Actuum Apostolorum 14

1 Factum est autem Iconii ut simul introirent in synagogam Iudaeorum, et loquerentur, ita ut crederet Iudaeorum, et Graecorum copiosa multitudo.

And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke that a great multitude both of Jews and Greeks believed.

2 Qui vero increduli fuerunt Iudaei, suscitaverunt, et ad iracundiam concitaverunt animas Gentium adversus fratres.

But the Jews that disbelieved stirred up and embittered the minds of the gentiles against the brethren.

3 Multo igitur tempore demorati sunt, fiducialiter agentes in Domino, testimonium perhibente verbo gratiae suae, dante signa, et prodigia fieri per manus eorum.

They abode therefore a long time there, speaking boldly in reliance on the Lord, who gave testimony to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be wrought by their a hands.

4 Divisa est autem multitudo civitatis: et quidam quidem erant cum Iudaeis, quidam vero cum Apostolis.

But the multitude of the city was divided; and some held with the Jews, and some with the apostles.

5 Cum autem factus esset impetus Gentilium, et Iudaeorum cum principibus suis, ut contumeliis afficerent, et lapidarent eos,

And when a movement was made both of the gentiles, and the Jews with their rulers, to abuse and stone them,

6 intelligentes confugerunt ad civitates Licaoniae Lystram, et Derben, et universam in circuitu regionem,

they became aware of it, and fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the neighboring country;

7 et ibi evangelizantes erant.

and they were publishing the glad tidings there.

8 Et quidam vir Lystris infirmus pedibus sedebat, claudus ex utero matris suae, qui numquam ambulaverat.

And at Lystra there sat a certain man who had not the use of his feet, a cripple from his birth, who never had walked.

9 Hic audivit Paulum loquentem. Qui intuitus eum, et videns quia fidem haberet ut salvus fieret,

This man heard Paul speaking; who looking steadily at him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,

10 dixit magna voce: Surge super pedes tuos rectus. Et exilivit, et ambulabat.

said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped up and walked.

11 Turbae autem cum vidissent quod fecerat Paulus, levaverunt vocem suam Licaonice dicentes: Dii similes facti hominibus, descenderunt ad nos.

And the multitudes, seeing what Paul had done, lifted up their voices, saying, in the language of Lycaonia, The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men.

12 Et vocabant Barnabam Iovem, Paulum vero Mercurium: quoniam ipse erat dux verbi.

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

13 Sacerdos quoque Iovis, qui erat ante civitatem, tauros, et coronas ante ianuas afferens, cum populis volebat sacrificare.

Then the priest of Jupiter, that was in front of the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and would have offered sacrifice with the multitudes.

14 Quod ubi audierunt Apostoli, Barnabas et Paulus, conscissis tunicis suis exilierunt in turbas clamantes,

But the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, when they heard of it, rent their garments, and rushed forth to the multitude, crying out

15 et dicentes: Viri, quid haec facitis? et nos mortales sumus, similes vobis homines, annunciantes vobis ab his vanis converti ad Deum vivum, qui fecit caelum, et terram, et mare, et omnia quae in eis sunt:

and saying, Men, why do ye these things? We also are men of like nature with you, bringing to you glad tidings, that ye may turn from these vanities to the living God, who made heaven and earth and sea, and all things that are therein;

16 qui in praeteritis generationibus dimisit omnes gentes ingredi vias suas.

who in the ages past suffered all the nations to walk in their own ways;

17 Et quidem non sine testimonio semetipsum reliquit benefaciens de caelo, dans pluvias, et tempora fructifera, implens cibo, et laetitia corda eorum.

although he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, giving you rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.

18 Et haec dicentes, vix sedaverunt turbas ne sibi immolarent.

And with these words, they hardly restrained the multitudes from sacrificing to them.

19 Supervenerunt autem quidam ab Antiochia, et Iconio Iudaei: et persuasis turbis, lapidantesque Paulum, traxerunt extra civitatem, existimantes eum mortuum esse.

But there came thither Jews from Antioch and Iconium; who, having persuaded the multitudes, and stoned Paul, dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.

20 Circumdantibus autem eum discipulis, surgens intravit civitatem, et postera die profectus est cum Barnaba in Derben.

But the disciples having gathered around him, he rose up, and came into the city. And the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

21 Cumque evangelizassent civitati illi, et docuissent multos, reversi sunt Lystram, et Iconium, et Antiochiam,

And when they had published the glad tidings to that city, and had made many disciples, they went back to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch;

22 confirmantes animas discipulorum, exhortantesque ut permanerent in fide: et quoniam per multas tribulationes oportet nos intrare in regnum Dei.

confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and saying that it is through many afflictions that we mast enter into the kingdom of God.

23 Et cum constituissent illis per singulas ecclesias presbyteros, et orassent cum ieiunationibus, commendaverunt eos Domino, in quem crediderunt.

And having appointed for them elders in every church, they prayed with fasting, and commended them to the Lord, in whom they believed.

24 Transeuntesque Pisidiam, venerunt in Pamphyliam,

And having gone through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia;

25 et loquentes verbum Domini in Pergen, descenderunt in Attaliam:

and when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia,

26 et inde navigaverunt Antiochiam, unde erant traditi gratiae Dei in opus, quod compleverunt.

and thence set sail for Antioch, whence they had been commended to the grace of God, for the work which they had accomplished.

27 Cum autem venissent, et congregassent Ecclesiam, retulerunt quanta fecisset Deus cum illis, et quia aperuisset Gentibus ostium fidei.

And when they had arrived and had gathered the church together, they related what great things God had wrought with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the gentiles.

28 Morati sunt autem tempus non modicum cum discipulis.

And they abode no little time with the disciples.
