Acts 14:12-15

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⌟.

14When the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard what was happening, they were very upset. They rushed into the crowd

15and said, “Men, what are you doing? We’re human beings like you. We’re spreading the Good News to you to turn you away from these worthless gods to the living God. The living God made the sky, the land, the sea, and everything in them.
