Berean Standard Bible
1εγενοντο δε και ψευδοπροφηται εν τω λαω ωσ και εν υμιν εσονται ψευδοδιδασκαλοι οιτινεσ παρεισαξουσιν αιρεσεισ απωλειασ και τον αγορασαντα αυτουσ δεσποτην αρνουμενοι επαγοντεσ εαυτοισ ταχινην απωλειαν
1Now there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2και πολλοι εξακολουθησουσιν αυτων ταισ ασελγειαισ δι ουσ η οδοσ τησ αληθειασ βλασφημηθησεται
2Many will follow in their depravity, and because of them the way of truth will be defamed.
3και εν πλεονεξια πλαστοισ λογοισ υμασ εμπορευσονται οισ το κριμα εκπαλαι ουκ αργει και η απωλεια αυτων ου νυσταξει
3In their greed, these false teachers will exploit you with deceptive words. The longstanding verdict against them remains in force, and their destruction does not sleep.
4ει γαρ ο θεοσ αγγελων αμαρτησαντων ουκ εφεισατο αλλα σειραισ ζοφου ταρταρωσασ παρεδωκεν εισ κρισιν τηρουμενουσ
4For if God did not spare the angels when they sinned, but cast them deep into hell, placing them in chains of darkness to be held for judgment;
5και αρχαιου κοσμου ουκ εφεισατο αλλα ογδοον νωε δικαιοσυνησ κηρυκα εφυλαξεν κατακλυσμον κοσμω ασεβων επαξασ
5if He did not spare the ancient world when He brought the flood on its ungodly people, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, among the eight;
6και πολεισ σοδομων και γομορρασ τεφρωσασ καταστροφη κατεκρινεν υποδειγμα μελλοντων ασεβειν τεθεικωσ
6if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction, reducing them to ashes as an example of what is coming on the ungodly;
7και δικαιον λωτ καταπονουμενον υπο τησ των αθεσμων εν ασελγεια αναστροφησ ερρυσατο
7and if He rescued Lot, a righteous man distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless
8βλεμματι γαρ και ακοη ο δικαιοσ εγκατοικων εν αυτοισ ημεραν εξ ημερασ ψυχην δικαιαν ανομοισ εργοισ εβασανιζεν
8(for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)—
9οιδεν κυριοσ ευσεβεισ εκ πειρασμου ρυεσθαι αδικουσ δε εισ ημεραν κρισεωσ κολαζομενουσ τηρειν
9if all this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment.
10μαλιστα δε τουσ οπισω σαρκοσ εν επιθυμια μιασμου πορευομενουσ και κυριοτητοσ καταφρονουντασ τολμηται αυθαδεισ δοξασ ου τρεμουσιν βλασφημουντεσ
10Such punishment is specially reserved for those who indulge the corrupt desires of the flesh and despise authority. Bold and self-willed, they are unafraid to slander glorious beings.
11οπου αγγελοι ισχυι και δυναμει μειζονεσ οντεσ ου φερουσιν κατ αυτων παρα κυριω βλασφημον κρισιν
11Yet not even angels, though greater in strength and power, dare to bring such slanderous charges against them before the Lord.
12ουτοι δε ωσ αλογα ζωα φυσικα γεγενημενα εισ αλωσιν και φθοραν εν οισ αγνοουσιν βλασφημουντεσ εν τη φθορα αυτων καταφθαρησονται
12These men are like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be captured and destroyed. They blaspheme in matters they do not understand, and like such creatures, they too will be destroyed.
13κομιουμενοι μισθον αδικιασ ηδονην ηγουμενοι την εν ημερα τρυφην σπιλοι και μωμοι εντρυφωντεσ εν ταισ απαταισ αυτων συνευωχουμενοι υμιν
13The harm they will suffer is the wages of their wickedness. They consider it a pleasure to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their deception as they feast with you.
14οφθαλμουσ εχοντεσ μεστουσ μοιχαλιδοσ και ακαταπαυστουσ αμαρτιασ δελεαζοντεσ ψυχασ αστηρικτουσ καρδιαν γεγυμνασμενην πλεονεξιασ εχοντεσ καταρασ τεκνα
14Their eyes are full of adultery; their desire for sin is never satisfied; they seduce the unstable. They are accursed children with hearts trained in greed.
15καταλιποντεσ ευθειαν οδον επλανηθησαν εξακολουθησαντεσ τη οδω του βαλααμ του βοσορ οσ μισθον αδικιασ ηγαπησεν
15They have left the straight way and wandered off to follow the way of Balaam son of Beor, who loved the wages of wickedness.
16ελεγξιν δε εσχεν ιδιασ παρανομιασ υποζυγιον αφωνον εν ανθρωπου φωνη φθεγξαμενον εκωλυσεν την του προφητου παραφρονιαν
16But he was rebuked for his transgression by a donkey, otherwise without speech, that spoke with a man’s voice and restrained the prophet’s madness.
17ουτοι εισιν πηγαι ανυδροι νεφελαι υπο λαιλαποσ ελαυνομεναι οισ ο ζοφοσ του σκοτουσ εισ αιωνα τετηρηται
17These men are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them.
18υπερογκα γαρ ματαιοτητοσ φθεγγομενοι δελεαζουσιν εν επιθυμιαισ σαρκοσ ασελγειαισ τουσ οντωσ αποφυγοντασ τουσ εν πλανη αναστρεφομενουσ
18With lofty but empty words, they appeal to the sensual passions of the flesh and entice those who are just escaping from others who live in error.
19ελευθεριαν αυτοισ επαγγελλομενοι αυτοι δουλοι υπαρχοντεσ τησ φθορασ ω 3739 R-DSM γαρ τισ ηττηται τουτω 3778 D-DSM και δεδουλωται
19They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves to depravity. For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him.
20ει γαρ αποφυγοντεσ τα μιασματα του κοσμου εν επιγνωσει του κυριου και σωτηροσ ιησου χριστου τουτοισ δε παλιν εμπλακεντεσ ηττωνται γεγονεν αυτοισ τα εσχατα χειρονα των πρωτων
20If indeed they have escaped the corruption of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, only to be entangled and overcome by it again, their final condition is worse than it was at first.
21κρειττον γαρ ην αυτοισ μη επεγνωκεναι την οδον τησ δικαιοσυνησ η επιγνουσιν επιστρεψαι εκ τησ παραδοθεισησ αυτοισ αγιασ εντολησ
21It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness than to have known it and then to turn away from the holy commandment passed on to them.
22συμβεβηκεν δε αυτοισ το τησ αληθουσ παροιμιασ κυων επιστρεψασ επι το ιδιον εξεραμα και υσ λουσαμενη εισ κυλισμα βορβορου
22Of them the proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,” and, “A sow that is washed goes back to her wallowing in the mud.”
