2 Peter 2:10-16
Lexham English Bible
10 and especially those who go after the flesh in defiling lust[a] and who despise authority.
Bold and arrogant, they do not tremble in awe as they[b] blaspheme majestic beings, 11 whereas angels, who are greater in strength and power, do not bring against them a demeaning judgment.[c] 12 But these persons, like irrational animals born only with natural instincts for capture and killing, blaspheming about things[d] they do not understand, in their destruction will also be destroyed, 13 being harmed as the wages of unrighteousness. Considering reveling in the daytime a pleasure, they are stains and blemishes, carousing in their deceitful pleasures when they[e] feast together with you, 14 having eyes full of desire for an adulteress and unceasing from sin, enticing unstable persons, and[f] having hearts trained for greediness. Accursed children! 15 By[g] leaving the straight path, they have gone astray, because they[h] followed the way of Balaam the son of Bosor,[i] who loved the wages of unrighteousness, 16 but received a rebuke for his own lawlessness: a speechless donkey, speaking with a human voice, restrained the prophet’s madness[j].
