For out of the heart proceed evil reasonings, murders, fornications, adulteries, thefts, false testimonies, blasphemies.
For within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil reasonings, adulteries, fornications, murders,
among whom we all indeed at one time lived in the lusts of our flesh, doing the will of the flesh and of the thoughts, and we were by nature the children of wrath, like the rest also:
for the mind of depravity is death: and the mind of the Spirit is life and peace. Therefore the mind of depravity is enmity toward God: for it is not subordinated to the law of God, for it is not able so to be. But those being in depravity are not able to please God.
But the works of carnality are manifest, which are fornication, uncleanness, debauchery, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, animosities, selfseekings, divisions, heresies, envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and things like unto these: which I tell you beforehand, as I did previously say to you, that those doing such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

all have gone away, they have all together become unprofitable; there is no one who is doing good, there is not one. Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips. Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness. Whose feet are swift to shed blood: destruction and misery are in their ways: and they have not known the way of peace. The fear of God is not before their eyes. But we know that so many things as the law speaks, it says to those under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may become guilty before God.
for all sinned, and come short of the glory of God;

because, knowing God, they did not glorify Him as God, neither were they thankful; but they became vain in their reasonings, and their foolish heart was darkened. Saying that they were wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the invisible God into the similitude of the likeness of corruptible man, and of birds, and of quadrupeds, and of creeping things. Therefore God gave them up, in the lusts of their hearts, to impurity, to dishonor their bodies among themselves: who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for evermore: amen. On account of this God gave them up to the lusts of dishonor: for indeed their women changed the natural use to that which is against nature: likewise also the men, having left the natural use of the woman, burned in their desire towards one another; men with men working out disgrace, and receiving the reward of their error among themselves which it behooved. And as they did not approve to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are inappropriate; being filled with all injustice, wickedness, vice, covetousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceitfulness, evil affection; whisperers, calumniators, haters of God, insulters, proud, arrogant, practitioners of evils, disobedient to parents, covenant-breakers, incontinent, without natural affections, unmerciful, who, knowing the rightfulness of God, that those who do such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but they even delight in those who are doing them.

For we have not a high priest who is not able to be touched with our infirmities; but one having been tempted as to all things like unto us, apart from sin.
who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth,
And the centurion seeing that which took place, glorified God, saying, Surely this was a righteous man.
He made him sin in our behalf, who knew no sin; in order that we may become the righteousness of God in him.
For such a high priest was indeed appropriate unto us, holy, free from sin, undefiled, having been separated from the sinners, and being higher than the heavens;
And you know that he was manifested that he might take away sins; and in him there is no sin.
