8 In the very same way, on the strength of their dreams these ungodly people pollute their own bodies, reject authority and heap abuse on celestial beings.

8 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.

8 In the same way, these people—who claim authority from their dreams—live immoral lives, defy authority, and scoff at supernatural beings.

8 Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak evil of dignitaries.

8 It is the same with these people who have entered your group. They are guided by dreams and make themselves filthy with sin. They reject God’s authority and speak against the angels.

8 Yet in like manner these also in their dreamings defile the flesh, and set at nought dominion, and rail at dignities.

8 Yet in like manner these dreamers also defile the flesh, and despise lordship, and speak railingly against dignities.

8 Yet, in a similar way, the people who slipped in among you are dreamers. They contaminate their bodies with sin, reject the Lord’s authority, and insult his glory.

8 Nevertheless, these dreamers likewise defile their flesh, reject authority, and blaspheme glorious ones.

8 Yet in the same way these dreamers also defile the flesh, reject authority, and slander the glorious ones.

8 Despite that, in the same way also these men, because of their dreams, defile the flesh and reject authority and blaspheme majestic beings.

8 In the very same way, those dreamers pollute their own bodies. They don’t accept authority. They speak evil things against heavenly beings.

8 Yet in the same way these men, also by dreaming, defile the flesh, and reject authority, and revile angelic majesties.
