FROM ONE MAN HE MADE EVERY NATION OF MEN

 

24 The God Who Made the World

And Everything in it

Is the Lord of Heaven and Earth

And does not Live in Temples

Built by Hands.

25 And He is not Served by Human Hands,

As if He Needed Anything,

Because He Himself Gives All Men

Life and Breath and Everything Else

26 FROM ONE MAN (Adam)

HE MADE EVERY NATION OF MEN,

That they should Inhabit the Whole Earth;

AND HE DETERMINED THE TIMES SET FOR THEM

AND THE EXACT PLACES WHERE THEY SHOULD LIVE.

27 God did this so that Men would Seek Him

And perhaps Reach Out for Him and Find Him,

Though He is Not Far from each one of us.

28 FOR IN HIM WE LIVE AND MOVE

AND HAVE OUR BEING

As some of your own Prophets have said,

“WE ARE HIS OFFSPRING.”

(Acts 17:24-28, NIV)
