2 Peter 2:15-17
New King James Version
15 They have forsaken the right way and gone astray, following the way of (A)Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; 16 but he was rebuked for his iniquity: a dumb donkey speaking with a man’s voice restrained the madness of the prophet.
17 (B)These are wells without water, [a]clouds carried by a tempest, for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness [b]forever.

2 Peter 2:15-17
New International Version
15 They have left the straight way and wandered off to follow the way of Balaam(A) son of Bezer,[a] who loved the wages of wickedness. 16 But he was rebuked for his wrongdoing by a donkey—an animal without speech—who spoke with a human voice and restrained the prophet’s madness.(B)
17 These people are springs without water(C) and mists driven by a storm. Blackest darkness is reserved for them.(D)
