Acts 14:16-18

New Century Version

¹⁶ In the past, God let all the nations do what they wanted. ¹⁷ Yet he proved he is real by showing kindness, by giving you rain from heaven and crops at the right times, by giving you food and filling your hearts with joy.” ¹⁸ Even with these words, they were barely able to keep the crowd from offering sacrifices to them.
