The word venerate is not used in the text. Worship is.
If you follow the reference verses to where this word is used you see it is primarily directed to God. Acts 19:27 of course to a false goddess.
The point being...you're either worshiping God or you are worshiping someone/something else.
There is no separate class of "veneration".
I don’t know whether there I’d any Greek word which exactly maps onto the English word “veneration “. My guess is it would be “dulia”.
Even if there is no word in Greek which exactly corresponds to “veneration”, the customs and concept of veneration are richly illustrated esp in the OT. There are dozens of examples, for instance of people bowing genuflecting and/or prostrating in veneration, not adoration.
Abigail prostrating to King David: veneration or adoration?
That IS the point!
