18. for they said to you, “In the end time there will be scoffers following according to their own ungodly desires.”
19. These are the ones who cause divisions, worldly, not having the Spirit.
20. But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith, by praying in the Holy Spirit,
21. keep yourselves in the love of God, looking forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life.
22. And have mercy on those who doubt,
23. and save others by snatching them from the fire, and have mercy on others with fear, hating even the tunic stained by the flesh.
24. Now to the one who is able to protect you from stumbling and make you to stand before his glory blameless with exultation,
25. to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, power, and authority before all time and now and for all eternity. Amen.
