But what things they do not know, they speak evil of. And what things they understand naturally, like the animals without reason, they are corrupted by these.

These are sunken rocks in your love feasts, feasting together with you; feeding themselves without fear; waterless clouds being carried about by winds; fruitless autumn trees, having died twice, having been plucked up by the roots;

These are murmurers, complainers, leading lives according to their lusts. And their mouth speaks proud things, admiring faces for the sake of gain.

These are those setting themselves apart, animal-like ones, not having the Spirit.
