2 Peter 2:14-18

English Standard Version

¹⁴ They have eyes full of adultery,^{[a] (A)}insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts ^(B)trained in greed. ^(C)Accursed children! ¹⁵ Forsaking the right way, ^(D)they have gone astray. They have followed ^(E)the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved ^(F)gain from wrongdoing, ¹⁶ but was rebuked for his own transgression; ^(G)a speechless donkey spoke with human voice and restrained the prophet's madness.

^17 (H)These are waterless springs and mists driven by a storm. ^(I)For them the gloom of utter darkness has been reserved. ¹⁸ For, ^(J)speaking loud boasts of folly, they entice by sensual passions of the flesh those who are barely ^(K)escaping from those who live in error.
