Eze 22:6-13, Mat 15:18-19, Mar 7:21-23, Rom 1:21-32, 1Cor 6:9-10 | ESV | STEP | Behold , the princes of Israel in you, every one according to his power , have been bent on shedding blood .

6 “Behold, ^athe princes of Israel in you, every one according to his power, have been bent on shedding blood. 7 Father and mother ^bare treated with contempt in you; the sojourner ^csuffers extortion in your midst; the fatherless and the widow ^dare wronged in you. 8 ^eYou have despised my holy things and ^fprofaned my Sabbaths. 9 ^gThere are men in you who slander to shed blood, and people in you ^hwho eat on the mountains; ⁱthey commit lewdness in your midst. 10 In you ^jmen uncover their fathers’ nakedness; in you they violate women who are unclean in their menstrual impurity. 11 ^kOne commits abomination with his neighbor’s wife; ^lanother lewdly defiles his daughter-in-law; ^manother in you violates his sister, his father’s daughter. 12 In you ⁿthey take bribes to shed blood; ^oyou take interest and profit ^{▼▼That is, profit that comes from charging interest to the poor (compare Leviticus 25:36)} and make gain of your neighbors by extortion; but ^qme you have forgotten, declares the Lord God.

13 “Behold, ^rI strike my hand at ^sthe dishonest gain that you have made, and at ^tthe blood that has been in your midst.

Matthew 15:18-19

18 But ^uwhat comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this defiles a person. 19 For out of the heart come ^vevil thoughts, ^wmurder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, ^xslander.

Mark 7:21-23

21 For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, ^ymurder, adultery, 22 coveting, wickedness, deceit, ^zsensuality, ^aaenvy, ^abslander, ^acpride, ^adfoolishness. 23 ^aeAll these evil things come from within, and they defile a person.”

Romans 1:21-32

21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they ^afbecame futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 ^agClaiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and ^ahexchanged the glory of ^aithe immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.

24 Therefore ^ajGod gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to ^akthe dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, 25 because they exchanged the truth about God for ^ala lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, ^amwho is blessed forever! Amen.

26 For this reason ^anGod gave them up to ^aodishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; 27 and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, ^apmen committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error.

28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, ^aqGod gave them up to ^ara debased mind to do ^aswhat ought not to be done. 29 They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, 31 foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32 Though they know ^atGod’s righteous decree that those who practice such things ^audeserve to die, they not only do them but ^avgive approval to those who practice them.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10

9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous ^{▼▼Or wrongdoers} will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: ^axneither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, ^{▼▼The two Greek terms translated by this phrase refer to the passive and active partners in consensual homosexual acts} 10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
