Acts 17:24-29

English Standard Version

^24 (A)The God who made the world and everything in it, being ^(B)Lord of heaven and earth, ^(C)does not live in temples made by man,^{[a] 25} nor is he served by human hands, ^(D)as though he needed anything, since he himself ^(E)gives to all mankind ^(F)life and breath and everything. ²⁶ And ^(G)he made from one man every nation of mankind to live ^(H)on all the face of the earth, ^(I)having determined allotted periods and ^(J)the boundaries of their dwelling place, ^27 (K)that they should seek God, ^(L)and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him. ^(M)Yet he is actually not far from each one of us, ²⁸ for

as even some of ^(O)your own poets have said,

^29 (P)Being then God's offspring, ^(Q)we ought not to think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man.
