'Persuaded' in the Bible

But if it is from God, you will not be able to overthrow them, lest you even be found fighting against God." So they were persuaded by him.

And some of them were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, and [also] a large number of God-fearing Greeks and not a few of the prominent women.

and you see and hear that not only in Ephesus but in almost all of Asia this man Paul has persuaded [and] turned away a large crowd [by] saying that the [gods] made by hands are not gods.

And [because] he would not be persuaded, we remained silent, saying, "The will of the Lord be done."

You therefore do not be persuaded by them, because more [than] forty men of {their number} are lying in wait [for] him, who have bound themselves under a curse neither to eat nor to drink until they have done away with him. And now they are ready, waiting for {you to agree}."
