Romans 1:22-29
221ProfessingG5335 to be wiseG4680, they becameG3471 foolsG3471, 23and 2exchangedG236 the gloryG1391 of the incorruptibleG862 GodG2316 for an imageG1504 in the formG3667 of corruptibleG5349 manG444 and of birdsG4071 and four-footedG5074 animalsG5074 and 3crawlingG2062 creaturesG2062.
24ThereforeG1352 4GodG2316 gaveG3860 them overG3860 in the lustsG1939 of their heartsG2588 to impurityG167, soG1519 that their bodiesG4983 would be 5dishonoredG818 amongG1722 them. 25For they exchangedG3337 the truthG225 of GodG2316 for 6a 7lieG5579, and worshipedG4573 and servedG3000 the creatureG2937 ratherG3844 thanG3844 the CreatorG2936, 8whoG3739 is blessedG2128 9foreverG165. AmenG281.
26For thisG3778 reasonG1223 10GodG2316 gaveG3860 them overG3860 to 11degradingG819 passionsG3806; for their womenG2338 exchangedG3337 the naturalG5446 functionG5540 for that which is 12unnaturalG3844G5449, 27and in the sameG3668 wayG3668 alsoG2532 the menG733 abandonedG863 the naturalG5446 functionG5540 of the womanG2338 and burnedG1572 in their desireG3715 towardG1519 oneG240 anotherG240, 13menG733 with menG733 committingG2716 14indecentG808 actsG808 and receivingG618 in 15their ownG1438 personsG1438 the dueG1163 penaltyG489 of their errorG4106.
28And justG2531 as they did not seeG1381 fitG1381 16to acknowledgeG2192G1922 GodG2316 any longer, 17GodG2316 gaveG3860 them overG3860 to a depravedG96 mindG3563, to doG4160 thoseG3588 things which are not properG2520, 29being filledG4137 with allG3956 unrighteousnessG93, wickednessG4189, greedG4124, evilG2549; fullG3324 of envyG5355, murderG5408, strifeG2054, deceitG1388, maliceG2550; they are 18gossipsG5588,
