Jude 3-4

English Standard Version

Judgment on False Teachers

³Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our ^(A)common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you ^(B)to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. ⁴For ^(C)certain people ^(D)have crept in unnoticed ^(E)who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert ^(F)the grace of our God into sensuality and ^(G)deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

Jude 17-23

English Standard Version

A Call to Persevere

¹⁷But you must ^(A)remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. ¹⁸They^[a] said to you, ^(B)“In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.” ¹⁹It is these who cause divisions, worldly people, ^(C)devoid of the Spirit. ²⁰But you, beloved, ^(D)building yourselves up in your most holy faith and ^(E)praying in the Holy Spirit, ²¹^(F)keep yourselves in the love of God, ^(G)waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. ²²And have mercy on those who doubt; ²³save others by ^(H)snatching them out of ^(I)the fire; to others show mercy ^(J)with fear, hating even ^(K)the garment^[b] stained by the flesh.
