Romans 1:19-21
1599 Geneva Bible
19 [a]Forasmuch as that, which may be known of God, is manifest in [b]them, for God hath showed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him, that is, his eternal power and Godhead, are seen by the creation of the world, being [c]considered in his works, to the intent that they should be without excuse:
21 Because that when they knew God, they [d]glorified him not as God, neither were thankful, but became [e]vain in their thoughts, and their foolish heart was full of darkness.
