1 And it came to pass in Iconium that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake that a great multitude of both Jews and Greeks believed.
2 But the Jews who did not believe stirred up the minds of {those of} the nations and made {them} evil-affected against the brethren.
3 They stayed therefore a good while, speaking boldly, {confiding} in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace, giving signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
4 And the multitude of the city was divided, and some were with the Jews and some with the apostles.
5 And when an assault was making, both of {those of} the nations and {the} Jews with their rulers, to use {them} ill and stone them,
6 they, being aware of it, fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the surrounding country,
7 and there they were announcing the glad tidings.
8 And a certain man in Lystra, impotent in his feet, sat, {being} lame from his mother's womb, who had never walked.
9 This {man} heard Paul speaking, who, fixing his eyes on him, and seeing that he had faith to be healed,
10 said with a loud voice, Rise up straight upon thy feet: and he sprang up and walked.
11 But the crowds, who saw what Paul had done, lifted up their voices in Lycaonian, saying, The gods, having made themselves like men, are come down to us.
12 And they called Barnabas Jupiter, and Paul Mercury, because he took the lead in speaking.
13 And the priest of Jupiter who was before the city, having brought bulls and garlands to the gates, would have done sacrifice along with the crowds.
14 But the apostles Barnabas and Paul, having heard {it}, rent their garments, and rushed out to the crowd, crying
15 and saying, Men, why do ye these things? *We* also are men of like passions with you, preaching to you to turn from these vanities to the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things in them;
16 who in the past generations suffered all the nations to go in their own ways,
17 though indeed he did not leave himself without witness, doing good, and giving to you from heaven rain and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.
18 And saying these things, they with difficulty kept the crowds from sacrificing to them.
19 But there came Jews from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds and stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing him to have died.
20 But while the disciples encircled him, he rose up and entered into the city. And on the morrow he went away with Barnabas to Derbe.
21 And having announced the glad tidings to that city, and having made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, and Iconium, and Antioch,
22 establishing the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to abide in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.
23 And having chosen them elders in each assembly, having prayed with fastings, they committed them to the Lord, on whom they had believed.
24 And having passed through Pisidia they came to Pamphylia,
25 and having spoken the word in Perga, they came down to Attalia;
26 and thence they sailed away to Antioch, whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.
27 And having arrived, and having brought together the assembly, they related to them all that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the nations.
28 And they stayed no little time with the disciples.
1 Aga Ikoonionis sündis, et nad üheskoos läksid juutide kogudusekotta ja kõnelesid nõnda, et niihästi suur hulk juute kui kreeklasi sai usklikuks.
2 Aga uskmatud juudid kihutasid üles ja ärritasid paganate meeled vihale vendade vastu.
3 Siis nad viibisid seal kauemat aega, kuulutades julgesti Issandat, Kes andis tunnistuse Oma armusõnale ja laskis sündida tunnustähti ja imetegusid nende käte läbi.
4 Aga linna rahvas jagunes kaheks: ühed olid juutide, teised Apostlite poolt.
5 Kui siis paganad ja juudid oma ülematega ühel nõul tahtsid tulla nende kallale, et neid teotada ja kividega visata,
6 said nad seda teada ja põgenesid Lükaoonia linnadesse, Lüstrasse ja Derbesse ja nende ümbrusesse
7 ja kuulutasid seal Evangeeliumi.
8 Ja Lüstras istus mees, võimetu seisma, oma emaihust jalutu, kes ei olnud elades kõndinud.
9 See kuulis Pauluse kõnet. Ja kui Paulus teda silmas ning nägi, et tal oli usku terveks saada,
10 ütles ta suure häälega: „Tõuse püsti oma jalgele!" Ja ta kargas üles ja kõndis.
11 Aga kui rahvas nägi, mis Paulus oli teinud, siis nad tõstsid oma häält ning ütlesid lükaoonia keeli: „Jumalad on inimeste sarnastena alla tulnud meie juurde!"
12 Ja nad nimetasid Barnabast Zeusiks ja Paulust Hermeseks, sest tema oli see, kes kõneles.
13 Ja Zeusi preester linna aguli templist tõi härgi ja lillepärgi värava ette ja tahtis ohverdada ühes rahvaga.
14 Aga kui Apostlid Barnabas ja Paulus seda kuulsid, rebestasid nad oma riided, kargasid hüüdes rahva sekka
15 ning ütlesid: „Mehed, miks te seda teete? Meie oleme niisamasugused nõdrad inimesed nagu teiegi ja kuulutame teile Evangeeliumi, et te tühjest asjust pöörduksite elava Jumala poole, Kes on teinud taeva ja maa ja mere ning kõik, mis nende sees on,
16 Kes endisel põlvel on lasknud kõik rahvad käia Omi teid,
17 ja siiski ei ole jätnud andmata enesest tunnistust, vaid on meile head teinud, ja on taevast meile andnud vihma ja head viljalist aega ja rooga ning on täitnud meie südame rõõmuga!"
18 Nii kõneldes nad vaevalt vaigistasid rahva, et see neile ei ohverdaks.
19 Aga Antiookiast ja Ikoonionist tuli sinna juute ja need meelitasid hulga eneste poole ja viskasid Paulust kividega ning vedasid ta linnast välja, arvates, et ta on surnud.
20 Aga kui jüngrid olid tema ümber tulnud, tõusis ta üles ja läks linna. Ja järgmisel päeval ta läks ühes Barnabasega Derbesse.
21 Ja kui nad selles linnas olid kuulutanud Evangeeliumi ja saanud mõned jüngreiks, läksid nad tagasi Lüstrasse, Ikoonioni ja Antiookiasse ning
22 kinnitasid jüngrite hingi, manitsedes neid jääma ususse ning seletades, et meil mitme viletsuse kaudu tuleb minna Jumala Riiki.
23 Ja kui nad neile igas koguduses käte pealepanemisega olid seadnud vanemad, jätsid nad paastudes ja palvetades nemad Issanda hooleks, Kellesse need nüüd uskusid.
24 Siis nad käisid läbi Pisiidiamaa ja saabusid Pamfüüliasse.
25 Ja kui nad Perges olid sõna kuulutanud, läksid nad Ataaliasse.
26 Sealt nad purjetasid Antiookiasse, kust nad olid väljunud Jumala armu hooleks antuina sellele tööle, mille nad olid lõpetanud.
27 Ja kui nad olid saabunud, kogusid nad koguduse kokku ja kuulutasid, mis suuri asju Jumal oli teinud, olles nendega, ja et ta oli avanud paganaile usu ukse.
28 Ja nad viibisid seal kauemat aega jüngrite juures.
