updv - Acts:17:15-34

updv@Acts:17:15 @ But those who conducted Paul brought him as far as Athens: and receiving a commandment to Silas and Timothy that they should come to him with all speed, they departed.

updv@Acts:17:16 @ Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked inside him as he looked at the city full of idols.

updv@Acts:17:17 @ So he reasoned in the synagogue with Jews and the devout persons, and in the marketplace every day with those who met him.

updv@Acts:17:18 @ And certain also of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers encountered him. And some said, What would this babbler say? Others, He seems to be a setter forth of strange gods: because he preached [the good news of] Jesus and the resurrection.

updv@Acts:17:19 @ And they took hold of him, and brought him to the Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new teaching is, which is spoken by you?

updv@Acts:17:20 @ For you bring certain strange things to our ears: we would know therefore what these things mean.

updv@Acts:17:21 @ (Now all the Athenians and the strangers sojourning there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell or to hear some new thing.)

updv@Acts:17:22 @ And Paul stood among the Areopagus, and said, Men, Atheneans, in all things, I perceive that you(note:){+}(:note) are very religious.

updv@Acts:17:23 @ For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your(note:){+}(:note) worship, I found also an altar with this inscription, TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. What therefore you{+} worship in ignorance, this I set forth to you{+}.

updv@Acts:17:24 @ The God who made the world and all things in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands;

updv@Acts:17:25 @ neither is he served by men's hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself gives to all life, and breath, and all things;

updv@Acts:17:26 @ and 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;

updv@Acts:17:27 @ that they should seek God, if perhaps they might feel after him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us:

updv@Acts:17:28 @ for in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain even of your(note:){+}(:note) own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.

updv@Acts:17:29 @ Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the divine nature is like gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and device of man.

updv@Acts:17:30 @ The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked; but now he commands men that they should all everywhere repent:

updv@Acts:17:31 @ inasmuch as he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has appointed; he has given assurance of this to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead.

updv@Acts:17:32 @ Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, We will hear you concerning this yet again.

updv@Acts:17:33 @ Thus Paul went out from among them.

updv@Acts:17:34 @ But certain men stuck [close] to him, and believed: among whom also was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.
