Acts 17:26-31
New American Standard Bible
26 and (A)He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having (B)determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation, 27 that they would seek God, if perhaps they might feel around for Him and find Him, (C)though He is not far from each one of us; 28 for (D)in Him we live and move and [a]exist, as even some of your own poets have said, ‘For we also are His descendants.’ 29 Therefore, since we are the descendants of God, we (E)ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by human skill and thought. 30 So having (F)overlooked (G)the times of ignorance, God is (H)now proclaiming to mankind that all people everywhere are to repent, 31 because He has set (I)a day on which (J)He will judge [b](K)the world in righteousness [c]through a Man whom He has (L)appointed, having furnished proof to all people [d]by (M)raising Him from the dead.”
