2 Peter 2 Text (WEB)
  1. But false prophets also arose among the people, as false teachers will also be among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, denying even the Master who bought them, bringing on themselves swift destruction.
  2. Many will follow their immoral ways, and as a result, the way of the truth will be maligned.
  3. In covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words: whose sentence now from of old doesn't linger, and their destruction will not slumber.
  4. For if God didn't spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus, and committed them to pits of darkness, to be reserved for judgment;
  5. and didn't spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah with seven others, a preacher of righteousness, when he brought a flood on the world of the ungodly;
  6. and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly;
  7. and delivered righteous Lot, who was very distressed by the lustful life of the wicked
  8. (for that righteous man dwelling among them, was tormented in his righteous soul from day to day with seeing and hearing lawless deeds):
  9. the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment;
  10. but chiefly those who walk after the flesh in the lust of defilement, and despise authority. Daring, self-willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries;
  11. whereas angels, though greater in might and power, don't bring a railing judgment against them before the Lord.
  12. But these, as unreasoning creatures, born natural animals to be taken and destroyed, speaking evil in matters about which they are ignorant, will in their destroying surely be destroyed,
  13. receiving the wages of unrighteousness; people who count it pleasure to revel in the daytime, spots and blemishes, reveling in their deceit while they feast with you;
  14. having eyes full of adultery, and who can't cease from sin; enticing unsettled souls; having a heart trained in greed; children of cursing;
  15. forsaking the right way, they went astray, having followed the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of wrongdoing;
  16. but he was rebuked for his own disobedience. A mute donkey spoke with a man's voice and stopped the madness of the prophet.
  17. These are wells without water, clouds driven by a storm; for whom the blackness of darkness has been reserved forever.
  18. For, uttering great swelling words of emptiness, they entice in the lusts of the flesh, by licentiousness, those who are indeed escaping from those who live in error;
  19. promising them liberty, while they themselves are bondservants of corruption; for a man is brought into bondage by whoever overcomes him.
  20. For if, after they have escaped the defilement of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in it and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first.
  21. For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.
  22. But it has happened to them according to the true proverb, "The dog turns to his own vomit again," and "the sow that has washed to wallowing in the mire."

2 Peter 2 Text (Hebrew)
  1. וגם נביאי שקר היו בעם כאשר יהיו גם בכם מורי שקר אשר יכניסו כתות משחיתות ובכחשם במשל אשר קנם יביאו על נפשם כליון פתאם׃
  2. ורבים ילכו אחרי תועבותם ובעבורם יתן דרך האמת לגדופים׃
  3. ובדברי בדוי יעשו אתכם למחסר להם למען בצע בצע אשר משפטם מעולם לא יתמהמה ושברם לא ינום׃
  4. כי לא חס אלהים על המלאכים אשר חטאו כי אם הורידם לקצבי הרים ויסגירם בכבלי אפל לשמרם למשפט׃
  5. וגם על דורות קדם לא חס וישמר רק את נח השמיני קרא הצדק בהביאו את המבול על דור הרשעים׃
  6. ואת ערי סדום ועמרה הפך לאפר והאשימם במהפכה וישימם למשל לאשר עתידים לעשות זמה׃
  7. ויצל את לוט הצדיק אשר הלאוהו אנשי בליעל ההם בדרך זמתם׃
  8. כי הצדיק הזה בשבתו בתוכם האדיב את נפשו הישרה יום יום בראותו ובשמעו מעשי רשעם׃
  9. כי יודע יהוה להציל את חסידיו מנסיון ולחשך את הרשעים ליום המשפט להשיב גמולם להם׃
  10. וביותר את ההלכים אחרי הבשר בתאות תבל ובזים את הממשלה עזי פנים הלכים בשרירות לבם ולא יחרדו מחרף את השררות׃
