¹³ They are like wild waves of the sea, ·tossing up their own shameful actions like foam [^Lfoaming up their own shame]. They are like ·stars that wander in the sky [^Cperhaps a reference to planets, whose variable positions, unlike those of the stars, provide mariners no guidance]. A place in the ·blackest darkness [^Lgloom of darkness; v. 7] has been kept for them forever [2 Pet. 2:17].

¹⁴ Enoch, the seventh descendant from Adam [^Ccounting Adam first; Gen. 5:18–24], ·said [^Lprophesied] about these people: “·Look [^TBehold], the Lord is coming with many thousands of his ·holy angels [^Lholy ones] to ¹⁵ judge every person. He is coming to ·punish [convict] ·all [every person/soul] who are against God for all ·the evil they have done against him [^Ltheir ungodly deeds committed in an ungodly manner]. And he will punish the ·sinners who are against God [ungodly sinners] for all the ·evil [harsh/defiant words; insults] they have said against him.” [^CJude appears to be quoting here from the nonbiblical Jewish book of 1 Enoch (1:9), although he may be drawing generally from Jewish tradition.]
