updv@Acts:13:1 @ Now there were at Antioch, in the church that was [there], prophets and teachers, Barnabas, and Symeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen the foster-brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

updv@Acts:13:2 @ And as they were ministering to the Lord, and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.

updv@Acts:13:3 @ Then, when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.

updv@Acts:13:4 @ So they, being sent forth by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia; and from there they sailed to Cyprus.

updv@Acts:13:5 @ And when they were at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John as their attendant.

updv@Acts:13:6 @ And when they had gone through the whole island to Paphos, they found a man [who was] a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesus;

updv@Acts:13:7 @ who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of understanding. The same called to him Barnabas and Saul, and sought to hear the word of God.

updv@Acts:13:8 @ But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn aside the proconsul from the faith.

updv@Acts:13:9 @ But Saul, who is also [called] Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, fastened his eyes on him,

updv@Acts:13:10 @ and said, O full of all guile and all villany, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?

updv@Acts:13:11 @ And now, look, the hand of the Lord is on you, and you will be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.

updv@Acts:13:12 @ Then the proconsul, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.

updv@Acts:13:13 @ Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos, and came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departed from them and returned to Jerusalem.

updv@Acts:13:14 @ But they, passing through from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia; and they went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and sat down.

updv@Acts:13:15 @ And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Men, brothers, if you(note:){+}(:note) have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.

updv@Acts:13:16 @ And Paul stood up, and beckoning with the hand said, Men, Israelites, and you(note:){+}(:note) who fear God, listen:

updv@Acts:13:17 @ The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they sojourned in the land of Egypt, and with a high arm led he them forth out of it.

updv@Acts:13:18 @ And for about the time of forty years as a foster-father he bore them in the wilderness.

updv@Acts:13:19 @ And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave [them] their land for an inheritance, for about four hundred and fifty years:

updv@Acts:13:20 @ and after these things he gave [them] judges until Samuel the prophet.

updv@Acts:13:21 @ And afterward they asked for a king: and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for the space of forty years.

updv@Acts:13:22 @ And when he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king; to whom also he bore witness and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after My heart, who will do all My will.

updv@Acts:13:23 @ Of this man's seed has God according to promise brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus;

updv@Acts:13:24 @ when John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

updv@Acts:13:25 @ And as John was fulfilling his course, he said, What do you(note:){+}(:note) suppose that I am? I am not [he]. But look, there comes one after me the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to unloose.

updv@Acts:13:26 @ Men, brothers, sons of the stock of Abraham, and those among you(note:){+}(:note) who fear God, to us is the word of this salvation sent forth.

updv@Acts:13:27 @ For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they didn't know him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath, fulfilled [them] by condemning [him].

updv@Acts:13:28 @ And though they found no cause of death [in him], yet they asked of Pilate that he should be slain.

updv@Acts:13:29 @ And when they had fulfilled all things that were written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a tomb.

updv@Acts:13:30 @ But God raised him from the dead:

updv@Acts:13:31 @ and he was seen for many days of those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are now his witnesses to the people.

updv@Acts:13:32 @ And we bring you(note:){+}(:note) good news of the promise made to the fathers,

updv@Acts:13:33 @ that God has fulfilled these things to us, their children, in that he raised up Jesus; as also it is written in the second psalm, You are my Son, this day I have begotten you.

updv@Acts:13:34 @ And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he has spoken on this wise, I will give you(note:){+}(:note) the holy and sure [blessings] of David.

updv@Acts:13:35 @ Because he says also in another [psalm], You will not give Your Holy One to see corruption.

updv@Acts:13:36 @ For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, and was laid to his fathers, and saw corruption:

updv@Acts:13:37 @ but he whom God raised up saw no corruption.

updv@Acts:13:38 @ Be it known to you(note:){+}(:note) therefore, men, brothers, that through this man is proclaimed to you{+} remission of sins, and from all things which you{+} could not be justified by the law of Moses.

updv@Acts:13:39 @ By this man everyone who believes is justified.

updv@Acts:13:40 @ Beware therefore, lest that come upon [you(note:){+}(:note)] which is spoken in the prophets:

updv@Acts:13:41 @ Look, you(note:){+}(:note) despisers, and wonder, and perish; For I work a work in your{+} days, A work which you{+} will in no way believe, if one declares it to you{+}.

updv@Acts:13:42 @ And as they went out, they implored that these words might be spoken to them the next Sabbath.

updv@Acts:13:43 @ Now when the synagogue broke up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.

updv@Acts:13:44 @ And the next Sabbath almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of the Lord.

updv@Acts:13:45 @ But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and blasphemed.

updv@Acts:13:46 @ And Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you(note:){+}(:note). Seeing you{+} thrust it from you{+}, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, look, we turn to the Gentiles.

updv@Acts:13:47 @ For so has the Lord commanded us, [saying], I have set you for a light of the Gentiles, That you should be for salvation to the uttermost part of the earth.

updv@Acts:13:48 @ And as the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were appointed to eternal life believed.

updv@Acts:13:49 @ And the word of the Lord was spread abroad throughout all the region.

updv@Acts:13:50 @ But the Jews urged on the devout women of honorable estate, and the chief men of the city, and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and cast them out of their borders.
