Then Saul, which also is called Paul, being full of the holy ghost, set his eyes on him, and said,

When Paul, and they that were with him, had departed by ship from Paphos, they came to Perga a city of Pamphylia. And there departed John from them, and returned to Jerusalem.

Then Paul stood up and beckoned with the hand and said, "Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.

When the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and virtuous converts followed Paul and Barnabas, which spake to them and exhorted them to continue in the grace of God.

When the Jews saw the people, they were full of indignation and spake against those things which were spoken of Paul; speaking against it, and railing on it.

Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, "It was meet that the word of God should first have been preached to you. But seeing ye put it from you, and think yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the gentiles.

But the Jews moved the worshipful and honorable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas: and expelled them out of their coasts.

The same heard Paul preach: which beheld him, and perceived that he had faith to be whole,

And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lift up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, "Gods are come down to us in the likeness of men."

And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercury, because he was the preacher.

But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul heard that, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying

Thither came certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, and obtained the peoples' consent, and stoned Paul: and drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead.

And when there was risen dissension and disputing not a little unto Paul and Barnabas, against them: they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should ascend to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.

Then all the multitude was peaced and gave audience to Barnabas and Paul which told what signs and wonders God had showed among the gentiles by them.

Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole congregation, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They sent Judas, called also Barsabbas, and Silas, which were chief men among the brethren:

It seemed therefore to us a good thing, when we were come together with one accord, to send chosen men unto you, with our beloved Barnabas and Paul:

Paul and Barnabas continued in Antioch teaching, and preaching the word of the Lord with other many.

But after a certain space, Paul said unto Barnabas, "Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have showed the word of the Lord, and see how they do."

But Paul thought it not meet to take him unto their company which departed from them at Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.

And Paul chose Silas and departed, delivered of the brethren unto the grace of God.

The same, Paul would that he should go forth with him, and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters, for they knew all that his father was a Greek.

and a vision appeared to Paul in the night. There stood a man of Macedonia and prayed him saying, "Come into Macedonia and help us."

And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, gave us audience: whose heart the Lord opened that she attended unto the things which Paul spake.

The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, "These men are the servants of the most high God, which show unto us the way of salvation."

And this did she many days. But Paul, not content, turned about and said to the spirit, "I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ that thou come out of her." And he came out the same hour.

And when her master and mistress saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers,

At midnight, Paul and Silas prayed, and lauded God. And the prisoners heard them.

But Paul cried with a loud voice saying, "Do thyself no harm, for we are all here."

Then he called for a light and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,

The keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, "The officers have sent word to loose you. Now therefore get you hence and go in peace."

Then said Paul unto them, "They have beaten us, openly un-condemned, for all that we are Romans, and have cast us into prison: and now would they send us away privily? Nay not so, but let them come themselves and fetch us out."

And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them: and three Sabbath days declared out of the scripture unto them,

And some of them believed and came and companied with Paul and Silas. Also of the honorable Greeks, a great multitude; and of the chief women, not a few.

And the brethren immediately sent away Paul, and Silas by night unto Berea. Which, when they were come thither, they entered into the Synagogue of the Jews.

When the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was preached of Paul at Berea, they came there and moved the people:

and then, by and by, the brethren sent away Paul to go as it were to the sea. But Silas and Timothy abode there still.

And they that guided Paul brought him unto Athens, and received a commandment unto Silas and Timothy for to come to him at once. And came their way.

While Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was moved in him to see the city given to worshipping of images.

Paul stood in the midst of Mars Street and said, "Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious.

So Paul departed from among them.

Howbeit, certain men clave unto Paul and believed, among the which was Dionysius a senator, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

After that, Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth,

When Silas and Timothy were come from Macedonia, Paul was constrained by the spirit, to testify to the Jews that Jesus was very Christ.

Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, "Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:

When Gallio was ruler of the country of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,

And as Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, "If it were a matter of wrong, or an evil deed to ye, reason would that I should hear you:

Paul, after this, tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, Priscilla and Aquila accompanying him. And he shore his head in Cenchreae. For he had a vow.

It fortuned, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul passed through the upper coasts, and came to Ephesus, and found certain disciples

Then said Paul, "John verily baptised with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people that they should believe on him, which should come after him. That is on Christ Jesus."

And Paul laid his hands upon them: and the holy ghost came on them, and they spake with tongues and prophesied;

And God wrought not small miracles by the hands of Paul.

Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus saying, "We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth."

and the evil spirit answered and said, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know: but who are ye?"

After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, to pass over Macedonia and Achaia, and to go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there I must also see Rome."

Moreover, ye see and hear that not alone at Ephesus: but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they be not gods which are made with hands:

And all the city was on a roar, and they rushed into the common hall with one assent, and caught Gaius, and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions.

When Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.

