Acts 17:22-34
22And Paul standing in the midst of Areopagus said, Athenians, in every way I see you given up to demon worship; 23for, passing through and beholding your shrines, I found also an altar on which was inscribed, To the unknown 1God. Whom therefore ye reverence, not knowing [him], him I announce to you. 24The 2God who has made the world and all things which are in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands, 25nor is served by men's hands as needing something, himself giving to all life and breath and all things; 26and has made of one blood every nation of men to dwell upon the whole face of the earth, having determined ordained times and the boundaries of their dwelling, 27that they may seek 3God; if indeed they might feel after him and find him, although he is not far from each one of us: 28for in him we live and move and exist; as also some of the poets amongst you have said, For we are also his offspring. 29Being therefore [the] offspring of 4God, we ought not to think that which is divine to be like gold or silver or stone, [the] graven form of man's art and imagination. 305God therefore, having overlooked the times of ignorance, now enjoins men that they shall all everywhere repent, 31because he has set a day in which he is going to judge the habitable earth in righteousness by [the] man whom he has appointed, giving the proof [of it] to all [in] having raised him from among [the] dead. 32And when they heard [of the] resurrection of the dead, some mocked, and some said, We will hear thee again also concerning this. 33Thus Paul went out of their midst. 34But some men joining themselves to him believed; among whom also was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman by name Damaris, and others with them.
