Destructive Doctrines
2 But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be (A)false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. 2 And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. 3 By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction [a]does not slumber.

Deceptions of False Teachers
18 For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who [a]have actually escaped from those who live in error. 19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of [b]corruption; (A)for by whom a person is overcome, by him also he is brought into [c]bondage. 20 For if, after they (B)have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are (C)again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. 21 For (D)it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them. 22 But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: (E)“A dog returns to his own vomit,” and, “a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire.”
