¹ And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.

² But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.

³ Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

⁴ But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

⁵ And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them,

⁶ They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about:

⁷ And there they preached the gospel.

⁸ And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked:

⁹ The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,

¹⁰ Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.

¹¹ And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.

¹² And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.

¹³ Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.

¹⁴ Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,

¹⁵ And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein:

¹⁶ Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.

¹⁷ Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.

¹⁸ And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.

¹⁹ And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead.

²⁰ Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

²¹ And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,

²² Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.

²³ And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.

²⁴ And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.

²⁵ And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:

²⁶ And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.

²⁷ And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.

²⁸ And there they abode long time with the disciples.

¹ And ^G1161 it came to pass ^G1096 in ^G1722 Iconium, ^G2430 that they ^G846 went ^G1525 both ^G2596 together ^G846 into ^G1519 the synagogue ^G4864 of the Jews, ^G2453 and ^G2532 so ^G3779 spake, ^G2980 that ^G5620 a great ^G4183 multitude ^G4128 both ^G5037 of the Jews ^G2453 and also ^G2532 of the Greeks ^G1672 believed. ^G4100

² But ^G1161 the unbelieving ^G544 Jews ^G2453 stirred up ^G1892 the Gentiles, ^G1484 and ^G2532 made ^G2559 their minds ^G5590 evil affected ^G2559 against ^G2596 the brethren. ^G80

³ Long ^G2425 time ^G5550 therefore ^{G3303 G3767} abode they ^G1304 speaking boldly ^G3955 in ^G1909 the Lord, ^G2962 which ^G3588 gave testimony ^G3140 unto the word ^G3056 of his ^G846 grace, ^G5485 and ^G2532 granted ^G1325 signs ^G4592 and ^G2532 wonders ^G5059 to be done ^G1096 by ^G1223 their ^G846 hands. ^G5495

⁴ But ^G1161 the multitude ^G4128 of the city ^G4172 was divided: ^G4977 and ^G2532 part ^G3303 held ^G2258 with ^G4862 the Jews, ^G2453 and ^G1161 part with ^G4862 the apostles. ^G652

⁵ And ^G1161 when ^G5613 there was ^G1096 an assault ^G3730 made ^G1096 both ^G5037 of the Gentiles, ^G1484 and also ^G2532 of the Jews ^G2453 with ^G4862 their ^G846 rulers, ^G758 to use them despitefully, ^G5195 and ^G2532 to stone ^G3036 them, ^G846

⁶ They were ware ^G4894 of it, and fled ^G2703 unto ^G1519 Lystra ^G3082 and ^G2532 Derbe, ^G1191 cities ^G4172 of Lycaonia, ^G3071 and ^G2532 unto the region that lieth round about: ^G4066

⁷ And there ^G2546 they preached the gospel. ^{G2258 G2097}

⁸ And ^G2532 there sat ^G2521 a certain ^G5100 man ^G435 at ^G1722 Lystra, ^G3082 impotent ^G102 in his feet, ^G4228 being ^G5225 a cripple ^G5560 from ^G1537 his ^G846 mother's ^G3384 womb, ^G2836 who ^G3739 never ^G3763 had walked: ^G4043

⁹ The same ^G3778 heard ^G191 Paul ^G3972 speak: ^G2980 who ^G3739 stedfastly beholding ^G816 him, ^G846 and ^G2532 perceiving ^G1492 that ^G3754 he had ^G2192 faith ^G4102 to be healed, ^G4982

¹⁰ Said ^G2036 with a loud ^G3173 voice, ^G5456 Stand ^G450 upright ^G3717 on ^G1909 thy ^G4675 feet. ^G4228 And ^G2532 he leaped ^G242 and ^G2532 walked. ^G4043

¹¹ And ^G1161 when the people ^G3793 saw ^G1492 what ^G3739 Paul ^G3972 had done, ^G4160 they lifted up ^G1869 their ^G846 voices, ^G5456 saying ^G3004 in the speech of Lycaonia, ^G3072 The gods ^G2316 are come down ^G2597 to ^G4314 us ^G2248 in the likeness ^G3666 of men. ^G444

¹² And ^G5037 they called ^G2564 Barnabas, ^{G921 G3303} Jupiter; ^G2203 and ^G1161 Paul, ^G3972 Mercurius, ^G2060 because ^G1894 he ^G846 was ^G2258 the chief ^G2233 speaker. ^G3056

