2 Peter 2:17-20
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
17 These are waterless springs and mists driven by a storm; for them the deepest darkness has been reserved.(A) 18 For they speak bombastic nonsense, and with debased[a] desires of the flesh they entice people who have just[b] escaped from those who live in error. 19 They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption, for people are slaves to whatever masters them.(B) 20 For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of the[c] Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overpowered, the last state has become worse for them than the first.(C)

17 These people are springs without water(A) and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them.(B) 18 For they mouth empty, boastful words(C) and, by appealing to the lustful desires of the flesh, they entice people who are just escaping(D) 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.”(E) 20 If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing(F) our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ(G) and are again entangled in it and are overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning.(H)

20 When you come together, it is not really to eat the Lord’s supper. 21 For when the time comes to eat, each of you proceeds to eat your own supper, and one goes hungry and another becomes drunk. 22 What! Do you not have households to eat and drink in? Or do you show contempt for the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What should I say to you? Should I commend you? In this matter I do not commend you!

10 Israel’s[a] sentinels are blind;
they are all without knowledge;
they are all silent dogs
that cannot bark,
dreaming, lying down,
loving to slumber.(A)
11 The dogs have a mighty appetite;
they never have enough.
The shepherds also have no understanding;
they have all turned to their own way,
to their own gain, one and all.
12 “Come,” they say, “let us[b] get wine;
let us fill ourselves with strong drink.
And tomorrow will be like today,
great beyond measure.”

Let us drink our fill of beer!
And tomorrow will be like today,
or even far better.”(I)
