Romans 1:17-32

BLB(i) 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith, as it has been written: “And the righteous will live by faith.” 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven upon all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, suppressing the truth by unrighteousness, 19 because the known of God is manifest among them, for God has revealed it to them. 20 For from the creation of the world His invisible qualities, both His eternal power and divinity, are clearly seen, being understood by the things made, for them to be without excuse. 21 For having known God, they glorified Him not as God, or were thankful; but they became futile in their thinking and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and they changed the glory of the immortal God into a likeness of an image of mortal man and birds and quadrupeds and creeping things. 24 Therefore God gave them up in the desires of their hearts to impurity to dishonor their bodies between themselves, 25 who changed the truth of God into falsehood, and reverenced and served the created thing beyond the One having created it, who is blessed to the ages! Amen. 26 Because of this, God gave up them to passions of dishonor. For even their females changed the natural use into that contrary to nature. 27 And likewise also the males, having left the natural use of the female, were inflamed in their desire toward one another, males with males, working out shame and receiving in themselves the recompense which was fitting of their error. 28 And as they did not see fit to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a depraved mind, to do things not being proper; 29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness; gossips, 30 slanderers, hateful to God, insolent, arrogant, boastful; inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents; 31 foolish, untrustworthy, heartless, unmerciful; 32 who having known the righteous judgment of God, that those doing such things are worthy of death, not only are practicing them, but are also approving of those practicing them.
