2 Timothy 3:6-9
New American Standard Bible
6 For among them are those who [a](A)slip into households and captivate [b](B)weak women weighed down with sins, led on by (C)various impulses, 7 always learning and never able to (D)come to the [c]knowledge of the truth. 8 Just as (E)Jannes and Jambres (F)opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, (G)men of depraved mind, [d]worthless in regard to the faith. 9 But they will not make further progress; for their (H)foolishness will be obvious to all, just (I)as was that also of [e]Jannes and Jambres.

2 Timothy 3:6-9
New Living Translation
6 They are the kind who work their way into people’s homes and win the confidence of[a] vulnerable women who are burdened with the guilt of sin and controlled by various desires. 7 (Such women are forever following new teachings, but they are never able to understand the truth.) 8 These teachers oppose the truth just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses. They have depraved minds and a counterfeit faith. 9 But they won’t get away with this for long. Someday everyone will recognize what fools they are, just as with Jannes and Jambres.
