Jude 5-7
Legacy Standard Bible
5 Now I want to (A)remind you, though (B)you know all things, that [a]Jesus, (C)having once saved a people out of the land of Egypt, [b]subsequently destroyed those who did not believe. 6 And (D)angels who did not keep their own domain, but abandoned their proper abode, He has (E)kept in eternal bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day, 7 just as (F)Sodom and Gomorrah and the (G)cities around them, having indulged in the same way as these in gross sexual immorality and having (H)gone after [c]strange flesh, are exhibited as an [d](I)example in undergoing the (J)punishment of eternal fire.

Jude 5-7
New Living Translation
5 So I want to remind you, though you already know these things, that Jesus[a] first rescued the nation of Israel from Egypt, but later he destroyed those who did not remain faithful. 6 And I remind you of the angels who did not stay within the limits of authority God gave them but left the place where they belonged. God has kept them securely chained in prisons of darkness, waiting for the great day of judgment. 7 And don’t forget Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighboring towns, which were filled with immorality and every kind of sexual perversion. Those cities were destroyed by fire and serve as a warning of the eternal fire of God’s judgment.
