1 Being arriv'd at Iconium, they went both together to the Jewish synagogue, where they discours'd in such a manner, that a great number both of Jews and of Greeks believed. 2 but the disbelieving Jews practis'd upon the Gentiles, and inflam'd their minds against the brethren. 3 however the apostles stay'd there a considerable time, being inspir'd with great resolution by the Lord, who gave his attestation to the evangelical doctrine, by the prodigys and miracles, which he did by their hands. 4 so that the people of the city were divided, some siding with the Jews, and others with the apostles. 5 upon this the Gentiles and the Jews, supported by their magistrates, made an insurrection in order to use violence against them, and even to stone them: 6 of which they were appriz'd, and fled to Lystra and Derbe, citys of Lycaonia, and to the adjacent country, 7 where they preach'd the gospel. 8 Now at Lystra there was a man, who could not stand upon his feet, he was born a cripple, and had never walked about. 9 one day he heard Paul preach, who fixing his eyes upon him, and perceiving that he expected to be cured, 10 he said to him aloud, rise and stand right upon your feet: upon which he leap'd up and walk'd.
