KJV_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

21 G1360 Because G1097 that, when they knew [G5631] G2316 God G1392 , they glorified [G5656] G3756 him not G5613 as G2316 God G2228 , neither G2168 were thankful [G5656] G235 ; but G3154 became vain [G5681] G1722 in G846 their G1261 imaginations G2532 , and G846 their G801 foolish G2588 heart G4654 was darkened [G5681] .

22 G5335 Professing themselves [G5723] G1511 to be [G5750] G4680 wise G3471 , they became fools [G5681] ,

23 G2532 And G236 changed [G5656] G1391 the glory G862 of the uncorruptible G2316 God G1722 into G1504 an image G3667 made like G5349 to corruptible G444 man G2532 , and G4071 to birds G2532 , and G5074 fourfooted beasts G2532 , and G2062 creeping things.

24 G1352 Wherefore G2316 God G2532 also G3860 gave G846 them G3860 up [G5656] G1519 to G167 uncleanness G1722 through G1939 the lusts G846 of their own G2588 hearts G818 , to dishonour [G5729] G846 their own G4983 bodies G1722 between G1438 themselves:

25 G3748 Who G3337 changed [G5656] G225 the truth G2316 of God G1722 into G5579 a lie G2532 , and G4573 worshipped [G5662] G2532 and G3000 served [G5656] G2937 the creature G3844 more than G2936 the Creator [G5660] G3739 , who G2076 is [G5748] G2128 blessed G1519 for G165 ever G281 . Amen.

26 G1223 For G5124 this G2316 cause God G3860 gave G846 them G3860 up [G5656] G1519 unto G819 vile G3806 affections G1063 : for G5037 even G846 their G2338 women G3337 did change [G5656] G5446 the natural G5540 use G1519 into G3844 that which is against G5449 nature:

27 G5037 And G3668 likewise G2532 also G730 the men G863 , leaving [G5631] G5446 the natural G5540 use G2338 of the woman G1572 , burned [G5681] G1722 in G846 their G3715 lust G1519 one toward another G240 G730 ; men G1722 with G730 men G2716 working [G5740] G808 that which is unseemly G2532 , and G618 receiving [G5723] G1722 in G1438 themselves G489 that recompence G846 of their G4106 error G3739 which G1163 was meet [G5713] .

28 G2532 And G2531 even as G1381 they did G3756 not G1381 like [G5656] G2192 to retain [G5721] G2316 God G1722 in G1922 their knowledge G2316 , God G3860 gave G846 them G3860 over [G5656] G1519 to G96 a reprobate G3563 mind G4160 , to do [G5721] G2520 those things which are G3361 not G2520 convenient [G5723] ;

ERV⁽ⁱ⁾ ²¹ because that, knowing God, they glorified him not as God, neither gave thanks; but became vain in their reasonings, and their senseless heart was darkened. ²² Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, ²³ and changed the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things. ²⁴ Wherefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts unto uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonoured among themselves: ²⁵ for that they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. ²⁶ For this cause God gave them up unto vile passions: for their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature: ²⁷ and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working unseemliness, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was due. ²⁸ And even as they refused to have God in [their] knowledge, God gave them up unto a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
