Wisdom 13:8

8 Even so, these persons aren't excused.

Wisdom 13:8 In-Context

6 It is for this reason that they're not without guilt. Yet perhaps we shouldn't blame them too much. They may have gone astray while they were looking for God, wanting to find him.
7 They spend a lot of time exploring his works. Something about their appearance leads them to wonder, for the things that they see are indeed wonderful.
8 Even so, these persons aren't excused.
9 After all, if they were indeed able to know so much that they could speculate about space and time, how is it that they weren't able to discover the ruler of space and time more quickly?
10 How much more miserable, though, are those people who put their trust in things that are dead? These people call gods the works of human hands, objects of gold and silver that artisans practice on, artistic representations of animals, even worthless stones carved by someone long ago.
