10 This is especially true of those who follow
the corrupt desire of the sinful
00 nature and despise authority. Bold
and arrogant, these men are not afraid
00 to slander celestial beings;
11 yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful,
do not
00 bring slanderous accusations against
such beings in the presence of the
00 Lord.
12 But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They
are
00 like brute beasts, creatures of
instinct, born only to be caught and
00 destroyed, and like beasts they
too will perish.
13 They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea
00 of pleasure is to carouse in broad
daylight. They are blots and
00 blemishes, reveling in their pleasures
while they feast with you.
14 With eyes full of adultery, they never stop sinning; they seduce
the
00 unstable; they are experts in greed-an
accursed brood!
15 They have left the straight way and wandered off to follow the
way of
00 Balaam son of Beor, who loved the
wages of wickedness.
16 But he was rebuked for his wrongdoing by a donkey-a
beast without
00 speech-who spoke with a man's voice
and restrained the prophet's
00 madness.
17 These men are springs without water and mists driven by a storm.
00 Blackest darkness is reserved for
them.
18 For they mouth empty, boastful words and, by
appealing to the lustful
00 desires of sinful human nature,
they entice people who are just escaping
00 from those who live in error.
19 They promise them freedom, while they themselves
are slaves of
00 depravity-for a man is a slave
to whatever has mastered him.
20 If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our
Lord and
00 Savior Jesus Christ and are again
entangled in it and overcome, they are
00 worse off at the end than they
were at the beginning.
21 It would have been better for them not to have
known the way of
00 righteousness, than to have known
it and then to turn their backs on the
00 sacred command that was passed
on to them.
22 Of them the proverbs are true: "A dog returns to its vomit,"
and, "A sow that
00 is washed goes back to her wallowing
in the mud."
