欲人求主、庶揣摩得之、而主離我不遠、

欲其尋主、庶揣摩得之、然主實離我各人不遠、

俾知追求所天、庶幾冥心索摸、得識真主。實則天主之於人人、近在咫尺；

God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us.

God did this so that people would seek him. And perhaps they would reach out for him and find him. They would find him even though he is not far from any of us.

“ His purpose was for the nations to seek after God and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him— though he is not far from any one of us.

He did this so that they might seek God, and perhaps they might reach out and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.

that they would seek God, if perhaps they might feel around for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us;

so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us;

that they should seek God, if haply they might feel after him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us:

He did this so they might seek God, and perhaps they might reach out and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us.

That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:

so that they would search for God and perhaps grope around for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.

that they should seek the Lord, if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.

Yet he did not leave himself without witness, for he did good by giving you rains from heaven and fruitful seasons, satisfying your hearts with food and gladness.”

For what great nation is there that has a god so near to it as the Lord our God is to us, whenever we call upon him?

“ Am I a God at hand, declares the Lord, and not a God far away?Can a man hide himself in secret places so that I cannot see him? declares the Lord. Do I not fill heaven and earth? declares the Lord.

For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.

that the remnant of mankind may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles who are called by my name, says the Lord, who makes these things

Or do you presume on the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, not knowing that God’s kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?

O Lord, you have searched me and known me!You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar.You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways.Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, O Lord, you know it altogether.You hem me in, behind and before, and lay your hand upon me.Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high; I cannot attain it.Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence?If I ascend to heaven, you are there! If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there!If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me.If I say,“ Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night,”even the darkness is not dark to you; the night is bright as the day, for darkness is as light with you.For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb.

The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard.Their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber, and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy.Its rising is from the end of the heavens, and its circuit to the end of them, and there is nothing hidden from its heat.

“ But will God indeed dwell on the earth? Behold, heaven and the highest heaven cannot contain you; how much less this house that I have built!
