The Greek that is translated as “worldly passions” in English is translated in the following ways:

• Tabasco Chontal: “it is necessary for us to leave off also that which we lust for on earth”
• Ojitlán Chinantec: “and all the evil our hearts beg for, like the hearts of worldly people beg for what is evil”
• Tenango Otomi: “that we should depart from the evil pleasures here on earth”
• Sayula Popoluca: “that we should depart from those who want the evil in the world” (source: John Beekman & Harwood Hess in Notes on Translation, March 1963, p. 1ff.)
