In Iconium
1 The same thing happened in Iconium: Paul and Barnabas went to the synagogue and spoke in such a way that a great number of Jews and Gentiles became believers. 2 But the Jews who would not believe stirred up the Gentiles and turned them against the believers. 3 The apostles stayed there for a long time, speaking boldly about the Lord, who proved that their message about his grace was true by giving them the power to perform miracles and wonders. 4 The people of the city were divided: some were for the Jews, others for the apostles.
5 Then some Gentiles and Jews, together with their leaders, decided to mistreat the apostles and stone them. 6 When the apostles learned about it, they fled to the cities of Lystra and Derbe in Lycaonia and to the surrounding territory. 7 There they preached the Good News.
In Lystra and Derbe
8 In Lystra there was a crippled man who had been lame from birth and had never been able to walk. 9 He sat there and listened to Paul's words. Paul saw that he believed and could be healed, so he looked straight at him 10 and said in a loud voice, “Stand up straight on your feet!” The man jumped up and started walking around. 11 When the crowds saw what Paul had done, they started shouting in their own Lycaonian language, “The gods have become like men and have come down to us!” 12 They gave Barnabas the name Zeus, and Paul the name Hermes, because he was the chief speaker. 13 The priest of the god Zeus, whose temple stood just outside the town, brought bulls and flowers to the gate, for he and the crowds wanted to offer sacrifice to the apostles.
14 When Barnabas and Paul heard what they were about to do, they tore their clothes and ran into the middle of the crowd, shouting, 15 “Why are you doing this? We ourselves are only human beings like you! We are here to announce the Good News, to turn you away from these worthless things to the living God, who made heaven, earth, sea, and all that is in them. 16 In the past he allowed all people to go their own way. 17 But he has always given evidence of his existence by the good things he does: he gives you rain from heaven and crops at the right times; he gives you food and fills your hearts with happiness.” 18 Even with these words the apostles could hardly keep the crowd from offering a sacrifice to them.
19 Some Jews came from Antioch in Pisidia and from Iconium; they won the crowds over to their side, stoned Paul and dragged him out of the town, thinking that he was dead. 20 But when the believers gathered around him, he got up and went back into the town. The next day he and Barnabas went to Derbe.
The Return to Antioch in Syria
21 Paul and Barnabas preached the Good News in Derbe and won many disciples. Then they went back to Lystra, to Iconium, and on to Antioch in Pisidia. 22 They strengthened the believers and encouraged them to remain true to the faith. “We must pass through many troubles to enter the Kingdom of God,” they taught. 23 In each church they appointed elders, and with prayers and fasting they commended them to the Lord, in whom they had put their trust.
24 After going through the territory of Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia. 25 There they preached the message in Perga and then went to Attalia, 26 and from there they sailed back to Antioch, the place where they had been commended to the care of God's grace for the work they had now completed.
27 When they arrived in Antioch, they gathered the people of the church together and told them about all that God had done with them and how he had opened the way for the Gentiles to believe. 28 And they stayed a long time there with the believers.

1 Un nūtyka, ka Ikonijā jī taipat īgōja jūdu synagogā un runōja tai, ka lels jūdu un pogōnu pulks īticēja. 2 Bet jūdi, kas naticeibā palyka, kūdynōja pogōnu prōtus un vede dusmōs pret brōlim. 3 Tūmār jī garu laiku palyka tur pat un drūšsirdeigi sludynōja par Kungu, kurs sovas žēlesteibas vōrdu aplīcynōja caur zeimem un breinumim, kuri caur jūs rūkom nūtyka.
4 Mīsta īdzeivōtōji sasaškēle: vīni pīsaturēja jūdu, ūtrī — apostolu. 5 Un kad pogōni un jūdi reizē ar sovim vacōkajim sasacēle, lai jūs iznycynōtu un nūmātōtu ar akminim, 6 tad jī, tū zynōdami, aizbāga uz Likaonijas mīstim: Lystru un Derbe un tūs apkōrtni un tur sludynōja Evangeliju.
7 Lystrā beja vīns cylvāks, kam kōjōs nabeja spāka. Jys nu dzimšonas beja klybs un vēļ nikod nabeja staigōjis. 8 Jys klausejōs Pōvula mōceibas, kurs, pasavēris uz tō un radzādams, ka jam ir ticeiba, lai tyktu izvasalōts, 9 lelā bolsā saceja: Celīs un nūstōj uz sovom kōjom taišni. Un tys, pīsatryucis kōjōs, staigōja.
10 Ļaužu pulks, radzādams tū, kū Pōvuls beja padarejis, pacēle sovu bolsu un lykaoniski sauce: Cylvāka veidā pi mums ir atnōkuši dīvi! 11 Un Barnabu tī nūsauce par Zeusu un Pōvulu par Ermesu, jo jys beja tys, kas vadeja runu. 12 Zeusa prīsters, kas beja ōrpus piļsātas, piļsātas vōrtu prīškā sanese vēršus un vaiņagus un kūpā ar ļaudim gribēja jim upurēt. 13 Tū izdzērduši, apostoli Barnabas un Pōvuls pōrplēse sovas drēbes, un, īskrējuši ļaužu pulkā, 14 sauce saceidami: Veiri, kū jyus te dorot?! Mes tadei asam leidzeigi jums cylvāki. Mes tik sludynojam jums Evangeliju, ka jyus nu tim nīceigim dīvaklim atsagrīztu pi dzeivō Dīva, kurs radeja dabasus, zemi, jyuras un vysu, kas jamōs ir. 15 Pagōjušajūs laikūs Jys vysas pogōnu tautas laide staigōt sovus pošu ceļus. 16 Dorūt lobu, pats sevis gon bez līceibas naatstōja: Jys tadei syuteja nu debesim leitu un augleigu laiku, deve jums pōrtyku un ar prīcu piļdeja jyusu sirdis. 17 Un tikkū‐tikkū caur šytū runu jī atturēja ļaužu pulkus, ka jim naupurātu.
18 Bet pēc tam, atgōjuši nu Antiochijas un Ikonijas, jūdi ļaudis pīrunōja, un tī Pōvulu nūmātōja ar akminim un izvylka nu piļsātas ōrā, dūmōdami, ka jys jau ir nadzeivs. 19 Sasalosūt apkōrt mōceklim, jys pīsacēle un īgōja mīstā. Nōkūšā dīnā jys reizē ar Barnabu devēs uz Derbe. 20 Ari šamā piļsātā jī sludynōja Evangeliju un daudzejūs atgrīze.
21 Pēc tam jī atgōja atpakaļ uz Lystru, Ikoniju un Antiochiju. Jī styprynōja mōcekļus un pamūdynōja jūs byut iztureigim ticeibā — mums tadei Dīva vaļsteibā jōīīt caur daudzejim spaidim. 22 Lyudzūtīs un gavejūt jī bazneicom īsvēteja pristerus un tūs, kuri beja īticējuši, atvēlēja Kungam. 23 Tad jī caur Pyzydiju aizgōja uz Pamfiliju 24 un Vōrdu sludynōja Pergā. Pēc tam jī aizgōja uz Ataliju 25 un nu turīnes laivā aizbrauce uz Antiochiju, nu kurīnes caur Dīva žēlesteibu beja nūdūti tai lītai, kuru jī izpiļdeja. 26 Pēc jūs atīšonas sasalaseja vysa bazneica, un jī stōsteja, cik lelas lītas Dīvs caur jim padareja, un ka ticeibas vōrtus atdareja ari pogōnim. 27-28 Tur pi mōceklim jī palyka garōku laiku.
