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.

Stand fastG4739 thereforeG3767 in the libertyG1657 wherewithG3739 ChristG5547 hath madeG1659 usG2248 freeG1659, andG2532 beG1758 notG3361 entangledG1758 againG3825 with the yokeG2218 of bondageG1397.
JesusG2424 answeredG611 themG846, VerilyG281, verilyG281, I sayG3004 unto youG5213+G3754, WhosoeverG3956 committethG4160 sinG266 isG2076 the servantG1401 of sinG266.
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, brethrenG80, yeG5210 have been calledG2564 untoG1909 libertyG1657; onlyG3440 use notG3361 libertyG1657 forG1519 an occasionG874 to the fleshG4561, butG235 byG1223 loveG26 serveG1398 one anotherG240.
LetG936 notG3361 sinG266 thereforeG3767 reignG936 inG1722 yourG5216 mortalG2349 bodyG4983, thatG1519 ye should obeyG5219 itG846 inG1722 the lustsG1939 thereofG846.
NeitherG3366 yield yeG3936 yourG5216 membersG3196 as instrumentsG3696 of unrighteousnessG93 unto sinG266: butG235 yieldG3936 yourselvesG1438 unto GodG2316, asG5613 those that are aliveG2198 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 yourG5216 membersG3196 as instrumentsG3696 of righteousnessG1343 unto GodG2316. {instruments: Gr. arms, or, weapons}
ForG1063 sinG266 shallG2961 notG3756 have dominion overG2961 youG5216: forG1063 ye areG2075 notG3756 underG5259 the lawG3551, butG235 underG5259 graceG5485.
WoeH1945 to the crownH5850 of prideH1348, to the drunkardsH7910 of EphraimH669, whose gloriousH6643 beautyH8597 is a fadingH5034 flowerH6731, which are on the headH7218 of the fatH8081 valleysH1516 of them that are overcomeH1986 with wineH3196! {overcome: Heb. broken}
AsG5613 freeG1658, andG2532 notG3361 usingG2192 your libertyG1657 forG5613 a clokeG1942 of maliciousnessG2549, butG235 asG5613 the servantsG1401 of GodG2316. {using: Gr. having}
Know yeG1492 notG3756, thatG3754 to whomG3739 ye yieldG3936 yourselvesG1438 servantsG1401 toG1519 obeyG5218, his servantsG1401 ye areG2075 to whomG3739 ye obeyG5219; whetherG2273 of sinG266 untoG1519 deathG2288, orG2228 of obedienceG5218 untoG1519 righteousnessG1343?
ButG1161 GodG2316 be thankedG5485, thatG3754 ye wereG2258 the servantsG1401 of sinG266, butG1161 ye have obeyedG5219 fromG1537 the heartG2588 that formG5179 of doctrineG1322 whichG1519+G3739 was delivered youG3860. {which…: Gr. whereto ye were delivered}
BeingG1659 thenG1161 made freeG1659 fromG575 sinG266, ye became the servantsG1402 of righteousnessG1343.
I speakG3004 after the manner of menG442 becauseG1223 of the infirmityG769 of yourG5216 fleshG4561: forG1063 asG5618 ye have yieldedG3936 yourG5216 membersG3196 servantsG1401 to uncleannessG167 andG2532 to iniquityG458 untoG1519 iniquityG458; even soG3779 nowG3568 yieldG3936 yourG5216 membersG3196 servantsG1401 to righteousnessG1343 untoG1519 holinessG38.
ForG1063 whenG3753 ye wereG2258 the servantsG1401 of sinG266, ye wereG2258 freeG1658 from righteousnessG1343. {from…: Gr. to righteousness}
WhatG5101+G3767 fruitG2590 had yeG2192 thenG5119 inG1909 those things whereofG3739 ye areG1870 nowG3568 ashamedG1870? forG1063 the endG5056 of those thingsG1565 is deathG2288.

Mine heartH3820 withinH7130 me is brokenH7665 because of the prophetsH5030; all my bonesH6106 shakeH7363; I am like a drunkenH7910 manH376, and like a manH1397 whom wineH3196 hath overcomeH5674, becauseH6440 of the LORDH3068, and because of the wordsH1697 of his holinessH6944.
