 to presentG2476 you faultlessG299 before the presenceG2714 ofG3588G1391 hisG846 gloryG3588G1391 withG1722 exceeding joyG20, 25To theG2316 onlyG3441 wiseG4680 GodG2316 ourG1473 SaviourG4990, be gloryG1391 andG2532 majestyG3172, dominionG2904 andG2532 authorityG1849, bothG2532 nowG3568 andG2532 everG3588G165.
