upon°
themselves°
swift°
destruction.° |
|
2:2
And many shall follow their lascivious doings; by reason of whom the way of the truth shall be evil spoken of. |
|
2:2
And°
many°
shall follow°°
their°
pernicious ways;°
by reason of°
whom°
the°
way°
of truth°
shall be evil spoken of.°° |
|
2:3
And in covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose sentence now from of old lingereth not, and their destruction slumbereth not. |
|
2:3
And°
through°
covetousness°
shall they with feigned°
words°
make merchandise°°
of you:°
whose°
judgment°
now of a long time°
lingereth°°
not,°
and°
their°
damnation°
slumbereth°°
not.° |
|
2:4
For if God spared not angels when they sinned, but cast them down to hell, and committed them to pits of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; |
|
2:4
For°
if°
God°
spared°°
not°
the angels°
that sinned,°°
but°
cast [them] down to hell,°°
and delivered°°
[them] into chains°
of darkness,°
to be reserved°°
unto°
judgment;° |
|
2:5
and spared not the ancient world, but preserved Noah with seven others, a preacher of righteousness, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; |
|
2:5
And°
spared°°
not°
the old°
world,°
but°
saved°°
Noah°
the eighth°
[person], a preacher°
of righteousness,°
bringing in°°
the flood°
upon the world°
of the ungodly;° |
|
2:6
and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, having made them an example unto those that should live ungodly; |
|
2:6
And°
turning°°
the cities°
of Sodom°
and°
Gomorrha°
into ashes°°°°°°
condemned°°
[them] with an overthrow,°
making°°
[them] an ensample°
unto those that after should°°
live ungodly;°° |
|
2:7
and delivered righteous Lot, sore distressed by the lascivious life of the wicked |
|
2:7
And°
delivered°°
just°
Lot,°
vexed°°
with°
the°
filthy°
conversation°°°
of the°
wicked:° |
|
2:8
(for that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed [his] righteous soul from day to day with [their] lawless deeds): |
|

the Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment unto the day of judgment; |

The Lord°
knoweth°°
how to deliver°°
the godly°
out of°
temptations,°
and°
to reserve°°
the unjust°
unto°
the day°
of judgment°
to be punished:°° |
|
2:10
but chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of defilement, and despise dominion. Daring, self-willed, they tremble not to rail at dignities: |
|
2:10
But°
chiefly°
them that walk°°
after°
the flesh°
in°
the lust°
of uncleanness,°
and°
despise°°
government.°
Presumptuous°
[are they], selfwilled,°
they are not°
afraid°°
to speak evil°°
of dignities.° |
|
2:11
whereas angels, though greater in might and power, bring not a railing judgment against them before the Lord. |
|
2:11

angels,°
which are°°
greater°
in°
power°
and°
might,°
bring°°
not°
railing°
accusation°

them°
before°
the Lord.° |
|
2:12
But these, as creatures without reason, born mere animals to be taken and destroyed, railing in matters whereof they are ignorant, shall in their destroying surely be destroyed, |

2:12
But°
these,°
as°
natural°
brute°
beasts,°
made°°
to°
be taken°°
and°
destroyed,°°
speak evil°°
of°
the things that°
they understand not;°°
and shall utterly perish°°
in°
their own°°
corruption;° |
|
2:13
suffering wrong as the hire of wrong-doing; [men] that count it pleasure to revel in the day-time, spots and blemishes, revelling in their deceivings while they feast with you; |
|
2:13
And shall receive°°
the reward°
of unrighteousness,°
[as] they that count°°
it pleasure°
to riot°
in°
the day time.°
Spots°°
[they are] and°
blemishes,°
sporting themselves°°
with°
their own°°
deceivings°
while they feast°°
with you;° |
|
2:14
having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; enticing unstedfast souls; having a heart exercised in covetousness; children of cursing; |
|
2:14
Having°°
eyes°
full°
of adultery,°
and°
that cannot cease°
from°
sin;°
beguiling°°
unstable°
souls:°
an heart°
they have°°
exercised°°
with covetous practices;°
cursed°
children:° |
|
2:15
forsaking the right way, they went astray, having followed the way of Balaam the [son] of Beor, who loved the hire of wrong-doing; |
|
2:15
Which have forsaken°°
the°
right°
way,°
and are gone astray,°°
following°°
the°
way°
of Balaam°
[the son] of Bosor,°
who°
loved°°
the wages°
of unrighteousness;° |
|
2:16
but he was rebuked for his own transgression: a dumb ass spake with man's voice and stayed the madness of the prophet. |
|
2:16
But°
was°°
rebuked°°
for his°
iniquity:°
the dumb°
ass°
speaking°°
with°
man's°

forbad°°
the°
madness°
of the°
prophet.° |
|
2:17
These are springs without water, and mists driven by a storm; for whom the blackness of darkness hath been reserved. |
|
2:17
These°
are°°
wells°
without water,°
clouds°
that are carried°°
with°
a tempest;°
to whom°
the°
mist°

for°°
ever.° |
|
2:18
For, uttering great swelling [words] of vanity, they entice in the lusts of the flesh, by lasciviousness, those who are just escaping from them that live in error; |
|
2:18
For°
when they speak°°
great swelling°
[words] of vanity,°
they allure°°
through°
the lusts°
of the flesh,°
[through much] wantonness,°
those that were clean°
escaped°°°
from them who live°°
in°
error.° |
|
2:19
promising them liberty, while they themselves are bondservants of corruption; for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he also brought into bondage. |
|
2:19
While they promise°°
them°
liberty,°
they°
themselves°
are°°
the servants°
of corruption:°
for°
of whom°
a man°
is overcome,°°°
of the same°
is he°
brought in bondage.°° |
|
2:20
For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein and overcome, the last state is become worse with them than the first. |
|
2:20
For°
if°
after they have escaped°°
the°
pollutions°
of the°
world°
through°
the knowledge°
of the°
Lord°
and°
Saviour°
Jesus°
Christ,°
they are°°°
again°
entangled°°
therein,°
and°°
overcome,°°°°
the°
latter end°
is°
worse°
with them°
than the°
beginning.° |
|
2:21
For it were better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandment delivered unto them. |
|
2:21
For°
it had been°°
better°
for them°
not°
to have known°°
the°
way°
of righteousness,°
than,°
after they have known°°
[it], to turn°°
from°
the°
holy°
commandment°
delivered°°
unto them.° |
|
2:22
It has happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog turning to his own vomit again, and the sow that had washed to wallowing in the mire. |
|
2:22
But°
it is happened°°
unto them°
according°
to°
the°
true°
proverb,°

vomit°
again;°°°°°
and°
the sow°
