Acts 13:40-51

40See therefore that that which is spoken in the prophets do not come upon [you],

41Behold, ye despisers, and wonder and perish; for I work a work in your days, a work which ye will in no wise believe if one declare it to you.

42And as they went out they begged that these words might be spoken to them the ensuing sabbath.

43And the congregation of the synagogue having broken up, many of the Jews and of the worshipping proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of 1God.

44And on the coming sabbath almost all the city was gathered together to hear the word of 2God.

45But the Jews, seeing the crowds, were filled with envy, and contradicted the things said by Paul, [contradicting and] speaking injuriously.

46And Paul and Barnabas spoke boldly and said, It was necessary that the word of 3God should be first spoken to you; but, since ye thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, lo, we turn to the nations;

47for thus has the Lord enjoined us: I have set thee for a light of the nations, that thou shouldest be for salvation to the end of the earth.

48And [those of] the nations, hearing it, rejoiced, and glorified the word of the Lord, and believed, as many as were ordained to eternal life.

49And the word of the Lord was carried through the whole country.

50But the Jews excited the women of the upper classes who were worshippers, and the first people of the city, and raised a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and cast them out of their coasts.

51But they, having shaken off the dust of their feet against them, came to Iconium.
