Acts 13:15-19

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.
