Kisah Para Rasul 17:25-26

17:25 nor is he served by human hands, as if he needed anything, ¹  because he himself gives life and breath and everything to everyone. ²  17:26 From one man ³  he made every nation of the human race ⁴  to inhabit the entire earth, ⁵  determining their set times ⁶  and the fixed limits of the places where they would live, ⁷ 

[17:25]  ¹ tn L&N 57.45 has “nor does he need anything more that people can supply by working for him.”

[17:25]  ² tn Grk “he himself gives to all [people] life and breath and all things.”

[17:26]  ³ sn The one man refers to Adam (the word “man” is understood).

[17:26]  ⁴ tn Or “mankind.” BDAG 276 s.v. ἔθνος 1 has “every nation of humankind Ac 17:26.”

[17:26]  ⁵ tn Grk “to live over all the face of the earth.”

[17:26]  ⁶ tn BDAG 884-85 s.v. προστάσσω has “(οἱ) προστεταγμένοι καιροί (the) fixed times Ac 17:26” here, but since the following phrase is also translated “fixed limits,” this would seem redundant in English, so the word “set” has been used instead.

[17:26]  ⁷ tn Grk “the boundaries of their habitation.” L&N 80.5 has “fixed limits of the places where they would live” for this phrase.
