| 2nd-Peter 2:1 | But there were false prophets among the people, as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly put forward wrong teachings for your destruction, even turning away from the Lord who gave himself for them; whose destruction will come quickly, and they themselves will be the cause of it. | And there did come also false prophets among the people, as also among you there shall be false teachers, who shall bring in besides destructive sects, and the Master who bought them denying, bringing to themselves quick destruction, | But there were also false prophets among the people, as there will be teachers of falsehood among you also, who will cunningly introduce fatal divisions, disowning even the Sovereign Lord who has redeemed them, and bringing on themselves swift destruction. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:2 | And a great number will go with them in their evil ways, through whom the true way will have a bad name. | and many shall follow out their destructive ways, because of whom the way of the truth shall be evil spoken of, | And in their immoral ways they will have many eager disciples, through whom religion will be brought into disrepute. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:3 | And in their desire for profit they will come to you with words of deceit, like traders doing business in souls: whose punishment has been ready for a long time and their destruction is watching for them. | and in covetousness, with moulded words, of you they shall make merchandise, whose judgment of old is not idle, and their destruction doth not slumber. | Thirsting for riches, they will trade on you with their canting talk. From of old their judgement has been working itself out, and their destruction has not been slumbering. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:4 | For if God did not have pity for the angels who did evil, but sent them down into hell, to be kept in chains of eternal night till they were judged; | For if God messengers who sinned did not spare, but with chains of thick gloom, having cast [them] down to Tartarus, did deliver [them] to judgment, having been reserved, | For God did not spare angels when they had sinned, but hurling them down to Tartarus consigned them to caves of darkness, keeping them in readiness for judgement. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:5 | And did not have mercy on the world which then was, but only kept safe Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when he let loose the waters over the world of the evil-doers; | and the old world did not spare, but the eighth person, Noah, of righteousness a preacher, did keep, a flood on the world of the impious having brought, | And He did not spare the ancient world, although He preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when He brought a deluge on the world of the ungodly. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:6 | And sent destruction on Sodom and Gomorrah, burning them up with fire as an example to those whose way of life might in the future be unpleasing to him; | and the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah having turned to ashes, with an overthrow did condemn, an example to those about to be impious having set [them]; | He reduced to ashes the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, and condemned them to overthrow, making them an example to people who might in future be living godless lives. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:7 | And kept safe Lot, the upright man, who was deeply troubled by the unclean life of the evil-doers | and righteous Lot, worn down by the conduct in lasciviousness of the impious, He did rescue, | But when righteous Lot was sore distressed by the gross misconduct of immoral men He rescued him. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:8 | (Because the soul of that upright man living among them was pained from day to day by seeing and hearing their crimes): | for in seeing and hearing, the righteous man, dwelling among them, day by day the righteous soul with unlawful works was harassing. | (For their lawless deeds were torture, day after day, to the pure soul of that righteous man all that he saw and heard whilst living in their midst.) |
| 2nd-Peter 2:9 | The Lord is able to keep the upright safe in the time of testing, and to keep evil-doers under punishment till the day of judging; | The Lord hath known to rescue pious ones out of temptation, and unrighteous ones to a day of judgment, being punished, to keep, | Since all this is so, the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from temptation, and on the other hand how to keep the unrighteous under punishment in readiness for the Day of Judgement, |
| 2nd-Peter 2:10 | But specially those who go after the unclean desires of the flesh, and make sport of authority. Ready to take chances, uncontrolled, they have no fear of saying evil of those in high places: | and chiefly those going behind the flesh in desire of uncleanness, and lordship despising; presumptuous, self-complacent, dignities they are not afraid to speak evil of, | and especially those who are abandoned to sensuality craving, as they do, for polluted things, and scorning control. Fool-hardy and self-willed, they do not tremble when speaking evil of glorious beings; |
| 2nd-Peter 2:11 | Though the angels, who are greater in strength and power, do not make use of violent language against them before the Lord. | whereas messengers, in strength and power being greater, do not bear against them before the Lord an evil speaking judgment; | while angels, though greater than they in might and power, do not bring any insulting accusation against such in the presence of the Lord. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:12 | But these men, like beasts without reason, whose natural use is to be taken and put to death, crying out against things of which they have no knowledge, will undergo that same destruction which they are designing for others; | and these, as irrational natural beasts, made to be caught and destroyed in what things they are ignorant of, speaking evil in their destruction shall be destroyed, | But these men, like brute beasts, created (with their natural instincts) only to be captured or destroyed, are abusive in matters of which they are ignorant, and in their corruption will perish, |
