For that would have been wicked, a sin to be judged.

For that would be a heinous crime; that would be an iniquity to be punished by the judges

For lust is a shameful sin, a crime that should be punished.

For that would be a disgrace; it would be an iniquity deserving punishment.

For this is an heinous crime; Yea, it is an iniquity to be punished by the judges.

For that would be wickedness; Yes, it would be iniquity deserving of judgment.

“If I’ve let myself be seduced by a woman and conspired to go to bed with her, Fine, my wife has every right to go ahead and sleep with anyone she wants to. For disgusting behavior like that, I’d deserve the worst punishment you could hand out. Adultery is a fire that burns the house down; I wouldn’t expect anything I count dear to survive it.

“For that would be a lustful crime; Moreover, it would be wrongdoing punishable by judges.

“For adultery is a heinous and lustful crime; Moreover, it would be a sin punishable by the judges. [Deut 22:22; John 8:5]

For I would have committed a shameful act, an iniquity to be judged.
