24 The God who made the world and everything in it(A)—He is Lord of heaven and earth(B) and does not live in shrines made by hands.(C) 25 Neither is He served by human hands, as though He needed anything,(D) since He Himself gives everyone life and breath and all things.(E) 26 From one man(a) He has made every nationality to live over the whole earth and has determined their appointed times and the boundaries of where they live.(F) 27 He did this so they might seek God, and perhaps they might reach out and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us.(G)
