Acts 14:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 Paul and Barnabas went to the city of Iconium and entered the Jewish synagogue. (This is what they did in every city.) They spoke to the people there. They spoke so well that many Jews and Greeks believed what they said.
2 But some of the Jews did not believe. They said things that caused the non-Jewish people to be angry and turn against the Lord's followers.
3 So Paul and Barnabas stayed in Iconium a long time, and they spoke bravely for the Lord. They told the people about God's grace. The Lord proved that what they said was true by causing miraculous signs and wonders to be done through them.
4 But some of the people in the city agreed with the Jews who did not believe Paul and Barnabas. Others followed the apostles. So the city was divided.
5 Some of the Jews there, as well as their leaders and some of the non-Jewish people, were determined to hurt Paul and Barnabas. They wanted to stone them to death.
6 When Paul and Barnabas learned about this, they left the city. They went to Lystra and Derbe, cities in Lycaonia, and to the surrounding areas.
7 They told the Good News there too.
8 In Lystra there was a man who had something wrong with his feet. He had been born crippled and had never walked.
9 He was sitting and listening to Paul speak. Paul looked straight at him and saw that the man believed God could heal him.
10 So Paul shouted, "Stand up on your feet!" The man jumped up and began walking around.
11 When the people saw what Paul did, they shouted in their own Lycaonian language. They said, "The gods have come down to us in the form of humans!"
12 The people began to call Barnabas "Zeus, " and they called Paul "Hermes, " because he was the main speaker.
13 The temple of Zeus was near the city. The priest of this temple brought some bulls and flowers to the city gates. The priest and the people wanted to offer a sacrifice to Paul and Barnabas.
14 But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, understood what the people were doing, they tore their own clothes. Then they ran in among the people and shouted to them:
15 "Men, why are you doing this? We are not gods. We are human just like you. We came to tell you the Good News. We are telling you to turn away from these worthless things. Turn to the true living God, the one who made the sky, the earth, the sea, and everything that is in them.
16 "In the past God let all the nations do what they wanted.
17 But God was always there doing the good things that prove he is real. He gives you rain from heaven and good harvests at the right times. He gives you plenty of food and fills your hearts with joy."
18 Even after saying all this, Paul and Barnabas still could hardly stop the people from offering sacrifices to them.
19 Then some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and persuaded the people to turn against Paul. So they threw stones at him and dragged him out of the town. They thought they had killed him.
20 But when the followers of Jesus gathered around him, he got up and went back into the town. The next day he and Barnabas left and went to the city of Derbe.
21 They also told the Good News in the city of Derbe, and many people became followers of Jesus. Then Paul and Barnabas returned to the cities of Lystra, Iconium, and Antioch.
22 In those cities they strengthened the commitment of the followers and encouraged them to continue in the faith. They told them, "We must suffer many things on our way into God's kingdom. "
23 They also chose elders for each church and stopped eating for a period of time to pray for them. These elders were men who had put their trust in the Lord Jesus, so Paul and Barnabas put them in his care.
24 Paul and Barnabas went through the country of Pisidia. Then they came to the country of Pamphylia.
25 They told people the message of God in the city of Perga, and then they went down to the city of Attalia.
26 And from there they sailed away to Antioch in Syria. This is the city where the believers had put them into God's care and sent them to do this work. Now they had finished it.
27 When they arrived, they gathered the church together and told them about all that God had done with them. They said, "God opened a door so that the non-Jewish people could also believe!"
28 And they stayed there a long time with the Lord's followers.
1 And G1161 it came to pass G1096 in G1722 Iconium, G2430 that they G846 went G1525 both together G2596 G846 into G1519 the G3588 synagogue G4864 of the G3588 Jews, G2453 and G2532 so G3779 spake, G2980 that G5620 a great G4183 multitude G4128 both G5037 of the Jews G2453 and G2532 also of the Greeks G1672 believed. G4100
2 But G1161 the G3588 unbelieving G544 Jews G2453 stirred up G1892 the G3588 Gentiles, G1484 and G2532 made their minds evil affected G2559 G5590 against G2596 the G3588 brethren. G80
3 Long G2425 time G5550 G3303 therefore G3767 abode G1304 they speaking boldly G3955 in G1909 the G3588 Lord, G2962 which G3588 gave testimony G3140 unto the G3588 word G3056 of his G848 grace, G5485 and G2532 granted G1325 signs G4592 and G2532 wonders G5059 to be done G1096 by G1223 their G846 hands. G5495
4 But G1161 the G3588 multitude G4128 of the G3588 city G4172 was divided: G4977 and G2532 part G3588 G3303 held G2258 with G4862 the G3588 Jews, G2453 and G1161 part G3588 with G4862 the G3588 apostles. G652
5 And G1161 when G5613 there was G1096 an assault G3730 made both G5037 of the G3588 Gentiles, G1484 and G2532 also of the Jews G2453 with G4862 their G846 rulers, G758 to use them despitefully, G5195 and G2532 to stone G3036 them, G846
6 They were aware of G4894 it, and fled G2703 unto G1519 Lystra G3082 and G2532 Derbe, G1191 cities G4172 of Lycaonia, G3071 and G2532 into the G3588 region that lieth round about: G4066
