Acts 14:12-28

12BarnabasG921 they calledG2564 ZeusG2203, andG1161 PaulG3972 they called HermesG2060, becauseG1894 heG846 wasG1510 theG3588 chiefG2233 speakerG3056. 13TheG3588 priestG2409 of ZeusG2203, whose temple wasG1510 just outsideG4253 theG3588 cityG4172, broughtG5342 bullsG5022 andG2532 wreathsG4725 toG1909 theG3588 city gatesG4440, hopingG2309 to offer a sacrificeG2380 along withG4862 theG3588 crowdsG3793.

14ButG1161 when theG3588 apostlesG652 BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972 found out about thisG191, they toreG1284 theirG846 clothesG2440 and rushedG1530 intoG1519 theG3588 crowdG3793, shoutingG2896, 15“MenG435, whyG5101 are you doingG4160 thisG3778? WeG1473 tooG2532 areG1510 only menG444, humanG3663 like youG4771. We are bringing you good newsG2097G4771 that you should turnG1994 fromG575 theseG3778 worthless thingsG3152 toG1909 the livingG2198 GodG2316, whoG3739 madeG4160 heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1093 andG2532 seaG2281 andG2532 everythingG3956G3588 inG1722 themG846. 16InG1722 pastG3944 generationsG1074, He letG1439 allG3956 nationsG1484 goG4198 theirG846 own wayG3598. 17YetG2543 He has not leftG3756G863 HimselfG848 without testimonyG267 to His goodnessG14: He givesG1325 youG4771 rainG5205 from heavenG3771 andG2532 fruitfulG2593 seasonsG2540, fillingG1705 yourG4771 heartsG2588 with foodG5160 andG2532 gladnessG2167.”

18EvenG2532 with theseG3778 wordsG3004, Paul and Barnabas could hardly stopG3433G2664 theG3588 crowdsG3793 fromG3588 sacrificingG3361G2380 to themG846.

19ThenG1161 some JewsG2453 arrivedG1904 fromG575 AntiochG490 andG2532 IconiumG2430 andG2532 won overG3982 theG3588 crowdsG3793. They stonedG3034 PaulG3972 and draggedG4951 him outsideG1854 theG3588 cityG4172, presumingG3543 heG846 was deadG2348. 20ButG1161 after theG3588 disciplesG3101 had gathered aroundG2944 himG846, he got upG450 and went back intoG1525G1519 theG3588 cityG4172. AndG2532 theG3588 next dayG1887 he leftG1831 withG4862 BarnabasG921 forG1519 DerbeG1191.

They preached the gospel toG2097 thatG1565 cityG4172 andG2532 made many disciplesG3100G2425. Then they returnedG5290 toG1519 LystraG3082, IconiumG2430, andG2532 AntiochG490, 22strengtheningG1991 theG3588 soulsG5590 of theG3588 disciplesG3101 and encouragingG3870 them to continueG1696 in theG3588 faithG4102. “WeG1473 mustG1163 endureG1223 manyG4183 hardshipsG2347 to enterG1525G1519 theG3588 kingdomG932 of GodG2316,” they said.

23

Paul and Barnabas appointedG5500 eldersG4245 for themG846 in eachG2596 churchG1577, prayingG4336 and fastingG3521 as they entrustedG3908 themG846 to theG3588 LordG2962, inG1519 whomG3739 they had believedG4100.

24After passing throughG1330 PisidiaG4099, they cameG2064 toG1519 PamphyliaG3828. 25AndG2532 when they had spokenG2980 theG3588 wordG3056 inG1722 PergaG4011, they went downG2597 toG1519 AttaliaG825.

26FromG2547 Attalia they sailedG636 toG1519 AntiochG490, whereG3606 they hadG1510 been commendedG3860 to theG3588 graceG5485 of GodG2316 forG1519 theG3588 workG2041 they had just completedG4137. 27When they arrivedG3854, they gatheredG4863 theG3588 church togetherG1577 and reportedG312 all thatG3745 GodG2316 had doneG4160 throughG3326 themG846, andG2532 howG3754 He had openedG455 the doorG2374 of faithG4102 to theG3588 GentilesG1484. 28AndG1161 they spentG1304 a longG3756G3641 timeG5550 there withG4862 theG3588 disciplesG3101.
