all life, and breath, and
all things. (26)And he made of one blood every nation of men to dwell
on all the face of the earth, having fixed the appointed seasons and
bounds of their habitation; (27)that they should seek the Lord, if
haply they might feel after him, and find him, although he is not far
from every one of us; (28)for in him we live, and move, and have our
being; as also some of your own poets have said: For his offspring
also are we. (29)Being therefore God's offspring, we ought not to
think that the Godhead is like to gold, or silver, or stone, graven by
art and man's device. (30)The times of ignorance therefore God
overlooked; but now, commands all men everywhere to repent.
(31)Because he fixed a day, in which he will judge the world in
righteousness, by the man whom he appointed, having given assurance to
all by raising him from the dead.

(32)And when they heard of a resurrection of the dead, some mocked;
and others said: We will hear thee again of this matter. (33)And thus
Paul departed from among them.

(34)But certain ones, joining themselves to him, believed; among whom
was also Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and
others with them.

AFTER these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth.
(2)And finding a certain Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, lately
come from Italy, and Priscilla his wife (because Claudius had
commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome), he came to them; (3)and
because he was of the same trade, he abode with them, and labored; for
by their occupation they were tentmakers. (4)And he reasoned in the
synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded both Jews and Greeks.

(5)And when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was
engrossed with the word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus is the
Christ. (6)But they opposing themselves and blaspheming, he shook out
his garments and said to them: Your blood be upon your own head; I am
clean; from henceforth I will go to the Gentiles.

(7)And departing thence he entered into a certain man's house, named
Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was adjoining the
synagogue. (8)And Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed on the
Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed,
and were immersed.

(9)And the Lord said to Paul, through a vision in the night: Be not
afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace; (10)for I am with thee, and
no one shall assail thee
