Romans 1:25-32

25For they exchanged the truth of God for 1a 2lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, 3who is blessed 4forever. Amen.

26For this reason 5God gave them over to 6degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is 7unnatural, 27and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, 8men with men committing 9indecent acts and receiving in 10their own persons the due penalty of their error.

28And just as they did not see fit 11to acknowledge God any longer, 12God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper, 29being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are 13gossips, 30slanderers, 1415haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, 16disobedient to parents, 31without understanding, untrustworthy, 17unloving, unmerciful; 32and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of 18death, they not only do the same, but also 19give hearty approval to those who practice them.
