| 1 | And it happened in Ikonion that upon them entering into the assembly hall of the Judaeans and speaking thusly, that a great multitude of both the Judaeans and the Greeks were believing. |
| 2 | But the disbelieving Judaeans were aroused and befouled the souls of the people against the brethren. |
| 3 | So then they spent a considerable time speaking openly in reference to the Prince, in attesting to the Word of His favor giving signs and wonders to happen through their hands. |
| 4 | But the multitude of the city was divided, and some were with the Judaeans, but some were with the ambassadors. |
| 5 | And as there came an attack of both the people and the Judaeans with their rulers to outrage and to stone them, |
| 6 | seeing it they fled for refuge into the cities of Lukaonia, Lustra and Derbe and the surrounding area, |
| 7 | and there they were announcing the good message. |
| 8 | And a certain man sat in Lustra, powerless in the feet, lame from the womb of his mother, who never did walk. |
| 9 | He heard the speaking of Paul, who looking at him and seeing that he had faith for which to be saved |
| 10 | said with a great voice: "Arise upon your feet upright!" And he leapt and walked about. |
| 11 | Then the crowds seeing that which Paul had done raised their voice in Lukaonian saying "The gods being like men have come down to us!" |
| 12 | And they called Barnabas "Zeus", and Paul "Hermes" since he was conductor of the Word. |
| 13 | And the priest of that Zeus which is before the city, bringing bulls and garlands by the gates with the crowds desired to sacrifice. |
| 14 | But the ambassadors Barnabas and Paul hearing it, tearing their garments sprung forth to the crowd screaming |
| 15 | and saying "Men! What are these things which you do? We also are men, being of like nature with you! Announcing the good message to you, from these vanities to turn to Yahweh who lives, 'Who has made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all things which are in them.' |
| 16 | Who in generations having passed allowed all of the Nations to go in their own ways. |
| 17 | And yet doing good He did not leave Himself without witness, from heaven giving to you rain and fruitful seasons, your hearts being filled of food and merriment." |
| 18 | And saying these things hardly did they stop the crowds, for which not to make sacrifice to them. |
| 19 | Then Judaeans came forth from Antiocheia and Ikonion, and persuading the crowds and stoning Paul they dragged him outside of the city, believing him to be dead. |
| 20 | And upon the students' surrounding him, arising he went into the city. And the next day he went out with Barnabas into Derbe. |
| 21 | And announcing the good message in that city and many becoming students, they returned to Lustra and to Ikonion and to Antiocheia |
| 22 | reinforcing the spirits of the students, encouraging them to abide in the faith and that it is necessary through many tribulations for us to enter into the Kingdom of Yahweh. |
| 23 | And elders being elected by them in each assembly, praying with fasting they presented them in whom they had confidence with the authority. |
| 24 | And passing through Pisidia they came into Pamphulia, |
| 25 | and speaking the Word in Perge they went down into Attaleia, |
| 26 | and from there sailed off to Antiocheia, where they were commended with the favor of Yahweh for the work which they completed. |
| 27 | Then coming and gathering together the assembly they reported as much as Yahweh had done with them and that He opened the door of the faith to the Nations. |
| 28 | And they spent not a little time with the students. |
