Verse
Romans - ch 1 v 21 - 32
- Because, knowing God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but fell into folly in their thoughts, and their heart without understanding was darkened:
- professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
- and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of an image of corruptible man and of birds and quadrupeds and reptiles.
- Wherefore God gave them up also in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, to dishonour their bodies between themselves:
- who changed the truth of God into falsehood, and honoured and served the creature more than him who had created it, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
- For this reason God gave them up to vile lusts; for both their females changed the natural use into that contrary to nature;
- and in like manner the males also, leaving the natural use of the female, were inflamed in their lust towards one another; males with males working shame, and receiving in themselves the recompense of their error which was fit.
- And according as they did not think good to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind to practise unseemly things;
- being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil dispositions; whisperers,
- back-biters, hateful to God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
- void of understanding, faithless, without natural affection, unmerciful;
- who knowing the righteous judgment of God, that they who do such things are worthy of death, not only practise them, but have fellow delight in those who do them.
