Acts 14

1Now in Iconium they went together to the Synagogue of the Jews and gave such teaching that a great number of Jews and Greeks had faith.

1And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.

1And it came to pass in Iconium that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake that a great multitude both of Jews and of Greeks believed.

2But those Jews who had not the faith, made the minds of the Gentiles bitter against the brothers.

2But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.

2But the Jews that were disobedient stirred up the souls of the Gentiles, and made them evil affected against the brethren.

3So they kept there for a long time, taking heart in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace by causing signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

3Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

3Long time therefore they tarried there speaking boldly in the Lord, who bare witness unto the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

4But there was a division among the people of the town; some were on the side of the Jews and some on the side of the Apostles.

4But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

4But the multitude of the city was divided; and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

5And when a violent attempt was made by the Gentiles and the Jews, with their rulers, to make an attack on them and have them stoned,

5And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them,

5And when there was made an onset both of the Gentiles and of the Jews with their rulers, to treat them shamefully and to stone them,

6Having got news of it, they went in flight to the towns of Lycaonia, Lystra, and Derbe, and the country round about:

6They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about:

6they became aware of it, and fled unto the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the region round about:

7And went on preaching the good news there.

7And there they preached the gospel.

7and there they preached the gospel.

8And at Lystra there was a certain man, who from birth had been without the use of his feet, never having had the power of walking.

8And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother’s womb, who never had walked:

8And at Lystra there sat a certain man, impotent in his feet, a cripple from his mother’s womb, who never had walked.

9This man was giving ear to the preaching of Paul, who, looking at him, and seeing that he had faith to be made well,

9The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,

9The same heard Paul speaking: who, fastening his eyes upon him, and seeing that he had faith to be made whole,

10Said in a loud voice, Get up on your feet. And, jumping up, he went walking about.

10Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.

10said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped up and walked.

11And when the people saw what Paul had done, they said in a loud voice, in the language of Lycaonia, The gods have come down to us in the form of men.

11And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.

11And when the multitude saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.

12And they gave the name of Jupiter to Barnabas, and to Paul that of Mercury, because he was the chief talker.

12And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.

12And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercury, because he was the chief speaker.

13And the priest of the image of Jupiter, which was before the town, took oxen and flowers to the doors of the town, and was about to make an offering with the people.

13Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.

13And the priest of Jupiter whose temple was before the city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the multitudes.

14But when this came to the ears of the Apostles, Paul and Barnabas, they went running out among the people, parting their clothing, and crying out,

14Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,

14But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of it, they rent their garments, and sprang forth among the multitude, crying out

15Good people, why are you doing these things? We are men with the same feelings as you, and we give you the good news so that you may be turned away from these foolish things to the living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all things in them:

15And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with 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 things that are therein:

15and saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and bring you good tidings, that ye should turn from these vain things unto a living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all that in them is:

16Who in the past let all nations go in the ways which seemed good to them.

16Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.

16who in the generations gone by suffered all the nations to walk in their own ways.

17But he was not without witness, because he did good, and gave you rain from heaven and times of fruit, making your hearts full of food and joy.

17Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.

17And yet he left not himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you from heaven rains and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.

18And even with these words, it was hard for them to keep the people from making an offering to them.

18And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.

18And with these sayings scarce restrained they the multitudes from doing sacrifice unto them.

19But some Jews came to that place from Antioch and Iconium, and got control over the people; and after stoning Paul, they had him pulled out of the town, taking him for dead.

19And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and, having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead.

19But there came Jews thither from Antioch and Iconium: and having persuaded the multitudes, they stoned Paul, and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.

20But when the disciples came round him, he got up and went into the town: and the day after he went away with Barnabas to Derbe.

20Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

20But as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and entered into the city: and on the morrow he went forth with Barnabas to Derbe.

21And having made a number of disciples through the preaching of the good news in that town, they went back to Lystra and Iconium and Antioch,

21And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,

21And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch,

22Making strong the souls of the disciples, saying to them that they were to keep the faith, and that we have to go through troubles of all sorts to come into the kingdom of God.

22Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.

22confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.

23And when they had made selection of some to be rulers in every church, and had given themselves to prayer and kept themselves from food, they put them into the care of the Lord in whom they had faith.

23And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.

25And, after preaching the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia;

25And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:

25And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia;

26And from there they went by ship to Antioch, where they had been handed over to the grace of God for the work which they had not done.

26And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.

26and thence they sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.

27And when they came there, and had got the church together, they gave them an account of all the things which God had done through them, and how he had made open a door of faith to the Gentiles.

27And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.

28And they tarried no little time with the disciples.
