13Now there were in the church at Antioch prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen a member of the court of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.G1161G2258G2596G1577G5607G1722G490G5100G4396G2532G1320G5037G921G2532G4826G2564G3526G2532G3066G2956G5037G3127G4939G2264G5076G2532G4569 2While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them."G1161G846G3008G2962G2532G3522G40G4151G2036G1211G873G3427G5037G921G2532G4569G1519G2041G3739G4341G846 3Then after fasting and praying they laid their hands on them and sent them off.G5119G3522G2532G4336G2532G2007G5495G2007G846G630 4So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia, and from there they sailed to Cyprus.G3303G3767G3778G1599G5259G40G4151G2718G1519G4581G1564G5037G636G1519G2954 5When they arrived at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John to assist them.G2532G1096G1722G4529G2605G3056G2316G1722G4864G2453G1161G2192G2532G2491G5257 6When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they came upon a certain magician, a Jewish false prophet named Bar-Jesus.G1161G1330G3520G891G3974G2147G5100G3097G5578G2453G3739G3686G919 7He was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence, who summoned Barnabas and Saul and sought to hear the word of God.G3739G2258G4862G446G4588G3972G4908G435G3778G4341G921G2532G4569G1934G191G3056G2316 8But Elymas the magician (for that is the meaning of his name) opposed them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.G1161G1681G3097G1063G3779G846G3686G3177G436G846G2212G1294G446G575G4102 9But Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked intently at himG1161G4569G3588G2532G3972G4130G40G4151G2532G816G1519G846 10and said, "You son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, full of all deceit and villainy, will you not stop making crooked the straight paths of the Lord?G2036G5599G4134G3956G1388G2532G3956G4468G5207G1228G2190G3956G1343G3973G3756G3973G1294G2117G3598G2962 11And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will be blind and unable to see the sun for a time." Immediately mist and darkness fell upon him, and he went about seeking people to lead him by the hand.G2532G3568G2400G5495G2962G1909G4571G2532G2071G5185G3361G991G2246G891G2540G1161G3916G1968G1909G846G887G2532G4655G2532G4013G2212G5497 12Then the proconsul believed, when he saw what had occurred, for he was astonished at the teaching of the Lord.G5119G446G1492G1096G4100G1605G1909G1322G2962 13Now Paul and his companions set sail from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia. And John left them and returned to Jerusalem,G1161G3972G4012G321G575G3974G2064G1519G4011G3828G1161G2491G672G575G846G5290G1519G2414 14but they went on from Perga and came to Antioch in Pisidia. And on the Sabbath day they went into the synagogue and sat down.G1161G846G1330G575G4011G3854G1519G490G4099G2532G1525G1519G4864G4521G2250G2523 15After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent a message to them, saying, "Brothers, if you have any word of encouragement for the people, say it."G1161G3326G320G3551G2532G4396G752G649G4314G846G3004G435G80G1487G2076G1722G5213G3056G3874G4314G2992G3004 16So Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said: "Men of Israel and you who fear God, listen.G1161G3972G450G2532G2678G5495G2036G435G2475G2532G5399G2316G191 17The God of this people Israel chose our fathers and made the people great during their stay in the land of Egypt, and with uplifted arm he led them out of it.G2316G5127G2992G2474G1586G2257G3962G2532G5312G2992G1722G3940G1722G1093G125G2532G3326G5308G1023G1806G846G1537G846 18And for about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness.G2532G5613G5550G5063G5159G846G5159G1722G2048 19And after destroying seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance.G2532G2507G2033G1484G1722G1093G5477G2624G846G1093G846G2624 20All this took about 450 years. And after that he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet.G2532G3326G5023G1325G2923G5613G5071G2532G4004G2094G2193G4545G4396 21Then they asked for a king, and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.G2547G154G935G2532G2316G1325G846G4549G5207G2797G435G1537G5443G958G5062G2094 22And when he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, of whom he testified and said, 'I have found in David the son of Jesse a man after my heart, who will do all my will.'G2532G3179G846G1453G846G1138G1519G935G3739G2532G3140G2036G2147G1138G2421G435G2596G3450G2588G3739G4160G3956G3450G2307 23Of this man's offspring God has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus, as he promised.G575G5127G4690G1453G2316G2596G1860G1453G2474G4990G2424 24Before his coming, John had proclaimed a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.G2491G4296G4253G846G4383G1529G908G3341G3956G2992G2474 25And as John was finishing his course, he said, 'What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. No, but behold, after me one is coming, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.'G1161G5613G2491G4137G1408G3004G5101G5282G3165G1511G1473G1510G3756G235G2400G2064G3326G1691G3739G5266G4228G1510G3756G514G3089 