Acts 13:44–52

⁴⁴But the next sabbath day, the whole city almost came together, to hear the word of God.

⁴⁵And the Jews, seeing the multitudes, were filled with envy and contradicted those things which were said by Paul, blaspheming.

⁴⁶Then Paul and Barnabas said boldly: To you it behoved us first to speak the word of God: but because you reject it and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold we turn to the Gentiles.

⁴⁷For so the Lord hath commanded us: I have set thee to be the light of the Gentiles: that thou mayest be for salvation unto the utmost part of the earth.

⁴⁸And the Gentiles hearing it were glad and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to life everlasting believed.

⁴⁹And the word of the Lord was published throughout the whole country.

⁵⁰But the Jews stirred up religious and honourable women and the chief men of the city: and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas: and cast them out of their coasts.

⁵¹But they, shaking off the dust of their feet against them, came to Iconium.

⁵²And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Ghost.
