2 Peter 2:11

---

← 2 Peter 2:10	2 Peter 2:11 (KJV)	2 Peter 2:12 →
But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous [are they], selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.	Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.	But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;
