Romans 1:23-25

New Catholic Bible

²³exchanging the glory of the immortal God for images fashioned in the likeness of a mortal man or birds or fourfooted animals or reptiles.

²⁴Therefore, God abandoned them in the sinful lusts of their hearts to impurity and the mutual degradation of their bodies. ²⁵They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and offered worship and service to the creature rather than to the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