26"Brothers, sons of the family of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, to us has been sent the message of this salvation.G435G80G5207G1085G11G2532G1722G5213G5399G2316G5213G649G3056G5026G4991G649 27For those who live in Jerusalem and their rulers, because they did not recognize him nor understand the utterances of the prophets, which are read every Sabbath, fulfilled them by condemning him.G1063G2730G1722G2419G2532G846G758G50G5126G50G2532G5456G4396G3588G314G2596G3956G4521G4137G2919 28And though they found in him no guilt worthy of death, they asked Pilate to have him executed.G2532G2147G3367G156G2288G154G4091G846G337 29And when they had carried out all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb.G1161G5613G5055G537G1125G4012G846G2507G575G3586G5087G1519G3419 30But God raised him from the dead,G1161G2316G1453G846G1537G3498 31and for many days he appeared to those who had come up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are now his witnesses to the people.G3739G3700G1909G4119G2250G4872G846G575G1056G1519G2419G3748G1526G846G3144G4314G2992 32And we bring you the good news that what God promised to the fathers,G2532G2249G2097G5209G2097G3754G1860G1096G4314G3962 33this he has fulfilled to us their children by raising Jesus, as also it is written in the second Psalm, "'You are my Son, today I have begotten you.'G2316G1603G5026G2254G846G5043G450G2424G450G5613G1125G2532G1125G1722G1208G5568G4771G1488G3450G5207G4594G1473G1080G4571 34And as for the fact that he raised him from the dead, no more to return to corruption, he has spoken in this way, "'I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.'G1161G3754G450G846G450G1537G3498G3371G3195G5290G1519G1312G2046G3779G3754G1325G5213G4103G3741G1138 35Therefore he says also in another psalm, "'You will not let your Holy One see corruption.'G1352G3004G2532G1722G2087G1325G3756G1325G4675G3741G1492G1312 36For David, after he had served the purpose of God in his own generation, fell asleep and was laid with his fathers and saw corruption,G1063G3303G1138G5256G2398G1074G1012G2316G2837G2532G4369G4314G846G3962G2532G1492G1312 37but he whom God raised up did not see corruption.G1161G3739G2316G1453G1492G3756G1312 38Let it be known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you,G2077G1110G5213G3767G435G80G3754G1223G5127G2605G5213G859G266 39and by him everyone who believes is freed from everything from which you could not be freed by the law of Moses.G2532G1722G5129G3956G4100G1344G575G3956G3739G1410G3756G1344G1722G3551G3475 40Beware, therefore, lest what is said in the Prophets should come about:G991G3767G3361G1904G1909G5209G2046G1722G4396 41"'Look, you scoffers, be astounded and perish; for I am doing a work in your days, a work that you will not believe, even if one tells it to you.'"G1492G2707G2532G2296G2532G853G3754G1473G2038G2041G1722G5216G2250G2041G3739G4100G3364G4100G1437G5100G1555G5213 42As they went out, the people begged that these things might be told them the next Sabbath.G1161G2453G1826G1537G4864G1484G3870G5023G4487G2980G846G1519G3342G4521 43And after the meeting of the synagogue broke up, many Jews and devout converts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who, as they spoke with them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.G1161G4864G3089G4183G2453G2532G4576G4339G190G3972G2532G921G3748G4354G846G3982G846G1961G5485G2316 44The next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord.G1161G2064G4521G4863G4975G3956G4172G4863G191G3056G2316 45But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy and began to contradict what was spoken by Paul, reviling him.G1161G2453G1492G3793G4130G2205G2532G483G3004G5259G3972G483G2532G987 46And Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, saying, "It was necessary that the word of God be spoken first to you. Since you thrust it aside and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we are turning to the Gentiles.G1161G3972G2532G921G3955G2036G2258G316G3056G2316G2980G4412G2980G5213G1161G1894G683G846G683G2532G2919G1438G3756G514G166G2222G2400G4762G1519G1484 47For so the Lord has commanded us, saying, "'I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.'"G1063G3779G1781G2962G1781G2254G5087G4571G1519G5457G1484G4571G1511G1519G4991G2193G2078G1093 48And when the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the word of the Lord, and as many as were appointed to eternal life believed.G1161G1484G191G5463G2532G1392G3056G2962G2532G3745G2258G5021G1519G166G2222G4100 49And the word of the Lord was spreading throughout the whole region.G1161G3056G2962G1308G1223G3650G5561 50But the Jews incited the devout women of high standing and the leading men of the city, stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their district.G1161G2453G3951G4576G2532G2158G1135G2532G4413G4172G2532G1892G1375G1909G3972G2532G921G2532G1544G846G575G846G3725 51But they shook off the dust from their feet against them and went to Iconium.G1161G1621G2868G846G4228G1909G846G2064G1519G2430 52And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.G1161G3101G4137G5479G2532G40G4151
