2 Peter 2:8 in Context — 2 Peter 2
6 E condenou as cidades de Sodoma e Gomorra à destruição, reduzindo-as a cinza, e pondo-as como exemplo para os que vivessem impiamente;
7 E livrou ao justo Ló, [que estava] cansado do corrupto modo de viver dos maus.
8 (Porque, [enquanto] aquele justo habitava entre eles, todo dia ele atormentava sua justa alma, ao ver e ouvir as [suas] injustas obras).
9 [Assim] o Senhor sabe livrar os devotos das tentações, e reservar aos injustos para o dia do julgamento, para serem punidos.
10 Porém principalmente aos que segundo a carne andam em mau desejo de impureza, e desprezam as autoridades; atrevidos, agradando a si mesmos, não tendo medo de insultar as [coisas dignas de] glórias.
