This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
3 Friends, I was so enthusiastic to write to you concerning our salvation that we have in common, but I needed to write to you all, encouraging you to stand strong for the teaching that was entrusted to the believers at a certain point in time. 4 Because some people have quietly come into our groups who think they can take advantage of God’s grace to bring in immoral lifestyles and disowning the only master, and our boss who’s Yeshua the messiah. But they are destined for judgement.
5 [ref]Now I want to remind you that although you all know how Yeshua rescued our people out of Egypt, yet at the same time he destroyed the ones who didn’t believe. 6 Even the messengers who broke their own rules and left their own domain have been held in eternal chains in the darkness until the time of judgement in the great day. 7 [ref]Similarly Sodom and Amorah (Gomorrah) and the towns around them stay in our minds as an example of the judgement of eternal fire due to similar sexual perversions.
8 in the same way these dreamers defile their own bodies while rejecting authority and dishonouring those who should be honoured. 9 [ref]Even Michael, one of the top messengers, when he was arguing with the devil about Mosheh’s body, he didn’t belittle him, but left it to Yahweh to punish him. 10 But these people mock what they don’t even grasp, but they’ll be destroyed by what their animal instincts do understand. 11 Oh dear! Because they’ve followed the actions of Cain[ref] and have embraced the deception of Balaam[ref] for monetary gain, so too they’ll perish like Korah’s destruction.[ref] 12 These are the people who ruin your love feasts when they eat without shame and only look after themselves. They’re like clouds that are blown away by the wind without bringing the needed rain or trees that don’t produce any fruit then are doubly useless by falling over; 13 like wild waves in the ocean that foam in their own shame or like unreliable wandering stars that are already doomed to the darkest darkness in the next age.
14 [ref]Enoch (the seventh generation from Adam) prophesied way back then about these people, “Look, Yahweh, surrounded by tens of thousands of his holy messengers, came 15 to sentence everybody and to punish everyone who rejected God for everything they did that demonstrated this rejection and everything they said against him.” 16 This includes their grumbling and complaining, the fulfilling of their own lustful desires, the arrogant way that they spoke, and their flattering of others in order to gain from them.
Exo 12:51:
51 and so on that very day, Yahweh took all the Israelis out of Egypt grouped by their family divisions.
Num 14:29-30:
29 Indeed you’ll die there in the wilderness—all those men who were listed as being twenty years old and older that complained against me. 30 You all won’t enter that land that I would have used my power to settle you into. The only exceptions are Yefunneh’s son Kalev (Caleb) and Nun’s son Yehoshua (Joshua).
Gen 19:1-24:
19 So the two messengers arrived at Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting at the city gate. When Lot saw them, he got up to meet them and knelt down in front of them with his face to the ground. 2 Then he said, “Listen, my masters: Come with me to your slave’s home and wash your feet and stay the night. Then you can get up early and continue on your way.”
But they said, “No, rather we’ll just spend the night in the street.” 3 However, Lot insisted, so they followed him off the main road and went into his house. Then he prepared a feast for them and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.
4 However, before they went to bed, the men of Sodom surrounded the house—there were young and old from all parts of the city—5 and they called out to Lot, “Where are the men who came to your place tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can ‘use’ them.”[ref]
6 So Lot went out to them at the entrance of the house and shut the door behind him 7 and said, “My brothers, don’t do this evil. 8 Listen, I’ve got two virgin daughters. Please let me bring them out to you and you can treat them however you like. But don’t do anything to these men, because they’ve entered my house and so I’m responsible for them.”
9 But they insisted, “Stand back!” Then they said to each other, “This guy came to stay with us, and now he’s judging us. We’ll treat you worse than them!” Then they started pushing hard against Lot and came closer to break down the door. 10 But the two visitors reached out their hands and pulled Lot into the house and shut the door again. 11 Then they struck the men who were at the entrance of the house with blindness—all of them from the lowly to the prominent men—so that they gave up trying to find the door.[ref]
12 Then the men said to Lot, “Who else belongs to you here, a son-in-law or your sons or your daughters or anyone else who belongs to you in the city? Take them out from this place, 13 because we’re about to destroy it. The people have repeatedly cried out to Yahweh, so he’s sent us to destroy the city.”
14 Then Lot went out and spoke to his future sons-in-law who were engaged to his daughters, and he told them, “Hurry, get out of this place, because Yahweh is going to destroy the city!” But they thought he was just joking.
