ButG1161 there wereG1096 false prophetsG5578 alsoG2532 amongG1722 the peopleG2992, evenG2532 asG5613 there shall beG2071 false teachersG5572 amongG1722 youG5213, whoG3748 privily shall bring inG3919 damnableG684 heresiesG139, evenG2532 denyingG720 the LordG1203 that boughtG59 themG846, and bringG1863 upon themselvesG1438 swiftG5031 destructionG684.
AndG2532 manyG4183 shall followG1811 theirG846 pernicious waysG684; by reason ofG1223 whomG3739 the wayG3598 of truthG225 shall be evil spoken ofG987. {pernicious ways: or, lascivious ways, as some copies read}
AndG2532 throughG1722 covetousnessG4124 shall they with feignedG4112 wordsG3056 make merchandiseG1710 of youG5209: whoseG3739 judgmentG2917 now of a long timeG1597 lingerethG691 notG3756, andG2532 theirG846 damnationG684 slumberethG3573 notG3756.
ForG1063 ifG1487 GodG2316 sparedG5339 notG3756 the angelsG32 that sinnedG264, butG235 cast them down to hellG5020, and deliveredG3860 them into chainsG4577 of darknessG2217, to be reservedG5083 untoG1519 judgmentG2920;
AndG2532 sparedG5339 notG3756 the oldG744 worldG2889, butG235 savedG5442 NoahG3575 the eighthG3590 person, a preacherG2783 of righteousnessG1343, bringing inG1863 the floodG2627 upon the worldG2889 of the ungodlyG765;
AndG2532 turningG5077 the citiesG4172 of SodomG4670 andG2532 GomorrhaG1116 into ashesG5077 condemnedG2632 them with an overthrowG2692, makingG5087 them an ensampleG5262 unto those that after shouldG3195 live ungodlyG764;
AndG2532 deliveredG4506 justG1342 LotG3091, vexedG2669 withG5259 the filthyG766 conversationG391 ofG1722 the wickedG113:
(ForG1063 that righteous manG1342 dwellingG1460 amongG1722 themG846, in seeingG990 andG2532 hearingG189, vexedG928 his righteousG1342 soulG5590 from dayG2250 toG1537 dayG2250 with their unlawfulG459 deedsG2041;)
The LordG2962 knowethG1492 how to deliverG4506 the godlyG2152 out ofG1537 temptationsG3986, andG1161 to reserveG5083 the unjustG94 untoG1519 the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920 to be punishedG2849:
ButG1161 chieflyG3122 them that walkG4198 afterG3694 the fleshG4561 inG1722 the lustG1939 of uncleannessG3394, andG2532 despiseG2706 governmentG2963. PresumptuousG5113 are they, selfwilledG829, they are notG3756 afraidG5141 to speak evilG987 of dignitiesG1391. {government: or, dominion}
WhereasG3699 angelsG32, which areG5607 greater inG3187 powerG2479 andG2532 mightG1411, bringG5342 notG3756 railingG989 accusationG2920 againstG2596 themG846 beforeG3844 the LordG2962. {them: some read, themselves}
ButG1161 theseG3778, asG5613 naturalG5446 bruteG249 beastsG2226, madeG1080 toG1519 be takenG259 andG2532 destroyedG5356, speak evilG987 ofG1722 the things thatG3739 they understand notG50; and shall utterly perishG2704 inG1722 their ownG846 corruptionG5356;
And shall receiveG2865 the rewardG3408 of unrighteousnessG93, as they that countG2233 it pleasureG2237 to riotG5172 inG1722 the day timeG2250. SpotsG4696 they are andG2532 blemishesG3470, sporting themselvesG1792 withG1722 their ownG846 deceivingsG539 while they feastG4910 with youG5213;
HavingG2192 eyesG3788 fullG3324 of adulteryG3428, andG2532 that cannot cease fromG180 sinG266; beguilingG1185 unstableG793 soulsG5590: an heartG2588 they haveG2192 exercisedG1128 with covetous practicesG4124; cursedG2671 childrenG5043: {adultery: Gr. an adulteress}
Which have forsakenG2641 the rightG2117 wayG3598, and are gone astrayG4105, followingG1811 the wayG3598 of BalaamG903 the son of BosorG1007, whoG3739 lovedG25 the wagesG3408 of unrighteousnessG93;
ButG1161 wasG2192 rebukedG1649 for hisG2398 iniquityG3892: the dumbG880 assG5268 speakingG5350 withG1722 man'sG444 voiceG5456 forbadG2967 the madnessG3913 of the prophetG4396.
