Acts 14:5When there was an attempt by both Gentiles and Jews, with their rulers, to mistreat them and stone them,Acts 14:6they learned of it and fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the surrounding region,Acts 14:7and there they continued to preach the gospel.Acts 14:8Now at Lystra there was a man sitting who could not use his feet. He was crippled from birth and had never walked.Acts 14:9He listened to Paul speaking. And Paul, looking intently at him and seeing that he had faith to be made well,Acts 14:10said in a loud voice, “Stand upright on your feet.” And he sprang up and began walking.Acts 14:11And when the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in Lycaonian, “The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!”Acts 14:12They called Barnabas Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.
