Jude 9-11
Good News Translation
9 (A)Not even the chief angel Michael did this. In his quarrel with the Devil, when they argued about who would have the body of Moses, Michael did not dare condemn the Devil with insulting words, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!” 10 But these people attack with insults anything they do not understand; and those things that they know by instinct, like wild animals, are the very things that destroy them. 11 (B)How terrible for them! They have followed the way that Cain took. For the sake of money they have given themselves over to the error that Balaam committed. They have rebelled as Korah rebelled, and like him they are destroyed.

New International Version
9 But even the archangel(A) Michael,(B) when he was disputing with the devil about the body of Moses,(C) did not himself dare to condemn him for slander but said, “The Lord rebuke you!”[a](D) 10 Yet these people slander whatever they do not understand, and the very things they do understand by instinct—as irrational animals do—will destroy them.(E)
11 Woe to them! They have taken the way of Cain;(F) they have rushed for profit into Balaam’s error;(G) they have been destroyed in Korah’s rebellion.(H)
