26and he made of one every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, having determined [their] appointed seasons, and the bounds of their habitation;

27that they should seek God, if haply they might feel after him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us:

28for in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain even of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.

29Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and device of man.

30The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked; but now he commandeth men that they should all everywhere repent:

31inasmuch as he hath appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.

32Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, We will hear thee concerning this yet again.
