16 For it was a mere human being who made them;one living on borrowed breath who fashioned them.For no one is able to fashion a god like himself;
17 he is mortal, and what he makes with lawless hands is dead.For he is better than the things he worships;he at least lives, but never his idols.
18 Besides, they worship the most loathsome beasts—as regards stupidity, these are worse than the rest,
19 For beasts are neither good-looking nor desirable;they have escaped both the approval of God and his blessing.
