Acts 14:16-21

¹⁶And he let the people in every country go their own way, up till now,

¹⁷but he still shows them that he is the only real God. He always did good things for them, and he does good things for you too. He gives you rain and makes your food grow so that you can be happy.”

¹⁸Paul and Barnabas kept talking to the people like that. The people still wanted to kill the bulls for them, but at last they listened to Paul and Barnabas and they didn’t kill those bulls.

¹⁹After that, some Jews came to that place from the towns called Antioch and Iconium, and they talked to the Lystra people and made them angry with Paul. Then those people threw big stones at Paul until they thought he was dead, then they dragged him outside the town and left him there.

²⁰But some Christians came and stood around Paul, and he got up and went back into the town. The next day Paul and Barnabas left that place and went to the town called Derbe.

²¹Paul and Barnabas told the people there the good news about Jesus, and a lot of people believed in him. After that Paul and Barnabas went back to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch in Pisidia country.
