King James Version with Apocrypha
"And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:"
— Acts 17:30, King James Version with Apocrypha
“And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:”
“The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked; but now he commandeth men that they should all everywhere repent: ”
“The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked. But now he commands that all people everywhere should repent,”
“Therefore, although God has overlooked such times of ignorance, he now commands all people everywhere to repent,”
“And God indeed having winked at the times of this ignorance, now declareth unto men that all should every where do penance.”
“Those times when men had no knowledge were overlooked by God; but now he gives orders to all men in every place to undergo a change of heart:”
That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:
For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.
Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man’s device.
And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter.
So Paul departed from among them.
