PSEUDOPROPHETS AND PSEUDODOCTORS
And so be it also, pseudoprophets among the people - even as pseudodoctors become among you who surreptitiously introduce destructive heresies - even denying the Despotes who marketed them; and bring quick destruction on themselves. ² And many follow their destructive ways - who blaspheme the way of truth: ³ and in avarice they fabricate words and merchandise of you: whose judgment of old idles not and their destruction slumbers not. ⁴ For if Elohim spared not the angels who sinned but incarcerated them in Tartaros; and delivered them into caverns of darkness - guarded unto judgment; ⁵ and spared not the ancient cosmos; but guarded Noach the eighth - a preacher of justness; bringing in the cataclysm on the cosmos of the irreverent; ⁶ and incinerating the cities of Sedom and Amorah; condemned them with a catastrophe - setting an example to those all around who live irreverently; ⁷ and rescued just Lot worn down by the lecherous behavior of the illicit: ⁸ for that just one dwelling among them, seeing and hearing, tortured his just soul day by day with their untorahed works; ⁹ Yah Veh knows how to rescue the well-revering from testings and to guard the unjust to the day of judgment to punish: ¹⁰ and especially those walking after flesh in the panting of defilement, who disesteem lordship, audacious, selfpleasing, who tremble not to blaspheme glories. ¹¹ Whereas angels, being greater in might and dynamis, brought no blasphemous judgment against them with Yah Veh. ¹² And these, as physical irrational live beings, birthed to be captured and corrupted, blaspheme those in which they are unknowing; and corrupt in their own corruption; ¹³ and receive the reward of injustice, as they who deem it pleasure to indulge in the day time; - stains and blemishes, reveling in their own delusions as they revel with you; ¹⁴ eyes full of adultery, and restless from sin; entrapping unstable souls; a heart exercised with avarice; children of curse ¹⁵ who forsake the straight way and wander; following the way of Bilam of Beor who loved the rewards of injustice; ¹⁶ and was reproofed for his own torah violations: the voiceless burro uttering in a human voice forbad the insanity of the prophet. ¹⁷ These are waterless fountains - clouds driven by a whirlwind to whom the mist of darkness is guarded to the eons. ¹⁸ For by uttering overbulgings of vanity, through the pantings of the flesh, by lechery, they entrap them, who indeed escaped from them who remain in seduction. ¹⁹ While they pre-evangelize liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for by whom anyone is belittled, by him is he subservient. ²⁰ For if, having escaped the defilements of the cosmos through the knowledge of Adonay and Saviour Yah Shua Messiah, and entangled again by these and belittled, their finality becomes worse than at first. ²¹ For it had been better for them to not have known the way of justness, than having known, to turn from the holy misvah delivered to them. ²² But it happens to them according to the true proverb, The dog returns to his own vomit; and the hog that bathed to her wallowing in the mire. ^{Proverbs 26:11}
