Jude

Jude 1:8–10

⁸Yet in the same way these dreamers defile their bodies, reject authority, and slander glorious beings. ⁹But even the archangel Michael, when he disputed with the devil over the body of Moses, did not presume to bring a slanderous charge against him, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!”^b ¹⁰These men, however, slander what they do not understand, and like irrational animals, they will be destroyed by the things they do instinctively.
