(24)Wherefore God also gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, to dishonor their bodies among themselves; (25)who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (26)For this cause God gave them up to vile passions; for their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature; (27)and in like manner the men also, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves the recompense of their error which was meet. (28)And as they did not choose to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not becoming; (29)being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity; whisperers, (30)slanderers, haters of God, overbearing, proud, boasters, devisers of evil things, disobedient to parents, (31)without understanding, covenant-breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful; (32)who, knowing the judgment of God, that they who commit such things are worthy of death, not only do them, but have pleasure in those who do them. II. WHEREFORE thou art without excuse, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest; for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. (2)Now we know that the judgment of God is according to truth, upon those who commit such things. (3)And reckonest thou this, O man, that judgest those who do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God? (4)Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and forbearance, and long-suffering, not knowing that the goodness of God is leading thee to repentance; (5)and after thy hardness and impenitent heart, art treasuring up for thyself wrath in the day of wrath and of the revelation of the righteous judgment of God; (6)who will render to every man according to his deeds; (7)to those who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life; (8)but to those who are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, (9)tribulation and distress, upon every soul of man that works evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Greek; (10)but glory, and honor, and peace, to every man that works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