| 2nd-Peter 2:13 | For the evil which overtakes them is the reward of their evil-doing: such men take their pleasure in the delights of the flesh even in the daytime; they are like the marks of a disease, like poisoned wounds among you, feasting together with you in joy; | about to receive a reward of unrighteousness, pleasures counting the luxury in the day, spots and blemishes, luxuriating in their deceits, feasting with you, | being doomed to receive a requital for their guilt. They reckon it pleasure to feast daintily in broad daylight. They are spots and blemishes, while feeding luxuriously at their love-feasts, and banqueting with you. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:14 | Having eyes full of evil desire, never having enough of sin; turning feeble souls out of the true way; they are children of cursing, whose hearts are well used to bitter envy; | having eyes full of adultery, and unable to cease from sin, enticing unstable souls, having an heart exercised in covetousnesses, children of a curse, | Their very eyes are full of adultery being eyes which never cease from sin. These men set traps to catch unstedfast souls, their own hearts being well trained in greed. They are fore-doomed to God's curse! |
| 2nd-Peter 2:15 | Turning out of the true way, they have gone wandering in error, after the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who was pleased to take payment for wrongdoing; | having forsaken a right way, they did go astray, having followed in the way of Balaam the [son] of Bosor, who a reward of unrighteousness did love, | Forsaking the straight road, they have gone astray, having eagerly followed in the steps of Balaam, the son of Beor, who was bent on securing the wages of unrighteousness. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:16 | But his wrongdoing was pointed out to him: an ass, talking with a man's voice, put a stop to the error of the prophet. | and had a rebuke of his own iniquity a dumb ass, in man`s voice having spoken, did forbid the madness of the prophet. | But he was rebuked for his transgression: a dumb ass spoke with a human voice and checked the madness of the Prophet. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:17 | These are fountains without water, and mists before a driving storm; for whom the eternal night is kept in store. | These are wells without water, and clouds by a tempest driven, to whom the thick gloom of the darkness to the age hath been kept; | These people are wells without water, mists driven along by a storm, men for whom the dense darkness has been reserved. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:18 | For with high-sounding false words, making use of the attraction of unclean desires of the flesh, they get into their power those newly made free from those who are living in error; | for overswellings of vanity speaking, they do entice in desires of the flesh lasciviousnesses, those who had truly escaped from those conducting themselves in error, | For, while they pour out their frivolous and arrogant talk, they use earthly cravings every kind of immorality as a bait to entrap men who are just escaping from the influence of those who live in error. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:19 | Saying that they will be free, while they themselves are the servants of destruction; because whatever gets the better of a man makes a servant of him. | liberty to them promising, themselves being servants of the corruption, for by whom any one hath been overcome, to this one also he hath been brought to servitude, | And they promise them freedom, although they are themselves the slaves of what is corrupt. For a man is the slave of any one by whom he has been worsted in fight. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:20 | For if, after they have got free from the unclean things of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again taken in the net and overcome, their last condition is worse than their first. | for, if having escaped from the pollutions of the world, in the acknowledging of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and by these again being entangled, they have been overcome, become to them hath the last things worse than the first, | For if, after escaping from the pollutions of the world through a full knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, people are once more entangled in these pollutions and are overcome, their last state has become worse than their first. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:21 | For it would have been better for them to have had no knowledge of the way of righteousness, than to go back again from the holy law which was given to them, after having knowledge of it. | for it were better to them not to have acknowledged the way of the righteousness, than having acknowledged [it], to turn back from the holy command delivered to them, | For it would have been better for them not to have fully known the way of righteousness, than, after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandments in which they were instructed. |
| 2nd-Peter 2:22 | They are an example of that true saying, The dog has gone back to the food it had put out, and the pig which had been washed to its rolling in the dirty earth. | and happened to them hath that of the true similitude; `A dog did turn back upon his own vomit,` and, `A sow having bathed herself to rolling in mire.` | Their case is that described in the true proverb, "A dog returns to what he has vomited," and also in the other proverb, "The sow has washed itself and now goes back to roll in its filth." |
