13 For such men are ^pfalse apostles, ^qdeceitful workmen, ^rdisguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as ^san angel of light. 15 So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as ^tservants of righteousness. ^uTheir end will correspond to their deeds.

2 Peter 2:18-20

18 For, ^vspeaking loud boasts of folly, they entice by sensual passions of the flesh those who are barely ^wescaping from those who live in error. 19 They promise them ^xfreedom, ^ybut they themselves are slaves ^{▼▼Greek bondservants} of corruption. For whatever overcomes a person, to that he is enslaved. 20 For if, ^aaafter they have escaped the defilements of the world ^abthrough the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, ^acthe last state has become worse for them than the first.
