22 Then Paul stood up in the court and said, `You men of Athens, I see that you are very religious and worship many gods.
23 As I walked about, I looked at the things you worship. I saw one place where you make sacrifices. You have written on it, "To the God we do not know." You are worshipping that God, but you do not know him. I will tell you about him.

I see that you have built many special places where you worship your gods. I saw one altar with a notice on it.
