Jude 1:6 in Context — Jude 1

4 Car il s’est glissé parmi vous certains hommes, dont la condamnation est écrite depuis longtemps, des impies, qui changent la grâce de notre Dieu en dissolution, et qui renient notre seul maître et Seigneur Jésus-Christ.

5 Je veux vous rappeler, à vous qui savez fort bien toutes ces choses, que le Seigneur, après avoir sauvé le peuple et l’avoir tiré du pays d’Égypte, fit ensuite périr les incrédules;

6 qu’il a réservé pour le jugement du grand jour, enchaînés éternellement par les ténèbres, les anges qui n’ont pas gardé leur dignité, mais qui ont abandonné leur propre demeure;

7 que Sodome et Gomorrhe et les villes voisines, qui se livrèrent comme eux à l’impudicité et à des vices contre nature, sont données en exemple, subissant la peine d’un feu éternel.

8 Malgré cela, ces hommes aussi, entraînés par leurs rêveries, souillent pareillement leur chair, méprisent l’autorité et injurient les gloires.
