16 These ones are complaining murmurers, walking according to their own desires. And their mouth is speaking arrogance, admiring persons for the sake of gain.
17 But as for you, most beloved, be mindful of the words which have been foretold by the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,
18 who declared to you that, in the end time, there would arrive mockers, walking according to their own desires, in impieties.
19 These are the ones who segregate themselves; they are animals, not having the Spirit.
20 But you, most beloved, are building yourselves up by your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit,
21 keeping yourselves in the love of God, and anticipating the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
22 So certainly, reprove them, after they have been judged.
