Acts 13:7-22

7who wasG1510 with the proconsulG446, Sergius Paulus, a manG435 of understanding. The same calledG4341 unto him BarnabasG921 and SaulG4569, and soughtG1934 to hearG191 the wordG3056 of GodG2316. 8But Elymas the sorcerer (for soG3779 is his nameG3686 by interpretation) withstood them, seekingG2212 to turn aside the proconsulG446 from the faithG4102. 9But SaulG4569, who is alsoG2532 called PaulG3972, filledG4130 with the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, fastened his eyes on him, 10and saidG3004, O fullG4134 of all guile and all villany, thou sonG5207 of the devilG1228, thou enemyG2190 of all righteousnessG1343, wilt thou not ceaseG3973 to pervert the right waysG3598 of the LordG2962? 11And nowG1161, beholdG2400, the handG5495 of the LordG2962 isG1510 upon thee, and thou shalt beG1510 blindG5185, not seeingG3708 the sunG2246 for a seasonG2540. And immediatelyG3916 there fellG4098 on him a mist and a darknessG4655; and he went about seekingG2212 some to lead him by the handG5495. 12ThenG5119 the proconsulG446, whenG1096 he sawG3708 what was done, believedG4100, being astonishedG1605 at the teachingG1322 of the LordG2962.

13NowG1161 PaulG3972 and his company setG321 sailG321 from PaphosG3974, and cameG2064 to PergaG4011 in PamphyliaG3828: and JohnG2491 departed from them and returnedG5290 to JerusalemG2414. 14But they, passingG1330 through from PergaG4011, cameG2064 to AntiochG490 of PisidiaG4099; and they went into the synagogueG4864 on the sabbathG4521 dayG2250, and satG2523 downG2523. 15And after the readingG320 of the lawG3551 and the prophetsG4396 the rulers of the synagogueG752 sentG649 unto them, sayingG3004, Brethren, if ye have any wordG3056 of exhortationG3874 for the peopleG2992, sayG3004 on. 16And PaulG3972 stoodG450 up, and beckoning with the handG5495 saidG3004,

MenG435 of Israel, and ye that fearG5399 GodG2316, hearken: 17The GodG2316 of this peopleG2992 IsraelG2474 chose our fathersG3962, and exaltedG5312 the peopleG2992 when they sojourned in the landG1093 of EgyptG125, and with a highG5308 armG1023 led he them forth out of it. 18And for about the timeG5550 of fortyG5063 years as a nursing-father bare he them in the wildernessG2048. 19And when he had destroyed sevenG2033 nationsG1484 in the landG1093 of CanaanG5477, he gave them their landG1093 for an inheritance, for about four hundred and fifty years: 20and after these thingsG3778 he gaveG1325 them judgesG2923 until SamuelG4545 the prophetG4396. 21And afterward they askedG154 for a kingG935: and GodG2316 gaveG1325 unto them SaulG4549 the sonG5207 of Kish, a manG435 of the tribeG5443 of BenjaminG958, for the space of fortyG5062 yearsG2094. 22And when he had removed him, he raisedG1453 up DavidG1138 to be their kingG935; to whom alsoG2532 he bare witnessG3140 and saidG3004, I have foundG2147 DavidG1138 the son of JesseG2421, a manG435 after my heartG2588, who shall do all my will.
