10. and these, as many things indeed as they have not known, they speak evil of; and as many things as naturally (as the irrational beasts) they understand, in these they are corrupted;
11. woe to them! because in the way of Cain they did go on, and to the deceit of Balaam for reward they did rush, and in the gainsaying of Korah they did perish.
12. These are in your love-feasts craggy rocks; feasting together with you, without fear shepherding themselves; clouds without water, by winds carried about; trees autumnal, without fruit, twice dead, rooted up;
13. wild waves of a sea, foaming out their own shames; stars going astray, to whom the gloom of the darkness to the age hath been kept.
14. And prophesy also to these did the seventh from Adam--Enoch--saying, `Lo, the Lord did come in His saintly myriads,
15. to do judgment against all, and to convict all their impious ones, concerning all their works of impiety that they did impiously, and concerning all the stiff things that speak against Him did impious sinners.'
16. These are murmurers, repiners; according to their desires walking, and their mouth doth speak great swellings, giving admiration to persons for the sake of profit;
17. and ye, beloved, remember ye the sayings spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ:
18. that they said to you, that in the last time there shall be scoffers, after their own desires of impieties going on,
19. these are those setting themselves apart, natural men, the Spirit not having.
20. And ye, beloved, on your most holy faith building yourselves up, in the Holy Spirit praying,
21. yourselves in the love of God keep ye, waiting for the kindness of our Lord Jesus Christ- -to life age-during;
22. and to some be kind, judging thoroughly,
23. and some in fear save ye, out of the fire snatching, hating even the coat from the flesh spotted.
24. And to Him who is able to guard you not stumbling, and to set [you] in the presence of His glory unblemished, in gladness,
25. to the only wise God our Saviour, [is] glory and greatness, power and authority, both now and to all the ages! Amen.
