Amplified Bible Help
2BUT ALSO [in those days] there arose false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among yourselves, who will subtly {and} stealthily introduce heretical doctrines (destructive heresies), even denying {and} disowning the Master Who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.G1161G1096G5578G2532G1722G2992G2532G5613G2071G5572G1722G5213G3748G3919G684G139G2532G720G1203G59G846G1863G1438G5031G684 2And many will follow their immoral ways {and} lascivious doings; because of them the true Way will be maligned {and} defamed.G2532G4183G1811G846G684G1223G3739G3598G225G987 3And in their covetousness (lust, greed) they will exploit you with false (cunning) arguments. From of old the sentence [of condemnation] for them has not been idle; their destruction (eternal misery) has not been asleep.G2532G1722G4124G4112G3056G1710G5209G3739G2917G1597G691G3756G2532G846G684G3573G3756 4For God did not [even] spare angels that sinned, but cast them into hell, delivering them to be kept there in pits of gloom till the judgment {and} their doom.G1063G1487G2316G5339G3756G32G264G235G5020G3860G4577G2217G5083G1519G2920 5And He spared not the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven other persons, when He brought a flood upon the world of ungodly [people].G2532G5339G3756G744G2889G235G5442G3575G3590G2783G1343G1863G2627G2889G765 6And He condemned to ruin {and} extinction the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, reducing them to ashes [and thus] set them forth as an example to those who would be ungodly;G2532G5077G4172G4670G2532G1116G5077G2632G2692G5087G5262G3195G764 7And He rescued righteous Lot, greatly worn out {and} distressed by the wanton ways of the ungodly {and} lawless--G2532G4506G1342G3091G2669G5259G766G391G1722G113 8For that just man, living [there] among them, tortured his righteous soul every day with what he saw and heard of [their] unlawful and wicked deeds--G1063G1342G1460G1722G846G990G2532G189G928G1342G5590G2250G1537G2250G459G2041 9Now if [all these things are true, then be sure] the Lord knows how to rescue the godly out of temptations {and} trials, and how to keep the ungodly under chastisement until the day of judgment {and} doom,G2962G1492G4506G2152G1537G3986G1161G5083G94G1519G2250G2920G2849 10And particularly those who walk after the flesh and indulge in the lust of polluting passion and scorn {and} despise authority. Presumptuous [and] daring [self-willed and self-loving creatures]! They scoff at {and} revile dignitaries (glorious ones) without trembling,G1161G3122G4198G3694G4561G1722G1939G3394G2532G2706G2963G5113G829G3756G5141G987G1391 11Whereas [even] angels, though superior in might and power, do not bring a defaming charge against them before the Lord.G3699G32G5607G3187G2479G2532G1411G5342G3756G989G2920G2596G846G3844G2962 12But these [people]! Like unreasoning beasts, mere creatures of instinct, born [only] to be captured and destroyed, railing at things of which they are ignorant, they shall utterly perish in their [own] corruption [in their destroying they shall surely be destroyed],G1161G3778G5613G5446G249G2226G1080G1519G259G2532G5356G987G1722G3739G50G2704G1722G846G5356 13Being destined to receive [punishment as] the reward of [their] unrighteousness [suffering wrong as the hire for their wrongdoing]. They count it a delight to revel in the daytime [living luxuriously and delicately]. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions {and} carousing together [even] as they feast with you.G2865G3408G93G2233G2237G5172G1722G2250G4696G2532G3470G1792G1722G846G539G4910G5213 14They have eyes full of harlotry, insatiable for sin. They beguile {and} bait {and} lure away unstable souls. Their hearts are trained in covetousness (lust, greed), [they are] children of a curse [exposed to cursing]!G2192G3788G3324G3428G2532G180G266G1185G793G5590G2588G2192G1128G4124G2671G5043 15Forsaking the straight road they have gone astray; they have followed the way of Balaam [the son] of Beor, who loved the reward of wickedness.G2641G2117G3598G4105G1811G3598G903G1007G3739G25G3408G93 16But he was rebuked for his own transgression when a dumb beast of burden spoke with human voice and checked the prophet's madness.G1161G2192G1649G2398G3892G880G5268G5350G1722G444G5456G2967G3913G4396 17These are springs without water and mists driven along before a tempest, for whom is reserved {forever} the gloom of darkness.G3778G1526G4077G504G3507G1643G5259G2978G3739G2217G4655G5083G1519G165 18For uttering loud boasts of folly, they beguile {and} lure with lustful desires of the flesh those who are barely escaping from them who are wrongdoers.G1063G5350G5246G3153G1185G1722G1939G4561G766G3689G668G390G1722G4106 19They promise them liberty, when they themselves are the slaves of depravity {and} defilement--for by whatever anyone is made inferior {or} worse {or} is overcome, to that [person or thing] he is enslaved.G1861G846G1657G846G5225G1401G5356G1063G3739G5100G2274G2532G5129G1402 20For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through [the full, personal] knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they again become entangled in them and are overcome, their last condition is worse [for them] than the first.G1063G1487G668G3393G2889G1722G1922G2962G2532G4990G2424G5547G1707G3825G1707G5125G1161G1096G2274G2078G5501G846G4413 21For never to have obtained a [full, personal] knowledge of the way of righteousness would have been better for them than, having obtained [such knowledge], to turn back from the holy commandment which was [verbally] delivered to them.G1063G2258G2909G846G3361G1921G3598G1343G2228G1921G1994G1537G40G1785G3860G846 22There has befallen them the thing spoken of in the true proverb, The dog turns back to his own vomit, and, The sow is washed only to wallow again in the mire.G1161G4819G846G3588G227G3942G2965G1994G1909G2398G1829G1994G2532G5300G3068G1519G2946G1004
