Acts 17:25-28

25NorG3761 is He servedG2323 byG5259 humanG442 handsG5495, as if He neededG4326 anythingG5100, because He HimselfG846 givesG1325 everyoneG3956 lifeG2222 andG2532 breathG4157 andG2532 everythingG3956 else. 26FromG1537 oneG1520 man1 He madeG4160 everyG3956 nationG1484 of menG444, that they should inhabitG2730G1909 the wholeG3956G4383 earthG1093; and He determinedG3724 their appointedG4367 timesG2540 andG2532 theG3588 boundariesG3734 of theirG846 landsG2733.

27God intended that they would seekG2212 Him and perhapsG1487G687 reach out forG5584 HimG846 andG2532 findG2147 Him, thoughG2532G1065 He isG5225 notG3756 farG3112 fromG575 eachG1538 oneG1520 of usG1473. 28‘ForG1063 inG1722 HimG846 we liveG2198 andG2532 moveG2795 andG2532 have our beingG1510.’2 AsG5613 someG5100 of yourG2596G4771 own poetsG4163 have saidG2046, ‘We areG1510 His offspringG1085.’3
