"Thereafter, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin. Yet truly sin, when it has been consummated, produces death. "
— James 1:15, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.”
“Then the lust, when it hath conceived, beareth sin: and the sin, when it is fullgrown, bringeth forth death. ”
“Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin; and the sin, when it is full grown, brings forth death.”
“Then when desire conceives, it gives birth to sin, and when sin is full grown, it gives birth to death.”
“Then, when concupiscence hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin. But sin, when it is completed, begetteth death.”
“Then when its time comes, desire gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is of full growth, gives birth to death.”
“Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.”
Blessed is the man who suffers temptation. For when he has been proven, he shall receive the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him.
No one should say, when he is tempted, that he was tempted by God. For God does not entice toward evils, and he himself tempts no one.
Yet truly, each one is tempted by his own desires, having been enticed and drawn away.
Thereafter, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin. Yet truly sin, when it has been consummated, produces death.
And so, do not choose to go astray, my most beloved brothers.
