15Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;Select 2 Peter 2:15

16But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the prophet.Select 2 Peter 2:16

17These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.Select 2 Peter 2:17

18For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.Select 2 Peter 2:18
