Exegesis
The participles ἀρνούμενοι {ἀρνούμενοι | arnoúmenoi} ‘denying’ and ἐπάγοντες {ἐπάγοντες | epágontes} ‘bringing upon’ describe how their denial of δεσπότην {δεσπότην | despótēn} ‘Master’ results in swift destruction, ταχινὴν ἀπώλειαν {ταχινὴν | tachinḕn, ἀπώλειαν | apṓleian}.
In context — 2 Peter 2:1
Yet false prophets also arose among the people, and in like fashion false teachers will be among you, who will smuggle in destructive heresies and, by denying the Master who bought them, bring upon themselves swift destruction .
