2 Peter 2:2

The Rise And Fall Of The False Teachers

¹ But there were also false prophets among the people, as there will be false teachers among you also, who will bring in {destructive heresies}, even denying the Master who bought them, [thus] bringing on themselves swift destruction. ² And many will follow their licentious ways, because of whom the way of truth will be reviled. ³ And in greediness they will exploit you with false words, whose condemnation [from] long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.