15 At dawn the next day, the two messengers urged Lot, saying, “Get up, take your wife and your two daughters who are here, so that all of you won’t be swept away in the punishment of the city.” 16 When Lot hesitated, because of Yahweh’s mercy for him, the men grabbed his hand and his wife’s hand and the hands of their daughters, and led them out beyond the edge of the city.[ref] 17 At that point one of them told Lot, “Flee for your lives! Don’t turn around and look behind you and don’t stop anywhere down in the plain. Escape up to the hills so you don’t get swept away!”
18 But Lot argued, “Not right now, my masters. 19 Listen, you’ve been kind to me and show us mercy by saving my life, but I won’t be able to make it to the hills because the disaster will overtake me and I’ll die. 20 Listen, there’s a small town nearby that I could flee to. Let me escape there. It’s only small. Then my life would be saved.”
21 “Okay then,” the man replied, “I’ll also grant your request about this so I won’t overthrow the town that you’re talking about. 22 Hurry up, escape there, because I am not able to do a thing until you go there.”
That’s why they renamed the town to ‘Zoar’ (which means ‘small’).
23 The sun had already risen by the time Lot and family reached Zoar. 24 Then Yahweh rained burning sulfur down onto Sodom and Amorah (Gomorrah),[ref]
Dan 10:13,21:
13 But the protector of the Persian kingdom held me back for twenty-one days. Then wow, Mika’el (Michael), one of God’s chief protectors, came to help me, because I’d been stuck there with the kings of Persia.[ref] 21 But I’ll tell you what’s inscribed in the Book of Truth. There’s no one standing strong with me against them, except your protector Mika’el.”
12:1:
12:1 The ending of time
12 The one who looked like a human also told me: At that time Mika’el (Michael), the powerful prince who stands guard over your people, will become active. There’ll be a time of distress such as never has been since there was a nation until that time, but at that time your people will be rescued—everyone whose name is found written in the book.[ref]
Rev 12:7:
7 Then a battle began in heaven, with Micha’el and his messengers making war on the dinosaur. But the dinosaur and his messengers fought back,[ref]
Deu 34:6:
6 and he buried him there in the valley opposite Beyt-Peor, but to this day, no one knows where his grave is.
Zech 3:2:
2 But Yahweh told Satan, “May Yahweh rebuke you, Satan—may Yahweh who’s chosen Yerushalem, rebuke you. Isn’t he energetic like a burning stick taken out of the fire?”[ref]
Gen 4:3-8:
3 Some months later, Kayin brought some of what he’d grown in the ground as an offering to Yahweh, 4 and also Abel brought the best portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. Now Yahweh was pleased with Abel and his offering,[ref] 5 but he didn’t even look towards Kayin and his offering. Kayin got very angry and his face showed his displeasure. 6 Then Yahweh said to Kayin, “Why are you so angry? And why are you frowning like that? 7 If you do what’s right, won’t you be honoured? But if you don’t do what’s right, sin is crouching in the doorway wanting to have you, but you have the control over it.”
8 One day, Kayin spoke to his brother Abel when they were out in the countryside, and then Kayin attacked him and killed him.[ref]
1Yhn 3:12:
12 not living like Cain who belonged to the evil one and went on to murder his brother.[ref] And why did he kill him? Because his own actions were evil, but his brother Abel followed God’s instructions.
Num 22–24:
9 ◙
15 ◙
16 Yahweh met with Bileam and gave him a message and told him, “Go back to Balak, and give him that message.” 17 So he returned to him where he was standing with the leaders from Moab beside the altar, and Balak asked him, “What did Yahweh say?”
18 Then Bileam gave his speech,
“Look here, Balak, and listen.
≈ Pay attention to me, son of Tsipor.
19 God doesn’t lie because he’s not a human being,
≈ and he’s not a mortal who might change his mind.
Whatever he’s said, he’ll do it.
≈ Anything he promised, he’ll make it happen.
20 Listen, I’ve received a command to bless.
≈ Yes, he’s decided to bless and I can’t reverse it.

31:16:
2Pe 2:15-16:
15 [ref]They have left the right path and gone astray, following the path of Bosor’s son Balaam who loved the wages of unrighteousness, 16 but he was scolded for his sin when a normally dumb donkey spoke to him with a man’s voice to stop his madness.
