But (B)Michael (C)the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about (D)the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a railing judgment, but said, “(E)The Lord rebuke you!” 10 But (F)these men revile 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 [c]they have rushed headlong into (J)the error of Balaam, and (K)perished in the rebellion of Korah. 12 These are the men who are [d]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, [e]doubly dead, (P)uprooted; 13 (Q)wild waves of the sea, casting up (R)their own [f]shame like foam; wandering stars, (S)for whom the [g]black darkness has been reserved forever.
