Being

When the Lord saw that man’s wickedness was widespread on the earth and that every scheme his mind thought of was nothing but evil all the time,

When the Lord smelled the pleasing aroma, He said to Himself, “I will never again curse the ground because of man, even though man’s inclination is evil from his youth. And I will never again strike down every living thing as I have done.

how much less one who is revolting and corrupt,
who drinks injustice like water?

The heart is more deceitful than anything else,
and incurable—who can understand it?

What then? Are we any better? Not at all! For we have previously charged that both Jews and Gentiles

are all under sin,

But the Scripture has imprisoned everything under sin’s power,

so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

And you were dead in your trespasses and sins

For we too were once foolish, disobedient, deceived, enslaved by various passions and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, detesting one another.
