Jude 5-16

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ Now I desire to ^(A)remind you, though ^(B)you know all things once for all, that ^[a]the Lord, ^(C)after saving 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, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and ^(H)went after ^[c]strange flesh, are exhibited as an ^[d](I)example in undergoing the ^(J)punishment of eternal fire.

⁸ Yet in the same way these men, also by dreaming, ^(K)defile the flesh, and reject authority, and revile ^[e]angelic majesties. ⁹ But ^(L)Michael ^(M)the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about ^(N)the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a railing judgment, but said, “^(O)The Lord rebuke you!” ¹⁰ But ^(P)these men revile the things which they do not understand; and ^(Q)the things which they know by instinct, ^(R)like unreasoning animals, by these things they are ^[f]destroyed. ¹¹ Woe to them! For they have gone ^(S)the way of Cain, and for pay ^[g]they have rushed headlong into ^(T)the error of Balaam, and ^(U)perished in the rebellion of Korah. ¹² These are the men who are ^[h]hidden reefs ^(V)in your love feasts when they feast with you ^(W)without fear, caring for themselves; ^(X)clouds without water, ^(Y)carried along by winds; autumn trees without fruit, ^[i]doubly dead, ^(Z)uprooted; ^13 (AA)wild waves of the sea, casting up ^(AB)their own ^[j]shame like foam; wandering stars, ^(AC)for whom the ^[k]black darkness has been reserved forever.

¹⁴ It was also about these men that ^(AD)Enoch, in the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied, saying, “^(AE)Behold, the Lord came with ^[l]many thousands of His holy ones, ^15 (AF)to execute judgment upon all, and to convict all the ungodly of all their ungodly deeds which they have done in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ^(AG)ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.” ¹⁶ These are ^(AH)grumblers, finding fault, ^(AI)following after their own lusts; ^[m]they speak ^(AJ)arrogantly, flattering people ^(AK)for the sake of gaining an advantage.
