Verse
Romans - ch 1 v 21 - 32
- because, having known God they did not glorify `Him' as God, nor gave thanks, but were made vain in their reasonings, and their unintelligent heart was darkened,
- professing to be wise, they were made fools,
- and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of fowls, and of quadrupeds, and of reptiles.
- Wherefore also God did give them up, in the desires of their hearts, to uncleanness, to dishonour their bodies among themselves;
- who did change the truth of God into a falsehood, and did honour and serve the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed to the ages. Amen.
- Because of this did God give them up to dishonourable affections, for even their females did change the natural use into that against nature;
- and in like manner also the males having left the natural use of the female, did burn in their longing toward one another; males with males working shame, and the recompense of their error that was fit, in themselves receiving.
- And, according as they did not approve of having God in knowledge, God gave them up to a disapproved mind, to do the things not seemly;
- having been filled with all unrighteousness, whoredom, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil dispositions; whisperers,
- evil-speakers, God-haters, insulting, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
- unintelligent, faithless, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful;
- who the righteous judgment of God having known -- that those practising such things are worthy of death -- not only do them, but also have delight with those practising them.
