1 Now there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you⁺. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master {despotēn} who bought them—bringing swift destruction (ruin) on themselves. 2 Many will follow in their depravity, and because of them the way of truth will be defamed (blasphemed). 3 In their greed, these false teachers will exploit you⁺ with deceptive words. The longstanding verdict against them remains in force, and their destruction does not sleep. 2 Peter 2:1-3, Berean Annotated Bible. Public domain.
