Romans 1:25-27
Holman Christian Standard Bible
25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie,(A) and worshiped and served something created instead of the Creator, who is praised forever.(B) Amen.
From Idolatry to Depravity
26 This is why God delivered them over to degrading passions.(C) For even their females exchanged natural sexual relations[a] for unnatural ones. 27 The males in the same way also left natural relations[b] with females and were inflamed in their lust for one another. Males committed shameless acts with males(D) and received in their own persons[c] the appropriate penalty of their error.

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.
