16 These are they who murmur and complain of every thing, while walking according to their own desires; their mouth speaking portentous things, and extolling persons for the sake of gain.

17 But you, my beloved, remember those words which before were spoken by the apostles of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha,

18 who told you that in the last times there would be those who scoff, who according to their own desires go after wickedness.
