Jude 8-13
Legacy Standard Bible
8 Yet in the same way these men, also by dreaming, (A)defile the flesh, and reject authority, and blaspheme [a]glorious ones. 9 But (B)Michael (C)the archangel, when he, disputing with the devil, was arguing about (D)the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a blasphemous judgment, but said, “(E)The Lord rebuke you!” 10 But (F)these men blaspheme the things which they do not understand; and (G)the things which they know by instinct, (H)like unreasoning animals, by these things they are [b]destroyed. 11 Woe to them! For they have gone (I)the way of Cain, and for pay they have poured themselves into (J)the error of Balaam, and (K)perished in the rebellion of Korah. 12 These are the men who are [c]hidden reefs (L)in your love feasts when they feast with you (M)without fear, caring for themselves; (N)clouds without water, (O)carried along by winds; autumn trees without fruit, [d]doubly dead, (P)uprooted; 13 (Q)wild waves of the sea, casting up (R)their own [e]shame like foam; wandering stars, (S)for whom the [f]black darkness has been reserved forever.

Jude 8-13
New International Version
8 In the very same way, on the strength of their dreams these ungodly people pollute their own bodies, reject authority and heap abuse on celestial beings.(A) 9 But even the archangel(B) Michael,(C) when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses,(D) did not himself dare to condemn him for slander but said, “The Lord rebuke you!”[a](E) 10 Yet these people slander whatever they do not understand, and the very things they do understand by instinct—as irrational animals do—will destroy them.(F)
11 Woe to them! They have taken the way of Cain;(G) they have rushed for profit into Balaam’s error;(H) they have been destroyed in Korah’s rebellion.(I)
12 These people are blemishes at your love feasts,(J) eating with you without the slightest qualm—shepherds who feed only themselves.(K) They are clouds without rain,(L) blown along by the wind;(M) autumn trees, without fruit and uprooted(N)—twice dead. 13 They are wild waves of the sea,(O) foaming up their shame;(P) wandering stars, for whom blackest darkness has been reserved forever.(Q)
