^{22 Ref} Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

^{23 Ref} and changed the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things.

^{24 Ref} Wherefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts unto uncleanness, that their bodies should be dishonored among themselves:

^{25 Ref} for that they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

^{26 Ref} For this cause God gave them up unto vile passions: for their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature:

^{28 Ref} And even as they refused to have God in `their' knowledge, God gave them up unto a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;

^{22 Ref} Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

^{23 Ref} and traded the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of an image of corruptible man, and of birds, and four-footed animals, and creeping things.

^{26 Ref} For this reason, God gave them up to vile passions. For their women changed the natural function into that which is against nature.

^{27 Ref} Likewise also the men, leaving the natural function of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another, men doing what is inappropriate with men, and receiving in themselves the due penalty of their error.

^{28 Ref} Even as they refused to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;
