17 The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they stayed as foreigners in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm, he led them out of it. 18 For a period of about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness. 19 When he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance. 20 All this took about four hundred and fifty years. And after these things he gave them judges, until Samuel the prophet. Acts 13:17-20, New Heart English Bible. Public domain.
