1And 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.studyinterlinear
2But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.studyinterlinear
3Long 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.studyinterlinear
4But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.studyinterlinear
5And 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,studyinterlinear
6They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about:studyinterlinear
7And there they preached the gospel.studyinterlinear
8And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother’s womb, who never had walked:studyinterlinear
9The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,studyinterlinear
10Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.studyinterlinear
11And 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.studyinterlinear
12And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.studyinterlinear
13Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.studyinterlinear
14Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,studyinterlinear
15And 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:studyinterlinear
16Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.studyinterlinear
17Nevertheless 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.studyinterlinear
18And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.studyinterlinear
19And 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.studyinterlinear
20Howbeit, 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.studyinterlinear
21And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,studyinterlinear
22Confirming 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.studyinterlinear
23And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.studyinterlinear
24And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.studyinterlinear
25And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:studyinterlinear
26And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.studyinterlinear
27And 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.studyinterlinear
28And there they abode long time with the disciples.studyinterlinear
