2 Peter

2 Peter 2:10–11

10Such punishment is specially reserved for those who indulge the corrupt desires of the flesh and despise authority. Bold and self-willed, they are unafraid to slander glorious beings.d 11Yet not even angels, though greater in strength and power, dare to bring such slanderous charges against them before the Lord.
