(H)Their condemnation from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.

2 But there were also false prophets(A) among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you.(B) They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord(C) who bought them(D)—bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2 Many will follow their depraved conduct(E) and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3 In their greed(F) these teachers will exploit you(G) with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.

For they walked in (B)the way of Cain and abandoned themselves for the sake of gain (C)to Balaam's error and (D)perished in Korah's rebellion. 12 These are hidden reefs[a] (E)at your love feasts, as they feast with you without fear, (F)shepherds feeding themselves; (G)waterless clouds, (H)swept along by winds; fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead, (I)uprooted; 13 (J)wild waves of the sea, casting up the foam of (K)their own shame; (L)wandering stars, (M)for whom the gloom of utter darkness has been reserved forever.

12 (A)But these, like irrational animals, (B)creatures of instinct, born to be caught and destroyed, blaspheming about matters of which they are ignorant, will also be destroyed in their destruction, 13 suffering wrong as (C)the wage for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure (D)to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions,[a] while (E)they feast with you. 14 They have eyes full of adultery,[b] (F)insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts (G)trained in greed. (H)Accursed children! 15 Forsaking the right way, (I)they have gone astray. They have followed (J)the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved (K)gain from wrongdoing, 16 but was rebuked for his own transgression; (L)a speechless donkey spoke with human voice and restrained the prophet's madness.
17 (M)These are waterless springs and mists driven by a storm. (N)For them the gloom of utter darkness has been reserved. 18 For, (O)speaking loud boasts of folly, they entice by sensual passions of the flesh those who are barely (P)escaping from those who live in error. 19 They promise them (Q)freedom, (R)but they themselves are slaves[c] of corruption. For whatever overcomes a person, to that he is enslaved. 20 For if, (S)after they have escaped the defilements of the world (T)through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, (U)the last state has become worse for them than the first. 21 For (V)it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from (W)the holy commandment delivered to them. 22 What the true proverb says has happened to them: “The (X)dog returns to its own vomit, and the sow, after washing herself, returns to wallow in the mire.”

2 Peter 2:12-22
New International Version
12 But these people blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like unreasoning animals, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like animals they too will perish.(A)
13 They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight.(B) They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.[a](C) 14 With eyes full of adultery, they never stop sinning; they seduce(D) the unstable;(E) they are experts in greed(F)—an accursed brood!(G) 15 They have left the straight way and wandered off to follow the way of Balaam(H) son of Bezer,[b] who loved the wages of wickedness. 16 But he was rebuked for his wrongdoing by a donkey—an animal without speech—who spoke with a human voice and restrained the prophet’s madness.(I)
17 These people are springs without water(J) and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them.(K) 18 For they mouth empty, boastful words(L) and, by appealing to the lustful desires of the flesh, they entice people who are just escaping(M) from those who live in error. 19 They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity—for “people are slaves to whatever has mastered them.”(N) 20 If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing(O) our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ(P) and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning.(Q) 21 It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than to have known it and then to turn their backs on the sacred command that was passed on to them.(R) 22 Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,”[c](S) and, “A sow that is washed returns to her wallowing in the mud.”
