Book of Common Prayer

¹⁹ But certain Jews from Antioch and lconium came there, and they won the people over, and stoned Paul and drew him out of the city, supposing him to be dead. ²⁰ However, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up and went into the city.

And the next day, Paul departed with Barnabas to Derbe. ²¹ After they had preached to that city and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium and Antioch, ²² and strengthened the disciples’ souls, exhorting them to continue in the faith, affirming that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God. ²³ And they appointed elders by election in every congregation, and prayed and fasted, and committed them to God on whom they believed.

²⁴ And they went through Pisidia, and came into Pamphylia. ²⁵ And when they had preached the word of God in Perga, they descended into Attalia, ²⁶ and from there returned by ship to Antioch, where they had been committed to the grace of God for the work that they had completed. ²⁷ When they arrived and had gathered the congregation together, they described all that God had done by them, and how he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles. ²⁸ And they remained there a long time with the disciples.

³⁵ And the same day, when evening was come, he said to them, Let us pass over to the other side. ³⁶ And they left the people and took him just as he was in the boat. And there were also with him other boats. ³⁷ And there arose a great storm of wind, and it dashed the waves into the boat so that it was full. ³⁸ And he was in the stern, asleep on a pillow. And they awoke him and said to him, Teacher, do you not care if we perish?

³⁹ And he rose up and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, and be still! And the wind allayed, and there followed a great calm. ⁴⁰ And he said to them, Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith? ⁴¹ And they feared exceedingly and said to one another, What manner of man is this? For both wind and sea obey him.
