Acts 13:17-19

¹⁷God, whom we (inc) Israelis worship, chose our ancestors to be his people, and he caused them to become very numerous while they were foreigners living in Egypt. Then after many years, God helped them MTY powerfully and led them out of there.

¹⁸Even though they repeatedly disobeyed him, he cared for them for about forty years while they were in the desert.

¹⁹He enabled the Israelis to conquer seven tribal groups who were then living in Canaan region, and he gave their land to us Israelis for us to possess.
