12AndG5037 they calledG2564 BarnabasG3588G921, JupiterG2203; andG1161 PaulG3588G3972, MercuriusG2060, becauseG1894 heG846 wasG1510 the chiefG3588G2233 speakerG3588G3056. 13ThenG1161 the priestG2409 of JupiterG3588G2203, which wasG1510 beforeG4253 theirG846 cityG3588G4172, broughtG5342 oxenG5022 andG2532 garlandsG4725 untoG1909 the gatesG3588G4440, and would haveG2309 done sacrificeG2380 withG4862 the peopleG3588G3793. 14Which whenG191 the apostlesG3588G652, BarnabasG921 andG2532 PaulG3972, heardG191 of, they rentG1284 theirG846 clothesG3588G2440, and ran inG1530 amongG1519 the peopleG3588G3793, crying outG2896, 15AndG2532 sayingG3004, SirsG435, whyG5101 do yeG4160 these thingsG3778? WeG1473 alsoG2532 areG1510 menG444 of like passionsG3663 with youG4771, and preachG2097 unto youG4771 that ye should turnG1994 fromG575 theseG3778 vanitiesG3588G3152 untoG1909 the livingG3588G2198 GodG3588G2316, whichG3739 madeG4160 heavenG3588G3772, andG2532 earthG3588G1093, andG2532 the seaG3588G2281, andG2532 all thingsG3956 that are thereinG3588G1722G846: 16WhoG3739 inG1722 timesG1074 pastG3944 sufferedG1439 allG3956 nationsG3588G1484 to walk inG4198 their ownG846 waysG3588G3598. 17NeverthelessG2544 he leftG863 notG3756 himselfG1438 without witnessG267, in that he did goodG15, and gaveG1325 usG1473 rainG5205 from heavenG3771, andG2532 fruitfulG2593 seasons, fillingG1705 ourG1473 heartsG3588G2588 with foodG5160 andG2532 gladnessG2167. 18AndG2532 with theseG3778 sayingsG3004 scarceG3433 restrained theyG2664 the peopleG3588G3793, that they hadG2380 notG3361 done sacrificeG2380 unto themG846.