¹³ Then ^G1161 the priest ^G2409 of Jupiter, ^G2203 which ^G3588 was ^G5607 before ^G4253 their ^G846 city, ^G4172 brought ^G5342 oxen ^G5022 and ^G2532 garlands ^G4725 unto ^G1909 the gates, ^G4440 and would ^G2309 have done sacrifice ^G2380 with ^G4862 the people. ^G3793

¹⁴ Which when ^G1161 the apostles, ^G652 Barnabas ^G921 and ^G2532 Paul, ^G3972 heard ^G191 of, they rent ^G1284 their ^G846 clothes, ^G2440 and ran ^G1530 in among ^G1519 the people, ^G3793 crying out, ^G2896

¹⁵ And ^G2532 saying, ^G3004 Sirs, ^G435 why ^G5101 do ye ^G4160 these things? ^G5130 We ^G2249 also ^G2532 are ^G2070 men ^G444 of like passions ^G3663 with you, ^G5213 and preach ^G2097 unto you ^G5209 that ye should turn ^G1994 from ^G575 these ^G5023 vanities ^G3152 unto ^G1909 the living ^G2198 God, ^G2316 which ^G3739 made ^G4160 heaven, ^G3772 and ^G2532 earth, ^G1093 and ^G2532 the sea, ^G2281 and ^G2532 all things ^G3956 that are therein: ^{G1722 G846}

¹⁶ Who ^G3739 in ^G1722 times ^G1074 past ^G3944 suffered ^G1439 all ^G3956 nations ^G1484 to walk ^G4198 in their own ^G846 ways. ^G3598

¹⁷ Nevertheless ^{G2544 G2532} he left ^G863 not ^G3756 himself ^G1438 without witness, ^G267 in that he did good, ^G15 and gave ^G1325 us ^G2254 rain ^G5205 from heaven, ^G3771 and ^G2532 fruitful ^G2593 seasons, ^G2540 filling ^G1705 our ^G2257 hearts ^G2588 with food ^G5160 and ^G2532 gladness. ^G2167

¹⁸ And ^G2532 with these ^G5023 sayings ^G3004 scarce ^G3433 restrained they ^G2664 the people, ^G3793 that they had ^G2380 not ^G3361 done sacrifice ^G2380 unto them. ^G846

¹⁹ And ^G1161 there came thither ^G1904 certain Jews ^G2453 from ^G575 Antioch ^G490 and ^G2532 Iconium, ^G2430 who ^G2532 persuaded ^G3982 the people, ^G3793 and, ^G2532 having stoned ^G3034 Paul, ^G3972 drew ^G4951 him out of ^G1854 the city, ^G4172 supposing ^G3543 he ^G846 had been dead. ^G2348

²⁰ Howbeit, ^G1161 as the disciples ^G3101 stood round about ^G2944 him, ^G846 he rose up, ^G450 and came ^G1525 into ^G1519 the city: ^G4172 and ^G2532 the next day ^G1887 he departed ^G1831 with ^G4862 Barnabas ^G921 to ^G1519 Derbe. ^G1191

²¹ And ^G5037 when they had preached the gospel ^G2097 to that ^G1565 city, ^G4172 and ^G2532 had taught ^G3100 many, ^G2425 they returned again ^G5290 to ^G1519 Lystra, ^G3082 and ^G2532 to Iconium, ^G2430 and ^G2532 Antioch, ^G490

²² Confirming ^G1991 the souls ^G5590 of the disciples, ^G3101 and exhorting them ^G3870 to continue ^G1696 in the faith, ^G4102 and ^G2532 that ^G3754 we ^G2248 must ^G1163 through ^G1223 much ^G4183 tribulation ^G2347 enter ^G1525 into ^G1519 the kingdom ^G932 of God. ^G2316

²³ And ^G1161 when they had ordained ^G5500 them ^G846 elders ^G4245 in every ^G2596 church, ^G1577 and had prayed ^G4336 with ^G3326 fasting, ^G3521 they commended ^G3908 them ^G846 to the Lord, ^G2962 on ^G1519 whom ^G3739 they believed. ^G4100

²⁴ And ^G2532 after they had passed throughout ^G1330 Pisidia, ^G4099 they came ^G2064 to ^G1519 Pamphylia. ^G3828

²⁵ And ^G2532 when they had preached ^G2980 the word ^G3056 in ^G1722 Perga, ^G4011 they went down ^G2597 into ^G1519 Attalia: ^G825

