Jude 5-7
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Remember: The Lord Punished The Unbelieving And The Immoral
5 Now I want to remind you— you knowing[a] all things— that the Lord[b], having once[c] saved[d] the people out of the land of Egypt, afterwards destroyed the ones not having believed. 6 And He has kept[e] angels— the ones not having kept their own domain[f], but having left-behind[g] their own dwelling[h]— in eternal bonds[i] 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[j]— having indulged-in-sexual-immorality and gone after other flesh— are set-forth as an example, undergoing the penalty[k] of eternal fire.

5 Though you already know all this,(A) I want to remind you(B) that the Lord[a] at one time delivered his people out of Egypt, but later destroyed those who did not believe.(C) 6 And the angels who did not keep their positions of authority but abandoned their proper dwelling—these he has kept in darkness, bound with everlasting chains for judgment on the great Day.(D) 7 In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah(E) and the surrounding towns(F) gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.(G)
