13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country.

15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.

16 But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.

25 For they exchanged the truth of God for [a](A)falsehood, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, (B)who is blessed [b]forever. Amen.

26 For this reason (C)God gave them over to (D)degrading passions; for their women exchanged natural relations for that which is contrary to nature, 27 and likewise the men, too, abandoned natural relations [c]with women and burned in their desire toward one another, (E)males with males committing [d]shameful acts and receiving in [e]their own persons the due penalty of their error.

28 And just as they did not see fit [f]to acknowledge God, (F)God gave them up to a depraved mind, to do those things that are not proper, 29 people having been filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, and evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice; they are (G)gossips, 30 slanderers, [g](H)haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, (I)disobedient to parents,

25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie,(A) and worshiped and served created things(B) rather than the Creator—who is forever praised.(C) Amen.(D)

26 Because of this, God gave them over(E) to shameful lusts.(F) Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones.(G) 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.(H)

28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over(I) 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.

26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change 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 that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
