‏ Romans 1:27

 Turned ( εξεκαυθησαν ). First aorist passive indicative, causative aorist, of  εκκαιω, old verb, to burn out, to set on fire, to inflame with anger or lust. Here only in N.T.

 Lust ( ορεξε ). Only here in N.T.

 Unseemliness ( ασχημοσυνην ). Old word from  ασχημον (deformed). In N.T. only here and Re 16:15.

 Recompense ( αντιμισθιαν ). See on 2Co 6:13 for only other N.T. instance of this late Pauline word, there in good sense, here in bad.

 Which was due ( ην εδε ). Imperfect active for obligation still on them coming down from the past. This debt will be paid in full ( απολαμβανοντες, pay back as in Lu 6:34, and due as in Lu 23:41). Nature will attend to that in their own bodies and souls.
