Romans 1:27-29
New International Version
27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.(A)
28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over(B) to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips,(C)
