| 13:2 | and in their ministering to the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, `Separate ye to me both Barnabas and Saul to the work to which I have called them,' |

| 13:6 | and having gone through the island unto Paphos, they found a certain magian, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name `is' Bar-Jesus; |
| 13:7 | who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, an intelligent man; this one having called for Barnabas and Saul, did desire to hear the word of God, |

| 13:10 | said, `O full of all guile, and all profligacy, son of a devil, enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease perverting the right ways of the Lord? |
| 13:11 | and now, lo, a hand of the Lord `is' upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season;' and presently there fell upon him a mist and darkness, and he, going about, was seeking some to lead `him' by the hand; |

| 13:13 | And those about Paul having set sail from Paphos, came to Perga of Pamphylia, and John having departed from them, did turn back to Jerusalem, |
| 13:14 | and they having gone through from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia, and having gone into the synagogue on the sabbath-day, they sat down, |
| 13:15 | and after the reading of the law and of the prophets, the chief men of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, `Men, brethren, if there be a word in you of exhortation unto the people -- say on.' |

| 13:18 | and about a period of forty years He did suffer their manners in the wilderness, |
| 13:19 | and having destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, He did divide by lot to them their land. |
| 13:20 | `And after these things, about four hundred and fifty years, He gave judges -- till Samuel the prophet; |
| 13:21 | and thereafter they asked for a king, and God did give to them Saul, son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years; |

| 13:27 | for those dwelling in Jerusalem, and their chiefs, this one not having known, also the voices of the prophets, which every sabbath are being read -- having judged `him' -- did fulfill, |
| 13:28 | and no cause of death having found, they did ask of Pilate that he should be slain, |
| 13:29 | and when they did complete all the things written about him, having taken `him' down from the tree, they laid him in a tomb; |
| 13:30 | and God did raise him out of the dead, |
| 13:31 | and he was seen for many days of those who did come up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people. |
| 13:32 | `And we to you do proclaim good news -- that the promise made unto the fathers, |
| 13:33 | God hath in full completed this to us their children, having raised up Jesus, as also in the second Psalm it hath been written, My Son thou art -- I to-day have begotten thee. |
| 13:34 | `And that He did raise him up out of the dead, no more to return to corruption, he hath said thus -- I will give to you the faithful kindnesses of David; |
| 13:35 | wherefore also in another `place' he saith, Thou shalt not give Thy kind One to see corruption, |
| 13:36 | for David, indeed, his own generation having served by the will of God, did fall asleep, and was added unto his fathers, and saw corruption, |
| 13:37 | but he whom God did raise up, did not see corruption. |
| 13:38 | `Let it therefore be known to you, men, brethren, that through this one to you is the forgiveness of sins declared, |
| 13:39 | and from all things from which ye were not able in the law of Moses to be declared righteous, in this one every one who is believing is declared righteous; |
| 13:40 | see, therefore, it may not come upon you that hath been spoken in the prophets: |
| 13:41 | See, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish, because a work I -- I do work in your days, a work in which ye may not believe, though any one may declare `it' to you.' |
| 13:42 | And having gone forth out of the synagogue of the Jews, the nations were calling upon `them' that on the next sabbath these sayings may be spoken to them, |
| 13:43 | and the synagogue having been dismissed, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes did follow Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking to them, were persuading them to remain in the grace of God. |
| 13:44 | And on the coming sabbath, almost all the city was gathered together to hear the word of God, |
| 13:45 | and the Jews having seen the multitudes, were filled with zeal, and did contradict the things spoken by Paul -- contradicting and speaking evil. |
| 13:46 | And speaking boldly, Paul and Barnabas said, `To you it was necessary that first the word of God be spoken, and seeing ye do thrust it away, and do not judge yourselves worthy of the life age-during, lo, we do turn to the nations; |
| 13:47 | for so hath the Lord commanded us: I have set thee for a light of nations -- for thy being for salvation unto the end of the earth.' |
| 13:48 | And the nations hearing were glad, and were glorifying the word of the Lord, and did believe -- as many as were appointed to life age-during; |

| 13:27 | For the inhabiters of Ierusalem, and their rulers, for somoch as they knewe him not, ner yet the voyces of the prophetes (which are red euery Sabbath) haue fulfylled them in condemnynge him. |
| 13:28 | And though they founde no cause of death in him, yet desyred they Pilate to kyll him. |

| 13:41 | Beholde ye despysers, and wonder at it, and perishe, for I do a worke in youre tyme, which ye shal not beleue, yf eny man tell it you. |
| 13:42 | Whan the Iewes were gone out of the synagoge, the Heythen besoughte them, yt they wolde speake ye worde vnto them betwene the Sabbath dayes. |

| 13:44 | On ye Sabbath folowinge, came almost the whole cite together, to heare the worde of God. |
| 13:45 | But whan the Iewes sawe the people, they were full of indignacion, and spake agaynst that which was spoken of Paul, speakinge agaynst it, & blasphemynge. |
| 13:46 | But Paul and Barnabas waxed bolde, and sayde: It behoued first the worde of God to be spoken vnto you: but now that ye thrust it fro you, and counte youre selues vnworthy of euerlastinge life, lo, we turne to the Gentyles. |
| 13:47 | For so hath the LORDE comaunded vs: I haue set the to be a lighte vnto ye Gentyles, yt thou be ye Saluacion vnto the ende of the earth. |
| 13:48 | Whan the Gentyles herde that, they were glad, and praysed the worde of the LORDE, and beleued, eue as many as were ordeyned to euerlastinge life. |
