Acts 14:8-12

8At 1Lystra 2a man was sitting who had no strength in his feet, lame from his mother’s womb, who had never walked.

9This man was listening to Paul as he spoke, who, 3when he had fixed his gaze on him and had seen that he had 4faith to be 5made well,

10said with a loud voice, “Stand upright on your feet.” 6And he leaped up and began to walk.

11When the crowds saw what Paul had done, they raised their voice, saying in the 7Lycaonian language, “8The gods have become like men and have come down to us.”

12And they began calling Barnabas, 9Zeus, and Paul, 10Hermes, because he was 11the chief speaker.