²⁶ And thence ^G2547 sailed ^G636 to ^G1519 Antioch, ^G490 from whence ^G3606 they had been ^G2258 recommended ^G3860 to the grace ^G5485 of God ^G2316 for ^G1519 the work ^G2041 which ^G3739 they fulfilled. ^G4137

²⁷ And ^G1161 when they were come, ^G3854 and ^G2532 had gathered ^G4863 the church ^G1577 together, ^G4863 they rehearsed ^G312 all ^G3745 that God ^G2316 had done ^G4160 with ^G3326 them, ^G846 and ^G2532 how ^G3754 he had opened ^G455 the door ^G2374 of faith ^G4102 unto the Gentiles. ^G1484

²⁸ And ^G1161 there ^G1563 they abode ^G1304 long ^{G3756 G3641} time ^G5550 with ^G4862 the disciples. ^G3101

---

¹ And it came to pass in Iconium that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake that a great multitude both of Jews and of Greeks believed.

² But the Jews that were disobedient stirred up the souls of the Gentiles, and made them evil affected against the brethren.

³ Long time therefore they tarried `there' speaking boldly in the Lord, who bare witness unto the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

⁴ But the multitude of the city was divided; and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

⁵ And when there was made an onset both of the Gentiles and of the Jews with their rulers, to treat them shamefully and to stone them,

⁶ they became aware of it, and fled unto the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the region round about:

⁷ and there they preached the gospel.

⁸ And at Lystra there sat a certain man, impotent in his feet, a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked.

⁹ The same heard Paul speaking, who, fastening eyes upon him, and seeing that he had faith to be made whole,

¹⁰ said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped up and walked.

¹¹ And when the multitude saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.

¹² And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercury, because he was the chief speaker.

¹³ And the priest of Jupiter whose `temple' was before the city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the multitudes.

¹⁴ But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of it, they rent their garments, and sprang forth among the multitude, crying out

¹⁵ and saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and bring you good tidings, that ye should turn from these vain things unto a living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all that in them is:

¹⁶ who in the generations gone by suffered all the nations to walk in their own ways.

¹⁷ And yet He left not himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you from heaven rains and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.

¹⁸ And with these sayings scarce restrained they the multitudes from doing sacrifice unto them.

¹⁹ But there came Jews thither from Antioch and Iconium: and having persuaded the multitudes, they stoned Paul, and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.

²⁰ But as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and entered into the city: and on the morrow he went forth with Barnabas to Derbe.

²¹ And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch,

²² confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.

²³ And when they had appointed for them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they had believed.

²⁴ And they passed through Pisidia, and came to Pamphylia.

²⁵ And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia;

²⁶ and thence they sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.

²⁷ And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all things that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith unto the Gentiles.

²⁸ And they tarried no little time with the disciples.

---

¹ And it came to pass in Iconium, that they did enter together into the synagogue of the Jews, and spake, so that there believed both of Jews and Greeks a great multitude;

² and the unbelieving Jews did stir up and made evil the souls of the nations against the brethren;

³ long time, indeed, therefore, did they abide speaking boldly in the Lord, who is testifying to the word of His grace, and granting signs and wonders to come to pass through their hands.

⁴ And the multitude of the city was divided, and some were with the Jews, and some with the apostles,

⁵ and when there was a purpose both of the nations and of the Jews with their rulers to use `them' despitefully, and to stone them,

⁶ they having become aware, did flee to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra, and Derbe, and to the region round about,

⁷ and there they were proclaiming good news.

⁸ And a certain man in Lystra, impotent in the feet, was sitting, being lame from the womb of his mother -- who never had walked,

⁹ this one was hearing Paul speaking, who, having stedfastly beheld him, and having seen that he hath faith to be saved,

¹⁰ said with a loud voice, `Stand up on thy feet upright;' and he was springing and walking,

¹¹ and the multitudes having seen what Paul did, did lift up their voice, in the speech of Lycaonia, saying, `The gods, having become like men, did come down unto us;'

¹² they were calling also Barnabas Zeus, and Paul Hermes, since he was the leader in speaking.

