¹⁵When they are allowed to grow, they give birth to sin. When sin has grown up, it gives birth to death.

Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.

Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.

Then after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and when sin is fully grown, it gives birth to death.

These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow, it gives birth to death.

Then desire, after it has conceived, gives birth to sin, and sin, when it is brought to completion, gives birth to death.

Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
