Second letter of Peter 2:17

These [false teachers] are
fountains without water
and clouds [with longed-for water] driven by a storm.
Deep darkness awaits them.
[In a dry climate, drinking water and life-giving rain are essential. These images describe how the teachers make promises they cannot keep. They are worthless wells, see Jer. 2:13.]
