Jude 1:13
Compare all
11 Woe to them! For they have gone in the way aof Cain, bhave run greedily in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished cin the rebellion of Korah.  

Apostates Depraved and Doomed

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.”  

Apostates Predicted

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

Jude 1:13

Wild waves (kumata agria). Waves (Matthew 8:24, from kuew, to swell) wild (from agrov, field, wild honey Matthew 3:4) like untamed animals of the forest or the sea.

Foaming out (epafrizonta). Late and rare present active participle of epafrizw, used in Moschus for the foaming waves as here. Cf. Isaiah 57:20.

Shame (aisxunav). Plural "shames" (disgraces). Cf. Philippians 3:19.

Wandering stars (asterev planhtai). "Stars wanderers." Planhthv, old word (from planaw), here alone in N.T. Some refer this to comets or shooting stars. See Isaiah 14:12 for an allusion to Babylon as the day-star who fell through pride.

For ever (eiv aiwna). The rest of the relative clause exactly as in II Peter 2:17.