After the rage was ceased, Paul called the disciples unto him, and took his leave of them, and departed for to go into Macedonia.

And on the morrow after the Sabbath day the disciples came together for to break bread, and Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued the preaching unto midnight.

and there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus, fallen into a deep sleep. And as Paul declared, he was the more overcome with sleep, and fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead.

Paul went down and fell on him, and embraced him, and said, "Make nothing ado. For his life is in him."

And we went afore to ship, and loosed unto Assos, there to receive Paul. For so had he appointed, and would himself go a foot.

For Paul had determined to leave Ephesus as they sailed, because he would not spend the time in Asia. For he hasted to be, if he could possibly, at Jerusalem at the day of Pentecost.

And they wept all abundantly, and fell on Paul's neck, and kissed him:

And when we had found brethren, we tarried there seven days. And they told Paul through the spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.

The next day, we that were of Paul's company, departed and came unto Caesarea. And we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was one of the seven deacons, and abode with him.

When he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his hands and feet and said, "Thus saith the holy ghost, 'So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the gentiles.'"

Then Paul answered, and said, "What do ye weeping, and breaking mine heart? I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus."

And on the morrow, Paul went in with us unto James. And all the elders came together.

Then the next day, Paul took the men and purified himself with them, and entered into the temple, declaring that he observed the days of the purification, until that an offering should be offered for every one of them.

For they saw one Trophimus, an Ephesian, with him in the city: Him they supposed Paul had brought into the temple.

And all the city was moved, and the people swarmed together. And they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple, and forthwith the doors were shut to.

Which immediately took soldiers and under-captains, and ran down unto them. When they saw the upper-captain and the soldiers; They left smiting of Paul.

And as Paul should have been carried into the castle; He said unto the high captain, "May I speak unto thee?" Which said, "Canst thou speak Greek?

But Paul said, "I am a man which am a Jew of Tarsus a city in Cilicia, a citizen of no vile city, I beseech thee suffer me to speak unto the people."

When he had given him licence, Paul stood on the steps, and beckoned with the hand unto the people, and there was made a great silence. And he spake unto them in the Hebrew tongue, saying:

And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said unto the centurion that stood by, "Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman and uncondemned?"

And the high captain answered, "With a great sum obtained I this freedom." And Paul said, "I was freeborn."

On the morrow he loosed him from his bonds, desiring to know the certainty for what cause he was accused of the Jews, and commanded the high priests and all the council to come together, and brought Paul, and set him before them.

Paul beheld the council and said, "Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day."

Then said Paul to him, "God shall smite thee, thou painted wall. Sittest thou and judgest me after the law: and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law?"

Then said Paul, "I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest. For it is written, 'Thou shalt not curse the ruler of thy people.'"

When Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, "Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee. Of hope, and of resurrection from death I am judged."

And when there arose great debate, the captain fearing lest Paul should have been plucked asunder of them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and to take him from among them, and to bring him into the castle.

The night following God stood by him, and said, "Be of good cheer Paul: For as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness at Rome."

When day was come, certain of the Jews gathered themselves together, and made a vow saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul.

And they came to the chief priest and elders, and said, "We have bound ourselves with a vow, that we will eat nothing until we have slain Paul.

When Paul's sister's son heard of their laying await, he went and entered into the castle, and told Paul.

And Paul called one of the under captains unto him, and said, "Bring this young man unto the high captain: for he hath a certain thing to show him."

And he took him, and led him to the high captain, and said, "Paul the prisoner called me unto him and prayed me to bring this young man unto thee, which hath a certain matter to show thee."

And he said, "The Jews are determined to desire thee that thou wouldest bring forth Paul tomorrow into the council, as though they would enquire somewhat of him more perfectly.

And deliver them beasts that they may put Paul on, and bring him safe unto Felix the high deputy;

Then the soldiers as it was commanded them, took Paul and brought him by night to Antipatris.

Which when they came to Caesarea, they delivered the epistle to the deputy, and presented Paul before him.

After five days, Ananias the high priest descended, with elders and with a certain orator named Tertullus, and informed the ruler of Paul.

When Paul was called forth; Tertullus began to accuse him saying, "Seeing that we live in great quietness by the means of thee and that many good things are done unto this nation through thy providence:

Then Paul, after that the ruler himself had beckoned unto him that he should speak, answered, "I shall with a more quiet mind answer for myself, forasmuch as I understand that thou hast been of many years a judge unto this people,

And he commanded an under-captain to keep Paul, and that he should have rest, and that he should forbid none of his acquaintance to minister unto him, or to come unto him.

And after a certain days came Felix, and his wife Drusilla which was a Jewess, and called forth Paul, and heard him of the faith which is toward Christ.

He hoped also that money should have been given him of Paul that he might loose him, wherefore he called him the oftener, and communed with him.
