Romans 1:22

← Romans 1:21	Romans 1:22 (KJV)	Romans 1:23 →
Because that, when they knew God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.	Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,	And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
