2 Peter 2:7-11
English Standard Version
7 and (A)if he rescued righteous Lot, greatly distressed by the sensual conduct of the wicked 8 (for as that righteous man lived among them day after day, (B)he was tormenting his righteous soul over their lawless deeds that he saw and heard); 9 then (C)the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials,[a] and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment, 10 and especially (D)those who indulge[b] in the lust of defiling passion and (E)despise authority.
Bold and willful, they do not tremble (F)as they blaspheme the glorious ones, 11 (G)whereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not pronounce a blasphemous judgment against them before the Lord.
