1:21-25:
 For
although they knew God, they neither glorified him
as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking
became futile and their foolish hearts were
darkened. Although they claimed to be wise,
they became fools and exchanged the glory of
the immortal God for images made to look like mortal
man and birds and animals and reptiles.
Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires
of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading
of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the
truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served
created things rather than the Creator-- who is
forever praised. Amen. (NIV)
 because,
although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as
God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their
thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
Professing to be wise, they became fools, and
changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an
image made like corruptible man-- and birds and
four-footed animals and creeping things. Therefore
God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts
of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among
themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the
lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather
than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (NKJ)
 because
that, knowing God, they glorified him not as God,
neither gave thanks; but became vain in their
reasonings, and their senseless heart was darkened.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
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.
Wherefore God gave them up in the lusts of their
hearts unto uncleanness, that their bodies should be
dishonored among themselves: 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. (ASV)
 Because
that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as
God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their
imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into
an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds,
and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness
through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour
their own bodies between themselves: Who changed the
truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served
the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed
for ever. Amen. (KJV) |
