Romans 1:18-25

18

The wrathG3709 of GodG2316 is being revealedG601 fromG575 heavenG3772 againstG1909 allG3956 the godlessnessG763 andG2532 wickednessG93 of menG444 whoG3588 suppressG2722 theG3588 truthG225 byG1722 their wickednessG93. 19ForG1360 what may be knownG1110 about GodG2316 isG1510 plainG5318 toG1722 themG846, becauseG1063 GodG2316 has made it plainG5319 to themG846. 20ForG1063 sinceG575 the creationG2937 of the worldG2889 God’s invisible qualitiesG517, HisG846 eternalG126 powerG1411 andG2532 divine natureG2305, have been clearly seenG2529, being understoodG3539 fromG3588 His workmanshipG4161, so thatG1519 men areG1510 without excuseG379.

21ForG1360 although they knewG1097 GodG2316, they neither glorifiedG1392G3756 Him asG5613 GodG2316 nor gave thanksG2168 to Him, butG235 they became futileG3154 inG1722 theirG846 thinkingG1261 andG2532 darkenedG4654 in theirG846 foolishG801 heartsG2588. 22Although they claimedG5335 to beG1510 wiseG4680, they became foolsG3471, 23andG2532 exchangedG236 theG3588 gloryG1391 of theG3588 immortalG862 GodG2316 forG1722 imagesG3667G1504 of mortalG5349 manG444 andG2532 birdsG4071 andG2532 animalsG5074 andG2532 reptilesG2062.

24ThereforeG1352 GodG2316 gave them overG3860G846 inG1722 theG3588 desiresG1939 ofG3588 theirG846 heartsG2588 toG1519 impurityG167 for theG3588 dishonoringG818 of theirG846 bodiesG4983 withG1722 one another. 25They exchangedG3337 theG3588 truthG225 of GodG2316 forG1722 a lieG5579, andG2532 worshipedG4573 andG2532 servedG3000 theG3588 creatureG2937 rather thanG3844 theG3588 CreatorG2936, whoG3739 isG1510 foreverG1519G3588G165 worthy of praiseG2128!1 AmenG281.
