¹⁷ You therefore, ^(A)beloved, knowing this beforehand, ^(B)be on your guard so that you are not carried away by ^(C)the error of ^(D)unprincipled men and ^(E)fall from your own steadfastness, ¹⁸ but grow in the grace and ^(F)knowledge of our ^(G)Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. ^(H)To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
