Acts:14
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And it came to pass (
5633 )
in Iconium ,
that they went (
5629 )
both together into the synagogue of the Jews ,
and so spake (
5658 ),
that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed (
5658 ).
*
But the unbelieving (
5723 )
Jews stirred up (
5656 )
the Gentiles ,
and made their minds evil affected (
5656 )
against the brethren .
*
Long time therefore abode they (
5656 )
speaking boldly (
5740 )
in the Lord ,
which gave testimony (
5723 )
unto the word of his grace ,
and granted (
5723 )
signs and wonders to be done (
5738 )
by their hands .
*
But the multitude of the city was divided (
5681 ):
and part held (
5713 )
with the Jews ,
and part with the apostles .
*
And when there was an assault made (
5633 )
both of the Gentiles ,
and also of the Jews with their rulers ,
to use them despitefully (
5658 ),
and to stone (
5658 )
them ,
*
They were ware (
5631 )
of it ,
and fled (
5627 )
unto Lystra and Derbe ,
cities of Lycaonia ,
and unto the region that lieth round about :
*
And there they preached the gospel (
5713 ) (
5734 ).
*
And there sat (
5711 )
a certain man at Lystra ,
impotent in his feet ,
being (
5723 )
a cripple from his mothers womb ,
who never had walked (
5715 ):
*
The same heard (
5707 )
Paul speak (
5723 ):
who stedfastly beholding (
5660 )
him ,
and perceiving (
5631 )
that he had (
5719 )
faith to be healed (
5683 ),
*
Said (
5627 )
with a loud voice ,
Stand (
5628 )
upright on thy feet .
And he leaped (
5711 )
and walked (
5707 ).
*
And when the people saw (
5631 )
what Paul had done (
5656 ),
they lifted up (
5656 )
their voices ,
saying (
5723 )
in the speech of Lycaonia ,
The gods are come down (
5627 )
to us in the likeness (
5685 )
of men .
*
And they called (
5707 )
Barnabas ,
Jupiter ;
and Paul ,
Mercurius ,
because he was (
5713 )
the chief (
5740 )
speaker .
*
Then the priest of Jupiter ,
which was (
5752 )
before their city ,
brought (
5660 )
oxen and garlands unto the gates ,
and would (
5707 )
have done sacrifice (
5721 )
with the people .
*
Which when the apostles ,
Barnabas and Paul ,
heard (
5660 )
of ,
they rent (
5660 )
their clothes ,
and ran (
5656 )
in among the people ,
crying out (
5723 ),
*
And saying (
5723 ),
Sirs ,
why do ye (
5719 )
these things ?
We also are (
5748 )
men of like passions with you ,
and preach (
5734 )
unto you that ye should turn (
5721 )
from these vanities unto the living (
5723 )
God ,
which made (
5656 )
heaven ,
and earth ,
and the sea ,
and all things that are therein :
*
Who in times past (
5768 )
suffered (
5656 )
all nations to walk (
5738 )
in their own ways .
*
Nevertheless he left (
5656 )
not himself without witness ,
in that he did good (
5723 ),
and gave (
5723 )
us rain from heaven ,
and fruitful seasons ,
filling (
5723 )
our hearts with food and gladness .
*
And with these sayings (
5723 )
scarce restrained they (
5656 )
the people ,
that they had not done sacrifice (
5721 )
unto them .
*
And there came thither (
5627 )
certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium ,
who persuaded (
5660 )
the people ,
and ,
having stoned (
5660 )
Paul ,
drew (
5707 )
him out of the city ,
supposing (
5660 )
he had been dead (
5755 ).
*
Howbeit ,
as the disciples stood round about (
5660 )
him ,
he rose up (
5631 ),
and came (
5627 )
into the city :
and the next day he departed (
5627 )
with Barnabas to Derbe .
*
And when they had preached the gospel (
5671 )
to that city ,
and had taught (
5660 )
many ,
they returned again (
5656 )
to Lystra ,
and to Iconium ,
and Antioch ,
*
Confirming (
5723 )
the souls of the disciples ,
and exhorting them (
5723 )
to continue (
5721 )
in the faith ,
and that we must (
5748 )
through much tribulation enter (
5629 )
into the kingdom of God .
*
And when they had ordained (
5660 )
them elders in every church ,
and had prayed (
5666 )
with fasting ,
they commended (
5639 )
them to the Lord ,
on whom they believed (
5715 ).
*
And after they had passed throughout (
5631 )
Pisidia ,
they came (
5627 )
to Pamphylia .
*
And when they had preached (
5660 )
the word in Perga ,
they went down (
5627 )
into Attalia :
*
And thence sailed (
5656 )
to Antioch ,
from whence they had been (
5713 )
recommended (
5772 )
to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled (
5656 ).
*
And when they were come (
5637 ),
and had gathered the church together (
5631 ),
they rehearsed (
5656 )
all that God had done (
5656 )
with them ,
and how he had opened (
5656 )
the door of faith unto the Gentiles .
*
And there they abode (
5707 )
long time with the disciples .
