Acts 13:16-19

16 Standing up, Paul motioned with his hand and said: “Fellow Israelites and you Gentiles who worship God, listen to me!

17 The God of the people of Israel chose our ancestors; he made the people prosper during their stay in Egypt; with mighty power he led them out of that country;

18 for about forty years he endured their conduct^[a] in the wilderness;

19 and he overthrew seven nations in Canaan, giving their land to his people as their inheritance.
