Acts 17:28-34

28for 1in Him we live and move and 2exist, as even some of your own poets have said, ‘For we also are His children.’ 29Being then the children of God, we 3ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and thought of man. 30Therefore having 4overlooked 5the times of ignorance, God is 6now declaring to men that all people everywhere should repent, 31because He has fixed 7a day in which 8He will judge 910the world in righteousness 11through a Man whom He has 12appointed, having furnished proof to all men 13by 14raising Him from the dead.”

32Now when they heard of 15the resurrection of the dead, some began to sneer, but others said, “We shall hear you 16again concerning this.” 33So Paul went out of their midst. 34But some men joined him and believed, among whom also were Dionysius the 17Areopagite and a woman named Damaris and others with them.
