A miracle in Lystra following by a stoning

14:8 A miracle in Lystra following by a stoning

8In Lystra there was a man sitting there who had been unable to use his legs since birth. 9He was listening to Paul speaking, when Paul looked straight at him and realised that the man had the faith to be healed. 10So in a loud voice, Paul said, “Stand upright on your feet.” And the man sprang up and was walking around. 11The crowd of people who saw what Paul had done began to shout out in Lycaonian, “These two look like men, but they’re really gods who have come down to us!” 12They called Barnabas ‘Zeus’ and called PaulHermassince he was the main speaker. 13And the priest of Zeus wanted to sacrifice with the crowds, so he brought bulls and garlands of flowers to the city gates from the temple on the path to the city.

14But when the missionaries Barnabas and Paul heard what was going on, they tore their clothes in dismay as they rushed out into the crowd 15shouting, “Men, why are you doing all these things? We are only humans just like all of you. We were bringing you the good message about abandoning these useless sacrifices and turning to the living God who made heaven and the earth and the sea and everything in them.[ref] 16In previous generations he allowed all the nations to go their own different ways, 17but he never left himself without evidence of himself—sending good rains from heaven to give you all fruitful seasons with food to fill your stomachs and happiness to fill your hearts.” 18By saying these things, they were eventually just able to restrain the people from sacrificing to them.

19But some strict Jews came over from Pisidian Antioch and Iconium and were able to persuade the crowds. They threw rocks at Paul to kill him and dragged his body outside the city gates thinking that he was dead. 20But as the believers were standing around him, Paul got up and went back into the city, but he left again with Barnabas the next day and went to Derbe.
