Acts 14:1-11 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

1. AND it came to pass in Iconium, that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke that a very great multitude both of the Jews and of the Greeks did believe.

2. But the unbelieving Jews stirred up and incensed the minds of the Gentiles against the brethren.

3. A long time therefore they abode there, dealing confidently in the Lord, who gave testimony to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

4. And the multitude of the city was divided; and some of them indeed held with the Jews, but some with the apostles.

5. And when there was an assault made by the Gentiles and the Jews with their rulers, to use them contumeliously, and to stone them:

6. They understanding it, fled to Lystra, and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the whole country round about, and were there preaching the gospel.

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

8. This same heard Paul speaking. Who looking upon him, and seeing that he had faith to be healed,

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

10. 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;

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