TheseG3778 areG1526 wellsG4077 without waterG504, cloudsG3507 that are carriedG1643 withG5259 a tempestG2978; to whomG3739 the mistG2217 of darknessG4655 is reservedG5083 forG1519 everG165.
ForG1063 when they speakG5350 great swellingG5246 words of vanityG3153, they allureG1185 throughG1722 the lustsG1939 of the fleshG4561, through much wantonnessG766, those that were cleanG3689 escapedG668 from them who liveG390 inG1722 errorG4106. {clean: or, for a little, or, a while, as some read}
While they promiseG1861 themG846 libertyG1657, they themselvesG846 areG5225 the servantsG1401 of corruptionG5356: forG1063 of whomG3739 a manG5100 is overcomeG2274+G2532, of the sameG5129 is he brought in bondageG1402.
ForG1063 ifG1487 after they have escapedG668 the pollutionsG3393 of the worldG2889 throughG1722 the knowledgeG1922 of the LordG2962 andG2532 SaviourG4990 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, they areG1707 againG3825 entangledG1707 thereinG5125, andG1161 overcomeG1096+G2274, the latter endG2078 is worseG5501 with themG846 than the beginningG4413.
ForG1063 it had beenG2258 betterG2909 for themG846 notG3361 to have knownG1921 the wayG3598 of righteousnessG1343, thanG2228, after they have knownG1921 it, to turnG1994 fromG1537 the holyG40 commandmentG1785 deliveredG3860 unto themG846.
ButG1161 it is happenedG4819 unto themG846 according toG3588 the trueG227 proverbG3942, The dogG2965 is turnedG1994 toG1909 his ownG2398 vomitG1829 againG1994; andG2532 the sowG5300 that was washedG3068 toG1519 her wallowingG2946 in the mireG1004.

Then the LORDH3068 rainedH4305 upon SodomH5467 and upon GomorrahH6017 brimstoneH1614 and fireH784 from the LORDH3068 out of heavenH8064;
And the earthH776 openedH6605 her mouthH6310, and swallowed them upH1104 together with KorahH7141, when that companyH5712 diedH4194, what time the fireH784 devouredH398 two hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 menH376: and they became a signH5251.
And he overthrewH2015 thoseH411 citiesH5892, and all the plainH3603, and all the inhabitantsH3427 of the citiesH5892, and that which grewH6780 upon the groundH127.
And that the whole landH776 thereof is brimstoneH1614, and saltH4417, and burningH8316, that it is not sownH2232, nor bearethH6779, nor any grassH6212 growethH5927 therein, like the overthrowH4114 of SodomH5467, and GomorrahH6017, AdmahH126, and ZeboimH6636, which the LORDH3068 overthrewH2015 in his angerH639, and in his wrathH2534:
And he lookedH8259 towardH6440 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, and towardH6440 all the landH776 of the plainH3603, and beheldH7200, and, lo, the smokeH7008 of the countryH776 went upH5927 as the smokeH7008 of a furnaceH3536.
NowG1161 allG3956 these thingsG5023 happenedG4819 unto themG1565 for ensamplesG5179: andG1161 they are writtenG1125 forG4314 ourG2257 admonitionG3559, uponG1519 whomG3739 the endsG5056 of the worldG165 are comeG2658. {ensamples: or, types}
And that the whole landH776 thereof is brimstoneH1614, and saltH4417, and burningH8316, that it is not sownH2232, nor bearethH6779, nor any grassH6212 growethH5927 therein, like the overthrowH4114 of SodomH5467, and GomorrahH6017, AdmahH126, and ZeboimH6636, which the LORDH3068 overthrewH2015 in his angerH639, and in his wrathH2534:
And BabylonH894, the gloryH6643 of kingdomsH4467, the beautyH8597 of the Chaldees'H3778 excellencyH1347, shall be as when GodH430 overthrewH4114 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017. {as…: Heb. as the overthrowing}
As GodH430 overthrewH4114 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017 and the neighbourH7934 cities thereof, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; so shall no manH376 abideH3427 there, neither shall any sonH1121 of manH120 dwellH1481 therein.
