But Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the multitudes, and having stoned Paul, they dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.

There being therefore no little dissension and disputation of Paul and Barnabas with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas and some others of them should go up to the apostles and elders at Jerusalem, concerning this question.

And all the multitude was silent, and heard Barnabas and Paul relate what miracles and prodigies God performed among the gentiles through them.

Then it seemed good to the apostles and elders, with all the assembly [the church], to send delegates from themselves to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas, Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, leading men among the brothers,

it seemed good to us, being of one opinion, to send delegates to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

But Paul and Barnabas remained at Antioch, teaching and preaching with many others the word of the Lord.

AND after some days Paul said to Barnabas, Let us return and visit the brothers in every city in which we preached the word of the Lord, [and see] how they do.

and this she did for many days. And Paul being grieved turned around and said to the spirit, I command you, in the name of Jesus Christ, to come out of her. And it came out of her in that hour.

And some of them believed and adhered to Paul and Silas; of the pious Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few.

And the brothers immediately, by night, sent away Paul and Silas to Berea; and when they came they went into the synagogue of the Jews;

And when the Jews in Thessalonica knew that the word of God was preached by Paul at Berea, they came there exciting the multitudes.

Then the brothers immediately sent Paul away, as if to go by sea; but Silas and Timothy remained there.

And those conducting Paul brought him to Athens, and receiving a charge to Silas and Timothy to come to him as soon as possible, they departed.

And while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was moved within him as he saw the city wholly devoted to idolatry.

And when these things were accomplished, Paul was disposed by the Spirit, passing through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there I must see Rome.

And we going before by ship sailed to Assos, being about to take in Paul at that place; for so had he appointed, being about to go on foot himself.

For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, that it might not be necessary for him to spend a long time in Asia; for he hastened, if it was possible for him, to be at Jerusalem at the day of Pentecost.

And finding the disciples we continued there seven days; and they told Paul, by the Spirit, not to go on to Jerusalem.

and coming to us, and taking Paul's girdle, and binding his hands and feet, he said, These things, says the Holy Spirit; Thus will the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owns this girdle, and deliver him into the hands of the gentiles.

who immediately taking soldiers and centurions ran down upon them; and seeing the chiliarch and the soldiers, they ceased beating Paul.

And he giving him permission, Paul stood up on the steps, and motioned with his hand to the people; and when there was great silence, he spoke in the Hebrew language, and said,

And the chiliarch answered, I acquired this citizenship for a great price. But Paul said, I am indeed, and was also born [one].

AND on the next day, wishing to know the truth in respect to what he was accused of by the Jews, [the chiliarch] released him, and commanded the chief priests and all the Sanhedrim to come together; and bringing Paul down he set him before them.

And Paul looking steadily at the Sanhedrim, said, Men and brothers, I have lived before God in all good conscience to this day.

Then Paul said to him, God is about to strike you, whitewashed wall; and do you sit to judge me according to the law, and command me to be struck contrary to the law?

And Paul said, I knew not brothers that he was a chief priest; for it is written, You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people.

And Paul knowing that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, cried in the Sanhedrim, Men and brothers, I am a Pharisee and the son of Pharisees; for the hope and resurrection of the dead am I under trial.
