Romans 1:28-32
English Standard Version
28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, (A)God gave them up to (B)a debased mind to do (C)what ought not to be done. 29 They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32 Though they know (D)God's righteous decree that those who practice such things (E)deserve to die, they not only do them but (F)give approval to those who practice them.

Romans 1:28-32
Holman Christian Standard Bible
28 And because they did not think it worthwhile to acknowledge God, God delivered them over to a worthless mind to do what is morally wrong. 29 They are filled with all unrighteousness,[a] evil, greed, and wickedness. They are full of envy, murder, quarrels, deceit, and malice. They are gossips,(A) 30 slanderers, God-haters, arrogant, proud, boastful,(B) inventors of evil, disobedient to parents,(C) 31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving,[b](D) and unmerciful. 32 Although they know full well God’s just sentence—that those who practice such things deserve to die[c](E)—they not only do them, but even applaud[d](F) others who practice them.
