Acts 14:8–18

And there sat a certain man at oLystra, impotent in his feet, rbeing a cripple from his mother’s womb, who never had walked: The same heard Paul speak: who sstedfastly beholding him, and tperceiving that he had faith uto be healed, 10 Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he xleaped and walked. 11 And when the people saw what Paul had done, they ylifted up their voices, saying in the speech of qLycaonia, zThe gods are come down to us in the likeness of men. 12 And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker. 13 Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto athe gates, and bwould have done sacrifice with the people. 14 Which when cthe apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, dthey rent their clothes, and eran in among the people, crying out, 15 And saying, Sirs, fwhy do ye these things? We also are men gof like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should hturn from these ivanities unto jthe living God, kwhich made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein: 16 Who in times past lsuffered all nations mto walk in their own ways. 17 nNevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and ogave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with pfood and qgladness. 18 And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.
