1 Now in the church that was at Antioch there were some prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

2 As they served the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, "Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have called them."

5 When they were at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the Jewish synagogues. They had also John as their attendant.

8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn aside the proconsul from the faith.

11 Now, look, the hand of the Lord is on you, and you will be blind, unable to see the sun for a time." Immediately a mist and darkness fell on him. He went around seeking someone to lead him by the hand.

14 But they, passing on from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia. They went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and sat down.

39 and by him everyone who believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the Law of Moses.

40 So beware, lest what is said in the Prophets should come about:

41 'Look, you scoffers, and be amazed, and perish; for I am working a work in your days, a work which you will not believe, if one tells it to you.'"

42 So when they went out they urged them to speak about these things on the next Sabbath.

43 Now when the synagogue broke up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.
ⲙ̅ⲅ̅ⲉⲧⲁⲥⲃⲱⲗ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϯⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ ⲁⲩⲙⲟϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲃⲁⲣⲛⲁⲃⲁⲥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲙⲏϣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲒⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏ⳿ⲉⲧⲉⲣⲥⲉⲃⲉⲥⲑⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓϣⲉⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲑⲱⲧ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲉⲑⲣⲟⲩϣⲱⲡⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ.
44 The next Sabbath almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of the Lord.

45 But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and reviled him.
ⲙ̅ⲉ̅⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲒⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲙⲏϣ ⲁⲩⲙⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲭⲟϩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩϯ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲉⲛ ⲛⲏ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲣⲉ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲩϫⲉⲟⲩ⳿ⲁ.
46 Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, and said, "It was necessary that God's word should be spoken to you first. Since indeed you thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, look, we turn to the non-Jewish people. (aiōnios g166)
ⲙ̅ⲋ̅⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲟⲩⲟⲛϩⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲃⲁⲣⲛⲁⲃⲁⲥ ⲡⲉϫⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲛⲁⲅⲕⲉⲟⲛ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲫϯ ⲉⲡⲓⲇⲏⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲥⲁⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲱⲡ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲉⲣ⳿ⲡⲉⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲱⲛϧ ⳿ⲛ⳿⳿ⲉⲛⲉϩ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁⲕⲟⲧⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ. (aiōnios g166)
47 For so has the Lord commanded us, saying, 'I have set you as a light to the nations, that you may bring salvation to the farthest part of the earth.'"
ⲙ̅ⲍ̅ⲫⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲙⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϩⲟⲛϩⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲧⲟⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲡ⳪ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲭⲁⲕ ⲉⲩⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲉⲑⲣⲉⲕϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲉⲩⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ϣⲁ ⲁⲩⲣⲏϫϥ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ.
48 As the non-Jewish people heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord. As many as were appointed to everlasting life believed. (aiōnios g166)
ⲙ̅ⲏ̅⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲣⲁϣⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲁⲩϯ⳿ⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲏⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲑⲏϣ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲱⲛϧ ⳿ⲛ⳿⳿ⲉⲛⲉϩ. (aiōnios g166)
49 The Lord's word was spread abroad throughout all the region.

50 But the Jews stirred up the devout women of prominence and the chief men of the city, and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and threw them out of their borders.

51 But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.

52 The disciples were filled with joy with the Holy Spirit.
