Disciples’ Literal New Testament
18 For while uttering pompous[a] words of [b] futility[c], they entice by the desires of the flesh, by[d] sensualities, the ones barely[e] escaping-from the ones living in error, 19 promising them freedom, themselves being slaves of corruption. For by what one has been defeated, by this he has been enslaved.

2 Peter 2:18-19
New International Version
18 For they mouth empty, boastful words(A) and, by appealing to the lustful desires of the flesh, they entice people who are just escaping(B) from those who live in error. 19 They promise them freedom, while they themselves are slaves of depravity—for “people are slaves to whatever has mastered them.”(C)
