10 and especially those who [a](A)indulge the flesh in its corrupt passion, and (B)despise [b]authority.
[c]Reckless, (C)self-centered, they (D)speak abusively of angelic [d]majesties without trembling, 11 (E)whereas angels who are greater in might and power do not bring a demeaning judgment against them before the Lord. 12 But (F)these, like unreasoning animals, (G)born as creatures of instinct to be captured and killed, using abusive speech where they have no knowledge, will in [e]the destruction of those creatures also be destroyed,

2 Peter 2:10-12
New International Version
10 This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire(A) of the flesh[a] and despise authority.

They are like unreasoning animals, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like animals they too will perish.(D)