Behold, this was the iniquityH5771 of thy sisterH269 SodomH5467, prideH1347, fulnessH7653 of breadH3899, and abundanceH7962 of idlenessH8252 was in her and in her daughtersH1323, neither did she strengthenH2388 the handH3027 of the poorH6041 and needyH34.
And they were haughtyH1361, and committedH6213 abominationH8441 beforeH6440 me: therefore I took them awayH5493 as I sawH7200 good.
Neither hath SamariaH8111 committedH2398 halfH2677 of thy sinsH2403; but thou hast multipliedH7235 thine abominationsH8441 more than theyH2007, and hast justifiedH6663 thy sistersH269 in all thine abominationsH8441 which thou hast doneH6213.
Thou also, which hast judgedH6419 thy sistersH269, bearH5375 thine own shameH3639 for thy sinsH2403 that thou hast committed more abominableH8581 than theyH2004: they are more righteousH6663 than thou: yea, be thou confoundedH954 also, and bearH5375 thy shameH3639, in that thou hast justifiedH6663 thy sistersH269.
When I shall bring againH7725 their captivityH7622+H7622, the captivityH7622+H7622 of SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323, and the captivityH7622+H7622 of SamariaH8111 and her daughtersH1323, then will I bring again the captivityH7622+H7622 of thy captivesH7622 in the midstH8432 of them:
That thou mayest bearH5375 thine own shameH3639, and mayest be confoundedH3637 in all that thou hast doneH6213, in that thou art a comfortH5162 unto them.
When thy sistersH269, SodomH5467 and her daughtersH1323, shall returnH7725 to their former estateH6927, and SamariaH8111 and her daughtersH1323 shall returnH7725 to their former estateH6927, then thou and thy daughtersH1323 shall returnH7725 to your former estateH6927.
For thy sisterH269 SodomH5467 was not mentionedH8052 by thy mouthH6310 in the dayH3117 of thy prideH1347, {mentioned: Heb. for a report, or, hearing} {pride: Heb. prides, or, excellencies}
How shall I give thee upH5414, EphraimH669? how shall I deliverH4042 thee, IsraelH3478? how shall I makeH5414 thee as AdmahH126? how shall I setH7760 thee as ZeboimH6636? mine heartH3820 is turnedH2015 within me, my repentingsH5150 are kindledH3648 togetherH3162.
I have overthrownH2015 some of you, as GodH430 overthrewH4114 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, and ye were as a firebrandH181 plucked outH5337 of the burningH8316: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Therefore as I liveH2416, saithH5002 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, Surely MoabH4124 shall be as SodomH5467, and the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983 as GomorrahH6017, even the breedingH4476 of nettlesH2738, and saltpitsH4379+H4417, and a perpetualH5704+H5769 desolationH8077: the residueH7611 of my peopleH5971 shall spoilH962 them, and the remnantH3499 of my peopleH1471 shall possessH5157 them.
LikewiseG3668 alsoG2532 asG5613 it wasG1096 inG1722 the daysG2250 of LotG3091; they did eatG2068, they drankG4095, they boughtG59, they soldG4453, they plantedG5452, they buildedG3618;
ButG3739+G1161 the same dayG2250 that LotG3091 wentG1831 out ofG575 SodomG4670 it rainedG1026 fireG4442 andG2532 brimstoneG2303 fromG575 heavenG3772, andG2532 destroyedG622 them allG537.
EvenG2596 thusG5024 shall it beG2071 in the dayG3739+G2250 when the SonG5207 of manG444 is revealedG601.
Even asG5613 SodomG4670 andG2532 GomorrhaG1116, andG2532 the citiesG4172 aboutG4012 themG846 in likeG3664+G5125 mannerG5158, giving themselves over to fornicationG1608, andG2532 goingG565 afterG3694 strangeG2087 fleshG4561, are set forth forG4295 an exampleG1164, sufferingG5254 the vengeanceG1349 of eternalG166 fireG4442. {strange: Gr. other}
