Romans 1:24-32

Modern English Version

²⁴ Therefore God gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their own bodies among themselves. ²⁵ They turned the truth of God into a lie and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

²⁶ For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. Their women exchanged the natural function for what is against nature. ²⁷ Likewise the men, leaving the natural function of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another, men with men doing that which is shameful, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.

²⁸ And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not proper. ²⁹ They were filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit. They are gossips, ³⁰ slanderers, God-haters, insolent, proud, boastful, inventors of evil things, and disobedient toward parents, ³¹ without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, calloused, and unmerciful, ³² who know the righteous requirement of God, that those who commit such things are worthy of death. They not only do them, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.
