⁴⁸The people who were not Jews were pleased with what they heard and praised the Lord’s word. Everyone who had been prepared for everlasting life believed. ⁴⁹The word of the Lord spread throughout the whole region. ⁵⁰But Jews stirred up devout women of high social standing and the officials of the city. These people started to persecute Paul and Barnabas and threw them out of their territory.

⁵¹In protest against these people, Paul and Barnabas shook the dust off their feet and went to the city of Iconium. ⁵²Meanwhile, the disciples ⸤in Antioch⸥ continued to be full of joy and the Holy Spirit.
