2PE-2:1 But there were false prophets also among the people,
even
as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall
bring
in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and
bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2PE-2:2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason
of
whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
2PE-2:3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words
make
merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth
not,
and their damnation slumbereth not.
2PE-2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast
[them] down to hell, and delivered [them] into chains of
darkness,
to be reserved unto judgment;
2PE-2:5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth
[person], a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon
the world of the ungodly;
2PE-2:6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes
condemned [them] with an overthrow, making [them] an ensample
unto
those that after should live ungodly;
2PE-2:7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy
conversation
of the
wicked:
2PE-2:8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing
and
hearing, vexed [his] righteous soul from day to day with [their]
unlawful deeds;)
2PE-2:9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of
temptations, and to
reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:
2PE-2:10 But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust
of
uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous [are they],
selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
2PE-2:11 Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might,
bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.
2PE-2:12 But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken
and
destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and
shall utterly perish in their own corruption;
2PE-2:13 And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, [as]
they
that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots [they are]
and
blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while
they
feast with you;
2PE-2:14 Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease
from
sin;
beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with
covetous
practices;
cursed children:
2PE-2:15 Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray,
following the way of Balaam [the son] of Bosor, who loved the
wages
of unrighteousness;
2PE-2:16 But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking
with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet.
2PE-2:17 These are wells without water, clouds that are carried
with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for
ever.
2PE-2:18 For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity,
they
allure through the lusts of the flesh, [through much] wantonness,
those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.
2PE-2:19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are
the
servants of
corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he
brought
in bondage.
2PE-2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the
world
through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they
are
again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse
with
them than the beginning.
2PE-2:21 For it had been better for them not to have known the
way
of righteousness, than, after they have known [it], to turn from
the
holy commandment delivered unto them.
2PE-2:22 But it is happened unto them according to the true
proverb, The dog [is] turned to his own vomit again; and the sow
that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.
