Acts 14:19-28

English Standard Version

Paul Stoned at Lystra

^19 (A)But Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds, ^(B)they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead. ²⁰ But when the disciples gathered about him, he rose up and entered the city, and on the next day he went on with Barnabas to Derbe. ²¹ When they had preached the gospel to that city and had ^(C)made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch, ^22 (D)strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them ^(E)to continue in ^(F)the faith, and saying that ^(G)through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God. ²³ And when they had ^(H)appointed ^(I)elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting ^(J)they committed them to the Lord in whom they had believed.

²⁴ Then they passed through Pisidia and came to Pamphylia. ²⁵ And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia, ²⁶ and from there they sailed to Antioch, ^(K)where they had been ^(L)commended to the grace of God for the work that they had fulfilled. ²⁷ And when they arrived and gathered the church together, ^(M)they declared all that God had done with them, and ^(N)how he had ^(O)opened ^(P)a door of faith to the Gentiles. ²⁸ And they remained no little time with the disciples.
