delivered them up to a reprobate sense, to do those things which are not
convenient.
1:29. Being filled with all iniquity, malice, fornication, avarice,
wickedness: full of envy, murder, contention, deceit, malignity:
whisperers,
1:30. Detractors, hateful to God, contumelious, proud, haughty,
inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
1:31. Foolish, dissolute: without affection, without fidelity, without
mercy.
1:32. Who, having known the justice of God, did not understand that they
who do such things, are worthy of death: and not only they that do them,
but they also that consent to them that do them.
Romans Chapter 2
