Acts 14:16-21

16In past generations he allowed all the nations to go their own ways,

17yet he did not leave himself without a witness by doing good, by giving you rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, satisfying you with food and your hearts with joy.”

18Even by saying these things, they scarcely persuaded the crowds not to offer sacrifice to them.

19But Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and after winning the crowds over, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, presuming him to be dead.

20But after the disciples had surrounded him, he got up and went back into the city. On the next day he left with Barnabas for Derbe.

21After they had proclaimed the good news in that city and made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, to Iconium, and to Antioch.
