20 But (A)know this first of all, that (B)no prophecy of Scripture [a]becomes a matter of [b]someone’s own interpretation, 21 for (C)no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men (D)moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.

The Appearance of False Prophets

But (E)false prophets also appeared among the people, just as there will also be (F)false teachers (G)among you, who will (H)secretly introduce (I)destructive heresies, even (J)denying the (K)Master who (L)bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves.
