Acts 17:26-29 He made every race of people living throughout the earth from one family and determined when they would rise in history and where they would live.

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁶ He made every race of people living throughout the earth from one [family] and determined when [they would rise in history] and where they would live. ²⁷ He wanted these people to search for God in hope that, by groping for Him, they might [eventually] find Him, even though He is not [really] very far from [any of] us. ²⁸ For in [the strength of] God we [all] live, move around and have our [personal] identity, just as a certain one of your [Athenian] poets [once] said, 'For we too are His children.' ²⁹ Since therefore we are God's children, we should not think that the Deity is like gold, silver or stone, to be carved [into an idol] by the design and skill of men.
