Jude 8-13
New American Standard Bible
8 Yet in the same way these people also, dreaming, (A)defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak abusively of angelic [a]majesties. 9 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 an abusive judgment, but said, “(E)The Lord rebuke you!” 10 But (F)these people disparage all the things that they do not understand; and (G)all the things that they know by instinct, (H)like unreasoning animals, by these things they are destroyed. 11 Woe to them! For they have gone (I)the way of Cain, and for pay [b]they have given themselves up to (J)the error of Balaam, and (K)perished in the rebellion of Korah. 12 These are the ones who are [c]hidden reefs (L)in your love feasts when they feast with you (M)without fear, like shepherds caring only 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, churning up (R)their own shameful deeds like dirty foam; wandering stars, (S)for whom the [e]gloom of darkness has been reserved forever.

Jude 8-13
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Yet These People Defile The Flesh And Reject God’s Authority. Woe To Them
8 Yet in the same way also these dreaming ones are defiling the flesh and rejecting authority[a] and blaspheming[b] glories[c]! 9 Now Michael the archangel[d], when he was speaking concerning the body of Moses while disputing with the devil, did not dare to bring[e] a judgment of blasphemy, but said, “May the Lord rebuke you”. 10 But these ones— whatever things they do not understand, they blaspheme; and whatever things they know instinctually like unreasoning animals, by these they are being destroyed. 11 Woe to them, because they went in the way of Cain, and they poured-forth[f] in the error of Balaam for wages, and they perished[g] in the rebellion of Korah.
Enoch Prophesied God Would Execute Judgment Against These Ungodly Stains
12 These ones are the ones who are spots[h] in your love-feasts, feasting-with[i] you fearlessly, tending[j] themselves; waterless clouds being carried-along by winds; fruitless autumn trees having died twice, having been uprooted; 13 wild waves of the sea foaming-up their shames; wandering stars for whom the gloom of darkness has been reserved forever.