Num 16:1-35:
16:1 Korah’s rebellion
16 Now Korah (son of Yitshar, son of Kehat, son of Levi) along with Datah and Aviram (sons of Eliav) and On (son of Pelet)[ref] 2 rebelled against Mosheh along with 250 respected, Israeli community leaders. 3 They got together and challenged Mosheh and Aharon, “You think you’re great but the entire community is sacred and has Yahweh among us, so why do you consider yourselves more important than Yahweh’s community?”
4 When Mosheh heard that, he fell to his knees with his face to the ground 5 and responded to Korah and his supporters, “Tomorrow morning Yahweh will show who’s sacred and who belongs to him. Yahweh will present his chosen leader. make known who is to him and the holy one, and he will present to him, and whom he chooses he will present to him. 6 So Korah and supporters, bring incense burners 7 and put burning coals and incense in them, and bring them to Yahweh’s presence tomorrow. Then the man that Yahweh chooses will be the sacred one. It’s you Levites who think you’re great.”
8 Then Mosheh told Korah, “You Levites, please listen. 9 Isn’t it enough for you all that Yisrael’s god separated you from the rest of the Israeli community to present you to him to serve in Yahweh’s residence and to stand in front of the gatherings to minister to them? 10 Yahweh has presented you and your brothers, the other Levites to approach him. Are you all wanting the priesthood now also? 11 So it’s Yahweh that you and your group are opposing, not really Aharon that you’re all grumbling about.”
12 Then Mosheh summoned Eliav’s sons Datan and Aviram but they refused, “We won’t come. 13 Isn’t it enough that you brought us out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us here in the wilderness, without also making yourself the ruler over us? 14 What’s more, you didn’t bring us into a land flowing with milk and honey or give us an inheritance of land and vineyards. Will you gouge out the eyes of those Kanaanites so that we can defeat them? No, we won’t come.”
15 That made Mosheh very angry and he told Yahweh, “Don’t accept their grain offering. I’ve never taken even one donkey from them or done anything bad to any of them.”
16 Then Mosheh told Korah, “You and all your group, must appear in front of Yahweh tomorrow, as will Aharon. 17 Each man must bring his pan with incense burning in it and present it to Yahweh—all 250 of you as well as Aharon. 18 So the next day, they all brought their pans with burning coals and incense in them, and they stood at the entrance of the sacred tent, as did Mosheh and Aharon. 19 plus Korah had also assembled the entire community to oppose Mosheh and Aharon at the entrance to the sacred tent. Then Yahweh’s brilliance appeared to all the community 20 and Yahweh warned Mosheh and Aharon, 21 “Get away from all those people, then I can destroy them in an instant.”
22 However, Mosheh and Aharon fell to their knees with their faces to the ground and interceded, “God, you are the god who gives life to everything. Will you be angry at the entire community because of the sin of one man?” 23 So Yahweh told Mosheh, 24 “Tell the people to keep back from the homes of Korah, Datan, and Aviram.”
25 Then Mosheh walked to the homes of Datan and Aviram, and the Israeli elders followed behind him, 26 and he told the people, “Please keep back from the tents of these wicked men, and don’t touch anything of theirs, in case you get caught up in their disobedience.” 27 So the rest of the Israelis kept back from the residences of Korah, Datan, and Aviram. Meanwhile, Datan and Aviram had come out of their tents, and were standing at the entrances with their wives and children.
28 Then Mosheh said, “This is how you’ll all known that it was Yahweh who selected me for this role—it’s never been something that I aspired to: 29 If all these men die a natural death like most people, then Yahweh didn’t choose me, 30 but if Yahweh does something new and the ground opens its mouth and swallows them and their homes and tents and all their possessions, and if they then go down alive into their grave, then you’ll all know that it was because these men rejected Yahweh.”
31 As soon as Mosheh had finished speaking, the ground below those men split open 32 and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them and their homes and every man who backed Korah along with all their property. 33 They went down alive to their grave, along with everything they owned, and then the ground covered over them and they vanished from the community. 34 All the people who were around them fled away screaming because they were afraid of getting swallowed by the earth as well.
35 Then Yahweh sent fire that consumed the 250 men who were presenting incense.
Gen 5:18,21-24:
18 When Yared was 162 years old, he had a son named Hanoch (Enoch).
21 When Hanoch was 65 years old, he had a son named Metushalah (Methuselah). 22 After Metushalah’s birth, Hanoch walked with God for 300 years and had other sons and daughters. 23 So Hanoch lived a total of 365 years. 24 Hanoch walked with God, and then he was not there, because God took him away.[ref]
