1: There were_G1096 however_G1161 also_G2532 false prophets_G5578 among_G1722 the_G3588 people,_G2992 as_G5613 also_G2532 among_G1722 you_G4771 there will be_G1510 false teachers,_G5572 who_G3748 will stealthily introduce_G3919 heresies_G0139 destructive,_G0684 even_G2532 the_G3588 having bought_G0059 them_G0846 Master_G1203 denying,_G0720 bringing upon_G1863 themselves_G1438 swift_G5031 destruction._G0684

2: And_G2532 many_G4183 will follow after_G1811 their_G0846 -_G3588 sensuality,_G0766 through_G1223 whom_G3739 the_G3588 way_G3598 of the_G3588 truth_G0225 will be maligned._G0987

3: And_G2532 through_G1722 covetousness_G4124 with fabricated_G4112 words_G3056 you_G4771 they will exploit,_G1710 for whom_G3739 the_G3588 judgment_G2917 of long ago_G1597 not_G3756 is idle,_G0691 and_G2532 the_G3588 destruction_G0684 of them_G0846 not_G3756 slumbers._G3573

4: If_G1487 for_G1063 -_G3588 God_G2316 [the] angels_G0032 having sinned,_G0264 not_G3756 spared,_G5339 but_G0235 in chains_G4577 of gloomy darkness_G2217 having cast [them] down to Tartarus,_G5020 delivered [them],_G3860 for_G1519 judgment_G2920 being kept;_G5083

5: and_G2532 [the] ancient_G0744 world_G2889 not_G3756 He spared,_G5339 but_G0235 one of eight,_G3590 Noah_G3575 of righteousness_G1343 a herald_G2783 preserved,_G5442 [the] flood upon_G2627 [the] world_G2889 of [the] ungodly_G0765 having brought in;_G1863

6: and_G2532 [the] cities_G4172 of Sodom_G4670 and_G2532 Gomorrah_G1116 having reduced to ashes,_G5077 to destruction_G2692 He condemned [them],_G2632 an example_G5262 of what is coming on_G3195 the ungodly_G0765 having set;_G5087

7: and_G2532 righteous_G1342 Lot,_G3091 being distressed_G2669 by_G5259 the_G3588 of the_G3588 lawless_G0113 in_G1722 sensuality_G0766 conduct,_G0391 He rescued—_G4506

8: through seeing_G0990 for_G1063 and_G2532 hearing_G0189 that_G3588 righteous [man],_G1342 dwelling_G1460 among_G1722 them_G0846 day_G2250 after_G1537 day,_G2250 in [his] soul_G5590 righteous_G1342 with [their] lawless_G0459 deeds_G2041 was tormented—_G0928

9: [then] knows_G1492 [the] Lord_G2962 [the] devout_G2152 out of_G1537 temptation_G3986 to deliver;_G4506 [the] unrighteous_G0094 then_G1161 unto_G1519 [the] day_G2250 of judgment_G2920 being punished_G2849 to keep;_G5083

10: especially_G3122 then_G1161 those_G3588 after_G3694 [the] flesh_G4561 in_G1722 [the] passion_G1939 of defilement_G3394 walking_G4198 and_G2532 authority_G2963 despising._G2706 Bold,_G5113 self-willed,_G0829 glorious ones_G1391 not_G3756 they tremble_G5141 blaspheming,_G0987

11: whereas_G3699 angels,_G0032 in strength_G2479 and_G2532 power_G1411 greater_G3173 being,_G1510 not_G3756 do bring_G5342 against_G2596 them_G0846 before_G3844 [the] Lord_G2962 a reviling_G0989 judgment._G2920

12: These_G3778 however,_G1161 like_G5613 irrational_G0249 animals,_G2226 having been born_G1080 as creatures of instinct_G5446 for_G1519 capture_G0259 and_G2532 destruction,_G5356 in_G1722 what_G3739 they are ignorant of,_G0050 blaspheming,_G0987 in_G1722 the_G3588 destruction_G5356 of them_G0846 also_G2532 will be destroyed,_G5351

13: suffering wrong_G0091 [as the] wage_G3408 of unrighteousness;_G0093 [as] pleasure_G2237 esteeming_G2233 -_G3588 in_G1722 daytime_G2250 carousal;_G5172 blots_G4696 and_G2532 blemishes,_G3470 reveling_G1792 in_G1722 the_G3588 deceptions_G0539 of them,_G0846 feasting with_G4910 you;_G4771

14: eyes_G3788 having_G2192 full_G3324 of adultery,_G3428 and_G2532 unceasing_G0180 from sin,_G0266 enticing_G1185 souls_G5590 unestablished;_G0793 a heart_G2588 having been exercised_G1128 in craving_G4124 having—_G2192 of a curse_G2671 children!_G5043

15: Having left_G2641 [the] straight_G2117 way,_G3598 they have gone astray,_G4105 having followed_G1811 in the_G3588 way_G3598 -_G3588 of Balaam_G0903 -_G3588 [son] of Bosor,_G1007 who_G3739 [the] wage_G3408 of unrighteousness_G0093 loved;_G0025

16: reproof_G1649 however_G1161 he had_G2192 for his own_G2398 transgression_G3892 [by] a donkey_G5268 mute;_G0880 in_G1722 a man’s_G0444 voice_G5456 having spoken,_G5350 it restrained_G2967 the_G3588 of the_G3588 prophet_G4396 madness._G3913

17: These_G3778 are_G1510 springs_G4077 without water_G0504 and_G2532 mists_G0887 by_G5259 storm_G2978 being driven,_G1643 for whom_G3739 -_G3588 gloom_G2217 -_G3588 of darkness_G4655 has been reserved._G5083

18: Arrogant_G5246 for_G1063 of vanity_G3153 speaking words,_G5350 they entice_G1185 with_G1722 [the] passions_G1939 of [the] flesh_G4561 to sensuality_G0766 those_G3588 barely_G3641 escaping_G0668 from those_G3588 in_G1722 error_G4106 living,_G0390

19: freedom_G1657 them_G0846 promising,_G1861 themselves_G0846 slaves_G1401 being_G5225 -_G3588 of corruption._G5356 By what_G3739 for_G1063 anyone_G5100 has been subdued,_G2274 by that_G3778 also_G2532 he is enslaved._G1402

20: If_G1487 for_G1063 having escaped_G0668 the_G3588 pollutions_G3393 of the_G3588 world_G2889 through_G1722 [the] knowledge_G1922 of the_G3588 Lord_G2962 of us_G1473 and_G2532 Savior_G4990 Jesus_G2424 Christ,_G5547 in these_G3778 now_G1161 again_G3825 having been entangled_G1707 they are subdued,_G2274 has become_G1096 to them_G0846 the_G3588 last [state]_G2078 worse_G5501 than the_G3588 first._G4413

21: Better_G2909 for_G1063 it would have been_G1510 for them_G0846 not_G3361 to have known_G1921 the_G3588 way_G3598 -_G3588 of righteousness,_G1343 than_G2228 having known [it],_G1921 to have turned_G5290 from_G1537 the_G3588 having been delivered_G3860 to them_G0846 holy_G0040 commandment._G1785

22: Has happened_G4819 to them_G0846 the thing_G3588 of the_G3588 TRUE_G0227 proverb:_G3942 A dog_G2965 having returned_G1994 to_G1909 [its]_G3588 own_G2398 vomit,_G1829 and,_G2532 A sow_G5300 having washed,_G3068 to [her]_G1519 rolling place_G2946 in [the] mire._G1004
