Acts 14:20-25

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.

²²In each of those towns they talked to the Christians and said, “Keep on believing in Jesus and don’t turn back from him. Some people will keep making big trouble for all of us Christians, but don’t worry, Jesus is with us. We are in God’s family now.”

²³Then Paul and Barnabas picked leaders for the Christians in each church. After that they stopped eating for a while and prayed for those leaders. They prayed, “Jesus, our leader, these men believe in you now, so we ask you to look after them all the time.”

²⁴Then Paul and Barnabas left that place and went through that Pisidia country and they came to the country called Pamphylia.

²⁵In a town called Perga they talked to the people about Jesus, then they went to the town called Attalia near the sea.
