2 Peter 2:11-13
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
11 whereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not bring against them a slanderous judgement from the Lord.[a] 12 These people, however, are like irrational animals, mere creatures of instinct, born to be caught and killed. They slander what they do not understand, and when those creatures are destroyed,[b] they also will be destroyed, 13 suffering[c] the penalty for doing wrong. They count it a pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, revelling in their dissipation[d] while they feast with you.
