Acts 14:11-13

11The crowds who saw what Paul had done shouted in the Lycaonian language, “The gods have come to us, and they look human.”

12They addressed Barnabas as Zeus and Paul as Hermes because Paul did most of the talking.

13Zeus’ temple was at the entrance to the city. The priest of the god Zeus brought bulls with flowery wreaths around their necks to the temple gates. The priest and the crowd wanted to offer a sacrifice ⌞to Paul and Barnabas⌟.