7 And there G2546 they preached the gospel G2258 G2097 .
8 And G2532 there sat G2521 a certain G5100 man G435 at G1722 Lystra, G3082 impotent G102 in his feet, G4228 being G5225 a cripple G5560 from G1537 his G848 mother's G3384 womb, G2836 who G3739 never G3763 had walked: G4043
9 The same G3778 heard G191 Paul G3972 speak: G2980 who G3739 steadfastly beholding G816 him, G846 and G2532 perceiving G1492 that G3754 he had G2192 faith G4102 to be healed, G4982
10 Said G2036 with a loud G3173 voice, G5456 Stand G450 upright G3717 on G1909 thy G4675 feet. G4228 And he leaped G242 and G2532 walked. G4043
11 And G1161 when the G3588 people G3793 saw G1492 what G3739 Paul G3972 had done, G4160 they lifted up G1869 their G848 voices, G5456 saying G3004 in the speech of Lycaonia, G3072 The G3588 gods G2316 are come down G2597 to G4314 us G2248 in the likeness G3666 of men. G444
12 And G5037 they called G2564 Barnabas G921 G3303 , Jupiter; G2203 and G1161 Paul, G3972 Mercurius, G2060 because G1894 he G846 was G2258 the G3588 chief speaker G2233 G3056 .
13 Then G1161 the G3588 priest G2409 of Jupiter, G2203 which was G5607 before G4253 their G846 city, G4172 brought G5342 oxen G5022 and G2532 garlands G4725 unto G1909 the G3588 gates, G4440 and would G2309 have done sacrifice G2380 with G4862 the G3588 people. G3793
14 Which when G1161 the G3588 apostles, G652 Barnabas G921 and G2532 Paul, G3972 heard G191 of, they rent G1284 their G848 clothes, G2440 and ran in G1530 among G1519 the G3588 people, G3793 crying out, G2896
15 And G2532 saying, G3004 Sirs, G435 why G5101 do G4160 ye these things G5023 ? We G2249 also G2532 are G2070 men G444 of like passions G3663 with you, G5213 and preach G2097 unto you G5209 that ye should turn G1994 from G575 these G5130 vanities G3152 unto G1909 the G3588 living G2198 God, G2316 which G3739 made G4160 heaven, G3772 and G2532 earth, G1093 and G2532 the G3588 sea, G2281 and G2532 all things G3956 that G3588 are therein G1722 G846 :
16 Who G3739 in G1722 times G1074 past G3944 suffered G1439 all G3956 nations G1484 to walk G4198 in their own G848 ways. G3598
17 Nevertheless G2544 he left G863 not G3756 himself G1438 without witness, G267 in that he did good, G15 and gave G1325 us G2254 rain G5205 from heaven, G3771 and G2532 fruitful G2593 seasons, G2540 filling G1705 our G2257 hearts G2588 with food G5160 and G2532 gladness. G2167
18 And G2532 with these G5023 sayings G3004 scarce G3433 restrained G2664 they the G3588 people, G3793 that they had not G3361 done sacrifice G2380 unto them. G846
19 And G1161 there came thither G1904 certain Jews G2453 from G575 Antioch G490 and G2532 Iconium, G2430 who G2532 persuaded G3982 the G3588 people, G3793 and, G2532 having stoned G3034 Paul, G3972 drew G4951 him out G1854 of the G3588 city, G4172 supposing G3543 he G846 had been dead. G2348
20 Howbeit G1161 , as the G3588 disciples G3101 stood round about G2944 him, G846 he rose up, G450 and came G1525 into G1519 the G3588 city: G4172 and G2532 the G3588 next day G1887 he departed G1831 with G4862 Barnabas G921 to G1519 Derbe. G1191
21 And G5037 when they had preached the gospel G2097 to that G1565 city, G4172 and G2532 had taught G3100 many, G2425 they returned again G5290 to G1519 Lystra, G3082 and G2532 to Iconium, G2430 and G2532 Antioch, G490
22 Confirming G1991 the G3588 souls G5590 of the G3588 disciples, G3101 and exhorting G3870 them to continue G1696 in the G3588 faith, G4102 and G2532 that G3754 we G2248 must G1163 through G1223 much G4183 tribulation G2347 enter G1525 into G1519 the G3588 kingdom G932 of God. G2316
23 And G1161 when they had ordained G5500 them G846 elders G4245 in every church G2596 G1577 , and had prayed G4336 with G3326 fasting, G3521 they commended G3908 them G846 to the G3588 Lord, G2962 on G1519 whom G3739 they believed. G4100
24 And G2532 after they had passed throughout G1330 Pisidia, G4099 they came G2064 to G1519 Pamphylia. G3828
25 And G2532 when they had preached G2980 the G3588 word G3056 in G1722 Perga, G4011 they went down G2597 into G1519 Attalia: G825
26 And thence G2547 sailed G636 to G1519 Antioch, G490 from whence G3606 they had been G2258 recommended G3860 to the G3588 grace G5485 of God G2316 for G1519 the G3588 work G2041 which G3739 they fulfilled. G4137
27 And G1161 when they were come, G3854 and G2532 had gathered the church together G4863 G3588, G1577 they rehearsed G312 all that G3745 God G2316 had done G4160 with G3326 them, G846 and G2532 how G3754 he had opened G455 the door G2374 of faith G4102 unto the G3588 Gentiles. G1484
28 And G1161 there G1563 they abode G1304 long G3756 G3641 time G5550 with G4862 the G3588 disciples. G3101
