Romans 1:24-31

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁴ Therefore ^(A)God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be ^(B)dishonored among them. ²⁵ For they exchanged the truth of God for ^[a]a ^(C)lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, ^(D)who is blessed ^[b]forever. Amen.

²⁶ For this reason ^(E)God gave them over to ^(F)degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is ^[c]unnatural, ²⁷ and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, ^(G)men with men committing ^[d]indecent acts and receiving in ^[e]their own persons the due penalty of their error.

²⁸ And just as they did not see fit ^[f]to acknowledge God any longer, ^(H)God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper, ²⁹ being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are ^(I)gossips, ³⁰ slanderers, ^[g](J)haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, ^(K)disobedient to parents, ³¹ without understanding, untrustworthy, ^(L)unloving, unmerciful;
