2 Peter 2:10-18

But
<1161>
chiefly
<3122>
them that walk
<4198> (5740)
after
<3694>
the flesh
<4561>
in
<1722>
the lust
<1939>
of uncleanness
<3394>_,
and
<2532>
despise
<2706> (5723)
government
<2963>_.
Presumptuous
<5113>
[are they], selfwilled
<829>_,
they are not
<3756>
afraid
<5141> (5719)
to speak evil
<987> (5723)
of dignities
<1391>_.
{government: or, dominion}
Whereas
<3699>
angels
<32>_,
which are
<5607> (5752)
greater in
<3187>
power
<2479>
and
<2532>
might
<1411>_,
bring
<5342> (5719)
not
<3756>
railing
<989>
accusation
<2920>
against
<2596>
them
<846>
before
<3844>
the Lord
<2962>_.
{them: some read, themselves}
But
<1161>
these
<3778>_,
as
<5613>
natural
<5446>
brute
<249>
beasts
<2226>_,
made
<1080> (5772)
to
<1519>
be taken
<259>
and
<2532>
destroyed
<5356>_,
speak evil
<987> (5723)
of
<1722>
the things that
<3739>
they understand not
<50> (5719)_;
and shall utterly perish
<2704> (5691)
in
<1722>
their own
<846>
corruption
<5356>_;
And shall receive
<2865> (5697)
the reward
<3408>
of unrighteousness
<93>_,
[as] they that count
<2233> (5740)
it pleasure
<2237>
to riot
<5172>
in
<1722>
the day time
<2250>_.
Spots
<4696>
[they are] and
<2532>
blemishes
<3470>_,
sporting themselves
<1792> (5723)
with
<1722>
their own
<846>
deceivings
<539>
while they feast
<4910> (5740)
with you
<5213>_;
Having
<2192> (5723)
eyes
<3788>
full
<3324>
of adultery
<3428>_,
and
<2532>
that cannot cease from
<180>
sin
<266>_;
beguiling
<1185> (5723)
unstable
<793>
souls
<5590>_:
an heart
<2588>
they have
<2192> (5723)
exercised
<1128> (5772)
with covetous practices
<4124>_;
cursed
<2671>
children
<5043>_:
{adultery: Gr. an adulteress}
Which have forsaken
<2641> (5631)
the right
<2117>
way
<3598>_,
and are gone astray
<4105> (5681)_,
following
<1811> (5660)
the way
<3598>
of Balaam
<903>
[the son] of Bosor
<1007>_,
who
<3739>
loved
<25> (5656)
the wages
<3408>
of unrighteousness
<93>_;
But
<1161>
was
<2192> (5627)
rebuked
<1649>
for his
<2398>
iniquity
<3892>_:
the dumb
<880>
ass
<5268>
speaking
<5350> (5674)
with
<1722>
man's
<444>
voice
<5456>
forbad
<2967> (5656)
the madness
<3913>
of the prophet
<4396>_.
These
<3778>
are
<1526> (5748)
wells
<4077>
without water
<504>_,
clouds
<3507>
that are carried
<1643> (5746)
with
<5259>
a tempest
<2978>_;
to whom
<3739>
the mist
<2217>
of darkness
<4655>
is reserved
<5083> (5769)
for
<1519>
ever
<165>_.
For
<1063>
when they speak
<5350> (5726)
great swelling
<5246>
[words] of vanity
<3153>_,
they allure
<1185> (5719)
through
<1722>
the lusts
<1939>
of the flesh
<4561>_,
[through much] wantonness
<766>_,
those that were clean
<3689>
escaped
<668> (5631)
from them who live
<390> (5746)
in
<1722>
error
<4106>_.
{clean: or, for a little, or, a while, as some read}
