14. and saying: "Men, why would you do this? We also are mortals, men like yourselves, preaching to you to be converted, from these vain things, to the living God, who made heaven and earth and the sea and all that is in them.
15. In previous generations, he permitted all nations to walk in their own ways.
16. But certainly, he did not leave himself without testimony, doing good from heaven, giving rains and fruitful seasons, filling their hearts with food and gladness."
17. And by saying these things, they were barely able to restrain the crowds from immolating to them.
18. Now certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium arrived there. And having persuaded the crowd, they stoned Paul and dragged him outside of the city, thinking him to be dead.
19. But as the disciples were standing around him, he got up and entered the city. And the next day, he set out with Barnabas for Derbe.
20. And when they had evangelized that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch,
21. strengthening the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them that they should remain always in the faith, and that it is necessary for us to enter into the kingdom of God through many tribulations.
22. And when they had established priests for them in each church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, in whom they believed.
23. And traveling by way of Pisidia, they arrived in Pamphylia.
24. And having spoken the word of the Lord in Perga, they went down into Attalia.
25. And from there, they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work which they had now accomplished.
26. And when they had arrived and had gathered together the church, they related what great things God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.
27. And they remained for no small amount of time with the disciples.
