A long time therefore they abode there, dealing confidently in the Lord, who gave testimony to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
4
And the multitude of the city was divided. And some of them indeed held with the Jews, but some with the apostles.
5
And when there was an assault made by the Gentiles and the Jews with their rulers, to use them contumeliously and to stone them:
6
They, understanding it, fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the whole country round about:
7
(14-6) and were there preaching the gospel.
8
(14-7) And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, a cripple from his mother’s womb, who never had walked.
9
(14-8) This same heard Paul speaking. Who looking upon him and seeing that he had faith to be healed,
10
(14-9) Said with a loud voice: Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped up and walked.
11
(14-10) And when the multitudes had seen what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice in the Lycaonian tongue, saying: The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.
12
(14-11) And they called Barnabas, Jupiter: but Paul, Mercury: because he was chief speaker.
13
(14-12) The priest also of Jupiter that was before the city, bringing oxen and garlands before the gate, would have offered sacrifice with the people.
