Yet in the same way these men, also by dreaming, (A)defile the flesh, and reject authority, and blaspheme [a]glorious ones. 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.

Yet in like manner these also in their dreamings defile the flesh, and set at nought dominion, and rail at [a]dignities. But Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing judgment, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. 10 But these rail at whatsoever things they know not: and what they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason, in these things are they [b]destroyed. 11 Woe unto them! for they went in the way of Cain, and [c]ran riotously in the error of Balaam for hire, and perished in the gainsaying of Korah. 12 These are they who are [d]hidden rocks in your love-feasts when they feast with you, shepherds that without fear feed themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; 13 wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own [e]shame; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of darkness hath been reserved for ever.
