14 It came to pass ginomai · de in en Iconium Ikonion that Paul and Barnabas autos went eiserchomai as kata · ho usual autos into eis the ho synagogue synagōgē of the ho Jews Ioudaios and kai spoke laleō in such houtōs a way that hōste a large polys group plēthos of both te Jews Ioudaios and kai Greeks Hellēn believed pisteuō. But de the ho Jews Ioudaios who did not believe apeitheō stirred epegeirō up and kai embittered kakoō the ho minds psychē of the ho Gentiles ethnos against kata their ho brothers adelphos. So oun they stayed there diatribō for a considerable hikanos time chronos, speaking parrēsiazomai out boldly about epi the ho Lord kyrios, who ho witnessed martyreō to epi the ho message logos of ho his autos grace charis, granting didōmi signs sēmeion and kai wonders teras to be done ginomai through dia · ho their autos hands cheir. But de the ho people plēthos of the ho city polis were divided schizō; while kai some ho sided eimi with syn the ho Jews Ioudaios, others ho · de sided with syn the ho apostles apostolos. When hōs · de there was ginomai an attempt hormē by ho both te Gentiles ethnos and kai Jews Ioudaios along syn with · ho their autos rulers archōn, to mistreat hybrizō them and kai to stone lithoboleō them autos, they became synoraō aware of it and fled katapheugō to eis the ho cities polis of ho Lycaonia Lykaonia, Lystra Lystra and kai Derbe Derbē, and kai to the ho surrounding perichōros region , and kakei there they were eimi preaching euangelizō the good news .

Now kai there was a tis man anēr sitting kathēmai in en Lystra Lystra, whose ho feet pous were useless adynatos, lame chōlos from ek the womb koilia of his autos mother mētēr, who hos had never oudepote walked peripateō. This houtos man listened akouō to · ho Paul Paulos speaking laleō.

For we hēmeis too kai are eimi men anthrōpos subject to the same frailties homoiopathēs as you hymeis, bringing euangelizō you hymeis good news to turn away epistrephō from apo these houtos · ho vain mataios things to epi the living zaō God theos, who hos made poieō the ho heaven ouranos and kai the ho earth and kai the ho sea thalassa and kai everything pas · ho in en them autos, 16 who hos in en · ho past paroichomai generations genea allowed eaō all pas the ho nations ethnos to walk poreuō in ho their own autos ways hodos; 17 yet kaitoi he did aphiēmi not ou leave aphiēmi himself autos without witness amartyros, for he did good agathoergeō, giving didōmi you hymeis rains hyetos from heaven ouranothen and kai fruitful karpophoros seasons kairos, filling empiplēmi your hymeis hearts kardia with food trophē and kai gladness euphrosynē.” · ho 18 Even kai saying legō these houtos things , they barely molis restrained katapauō the ho crowds ochlos · ho from offering thuō sacrifice to them autos. 19 But de there came eperchomai Jews Ioudaios from apo Antioch Antiocheia and kai Iconium Ikonion, and kai having persuaded peithō the ho crowd ochlos · kai they stoned lithazō · ho Paul Paulos and dragged syrō him outside exō the ho city polis, thinking nomizō him autos to be dead thnēskō. 20 But de when the ho disciples mathētēs gathered kykloō around him autos, he got anistēmi up and went eiserchomai into eis the ho city polis; and kai on the ho following epaurion day he set exerchomai off with syn · ho Barnabas Barnabas for eis Derbe Derbē.

Paul and Barnabas at Iconium

14 Now at Iconium (A)they entered together into the Jewish synagogue and spoke in such a way that a great number of both Jews and Greeks believed. (B)But the (C)unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against (D)the brothers.[a] So they remained for a long time, speaking boldly for (E)the Lord, who bore witness to (F)the word of his grace, (G)granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands. But the people of the city (H)were divided; (I)some sided with the Jews and some with the apostles. When an attempt was made by both Gentiles and Jews, with their rulers, (J)to mistreat them and (K)to stone them, they learned of it and (L)fled to (M)Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the surrounding country, and there they continued to preach the gospel.

Paul and Barnabas at Lystra

Now at Lystra there was a man sitting who could not use his feet. He was (N)crippled from birth and had never walked. He listened to Paul speaking. And Paul, looking intently at him and (O)seeing that he had faith to be made well,[b] 10 said in a loud voice, “Stand upright on your feet.” And he (P)sprang up and began walking. 11 And when the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in Lycaonian, (Q)“The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!” 12 Barnabas they called (R)Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker. 13 And the priest of (S)Zeus, whose temple was at the entrance to the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates and (T)wanted to offer sacrifice with the crowds. 14 But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of it, they (U)tore their garments and rushed out into the crowd, crying out, 15 “Men, (V)why are you doing these things? We also are men, (W)of like nature with you, and we bring you good news, that (X)you should turn from these (Y)vain things to (Z)a living God, (AA)who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them. 16 In past generations he (AB)allowed all the nations (AC)to walk in their own ways. 17 Yet (AD)he did not leave himself without witness, for he (AE)did good by (AF)giving you rains from heaven and (AG)fruitful seasons, satisfying your hearts with (AH)food and (AI)gladness.” 18 Even with these words they scarcely restrained the people from offering sacrifice to them.

Paul Stoned at Lystra

19 (AJ)But Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds, (AK)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 (AL)made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch, 22 (AM)strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them (AN)to continue in (AO)the faith, and saying that (AP)through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God. 23 And when they had (AQ)appointed (AR)elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting (AS)they committed them to the Lord in whom they had believed.

Paul and Barnabas Return to Antioch in Syria

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, (AT)where they had been (AU)commended to the grace of God for the work that they had fulfilled. 27 And when they arrived and gathered the church together, (AV)they declared all that God had done with them, and (AW)how he had (AX)opened (AY)a door of faith to the Gentiles. 28 And they remained no little time with the disciples.
