2 Peter 2:10-12

Common English Bible

¹⁰ This is especially true for those who follow after the corrupt cravings of the sinful nature and defy the Lord’s authority.

Evil character of the false teachers

These reckless, brash people aren’t afraid to insult the glorious ones, ¹¹ yet angels, who are stronger and more powerful, don’t use insults when pronouncing the Lord’s judgment on them. ¹² These false teachers are like irrational animals, mere creatures of instinct, born to be captured and destroyed. They slander what they don’t understand and, like animals, they will be destroyed.
