a-di-KOU-me-noi mis-THON a-di-KI-as hê-do-NÊN hê-GOU-me-noi tên en hê-ME-rai try-PHÊN SPEE-loi kai MÔ-moi en-try-PHÔN-tes en tais a-PA-tais au-TÔN sy-neu-ô-khou-ME-noi hy-MÎN
Exegesis
The clause hēgoumenoi hedonēn {ἡγούμενοι ἡδονὴν | hē-goú-me-noi hē-do-nḗn} ‘considering pleasure’ takes the accusative hedonēn and the phrase en hēmerā truphēn {ἐν ἡμέρᾳ τρυφήν | en hē-mé-ra tru-phḗn} ‘in daytime luxury’ to mark their shameless indulgence.
Finally, the participles entruphōntes {ἐντρυφῶντες | en-tru-phô-n-tes} ‘reveling’ and syneuōkhoumenoi {συνευωχούμενοι | sy-neu-ō-khoú-me-noi} ‘feasting together’ form coordinated actions: entruphōntes takes the dative phrase en tais apatais autōn {ἐν ταῖς ἀπάταις αὐτῶν | en taîs a-pá-tais au-tôn} ‘in their deceptions’, and syneuōkhoumenoi governs the dative hymin {ὑμῖν | hy-mîn} ‘with you’, highlighting the communal setting of their deception. English renders these participles as finite clauses linked by conjunctions and punctuation to express both consequence and corrupt behavior.

In context — 2 Peter 2:13
They suffer wrong as the reward of unrighteousness, counting it pleasure to indulge in daytime luxury; they are spots and blemishes, enjoying themselves in their deceptions while they feast with you.
