13. And the priest of Zeus, being in front of their city, brought oxen and wreaths to the gates, and wished to offer with the crowds.
14. And when the emissaries Barnaḇah and Sha’ul heard this, they tore their garments and ran in among the crowd, crying out
15. and saying, “Men, why are you doing this? We also are men with the same nature as you, bringing to you the Good News: to turn from these worthless matters to the living Elohim, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all that is in them,
16. who in past generations allowed all the nations to walk in their own ways,
17. though, indeed, He did not leave Himself without witness, doing good – giving us rain from heaven and fruit-bearing seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.”
18. Even with these words they still had difficulty in stopping the crowds from offering to them.
19. But Yehuḏim arrived from Antioch and Ikonion, and having won over the crowds, they stoned Sha’ul, dragged him out of the city, thinking he was dead.
