Acts 13:13-21

¹³And having sailed from Paphos, Paul and his company came to Perga of Pamphylia; and John separated from them and returned to Jerusalem.

¹⁴But they, passing through from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia; and entering into the synagogue on the sabbath day they sat down.

¹⁵And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation to the people, speak.

¹⁶And Paul, rising up and making a sign with the hand, said, Israelites, and ye that fear God, hearken.

¹⁷The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people in their sojourn in the land of Egypt, and with a high arm brought them out of it,

¹⁸and for a time of about forty years he nursed them in the desert.

¹⁹And having destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance.

²⁰And after these things he gave them judges till Samuel the prophet, to the end of about four hundred and fifty years.

²¹And then they asked for a king, and God gave to them Saul, son of Kis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, during forty years.
