Jude 6-8
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
6 And He has kept[a] angels— the ones not having kept their own domain[b], but having left-behind[c] their own dwelling[d]— in eternal bonds[e] under gloom for the judgment of the great day. 7 Just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them in like manner to these[f]— having indulged-in-sexual-immorality and gone after other flesh— are set-forth as an example, undergoing the penalty[g] of eternal fire.
Yet These People Defile The Flesh And Reject God’s Authority. Woe To Them
8 Yet in the same way also these dreaming ones are defiling the flesh and rejecting authority[h] and blaspheming[i] glories[j]!