  11. אשר אף המלאכים הגדולים מהם בעז וכח לא יגדפום לפני יהוה במשפטם׃
  12. והמה כבהמות הסכלות הנולדות כחק טבעם ללכד ולשחת יאבדו באבוד נפשם יען חרפו את אשר לא הבינו וישאו גמול עולתם׃
  13. אשר עדנת יומם לענג יחשבו מטנפים ומום בם המתפנקים במדוחי נפשם ואכלים ושתים עמכם׃
  14. עינים להם מלאות נאפים אשר לא תחדלות מחטוא ואת נפשות הפתאים יצודדו ולב מלמד בצע להם בני המארה׃
  15. את הדרך הישר עזבו ויתעו וילכו בדרך בלעם בן בעור אשר אהב שכר העולה׃
  16. ותהי לו תוכחת על חטאתו כי הבהמה האלמת דברה בקול אדם ותעצר באולת הקסם׃
  17. בארות בלי מים המה עבים נדפים בסערה אשר שמור להם חשך אפלה לעולם׃
  18. כי בדברם בגאות דברי שוא יצודו בתאות הבשר על ידי זמתם את אשר אך נמלטו מידי ההלכים בדרך תועה׃
  19. חפשה יבטיחו להם והם בעצמם עבדים לשחת כי האיש עבד לאשר נכבש ממנו׃
  20. כי אחרי המלטם מטמאת העולם בדעת אדנינו ומושיענו ישוע המשיח אם שבו והטבעו בתוכן ונכבשו אחריתם תהיה רעה מראשיתם׃
  21. טוב היה להם לא לדעת את דרך הצדקה מאשר ידעהו ונסגו אחור מן המצוה הקדושה המסורה להם׃
  22. ויקר להם כאשר יאמר משל האמת הכלב שב על קאו והחזיר עלה מן הרחצה להתגלל ברפש׃

2 Peter 2 Text (Greek)
  1. εγενοντο 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
  2. και πολλοι εξακολουθησουσιν αυτων ταις ασελγειαις δι ους η οδος της αληθειας βλασφημηθησεται
  3. και εν πλεονεξια πλαστοις λογοις υμας εμπορευσονται οις το κριμα εκπαλαι ουκ αργει και η απωλεια αυτων ου νυσταζει
  4. ει γαρ ο θεος αγγελων αμαρτησαντων ουκ εφεισατο αλλα ζοφου ταρταρωσας παρεδωκεν εις κρισιν τηρουμενους
  5. και εν πλεονεξια πλαστοις λογοις υμας εμπορευσονται οις το κριμα εκπαλαι ουκ αργει και η απωλεια αυτων ου νυσταζει
  6. ει γαρ ο θεος αγγελων αμαρτησαντων ουκ εφεισατο αλλα ζοφου ταρταρωσας παρεδωκεν εις κρισιν τηρουμενους
  7. και αρχαιου κοσμου ουκ εφεισατο αλλα ογδοον νωε δικαιοσυνης κηρυκα εφυλαξεν κατακλυσμον κοσμω ασεβων επαξας
  8. και πολεις σοδομων και γομορρας τεφρωσας κατεκρινεν υποδειγμα μελλοντων τεθεικως
  9. και δικαιον λωτ καταπονουμενον υπο της των αθεσμων εν ασελγεια αναστροφης ερρυσατο
  10. βλεμματι γαρ και ακοη δικαιος εγκατοικων εν αυτοις ημεραν εξ ημερας ψυχην δικαιαν ανομοις εργοις εβασανιζεν
  11. οιδεν κυριος ευσεβεις εκ πειρασμου ρυεσθαι αδικους δε εις ημεραν κρισεως κολαζομενους τηρειν
  12. μαλιστα δε τους οπισω σαρκος εν επιθυμια μιασμου πορευομενους και κυριοτητος καταφρονουντας τολμηται αυθαδεις δοξας ου τρεμουσιν βλασφημουντες
  13. οπου αγγελοι ισχυι και δυναμει μειζονες οντες ου φερουσιν κατ αυτων βλασφημον κρισιν
  14. ουτοι δε ως αλογα ζωα γεγεννημενα φυσικα εις αλωσιν και φθοραν εν οις αγνοουσιν βλασφημουντες εν τη φθορα αυτων και φθαρησονται
  15. αδικουμενοι μισθον αδικιας ηδονην ηγουμενοι την εν ημερα τρυφην σπιλοι και μωμοι εντρυφωντες εν ταις απαταις αυτων συνευωχουμενοι υμιν
  16. οφθαλμους εχοντες μεστους μοιχαλιδος και αμαρτιας δελεαζοντες ψυχας αστηρικτους καρδιαν γεγυμνασμενην πλεονεξιας εχοντες καταρας τεκνα
  17. καταλειποντες ευθειαν οδον επλανηθησαν εξακολουθησαντες τη οδω του βαλααμ του ος μισθον αδικιας ηγαπησεν
  18. ελεγξιν δε εσχεν ιδιας παρανομιας υποζυγιον αφωνον εν ανθρωπου φωνη φθεγξαμενον εκωλυσεν την του προφητου παραφρονιαν
  19. ουτοι εισιν πηγαι ανυδροι και ομιχλαι υπο λαιλαπος ελαυνομεναι οις ο ζοφος του σκοτους τετηρηται
  20. υπερογκα γαρ ματαιοτητος φθεγγομενοι δελεαζουσιν εν επιθυμιαις σαρκος ασελγειαις τους ολιγως αποφευγοντας τους εν πλανη αναστρεφομενους
  21. ελευθεριαν αυτοις επαγγελλομενοι αυτοι δουλοι υπαρχοντες της φθορας ω γαρ τις ηττηται τουτω δεδουλωται
  22. ει 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
  23. κρειττον γαρ ην αυτοις μη επεγνωκεναι την οδον της δικαιοσυνης η επιγνουσιν υποστρεψαι εκ της παραδοθεισης αυτοις αγιας εντολης
  24. συμβεβηκεν αυτοις το της αληθους παροιμιας κυων επιστρεψας επι το ιδιον εξεραμα και υς λουσαμενη εις κυλισμον βορβορου

2 Peter 2 Text (Latin)
  1. Fuerunt vero et pseudoprophetæ in populo, sicut et in vobis erunt magistri mendaces, qui introducent sectas perditionis : et eum qui emit eos, Dominum negant, superducentes sibi celerem perditionem.
