18For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of humans who hold back the truth in unrighteousness.19Because what is known of God is clear among them, for God has made it clear to them.20For his invisible things from the creation of the world are perceived, being understood by the works, both his eternal power and divinity, so that they are without excuse.21Because although they knew God they did not glorify him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their reasonings and their senseless heart was darkened.22Claiming to be wise, they became fools.23And they changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of an image of a perishable human and of birds and of four-footed creatures and of reptiles.24Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves.25They exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.26For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature.27And likewise the males, having left the natural use of the female, were inflamed in their lust toward one another, males with males committing what is indecent and receiving in themselves the penalty that was fitting for their error.28And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a depraved mind to do what is not fitting.29They are filled with all unrighteousness, evil, greed, and malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice; gossips.30Slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents.31Foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless.32Though they know God's righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.
