His Steadfast Love Endures Forever
A Psalm for (A)giving thanks.

4 (J)Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
and his (K)courts with praise!
Give thanks to him; (L)bless his name!

Paul Addresses the Areopagus
22 So Paul, standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said: “Men of Athens, I perceive that in every way you are very religious. 23 For as I passed along and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription: (A)‘To the unknown god.’ (B)What therefore you worship (C)as unknown, this I proclaim to you. 24 (D)The God who made the world and everything in it, being (E)Lord of heaven and earth, (F)does not live in temples made by man,[a] 25 nor is he served by human hands, (G)as though he needed anything, since he himself (H)gives to all mankind (I)life and breath and everything. 26 And (J)he made from one man every nation of mankind to live (K)on all the face of the earth, (L)having determined allotted periods and (M)the boundaries of their dwelling place, 27 (N)that they should seek God, (O)and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him. (P)Yet he is actually not far from each one of us, 28 for
as even some of (R)your own poets have said,
“‘For we are indeed his offspring.’[c]
29 (S)Being then God's offspring, (T)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. 30 (U)The times of ignorance (V)God overlooked, but (W)now he (X)commands all people everywhere to repent, 31 because he has fixed (Y)a day on which (Z)he will judge the world (AA)in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and (AB)of this he has given assurance to all (AC)by raising him from the dead.”

Acts 17:22-31
New International Version
22 Paul then stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus(A) and said: “People of Athens! I see that in every way you are very religious.(B) 23 For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: to an unknown god. So you are ignorant of the very thing you worship(C)—and this is what I am going to proclaim to you.
24 “The God who made the world and everything in it(D) is the Lord of heaven and earth(E) and does not live in temples built by human hands.(F) 25 And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else.(G) 26 From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands.(H) 27 God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us.(I) 28 ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’[a](J) As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’[b]
29 “Therefore since we are God’s offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone—an image made by human design and skill.(K) 30 In the past God overlooked(L) such ignorance,(M) but now he commands all people everywhere to repent.(N) 31 For he has set a day when he will judge(O) the world with justice(P) by the man he has appointed.(Q) He has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead.”(R)

Christ the Hope of Jews and Gentiles
8 For I tell you that Christ (A)became a servant to the circumcised to show God's truthfulness, in order (B)to confirm the promises given to the patriarchs, 9 and in order (C)that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written,
(D)“Therefore I will praise you among the Gentiles,
and sing to your name.”
10 And again it is said,
(E)“Rejoice, O Gentiles, with his people.”
11 And again,
(F)“Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles,
and let all the peoples extol him.”
12 And again Isaiah says,
(G)(H)“The root of Jesse will come,
even he who arises to rule the Gentiles;
(I)in him will the Gentiles hope.”