  2. Et multi sequentur eorum luxurias, per quos via veritatis blasphemabitur :
  3. et in avaritia fictis verbis de vobis negotiabuntur : quibus judicium jam olim non cessat : et perditio eorum non dormitat.
  4. Si enim Deus angelis peccantibus non pepercit, sed rudentibus inferni detractos in tartarum tradidit cruciandos, in judicium reservari.
  5. Et originali mundo non pepercit, sed octavum Noë justitiæ præconem custodivit, diluvium mundo impiorum inducens.
  6. Et civitates Sodomorum et Gomorrhæorum in cinerem redigens, eversione damnavit : exemplum eorum, qui impie acturi sunt, ponens :
  7. et justum Lot oppressum a nefandorum injuria, ac luxuriosa conversatione eripuit :
  8. aspectu enim, et auditu justus erat : habitans apud eos, qui de die in diem animam justam iniquis operibus cruciabant.
  9. Novit Dominus pios de tentatione eripere : iniquos vero in diem judicii reservare cruciandos.
  10. Magis autem eos, qui post carnem in concupiscentia immunditiæ ambulant, dominationemque contemnunt, audaces, sibi placentes, sectas non metuunt introducere blasphemantes :
  11. ubi angeli fortitudine, et virtute cum sint majores, non portant adversum se execrabile judicium.
  12. Hi vero velut irrationabilia pecora, naturaliter in captionem, et in perniciem in his quæ ignorant blasphemantes in corruptione sua peribunt,
  13. percipientes mercedem injustitiæ, voluptatem existimantes diei delicias : coinquinationes, et maculæ deliciis affluentes, in conviviis suis luxuriantes vobiscum,
  14. oculos habentes plenos adulterii, et incessabilis delicti. Pellicientes animas instabiles, cor exercitatum avaritia habentes, maledictionis filii :
  15. derelinquentes rectam viam erraverunt, secuti viam Balaam ex Bosor, qui mercedem iniquitatis amavit :
  16. correptionem vero habuit suæ vesaniæ : subjugale mutum animal, hominis voce loquens, prohibuit prophetæ insipientiam.
  17. Hi sunt fontes sine aqua, et nebulæ turbinibus exagitatæ, quibus caligo tenebrarum reservatur.
  18. Superba enim vanitatis loquentes, pelliciunt in desideriis carnis luxuriæ eos, qui paululum effugiunt, qui in errore conversantur :
  19. libertatem illis promittentes, cum ipsi servi sint corruptionem : a quo enim quis superatus est, hujus et servus est.
  20. Si enim refugientes coinquinationes mundi in cognitione Domini nostri, et Salvatoris Jesu Christi, his rursus implicatis superantur : facta sunt eis posteriora deteriora prioribus.
  21. Melius enim erat illis non cognoscere viam justitiæ, quam post agnitionem, retrorsum converti ab eo, quod illis traditum est, sancto mandato.
  22. Contigit enim eis illud veri proverbii : Canis reversus ad suum vomitum : et, Sus lota in volutabro luti.

2 Peter 2 Text (KJV)
  1. But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
  2. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
  3. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
  4. For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;
  5. And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
  6. And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;
  7. And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:
  8. (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;)
  9. The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:
  10. But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.
  11. Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.
  12. But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;
  13. And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;
  14. Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:
  15. Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
  16. But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet.
  17. These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.
  18. For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.
  19. While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.
  20. For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
  21. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.
  22. But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.
