Tyndale New Testament 1It fortuned in Iconium that they went both to gether into the Sinagogue of the jewes, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the jewes and also of the greeks believed.
2But the unbelieving jews, stirred up and unquieted the minds of the gentiles against the brethren.
3Long time abode they there and quit themselves boldly with the help of the Lord, the which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, And caused signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
4The people of city were divided: and part held with the jews, and part with the apostles.
5When there was a fault made both of the gentiles and also of the jewes with their rulers, to put them to shame and to stone them,
6they were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derba, cities of Licaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about,
7and there preached the gospell. 8And there sat a certain man at Lystra weak in his feet, being halt from his mother's womb, and never walked. 9The same heard Paul preach, which beheld him and perceived that he had faith to be whole, 10and said with a loud voice: stand upright on thy feet. And he started up, and walked. 11When the people saw what Paul had done, they lift up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia: Goddes are come down to us in the likeness of men. 12And they called Barnabas, Iupiter, and Paul Mercurius, because he was the preacher. 13Then Iupiter's priest, which dwelt before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the church porch, and would have done sacrifice with the people. 14When the apostles, Barnabas and Paul heard that, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying 15and saying: sirs, why do ye this? We are mortal men like unto you, and preach unto you, that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven and earth and the sea and all that in them is, 16the which in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways. 17Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he shewed his benefits, in giving us rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness. 18And with these sayings, scarce refrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them. 19Thither came certain jews from Antioche and Iconium, and obtained the peoples' consent and stoned Paul, and drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead. 20As the disciples stood round about him, he arose up and came into the city. And the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derba. 21After they had preached to that city, and taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium and Antioche, 22and strengthened the disciples souls, exhorting them to continue in the faith, affirming that we must throwe much adversity enter into the kingdom of God. 23And when they had ordained them seniors by election in every congregation, after they had prayed and fasted, they commended them to God on whom they believed. 24And they went over all Pisidia and came into Pamphilia, 25and when they had preached the word of God in Perga, they descended into Attalia, 26and thence departed by ship to Antioche, from whence they were delivered unto the grace of God, to the work which they had fulfilled. 27When they were come and had gathered the congregation together, they rehearsed all that God had done by them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles. 28And there they abode long time with the disciples.
