Acts 17:23-25
New Matthew Bible
23 For as I passed by and saw how you worship your gods, I found an altar on which was written, to the unknown god. Him then, whom you worship without knowledge, I proclaim to you. 24 God, who made the world and everything that is in it, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwells not in temples made with hands. 25 Neither is he worshipped with men’s hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself gives life and breath to all people everywhere.

Acts 17:23-25
New International Version
23 For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: to an unknown god. So you are ignorant of the very thing you worship(A)—and this is what I am going to proclaim to you.
24 “The God who made the world and everything in it(B) is the Lord of heaven and earth(C) and does not live in temples built by human hands.(D) 25 And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else.(E)
