Acts 13:21

For a period of about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness.

When he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land for an inheritance for about four hundred fifty years.

After these things, he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet.

When he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, to whom he also testified, ‘I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who will do all my will.’

From this man’s offspring, God has brought salvation to Israel according to his promise,

before his coming, when John had first preached the baptism of repentance to Israel.
