“For they exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for the likeness of the image of corruptible man, and of birds and quadrupeds and serpents, and they exchanged the truth of God for a lie and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever; although they called themselves wise, they became fool…”

In context
23For while they slew their children in sacrifices, or used secret ceremonies, Or made revelings of strange rites;
24They kept neither lives nor marriages any longer undefiled: But either one slew another traitorously or grieved him by adultery.
— Wisdom of Solomon 14:25 —
26Disquieting of good men, forgetfulness of good turns, Defiling of souls, changing of kind, Disorder in marriages, adultery, and shameless uncleanness.
27For the worshiping of idols not to be named Is the beginning, the cause, and the end, of all evil.
