Romans 1:25-32
25For they exchanged the truth of God for 12falsehood, 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 natural relations for that which is contrary to nature, 27and likewise the men, too, abandoned natural relations 7with women and burned in their desire toward one another, 8males with males committing 9shameful acts and receiving in 10their own persons the due penalty of their error.
28And just as they did not see fit 11to acknowledge God, 12God gave them up to a depraved mind, to do those things that are not proper, 29people having been filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, and evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice; they are 13gossips, 30slanderers, 1415haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, 16disobedient to parents, 31without understanding, untrustworthy, 17unfeeling, and 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 19approve of those who practice them.
