Jude 14-16
Amplified Bible
14 It was about these people that [a]Enoch, in the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied, when he said, “Look, the Lord came with [b]myriads of His holy ones 15 to execute judgment upon all, and to convict all the [c]ungodly of all the ungodly deeds they have done in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh and cruel things ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.” 16 These people are [habitual] murmurers, griping and complaining, following after their own desires [controlled by passion]; they speak arrogantly, [pretending admiration and] flattering people to gain an advantage.
