Psalms 19:1-6

The Law of the Lord Is Perfect

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1 ^aThe heavens declare the glory of God,
and the sky above ^{▼▼Hebrew the expanse; compare Genesis 1:6–8} proclaims his handiwork.
2 Day to day pours out speech,
and night to night reveals knowledge.
3 There is no speech, nor are there words,
whose voice is not heard.
4 ^cTheir ^dvoice ^{▼▼Or Their measuring line} goes out through all the earth,
and their words to the end of the world.
In them he has set a tent for ^fthe sun,
5 ^gwhich comes out like ^ha bridegroom leaving his chamber,
and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy.
6 Its rising is from the end of the heavens,
and its circuit to the end of them,
and there is nothing hidden from its heat.

Isaiah 40:26

26 Lift up your eyes on high and see:
who created these?
ⁱHe who brings out their host by number,
calling them all by name;
by the greatness of his might
and because he is strong in power,
not one is missing.

Jeremiah 10:10-13

10 ^jBut the Lord is the true God;
^khe is the living God and the everlasting King.
At his wrath the earth quakes,
and the nations cannot endure his indignation.
11 Thus shall you say to them: ^l“The gods who did not make the heavens and the earth ^mshall perish from the earth and from under the heavens.” ^{▼▼This verse is in Aramaic}

12 ^oIt is he who ^pmade the earth by his power,
^qwho established the world by his wisdom,
and ^rby his understanding stretched out the heavens.
13 ^sWhen he utters his voice, there is a tumult of waters in the heavens,
^tand he makes the mist rise from the ends of the earth.
^uHe makes lightning ^vfor the rain,
^wand he brings forth the wind ^xfrom his storehouses.

Acts 14:16

16 In past generations he ^yallowed all the nations ^zto walk in their own ways.

Acts 17:23-30

23 For as I passed along and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription, ^aa‘To the unknown god.’ ^abWhat therefore you worship ^acas unknown, this I proclaim to you. 24 ^adThe God who made the world and everything in it, being ^aeLord of heaven and earth, ^afdoes not live in temples made by man, ^{▼▼Greek made by hands} 25 nor is he served by human hands, ^ahas though he needed anything, since he himself ^aigives to all mankind ^ajlife and breath and everything. 26 And ^akhe made from one man every nation of mankind to live ^alon all the face of the earth, ^amhaving determined allotted periods and ^anthe boundaries of their dwelling place, 27 ^aothat they should seek God, ^apand perhaps feel their way toward him and find him. ^aqYet he is actually not far from each one of us, 28 for

^ar“‘In him we live and move and have our being’; ^{▼▼Probably from Epimenides of Crete}
as even some of ^atyour own poets have said,

“‘For we are indeed his offspring.’ ^{▼▼From Aratus’s poem “Phainomena”}
29 ^avBeing then God’s offspring, ^awwe ought not to think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man. 30 ^axThe times of ignorance ^ayGod overlooked, but ^aznow he ^bacommands all people everywhere to repent,

Romans 1:20

20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, ^bbhave been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, ^{▼▼Or clearly perceived from the creation of the world} in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
