12 These are¹ spots in your love feasts, while they feast with you without fear, serving only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried² about by the winds; late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots;

13 ^araging waves of the sea, ^bfoaming up their own shame; wandering stars ^cfor whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.

14 Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints,

15 to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the ^aharsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.”

16 These are grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts; and they ^amouth great swelling words, ^bflattering people to gain advantage.

17 ^aBut you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ:

18 how they told you that ^athere would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts.
