2 Peter 2:1-6 ▼

1 But there arose false prophets also among the people, as among you also there will be false teachers, who, indeed, will stealthily bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master Who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction:

2 and many will follow their lascivious doings; by reason of whom the way of the truth will be defamed;

3 and, in covetousness, will they, with feigned words, make merchandise of you; for whom the judgment from of old lingers not, and their destruction slumbers not.

4 For, if God spared not angels that sinned, but, hurling them down to Hell, delivered them up to pits of darkness, kept for judgment;

5 and spared not the old world; but preserved Noah, an eighth person , a preacher of righteousness, bringing a flood upon a world of ungodly people ;

6 and, turning to ashes the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, condemned them by an overthrow, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly;
