 Lawless and unruly, ungodly and sinners, unholy and profane, beaters of fathers and beaters of mothers. Such are the pairs in this dark list of human depravity first, the inner spring of self-will and its more open insubjection; next, irreverence God-ward, and evil man-ward; thirdly, impiety and positive profanity; fourthly, insolent violence towards parents, without going so far as killing.

knowing this that lawa is not laid down for a righteous person, but for lawless and insubordinate, for ungodly and sinful, for unholy and profane, for smitersb of fathers and smiters of mothers, for murderers,

WK Translation Notes

+
a
It is not "the law" nor "a law," but "law" as such; and the word "ou" (no), negates any such thing as law being enacted for a righteous person. The general form is intended in all cases with or without prepositions, where there is no article.
b
The simple verb certainly means to thresh, or beat, rather than to kill; and the compound in well-known classic Greek is distinguished, as here, from man-slayers or murders.
