17 For the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven upon all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men and upon those holding back the truth in unrighteousness; 19 because what is known of God is apparent among them; for God manifested it to them. 20 For the invisible things of him are clearly seen from the creation of the world, being perceived by the things made, both his eternal power and divinity; that they may be without defense; 21 because having known God, they did not glorify him as God, nor gave-thanks, but became-futile in their reasonings and their heart was darkened without understanding. 22 They were foolish, claiming to be wise, 23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into the likeness of an image of corruptible man and of birds and of four footed mammals and of reptiles.
24 Hence also, God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts into uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves. 25 They exchanged the truth of God into a lie and worshiped and gave-divine service to the created thing contrary to the one who created it, who is gracious forever. Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave them up to passions of dishonor; for even their females exchanged the natural use into what is contrary to anything natural; 27 and the males also likewise, having left the natural use of the female, burned in their lust toward one another, males with males working forth indecency and receiving in themselves the recompense which was essential from their error.
28 And just-as they did not approve to have God in their full knowledge, God gave them up to an unapproved mind, to do those things which are not proper. 29 They have been filled with all: unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, greed, malice; full of: envy, murder, strife, treachery, maliciousness. They are: malicious whisperers, 30 slandering, spiteful to God, insolent, haughty, braggarts, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 without understanding, covenant-breakers, cold-hearted, implacable and unmerciful. 32 Who, having fully known the ordinance of God, (that those practicing such things are worthy of death), are not only practicing the same things, but also are consenting with those who are practicing the same things.
