1 But know this, that in the last days grievous times shall come.
         
                                
                        2 For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, haughty, railers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
         
                                
                        3 without natural affection, implacable, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good,
         
                                
                        4 traitors, headstrong, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God;
         
                                
                        5 holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power therefore. From these also turn away.
         
                                
                        6 For of these are they that creep into houses, and take captive silly women laden with sins, led away by divers lusts,
         
                                
                        7 ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
