Acts 13:47-51

⁴⁷We are doing that also because the Lord God has commanded us to do it. He said to us, ‘I have appointed you to reveal things about me to non-Jewish people MET that will be like a light to them. I have appointed you to tell people everywhere MTY in the world about the one who came to save them.’ ”

⁴⁸While the non-Jewish people were listening to those words, they began to rejoice, and they repeatedly said that the message about the Lord Jesus was wonderful. And all of the non-Jewish people whom God had chosen ◄to have eternal life/to live eternally with God► believed the message about the Lord Jesus.

⁴⁹At that time, many of the believers traveled around throughout that region. As they did that, they were proclaiming the message about the Lord Jesus MTY.

⁵⁰However, some leaders of SYN the Jews incited the most important men in the city, and some important/influential women who had accepted what the Jews believe, to oppose Paul and Barnabas. So those non-Jewish people incited other people also to persecute Paul and Barnabas. As a result they expelled the two men from their region.

⁵¹So, as the two apostles were leaving, they shook the dust from their feet to show those Jewish leaders that God had rejected them and would punish them. They left Antioch and went to Iconium city.
