2. which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
|
|||
|
|
3. concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh
|
|||
|
|
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
|
|||
|
|
4. and was declared to be the Son of God in power according to the Spirit of holiness by his resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
|
|||
|

|
|||
|
|
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
|
|||
|

9. For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I mention you
|
|||
|
|
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
|
|||
|
|
10. always in my prayers, asking that somehow by God’s will I may now at last succeed in coming to you.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|

<a id="18" name="18"></a>
|
|||
|
|
18. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth.

21. For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="22" name="22"></a>
|
|||
|
|
22. Claiming to be wise, they became fools,
|
|||
|
|
<a id="23" name="23"></a>
|
|||

|
23. and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.

|
|||
|
|

|
25. because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen.

|
|||

|
|||
|
|

|
|||

|
27. and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.
|
|||
|
|
<a id="28" name="28"></a>
|
|||
|
|
28. And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.

|
|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
<a id="31" name="31"></a>
|
|||
|
|

|
|||
|
|
<a id="32" name="32"></a>
|
|||
|
|
