And there they continued to tell the Good News.

Acts 14:8

At Lystra a certain man sat, impotent in his feet, a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked.

Acts 14:9

He was listening to Paul speaking, who, fastening eyes on him, and seeing that he had faith to be made whole,

Said with a loud voice: Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped up, and walked.

After this man had listened to one of Paul's sermons, the Apostle, looking steadily at him and perceiving that he had faith to be cured,

Acts 14:10

said with a loud voice, "Stand upright on your feet!" He leaped up and walked.

And when the multitudes had seen what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice in the Lycaonian tongue, saying: The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men;

said in a loud voice, "Stand upright upon your feet!"

Acts 14:11

When the multitude saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voice, saying in the language of Lycaonia, "The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!"

And they called Barnabas, Jupiter: but Paul, Mercury; because he was chief speaker.

Acts 14:12

They called Barnabas "Jupiter," and Paul "Mercury," because he was the chief speaker.

They called Barnabas `Zeus,' and Paul, as being the principal speaker, `Hermes.'

Acts 14:13

The priest of Jupiter, whose temple was in front of their city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and would have made a sacrifice with the multitudes.

Which, when the apostles Barnabas and Paul had heard, rending their clothes, they leaped out among the people, crying,

And the priest of Zeus the temple of Zeus being at the entrance to the city brought bullocks and garlands to the gates, and in company with the crowd was intending to offer sacrifices to them.

Acts 14:14

But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of it, they tore their clothes, and sprang into the multitude, crying out,

And saying: Ye men, why do ye these things? We also are mortals, men like unto you, preaching to you to be converted from these vain things, to the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things that are in them:

But the Apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of it; and tearing their clothes they rushed out into the middle of the crowd, exclaiming, "Sirs, why are you doing all this?

Acts 14:15

"Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to the living God, who made the sky and the earth and the sea, and all that is in them;

Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.

We also are but men, with natures kindred to your own; and we bring you the Good News that you are to turn from these unreal things, to worship the ever-living God, the Creator of earth and sky and sea and of everything that is in them.

Acts 14:16

who in the generations gone by allowed all the nations to walk in their own ways.

Nevertheless he left not himself without testimony, doing good from heaven, giving rains and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.

In times gone by He allowed all the nations to go their own ways;

Acts 14:17

Yet he didn't leave himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you rains from the sky and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness."

And speaking these things, they scarce restrained the people from sacrificing to them.

and yet by His beneficence He has not left His existence unattested His beneficence, I mean, in sending you rain from Heaven and fruitful seasons, satisfying your hearts with food and joyfulness."

Acts 14:18

Even saying these things, they hardly stopped the multitudes from making a sacrifice to them.

Now there came thither certain Jews from Antioch, and Iconium: and persuading the multitude, and stoning Paul, drew him out of the city, thinking him to be dead.

Even with words like these they had difficulty in preventing the thronging crowd from offering sacrifices to them.

Acts 14:19
