STRONGS NT 3806: πάθος

πάθος, πάθους, τό (παθεῖν, πάσχω), from Aeschylus and Herodotus down; equivalent to πάθημα (which see; (the latter differs from πάθος (if at all) only in being the more individualizing and concrete term; cf. Schmidt, Synonym, chapter 24 § 11));

1. whatever befalls one, whether it be sad or joyous; specifically, a calamity, mishap, evil, affliction.

2. a feeling which the mind suffers, an affection of the mind, emotion, passion; passionate desire; used by the Greeks in either a good or a bad sense (cf. Aristotle, eth. Nic. 2, 4 (cf. Cope, Introduction to Aristotles Rhet., p. 133f; and his note on rhet. 2, 22, 16)). In the N. T. in a bad sense, depraved passion: Colossians 3:5; πάθη ἀτιμίας, vile passions, Romans 1:26 (see ἀτιμία); ἐν πάθει ἐπιθυμίας (in the passion of lust), genitive of apposit. (Winer's Grammar, § 59, 8 a.), 1 Thessalonians 4:5. [SYNONYMS: πάθος, ἐπιθυμία: πάθος presents the passive, ἐπιθυμία the active side of a vice; ἐπιθυμία is more comprehensive in meaning than πάθος; ἐπιθυμία is (evil) desire, πάθος ungovernable desire. Cf. Trench, § lxxxvii.; Lightfoot on Colossians 3:5.]

inordinate affection, lust.

From the alternate of pascho; properly, suffering ("pathos"), i.e. (subjectively) a passion (especially concupiscence) -- (inordinate) affection, lust.
