Acts 9:26-31
261When he cameG3854 to JerusalemG2419, he triedG3985 repeatedly to associateG2853 with the disciplesG3101; and yet they wereG5399 allG3956 afraidG5399 of him, as they did not believeG4100 that he was a discipleG3101. 27But 2BarnabasG921 tookG1949 holdG1949 of him and broughtG71 him to the apostlesG652 and describedG1334 to them howG4459 he had 3seenG3708 the LordG2962 on the roadG3598, and that He had talkedG2980 to him, and howG4459 4he had 5spokenG3955 outG3955 boldlyG3955 in the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 at DamascusG1154. 28And he was with them, 6movingG1531G2532G1607 aboutG1531G2532G1607 freelyG1531G2532G1607 in JerusalemG2419, 7speakingG3955 outG3955 boldlyG3955 in the nameG3686 of the LordG2962. 29And he was talkingG2980 and arguingG4802 with the 89HellenisticG1675 Jews; but they were attemptingG2021 to putG337 him toG337 deathG337. 30NowG1161 when 10the 11brothersG80 learnedG1921 of it, they broughtG2609 him downG2609 to 12CaesareaG2542 and 13sentG1821 him awayG1821 to 14TarsusG5019.
31SoG3767 15the churchG1577 throughoutG2596G3650 JudeaG2449, GalileeG1056, and SamariaG4540 16enjoyedG2192 peaceG1515, as it was being builtG3618 up; and as it 17continuedG4198 in the fearG5401 of the LordG2962 and in the comfortG3874 of the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, it kept increasingG4129.
