16 Paul stood up, and 1motioning with his hand said, "Men of Israel, and 2 you who fear God, listen:
17 "The God of this people Israel 3chose our fathers and 4made the people great during their stay in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm 5He led them out from it.
18 "For 6a period of about forty years 7He put up with them in the wilderness.
19 "8When He had destroyed 9seven nations in the land of Canaan, He 10distributed their land as an inheritance -all of which took 11about four hundred and fifty years.
20 "After these things He 12gave them judges until 13Samuel the prophet.
21 "Then they 14asked for a king, and God gave them 15Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.
22 "After He had 16removed him, He raised up David to be their king, concerning whom He also testified and said, '17I HAVE FOUND DAVID the son of Jesse, A MAN AFTER MY HEART, who will do all My will.'
23 "18From the descendants of this man, 19according to promise, God has brought to Israel 20a Savior, Jesus,
24 after 21John had proclaimed before His coming * a 22baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
25 "And while John 23was completing his course, 24he kept saying, 'What do you suppose that I am? I am not He. But behold, one is coming after me the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.'
26 "Brethren *, sons of Abraham's family, and those among you who fear God, to us the message of 25this salvation has been sent.
