NASB
"but he received a rebuke for his own transgression, for a mute donkey, speaking with a voice of a man, restrained the madness of the prophet."
— 2 Peter 2:16, NASB
“But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the prophet.”
“but he was rebuked for his own transgression: a dumb ass spake with man’s voice and stayed the madness of the prophet. ”
“but he was rebuked for his own disobedience. A mute donkey spoke with a man's voice and stopped the madness of the prophet.”
“yet was rebuked for his own transgression(a dumb donkey, speaking with a human voice, restrained the prophet’s madness).”
“But had a check of his madness, the dumb beast used to the yoke, which, speaking with man's voice, forbade the folly of the prophet.”
“But his wrongdoing was pointed out to him: an ass, talking with a man's voice, put a stop to the error of the prophet.”
“But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man’s voice forbad the madness of the prophet.”
suffering wrong as the wages of doing wrong. They count it a pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are stains and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions, as they carouse with you,
having eyes full of adultery that never cease from sin, enticing unstable souls, having a heart trained in greed, accursed children;
forsaking the right way, they have gone astray, having followed the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;
but he received a rebuke for his own transgression, for a mute donkey, speaking with a voice of a man, restrained the madness of the prophet.
These are springs without water and mists driven by a storm, for whom the black darkness has been reserved.
For speaking out arrogant words of vanity they entice by fleshly desires, by sensuality, those who barely escape from the ones who live in error,
promising them freedom while they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by what a man is overcome, by this he is enslaved.
