AC-14:1 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.
AC-14:2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and
made their minds
evil affected against the brethren.
AC-14:3 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.
AC-14:4 But the multitude of the city was divided: and part
held with the
Jews, and part with the apostles.
AC-14:5 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,
AC-14:6 They were ware of [it], and fled unto Lystra and Derbe,
cities of
Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about:
AC-14:7 And there they preached the gospel.
AC-14:8 And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his
feet, being a
cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked:
AC-14:9 The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him,
and
perceiving that he had faith to be healed,
AC-14:10 Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And
he leaped and
walked.
AC-14:11 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.
AC-14:12 And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius,
because he
was the chief speaker.
AC-14:13 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.
AC-14:14 [Which] when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard
[of], they rent
their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,
AC-14:15 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:
AC-14:16 Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in
their own ways.
AC-14:17 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.
AC-14:18 And with these sayings scarce restrained they the
people, that they
had not done sacrifice unto them.
AC-14:19 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.
AC-14:20 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.
AC-14:21 And when they had preached the gospel to that city,
and had taught
many, they returned again to Lystra, and [to] Iconium, and
Antioch,
