6 they became aware of it, and fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the neighboring country;

They understanding it, fled to Lystra, and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the whole country round about,

7 and they were publishing the glad tidings there.

8 And at Lystra there sat a certain man who had not the use of his feet, a cripple from his birth, who never had walked.

And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, a cripple from his mother’s womb, who never had walked.

14 But the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, when they heard of it, rent their garments, and rushed forth to the multitude, crying out

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

15 and saying, Men, why do ye these things? We also are men of like nature with you, bringing to you glad tidings, that ye may turn from these vanities to the living God, who made heaven and earth and sea, and all things that are therein;

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:

16 who in the ages past suffered all the nations to walk in their own ways;

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

17 although he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, giving you rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.

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

18 And with these words, they hardly restrained the multitudes from sacrificing to them.

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

19 But there came thither Jews from Antioch and Iconium; who, having persuaded the multitudes, and stoned Paul, dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.

But as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up and entered into the city, and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

21 And when they had published the glad tidings to that city, and had made many disciples, they went back to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch;

And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch:

22 confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and saying that it is through many afflictions that we mast enter into the kingdom of God.

Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith: and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God.

24 And having gone through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia;

And passing through Pisidia, they came into Pamphylia.

25 and when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia,

26 and thence set sail for Antioch, whence they had been commended to the grace of God, for the work which they had accomplished.

And thence they sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been delivered to the grace of God, unto the work which they accomplished.

27 And when they had arrived and had gathered the church together, they related what great things God had wrought with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the gentiles.
