Being

And when the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was increased upon the earth, and that all the imagination and thoughts of his heart was only evil continually,

And the LORD smelled a sweet savour and said in his heart, "I will henceforth no more curse the earth for man's sake, for the imagination of man's heart is evil even from the very youth of him. Moreover I will not destroy from henceforth all that liveth as I have done.

How much more then an abominable and vile man, which drinketh wickedness like water?

Among all things living, man hath the most deceitful and unsearchable heart. Who shall then know it?

What say we then? Are we better than they? No, in no wise. For we have already proved how that both Jews and gentiles are all under sin,

But the scripture concluded all things under sin, that the promise by the faith of Jesus Christ should be given unto them that believe.

And you hath he quickened also, that were dead in trespass and sin:

For we ourselves also were in times past, unwise, disobedient, deceived, in danger to lusts, and to divers manners of voluptuousness, living in maliciousness and envy, full of hate, hating one another.