¹³ And the priest of the Zeus that is before their city, oxen and garlands unto the porches having brought, with the multitudes did wish to sacrifice,

¹⁴ and having heard, the apostles Barnabas and Paul, having rent their garments, did spring into the multitude, crying

¹⁵ and saying, `Men, why these things do ye? and we are men like-affected with you, proclaiming good news to you, from these vanities to turn unto the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all the things in them;

¹⁶ who in the past generations did suffer all the nations to go on in their ways,

¹⁷ though, indeed, without witness He did not leave himself, doing good -- from heaven giving rains to us, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness;'

¹⁸ and these things saying, scarcely did they restrain the multitudes from sacrificing to them.

¹⁹ And there came thither, from Antioch and Iconium, Jews, and they having persuaded the multitudes, and having stoned Paul, drew him outside of the city, having supposed him to be dead;

²⁰ and the disciples having surrounded him, having risen he entered into the city, and on the morrow he went forth with Barnabas to Derbe.

²¹ Having proclaimed good news also to that city, and having discipled many, they turned back to Lystra, and Iconium, and Antioch,

²² confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting to remain in the faith, and that through many tribulations it behoveth us to enter into the reign of God,

²³ and having appointed to them by vote elders in every assembly, having prayed with fastings, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.

²⁴ And having passed through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia,

²⁵ and having spoken in Perga the word, they went down to Attalia,

²⁶ and thence did sail to Antioch, whence they had been given by the grace of God for the work that they fulfilled;

²⁷ and having come and gathered together the assembly, they declared as many things as God did with them, and that He did open to the nations a door of faith;

²⁸ and they abode there not a little time with the disciples.

---

¹ And it came to pass in Iconium that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake that a great multitude of both Jews and Greeks believed.

² But the Jews who did not believe stirred up the minds of [those of] the nations and made [them] evil-affected against the brethren.

³ They stayed therefore a good while, speaking boldly, [confiding] in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace, giving signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

⁴ And the multitude of the city was divided, and some were with the Jews and some with the apostles.

⁵ And when an assault was making, both of [those of] the nations and [the] Jews with their rulers, to use [them] ill and stone them,

⁶ they, being aware of it, fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the surrounding country,

⁷ and there they were announcing the glad tidings.

⁸ And a certain man in Lystra, impotent in his feet, sat, [being] lame from his mother's womb, who had never walked.

⁹ This [man] heard Paul speaking, who, fixing his eyes on him, and seeing that he had faith to be healed,

¹⁰ said with a loud voice, Rise up straight upon thy feet: and he sprang up and walked.

¹¹ But the crowds, who saw what Paul had done, lifted up their voices in Lycaonian, saying, The gods, having made themselves like men, are come down to us.

¹² And they called Barnabas Jupiter, and Paul Mercury, because he took the lead in speaking.

¹³ And the priest of Jupiter who was before the city, having brought bulls and garlands to the gates, would have done sacrifice along with the crowds.

¹⁴ But the apostles Barnabas and Paul, having heard [it], rent their garments, and rushed out to the crowd, crying

¹⁵ and saying, Men, why do ye these things? *We* also are men of like passions with you, preaching to you to turn from these vanities to the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things in them;

¹⁶ who in the past generations suffered all the nations to go in their own ways,

¹⁷ though indeed he did not leave himself without witness, doing good, and giving to you from heaven rain and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.

¹⁸ And saying these things, they with difficulty kept the crowds from sacrificing to them.

¹⁹ But there came Jews from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds and stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing him to have died.

²⁰ But while the disciples encircled him, he rose up and entered into the city. And on the morrow he went away with Barnabas to Derbe.

²¹ And having announced the glad tidings to that city, and having made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, and Iconium, and Antioch,

²² establishing the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to abide in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.

²³ And having chosen them elders in each assembly, having prayed with fastings, they committed them to the Lord, on whom they had believed.

²⁴ And having passed through Pisidia they came to Pamphylia,

²⁵ and having spoken the word in Perga, they came down to Attalia;

²⁶ and thence they sailed away to Antioch, whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.

²⁷ And having arrived, and having brought together the assembly, they related to them all that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the nations.

²⁸ And they stayed no little time with the disciples.

---

¹ It happened in Iconium that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke that a great multitude both of Jews and of Greeks believed.

² But the disbelieving{or, disobedient} Jews stirred up and embittered the souls of the Gentiles against the brothers.

³ Therefore they stayed there a long time, speaking boldly in the Lord, who testified to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

⁴ But the multitude of the city was divided. Part sided with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

⁵ When some of both the Gentiles and the Jews, with their rulers, made a violent attempt to mistreat and stone them,

⁶ they became aware of it, and fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra, Derbe, and the surrounding region.

