Acts 17:25-27
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
25 Nor is He served by human hands, [as if] being-in-need of something[a]— He Himself giving life and breath and all things to all people. 26 And He made from one man every nation of mankind, that they should dwell upon all the face of the earth, having determined the times[b] having been appointed[c] for them and the boundaries of their dwelling-places[d]; 27 that they should seek God— if perhaps indeed they might grope-for[e] Him and find Him, though indeed He being not far from each one of us.

New International Version
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.(A) 26 From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands.(B) 27 God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us.(C)
