# led astray ... by various passions and pleasures # We were led astray and enslaved by various passions and pleasures
Paul speaks of "passions and pleasures" as if they were people that could lead others astray and enslave them. Here "led astray" is a metaphor that means to cause someone to believe what is not true. Here "enslaved by various passions and pleasures" is a metaphor for not being able to control one's self. This can be stated in active form. AT: "We deceived ourselves and only did what was pleasing to us" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
Paul speaks of our sinful desires as if they were people who led us off the right path. AT: "we were deceived" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification]]) (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
# enslaved by various passions and pleasures
Paul speaks of our formerly extremely strong desires to do wrong as if they had been our slavemasters. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification]]) (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
