Acts 14:13-15

13Moreover, the priest of Zeus, whose temple was 1just outside the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and 2wanted to offer sacrifice with the crowds.

14But when 3the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard about it, they 4tore their 5robes and rushed out into the crowd, crying out

15and saying, “Men, why are you doing these things? We are also 6men, of the same nature as you, 7preaching the gospel to you, to turn from these 89useless things to a 10living God, who 11made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and everything that is in them.
