American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these: fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousies, wraths, factions, divisions, {Greek: heresies.}parties,
envyings, drunkenness, revellings, and such like; of which I {Or, tell you plainly}forewarn you, even as I did {Or, tell you plainly}forewarn you, that they who practise such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh saints;
For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification.
And many shall follow their lascivious doings; by reason of whom the way of the truth shall be evil spoken of.
and delivered righteous Lot, sore distressed by the lascivious life of the wicked
For, uttering great swelling words of vanity, they entice in the lusts of the flesh, by lasciviousness, those who are just escaping from them that live in error;
His disciples remembered that it was written, {Psalm 69:9.}Zeal for thy house shall eat me up.
For I am jealous over you with {Greek: a jealously of God.}a godly jealousy: for I espoused you to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ.
for ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you jealousy and strife, are ye not carnal, and do ye not walk after the manner of men?
For I fear, lest by any means, when I come, I should find you not such as I would, and should myself be found of you such as ye would not; lest by any means there should be strife, jealousy, wraths, factions, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, {Or, disorders}tumults;
And they were all filled with wrath in the synagogue, as they heard these things;
Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and railing, be put away from you, with all malice:
but unto them that are factious, and obey not the truth, but obey unrighteousness, shall be wrath and indignation,
For I fear, lest by any means, when I come, I should find you not such as I would, and should myself be found of you such as ye would not; lest by any means there should be strife, jealousy, wraths, factions, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, {Or, disorders}tumults;
{Or, but they that are factious proclaim Christ, not &c.}but the other proclaim Christ of faction, not sincerely, thinking to raise up affliction for me in my bonds.
But if ye have bitter jealousy and faction in your heart, glory not and lie not against the truth.
For where jealousy and faction are, there is confusion and every vile deed.
doing nothing through faction or through vainglory, but in lowliness of mind each counting other better than himself;
But there arose false prophets also among the people, as among you also there shall be false teachers, who shall privily bring in {Or, sects of perdition}destructive heresies, denying even the Master that bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.
