Ok, but wouldn't you agree that the KJV renders that sentiment in a much better fashion?

"Even as Sodom and Gomorrha,
and the cities about them in like manner,
giving themselves over to fornication,
and going after strange flesh,
are set forth for an example,
suffering the vengeance of eternal fire."

I read both King James and the Amplified; was just posting the Amplified for those not familiar with its version.

Amplified can sometimes be a little wordy. But for many verses it does give the complete meaning of the original text. It’s good for study.
