2 Peter 3:17

3:17 Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, 1  be on your guard that you do not get led astray by the error of these unprincipled men 2  and fall from your firm grasp on the truth. 3 

1 tn Grk “knowing beforehand.”

2 tn Or “lawless ones.”

sn These unprincipled men. The same word is used in 2:7, suggesting further that the heretics in view in chapter 3 are the false teachers of chapter 2.

3 tn Grk “fall from your firmness.”
