2 Peter 2:15
| ← 2 Peter 2:14 | 2 Peter 2:15 (KJV) | 2 Peter 2:16 → |
|---|---|---|
Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: an heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:
|
Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam [the son] of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
|
But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet.
