Romans 1:23-25 and for the splendor of the immortal God they have substituted images in the form of mortal man, birds, animals, and reptiles.

Goodspeed⁽ⁱ⁾ ²³ and for the splendor of the immortal God they have substituted images in the form of mortal man, birds, animals, and reptiles. ²⁴ So God abandoned them, with their heart's cravings, to impurity, and let them degrade their own bodies. ²⁵ For they had exchanged the truth of God for what was false, and worshiped and served what he had created, instead of the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen!