⁷ There they preached the Gospel.

⁸ At Lystra a certain man sat, impotent in his feet, a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked.

⁹ He was listening to Paul speaking, who, fastening eyes on him, and seeing that he had faith to be made whole,

¹⁰ said with a loud voice, "Stand upright on your feet!" He leaped up and walked.

¹¹ When the multitude saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice, saying in the language of Lycaonia, "The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!"

¹² They called Barnabas "Jupiter," and Paul "Mercury," because he was the chief speaker.

¹³ The priest of Jupiter, whose temple was in front of their city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and would have made a sacrifice along with the multitudes.

¹⁴ But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of it, they tore their clothes, and sprang into the multitude, crying out,

¹⁵ "Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to the living God, who made the sky and the earth and the sea, and all that is in them;

¹⁶ who in the generations gone by allowed all the nations to walk in their own ways.

¹⁷ Yet he didn't leave himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you{TR reads "us" instead of "you"} rains from the sky and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness."

¹⁸ Even saying these things, they hardly stopped the multitudes from making a sacrifice to them.

¹⁹ But some Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there, and having persuaded the multitudes, they stoned Paul, and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.

²⁰ But as the disciples stood around him, he rose up, and entered into the city. On the next day he went out with Barnabas to Derbe.

²¹ When they had preached the Gospel to that city, and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch,

²² confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that through many afflictions we must enter into the Kingdom of God.

²³ When they had appointed elders for them in every assembly, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they had believed.

²⁴ They passed through Pisidia, and came to Pamphylia.

²⁵ When they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia.

²⁶ From there they sailed to Antioch, from where they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.

²⁷ When they had arrived, and had gathered the assembly together, they reported all the things that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles.

²⁸ They stayed there with the disciples for a long time.

---

¹ Now in Iconium they went together to the Synagogue of the Jews and gave such teaching that a great number of Jews and Greeks had faith.

² But those Jews who had not the faith, made the minds of the Gentiles bitter against the brothers.

³ So they kept there for a long time, taking heart in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace by causing signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

⁴ But there was a division among the people of the town; some were on the side of the Jews and some on the side of the Apostles.

⁵ And when a violent attempt was made by the Gentiles and the Jews, with their rulers, to make an attack on them and have them stoned,

⁶ Having got news of it, they went in flight to the towns of Lycaonia, Lystra, and Derbe, and the country round about:

⁷ And went on preaching the good news there.

⁸ And at Lystra there was a certain man, who from birth had been without the use of his feet, never having had the power of walking.

⁹ This man was giving ear to the preaching of Paul, who, looking at him, and seeing that he had faith to be made well,

¹⁰ Said in a loud voice, Get up on your feet. And, jumping up, he went walking about.

¹¹ And when the people saw what Paul had done, they said in a loud voice, in the language of Lycaonia, The gods have come down to us in the form of men.

¹² And they gave the name of Jupiter to Barnabas, and to Paul that of Mercury, because he was the chief talker.

¹³ And the priest of the image of Jupiter, which was before the town, took oxen and flowers to the doors of the town, and was about to make an offering with the people.

¹⁴ But when this came to the ears of the Apostles, Paul and Barnabas, they went running out among the people, parting their clothing, and crying out,

¹⁵ Good people, why are you doing these things? We are men with the same feelings as you, and we give you the good news so that you may be turned away from these foolish things to the living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all things in them:

¹⁶ Who in the past let all nations go in the ways which seemed good to them.

¹⁷ But he was not without witness, because he did good, and gave you rain from heaven and times of fruit, making your hearts full of food and joy.

¹⁸ And even with these words, it was hard for them to keep the people from making an offering to them.

¹⁹ But some Jews came to that place from Antioch and Iconium, and got control over the people; and after stoning Paul, they had him pulled out of the town, taking him for dead.

²⁰ But when the disciples came round him, he got up and went into the town: and the day after he went away with Barnabas to Derbe.

²¹ And having made a number of disciples through the preaching of the good news in that town, they went back to Lystra and Iconium and Antioch,

²² Making strong the souls of the disciples, saying to them that they were to keep the faith, and that we have to go through troubles of all sorts to come into the kingdom of God.

²⁸ And they were with the disciples there for a long time.
