The New Testament: Translated From the Original Greek, With Chronological Arrangement of the Sacred Books, and Improved Divisions of Chapters and Verses.
Bible. New Testament
1 [1:18]FOR the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all
impiety and wickedness of men who hold the truth in wickedness,
[1:19]because what can be known of God is manifest among them; for God
has manifested [himself] to them. [1:20]For his invisible [attributes]
are clearly seen from the creation of the world, being perceived by the
things which are made, even his eternal power and deity, so that they
have no defense, [1:21]because having known God they glorified him not
as God neither were thankful, but became vain in their reasonings and
their ignorant mind was darkened. [1:22]Saying that they were wise they
became foolish, [1:23]and changed the glory of the imperishable God
into the likeness of the image of perishable man, and of birds, and
quadrupeds, and reptiles.
2 [1:24]Wherefore God also gave them up with the desires of their
hearts to impurity, to disgrace their bodies among themselves,
[1:25]who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and
served the creation more than the Creator, who is blessed forever, amen.
3 [1:26]Therefore God gave them up to infamous affections; for their
females changed a natural enjoyment for that which is against nature,
[1:27]and in like manner also the males, leaving the natural enjoyment
of the female, became the subjects of inordinate desires for each
other, males with males committing indecency, and receiving in return
the recompense of their error which was fit.
4 [1:28]And as they did not choose to retain God in their knowledge,
God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do things which are not
proper, [1:29]being filled with all wickedness, malice, covetousness,
vice, full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil dispositions,
whisperers, [1:30]evil speakers, haters of God, injurious, proud,
boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
[1:31]unintelligent, covenant-breakers, without natural affection,
unmerciful, [1:32]who knowing the ordinance of God, that those who do
such things deserve death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in
those who do them.
