But Paul, standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said: Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are too superstitious. 23For passing by and seeing your idols, I found an altar also, on which was written: To the Unknown God. What therefore you worship without knowing it, that I preach to you: 24God, who made the world and all things therein, he being Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands. 25Neither is he served with men's hands, as though he needed any thing: seeing it is he who giveth to all life and breath and all things: 26And hath made of one, all mankind, to dwell upon the whole face of the earth, determining appointed times and the limits of their habitation. 27That they should seek God, if haply they may feel after him or find him, although he be not far from every one of us. 28For in him we live and move and are: as some also of your own poets said: For we are also his offspring. 29Being therefore the offspring of God, we must not suppose the divinity to be like unto gold or silver or stone, the graving of art and device of man. 30And God indeed having winked at the times of this ignorance, now declareth unto men that all should every where do penance. 31Because he hath appointed a day wherein he will judge the world in equity, by the man whom he hath appointed: giving faith to all, by raising him up from the dead. 32And when they had heard of the resurrection of the dead, some indeed mocked. But others said: We will hear thee again concerning this matter. 33So Paul went out from among them. 34But certain men, adhering to him, did believe: among whom was also Dionysius the Areopagite and a woman named Damaris and others with them.
