22 Professing to be wise, they become foolish,

23 and change the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man, and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

24 Therefore God also gives them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,

25 who change the truth of God into the lie, and fear and serve the created things more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

26 For this reason God gives them up to vile passions. For even their women change the natural use for what is contrary to nature.

27 Likewise also the men, abandoning the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another, men with men performing what is shameful, and receiving the retribution within themselves, the penalty which is fitting for their error.
