| 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 . |
