Antediluvians » Destruction of
Every living thing that moved on the earth perished: birds, livestock, wild animals, all the creatures that swarm over the earth, and all mankind. Everything on dry land that had the breath of life in its nostrils died. Every living thing on the face of the earth was wiped out. Men and animals and the creatures that move along the ground and the birds of the air were wiped from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those with him in the ark.
Jehovah said to Noah: Go into the ark, you and your whole family. For I have found you righteous in this generation.
Will you keep to the old way that the wicked have trod? They were snatched away before their time. Their foundation is washed away by flood. They said to God: 'Leave us alone.' They asked: 'What can the Almighty do to us?'
The presence of the Son of man will be similar to the days of Noah. It will be like those days before the Flood. They were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark. They were not aware until the Flood came and took them all away. The coming (presence) of the Son of man will be like this.
The days of the Son of man will be like the days of Noah. They ate, they drank and they got married until Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came, and destroyed them all.
He did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly!

He did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly!
By faith Noah, being warned by God about things not seen as yet, moved with godly respect. He prepared an ark to save his house. By his faith he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that is according to faith.
Because Christ also suffered for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God. He was put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit. He preached to the people in prison. They were disobedient while the ark was being built. Yet God waited patiently in the days of Noah. But few, that is, eight persons, were saved through water.

Corruption » Who are the servants of corruption
There arose false prophets among the people. There will be false teachers among you! They will privately bring in destructive heresies (contrary doctrines), denying even the Master who bought them. They bring swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow their lascivious (filthy sensual) deeds. The way of the truth will be maligned. They speak evil words about you because of their extreme greed. They will exploit you with false evil words. Their judgment from long ago is not idle. Their destruction will not delay. read more.
God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to captivity in pits of darkness reserved for judgment! He did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly! He turned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them with an overthrow, and made them an example to those who are ungodly. He delivered righteous Lot, who was very distressed by the lustful life of the wicked. That righteous man that dwelled among them was tormented by the lawless deeds he saw and heard. Jehovah knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to preserve the unrighteous for the Day of Judgment. (Psalm 34:19) (Matthew 25:46) This is primarily for those who indulge the flesh in its corrupt desires and despise authority. Daring, self-willed, they do not tremble at glorious ones but speak abusively. Angels, though greater in might and power, do not bring an accusation of abusive judgment against them before Jehovah. But these are creatures without reason. They were born mere animals to be taken and destroyed! They speak abusively in matters of which they are ignorant. They suffer destruction in their own course of destruction. They suffer wrong as their reward for wrongdoing. They are men that count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are spots and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions while they feast with you. They have eyes full of adultery that cannot cease from sin! They entice unsteady persons. Their hearts are full of covetousness. They are children of cursing. They went astray, forsaking the right way. They followed the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved the wages of wrongdoing. He was rebuked for his own transgression. A beast of burden spoke with a man's voice and restrained (hindered) the madness of the prophet. These are springs without water, and mists driven by a storm, for whom the gloom of darkness has been reserved. For, uttering arrogant words of vanity, they entice in the desires (lusts) of the flesh, by sensuality (lasciviousness), those who are just escaping from the ones who live in error. They promise them freedom, while they are bondservants of corruption. A man is brought into bondage by one and enslaved by another.

Examples » What and who are examples
Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them are an example for they, in like manner with these surrendered to fornication and went after flesh for unnatural use. They received justice by ever burning fire.
Brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant about how all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea. They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. They all ate the same spiritual meal. read more.
They all drank the same spiritual drink, for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them. That Rock was (represented) (symbolic of) Christ! (Exodus 7:6) (Numbers 20:11) God was not pleased with most of them. And their bodies were scattered in the wilderness. Now these things were examples for us. They teach us not to lust after evil things like they did. Do not be idolaters like some of them. It is written: The people sat down to eat and drink, and stood up to play. Do not commit fornication like some of them committed. Twenty three thousand of them died in one day. Do not test Jehovah like some of them also did and were destroyed by serpents. Do not grumble like some of them grumbled. Venomous snakes killed them. These things happened for examples, and they are written for our instruction, upon whom the end of the ages has come. Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed that he does not fall.

The Lord Jehovah said: Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit and have seen nothing. O Israel, your prophets have been like foxes among ruins.

Did you not see a false vision and speak a lying divination when you said 'Jehovah declares,' but it is not I who has spoken?' Therefore, the Lord Jehovah says: 'Because you have spoken falsehood and seen a lie, therefore behold, I am against you,' declares the Lord Jehovah. My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and utter lying divinations. They will have no place in the council of my people. They will not be written down in the register of the house of Israel. And they will not enter the land of Israel, that you may know that I am the Lord Jehovah.

But these are creatures without reason. They were born mere animals to be taken and destroyed! They speak abusively in matters of which they are ignorant. They suffer destruction in their own course of destruction. They suffer wrong as their reward for wrongdoing. They are men that count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are spots and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions while they feast with you. They have eyes full of adultery that cannot cease from sin! They entice unsteady persons. Their hearts are full of covetousness. They are children of cursing. They went astray, forsaking the right way. They followed the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved the wages of wrongdoing. He was rebuked for his own transgression. A beast of burden spoke with a man's voice and restrained (hindered) the madness of the prophet. These are springs without water, and mists driven by a storm, for whom the gloom of darkness has been reserved. For, uttering arrogant words of vanity, they entice in the desires (lusts) of the flesh, by sensuality (lasciviousness), those who are just escaping from the ones who live in error.
God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to captivity in pits of darkness reserved for judgment! He did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly! He turned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them with an overthrow, and made them an example to those who are ungodly. He delivered righteous Lot, who was very distressed by the lustful life of the wicked. That righteous man that dwelled among them was tormented by the lawless deeds he saw and heard. Jehovah knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to preserve the unrighteous for the Day of Judgment.

Speech/communication » Who speaks evil
Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them are an example for they, in like manner with these surrendered to fornication and went after flesh for unnatural use. They received justice by ever burning fire. In like manner these men also in their dreams defile the flesh, reject authority and speak evil of glorious ones. Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil disputed about the body of Moses. He did not speak evil judgment against him in abusive terms, but said: Jehovah rebukes you.

They speak evil words about you because of their extreme greed. They will exploit you with false evil words. Their judgment from long ago is not idle. Their destruction will not delay. read more.

There are those who rebel against the light. They are not acquainted with its ways, and do not stay in its paths.

Then he disguises his face. read more.

Swift are they on the face of the waters. Their portion in the land is cursed! No treader turns toward their vineyards.

Who rejoice in doing evil? They delight in the perversity of the wicked. The wicked are crooked. They are devious in their ways. You will be able to resist any immoral woman who tries to seduce you with her smooth talk. She is unfaithful to her own husband and forgets her sacred vows to God. If you go to her house, you are traveling the road to death. To go there is to approach the dead. No one who visits her ever comes back. He cannot return to the road to life.
