14. Enoch, who lived seven generations after Adam, prophesied about these people when he said, "See, the Lord comes with his countless holy ones,
15. to execute judgment on everyone and to convict everyone about every ungodly deed they have committed in their ungodliness as well as all the harsh things that sinful ungodly people have said against him."
16. These are faultfinding grumblers, living according to their own desires. They speak arrogant words and they show partiality to people when they want a favor in return.
17. But you, dear friends, remember the words spoken beforehand by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ.
18. They said to you, "In the end time scoffers will come living according to their own ungodly desires."
19. These people create divisions. Since they don’t have the Spirit, they are worldly.
20. But you, dear friends: build each other up on the foundation of your most holy faith, pray in the Holy Spirit,
21. keep each other in the love of God, wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will give you eternal life.
22. Have mercy on those who doubt.
23. Save some by snatching them from the fire. Fearing God, have mercy on some, hating even the clothing contaminated by their sinful urges.
24. To the one who is able to protect you from falling, and to present you blameless and rejoicing before his glorious presence,
