24 Therefore (A)God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to (B)the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves,
26 For this reason (A)God gave them up to (B)dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature;
28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, (A)God gave them up to (B)a debased mind to do (C)what ought not to be done.
7 What then? (A)Israel failed to obtain what it was seeking. The elect obtained it, but the rest (B)were hardened, 8 as it is written,
(C)“God gave them a spirit of stupor, (D)eyes that would not see and ears that would not hear,down to this very day.”
