Jude 2-4
Legacy Standard Bible
2 (A)May mercy and peace and love (B)be multiplied to you.
3 (C)Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our (D)common salvation, I felt the necessity to write to you exhorting that you (E)contend earnestly for (F)the faith which was once for all (G)handed down to (H)the [a]saints. 4 For certain persons have (I)crept in unnoticed, those who were long beforehand [b](J)marked out for this condemnation, ungodly persons who turn (K)the grace of our God into (L)sensuality and (M)deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

2 Mercy, peace(A) and love be yours in abundance.(B)
The Sin and Doom of Ungodly People
3 Dear friends,(C) although I was very eager to write to you about the salvation we share,(D) I felt compelled to write and urge you to contend(E) for the faith(F) that was once for all entrusted to God’s holy people.(G) 4 For certain individuals whose condemnation was written about[a] long ago have secretly slipped in among you.(H) They are ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord.(I)

Contend for the Faith
3 Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you (B)concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting (C)you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints. 4 For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord [a]God and our Lord Jesus Christ.
