2 Petrus 2:17

2:17 These men ¹  are waterless springs and mists driven by a storm, for whom the utter depths of darkness ²  have been reserved.

[2:17]  ¹ tn Although some translations have simply “these” or “these people,” since in v. 14 they are described as having eyes “full of an adulteress,” men are in view.

[2:17]  ² tn Grk “utter darkness of darkness.” Verse 4 speaks of wicked angels presently in “chains of utter darkness,” while the final fate of the false teachers is a darker place still.
