24. `God, who did make the world, and all things in it, this One, of heaven and of earth being Lord, in temples made with hands doth not dwell,
25. neither by the hands of men is He served--needing anything, He giving to all life, and breath, and all things;
26. He made also of one blood every nation of men, to dwell upon all the face of the earth-- having ordained times before appointed, and the bounds of their dwellings--
27. to seek the Lord, if perhaps they did feel after Him and find, --though, indeed, He is not far from each one of us,
28. for in Him we live, and move, and are; as also certain of your poets have said: For of Him also we are offspring.
29. `Being, therefore, offspring of God, we ought not to think the Godhead to be like to gold, or silver, or stone, graving of art and device of man;
30. the times, indeed, therefore, of the ignorance God having overlooked, doth now command all men everywhere to reform,
31. because He did set a day in which He is about to judge the world in righteousness, by a man whom He did ordain, having given assurance to all, having raised him out of the dead.'
32. And having heard of a rising again of the dead, some, indeed, were mocking, but others said, `We will hear thee again concerning this;'
33. and so Paul went forth from the midst of them,
34. and certain men having cleaved to him, did believe, among whom [is] also Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman, by name Damaris, and others with them.
