Acts 13:7-22

7whoG3739 was with the 1proconsulG446, SergiusG4588 PaulusG3972, a manG435 of intelligenceG4908. ThisG3778 manG3778 summonedG4341 BarnabasG921 and SaulG4569 and soughtG1934 to hearG191 the wordG3056 of GodG2316. 8But ElymasG1681 the 2magicianG3097 (for soG3779 his nameG3686 is translatedG3177) was opposingG436 them, seekingG2212 to turnG1294 the 3proconsulG446 awayG1294 from 4the faithG4102. 9But SaulG4569, whoG3588 was alsoG2532 known as PaulG3972, 56filledG4092 with the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, staredG816 at him, 10and saidG3004, “7You who are fullG4134 of allG3956 deceitG1388 and fraudG4468, you 8sonG5207 of the devilG1228, you enemyG2190 of allG3956 righteousnessG1343, will you not stopG3973 makingG1294 crookedG1294 9the straightG2117 waysG3598 of the LordG2962? 11NowG3568, beholdG2400, 10the handG5495 of the LordG2962 is upon you, and you will be blindG5185 and not seeG991 the sunG2246 for a timeG2540.” And immediatelyG3916 a mistG887 and a darknessG4655 fellG4098 upon him, and he wentG4013 aboutG4013 seekingG2212 those whoG5497 would leadG5497 him byG5497 theG5497 handG5497. 12ThenG5119 the 11proconsulG446 believedG4100 when he sawG3708 what had happenedG1096, being amazedG1605 at 12the teachingG1322 of the LordG2962.

13NowG1161 PaulG3972 and his companionsG3588G4012 putG321 outG321 toG321 seaG321 from 13PaphosG3974 and cameG2064 to 14PergaG4011 in 15PamphyliaG3828; but 16JohnG2491 leftG672 them and returnedG5290 to JerusalemG2414. 14But goingG1330 onG1330 from PergaG4011, they arrivedG3854 at 17PisidianG4099 18AntiochG490, and on 19the SabbathG4521 dayG2250 they wentG2064 into 20the synagogueG4864 and satG2523 downG2523. 15AfterG3326 21the readingG320 of the LawG3551 and 22the ProphetsG4396, 23the synagogueG752 officialsG752 sentG649 word to them, sayingG3004, “24BrothersG435G80, ifG1487 you have anyG5100 wordG3056 of exhortationG3874 for the peopleG2992, sayG3004 it.” 16PaulG3972 stoodG450 upG450, and 25motioningG2678 with his handG5495 saidG3004,

“MenG435 of IsraelG2475, and 26you who fearG5399 GodG2316, listenG191: 17The GodG2316 of thisG3778 peopleG2992 IsraelG2474 27choseG1586 our fathersG3962 and 2829madeG5312 the peopleG2992 greatG5312 duringG1722 their stayG3940 in the landG1093 of EgyptG125, and with an upliftedG5308 armG1023 30He ledG1806 them outG1806 from it. 18For 31a periodG5550 of aboutG5613 fortyG5066 yearsG5066 32He putG5159 upG5159 with them in the wildernessG2048. 1933When He had destroyedG2507 34sevenG2033 nationsG1484 in the landG1093 of CanaanG5477, He 35distributedG2624 their landG1093 asG2624 anG2624 inheritanceG2624--all of which took 36aboutG5613 450G5071G4004 yearsG2094. 20AfterG3326 theseG3778 thingsG3778 He 37gaveG1325 them judgesG2923 untilG2193 38SamuelG4545 the prophetG4396. 21ThenG2532 they 39askedG154 for a kingG935, and GodG2316 gaveG1325 them 40SaulG4549 the sonG5207 of KishG2797, a manG435 of the tribeG5443 of BenjaminG958, for fortyG5065 yearsG2094. 22AfterG2596 He had 41removedG3179 him, He raisedG1453 upG1453 DavidG1160 to be their kingG935, concerning whomG3739 He alsoG2532 testifiedG3140 and saidG3004, ‘42I have foundG2147 DavidG1160, the son of JesseG2421, a manG435 afterG2596 My heartG2588, whoG3739 will doG4160 allG3956 My 43willG2307.’
