*
And putting out from Paphos with those around him ,
Paul came to Perga of Pamphylia .
And separating from them ,
John returned to Jerusalem .
*
But going through from Perga ,
they came to Antioch-Pisidia ,
and going into the synagogue on the day of the sabbaths ,
they sat down .
*
And after the reading of the Law ,
and of the Prophets ,
the synagogue rulers sent to them ,
saying ,
Men ,
brothers ,
if there is a word of exhortation to the people ,
speak .
*
And rising up ,
and signaling with his hand ,
Paul said :
Men ,
Israelites ,
and the ones fearing God ,
listen .
*
The God of this people Israel chose out our fathers ,
and exalted the people in their stay in the land of Egypt .
And with a high arm ,
He led them out of it .
*
And as forty years time passed ,
He tenderly bore them in the wilderness .

And after these things ,
as four hundred and fifty years passed ,
He gave judges until Samuel the prophet .
*
And from there they asked for a king .
And God gave Saul the son of Kish to them ,
a man of the tribe of Benjamin ,
for forty years .
*
And removing him ,
He raised up to them David for a king ,
to whom He also said ,
witnessing , "
I found David "
the son of Jesse "
to be a man according to My own heart ,
who will do all My will ."

*
Of the seed of this one ,
according to promise ,
God raised up to Israel a Savior ,
Jesus ;
*
John going before to proclaim before the face of His entrance a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel .
*
And as John fulfilled the course ,
he said ,
Whom do you suppose me to be ?
I am not He ,
but ,
behold , "
He comes after me ,
of whom I am not worthy to loosen the sandal of His feet ."

Men ,
brothers ,
sons of the race of Abraham ,
and the ones among you fearing God ,
to you the word of this salvation was sent .
*
For those dwelling in Jerusalem ,
and their rulers ,
not having known this One ,
and the voices of the prophets being read throughout every sabbath ,
condemning Him ,
they fulfilled the Scriptures .
*
And finding not one cause of death ,
they asked Pilate to do away with Him .
*
And when they finished all the things having been written concerning Him ,
taking Him down from the tree ,
they laid Him in a tomb .
*
But God raised Him from the dead ;
*
who appeared for many days to those coming up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem ,
who are witnesses of Him to the people .
*
And we preach the gospel to you ,
the promise made to the fathers ,
*
that this God has fulfilled to us ,
their children ,
raising up Jesus ;
as also it has been written in the second Psalm , "
You are My Son ,
today I have begotten You ."

Then let it be known to you ,
men ,
brothers ,
that through this One remission of sin is announced to you .
*
And everyone believing in this One is justified from all things which you could not be justified by the Law of Moses .
*
Then watch that the thing spoken in the Prophets may not come on you :
* "
Behold ,
you despisers ," "
and marvel ," "
and perish ,
because I work a work in your days ,"
a work which you would "
in no way believe if anyone declares it to you ."

*
But the Jews having gone out of the synagogue ,
the nations begged that these words be spoken to them on the next sabbath .
*
And the synagogue being broken up ,
many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas ,
who speaking to them persuaded them to continue in the grace of God .
*
And in the coming sabbath ,
almost all the city was gathered to hear the Word of God .
*
And the Jews seeing the crowds ,
they were filled with jealousy ,
and contradicted the things being spoken by Paul ,
contradicting and blaspheming .
*
But speaking boldly ,
Paul and Barnabas said ,
It was necessary for the Word of God to be spoken first to you ;
but since you indeed thrust it away and judge yourselves not worthy of eternal life ,
behold ,
we turn to the nations .
*
For so the Lord has commanded us , "
I have set You for a Light of nations ,
that You be for salvation to the end of the earth ."
Isaiah .

And hearing ,
the nations rejoiced and glorified the Word of the Lord .
And as many as had been appointed to eternal life believed .
*
And the Word of the Lord was carried through all the country .
*
But the Jews excited the devout and honorable women ,
and the chief ones of the city ,
and raised up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas ,
and threw them out from their borders .
*
But these shaking off the dust of their feet on them ,
they came into Iconium .
*
And the disciples were filled with joy and the Holy Spirit .
