13 [a]Now when Paul and they that were with him were departed by ship from Paphos, they came to Perga a city of Pamphylia: then John departed from them, and returned to Jerusalem.
14 But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch a city of [b]Pisidia, and went into the Synagogue on the Sabbath day, and sat down.
15 [c]And after the lecture of the Law and Prophets, the rulers of the Synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye [d]have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.
