Acts 13:17-23
New International Version
17 The God of the people of Israel chose our ancestors; he made the people prosper during their stay in Egypt; with mighty power he led them out of that country;(A) 18 for about forty years he endured their conduct[a](B) in the wilderness;(C) 19 and he overthrew seven nations in Canaan,(D) giving their land to his people(E) as their inheritance.(F) 20 All this took about 450 years.
“After this, God gave them judges(G) until the time of Samuel the prophet.(H) 21 Then the people asked for a king,(I) and he gave them Saul(J) son of Kish, of the tribe of Benjamin,(K) who ruled forty years. 22 After removing Saul,(L) he made David their king.(M) God testified concerning him: ‘I have found David son of Jesse, a man after my own heart;(N) he will do everything I want him to do.’(O)
23 “From this man’s descendants(P) God has brought to Israel the Savior(Q) Jesus,(R) as he promised.(S)
