Acts 17:23-30
English Standard Version
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,

Psalm 19:1-6
English Standard Version
The Law of the Lord Is Perfect
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.
19 (A)The heavens declare the glory of God,
and the sky above[a] proclaims his handiwork.
2 Day to day pours out speech,
and night to night reveals knowledge.
3 There is no speech, nor are there words,
whose voice is not heard.
4 (B)Their (C)voice[b] goes out through all the earth,
and their words to the end of the world.
In them he has set a tent for (D)the sun,
5 (E)which comes out like (F)a bridegroom leaving his chamber,
and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy.
6 Its rising is from the end of the heavens,
and its circuit to the end of them,
and there is nothing hidden from its heat.

Isaiah 40:26
English Standard Version
26 Lift up your eyes on high and see:
who created these?
(A)He who brings out their host by number,
calling them all by name;
by the greatness of his might
and because he is strong in power,
not one is missing.
Jeremiah 10:10-13
English Standard Version
10 (A)But the Lord is the true God;
(B)he is the living God and the everlasting King.
At his wrath the earth quakes,
and the nations cannot endure his indignation.
11 Thus shall you say to them: (C)“The gods who did not make the heavens and the earth (D)shall perish from the earth and from under the heavens.”[a]
12 (E)It is he who (F)made the earth by his power,
(G)who established the world by his wisdom,
and (H)by his understanding stretched out the heavens.
13 (I)When he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens,
(J)and he makes the mist rise from the ends of the earth.
(K)He makes lightning (L)for the rain,
(M)and he brings forth the wind (N)from his storehouses.
