idolaters

⁸But the fearful, and the unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and drug users, and idolaters, and all liars, these shall be a part of the pool burning with fire and sulphur, which is the second death.”

⁵Therefore, mortify your body, while it is upon the earth. For because of fornication, impurity, lust, evil desires, and avarice, which are a kind of service to idols,

⁹Do you not know that the iniquitous will not possess the kingdom of God? Do not choose to wander astray. For neither fornicators, nor servants of idolatry, nor adulterers, ¹⁰nor the effeminate, nor males who sleep with males, nor thieves, nor the avaricious, nor the inebriated, nor slanderers, nor the rapacious shall possess the kingdom of God.

¹⁹Now the works of the flesh are manifest; they are: fornication, lust, homosexuality, self-indulgence, ²⁰the serving of idols, drug use, hostility, contentiousness, jealousy, wrath, quarrels, dissensions, divisions, ²¹envy, murder, inebriation, carousing, and similar things. About these things, I continue to preach to you, as I have preached to you: that those who act in this way shall not obtain the kingdom of God.

¹³If any man has slept with a male in place of sexual intercourse with a female, both have committed a nefarious act, they shall die a death. So let their blood be upon them.

²⁶Because of this, God handed them over to shameful passions. For example, their females have exchanged the natural use of the body for a use which is against nature. ²⁷And similarly, the males also, abandoning the natural use of females, have burned in their desires for one another: males doing with males what is disgraceful, and receiving within themselves the recompense that necessarily results from their error.

¹⁵Outside are dogs, and drug users, and homosexuals, and murderers, and those who serve idols, and all who love and do what is false.

²²You shall not commit sexual acts with a male, in place of sexual intercourse with a female, for this is an abomination.

¹⁴Because of this, most beloved of mine, flee from the worship of idols.

⁹Do you not know that the iniquitous will not possess the kingdom of God? Do not choose to wander astray. For neither fornicators, nor servants of idolatry, nor adulterers,

¹Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called as an Apostle, separated for the Gospel of God, ²which he had promised beforehand, through his Prophets, in the Holy Scriptures, ³about his Son, who was made for him from the offspring of David according to the flesh, ⁴the Son of God, who was predestined in virtue according to the Spirit of sanctification from the resurrection of the dead, our Lord Jesus Christ, ⁵through whom we have received grace and Apostleship, for the sake of his name, for the obedience of faith among all the Gentiles, ⁶from whom you also have been called by Jesus Christ:

²¹Little sons, keep yourselves from false worship. Amen.

¹And the two Angels arrived at Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting at the gate of the city. And when he had seen them, he rose up and went to meet them. And he reverenced prone on the ground. ²And he said: “I beg you, my lords, turn aside to the house of your servant, and lodge there. Wash your feet, and in the morning you will advance on your way.” And they said, “Not at all. But we will lodge in the street.” ³He pressed them very much to turn aside to him. And when they had entered his house, he made a feast for them, and he cooked unleavened bread, and they ate. ⁴But before they went to bed, the men of the city surrounded the house, from boys to old men, all the people together. ⁵And they called out to Lot, and they said to him: “Where are the men who entered to you in the night? Bring them out here, so that we may know them.” ⁶Lot went out to them, and blocking the door behind him, he said:
