rwbs@2Peter:2:1 @ But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

rwbs@2Peter:2:2 @ And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. (note:)pernicious ways: or, lascivious ways, as some copies read(:note)

rwbs@2Peter:2:3 @ And through covetousness they shall with deceptive words exploit you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their destruction slumbereth not.

rwbs@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast down to hell, and delivered into chains of darkness, to be reserved to judgment;

rwbs@2Peter:2:5 @ And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth, a preacher of righteousness, bringing the flood upon the world of the ungodly;

rwbs@2Peter:2:6 @ And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes condemned with an overthrow, making an example to those that afterwards should live ungodly lives;

rwbs@2Peter:2:7 @ And delivered just Lot, grieved with the immoral behaviour of the wicked:

rwbs@2Peter:2:8 @ (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, tormented righteous soul from day to day with unlawful deeds;)

rwbs@2Peter:2:9 @ The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust to the day of judgment to be punished:

rwbs@2Peter:2:10 @ But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities. (note:)government: or, dominion(:note)

rwbs@2Peter:2:11 @ Though angels, who are greater in power and might, bring not a reviling accusation against them before the Lord. (note:)them: some read, themselves(:note)

rwbs@2Peter: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;

rwbs@2Peter:2:13 @ And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;

rwbs@2Peter:2:14 @ Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: they have an heart exercised with covetous practices; cursed children: (note:)adultery: Gr. an adulteress(:note)

rwbs@2Peter:2:15 @ Who have forsaken the right way, and gone astray, following the way of Balaam of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;

rwbs@2Peter:2:16 @ But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb donkey speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the prophet.

rwbs@2Peter:2:17 @ These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.

rwbs@2Peter:2:18 @ For when they speak great swelling of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, wantonness, those that are just escaping from them who live in error. (note:)clean: or, for a little, or, a while, as some read(:note)

rwbs@2Peter:2:19 @ While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for by whom a man is overcome, by the same is he brought into bondage.

rwbs@2Peter: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 in them, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

rwbs@2Peter:2:21 @ For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.

rwbs@2Peter:2:22 @ But it hath happened to them according to the true proverb, The dog turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.
