Romans 1:18-23

18For 1the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of people who 2suppress the truth 3in unrighteousness, 19because 4that which is known about God is evident 5within them; for God made it evident to them. 20For 6since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, that is, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, 7being understood by what has been made, so that they are without excuse. 21For even though they knew God, they did not 8honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became 9futile in their reasonings, and their senseless hearts were darkened. 2210Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23and they 11exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible mankind, of birds, four-footed animals, and 12crawling creatures.
