AND it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.

Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν Ἰκονίῳ κατὰ τὸ αὐτὸ εἰσελθεῖν αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν συναγωγὴν τῶν Ἰουδαίων καὶ λαλῆσαι οὕτως ὥστε πιστεῦσαι Ἰουδαίων τε καὶ ῾Ελλήνων πολὺ πλῆθος.

Бы́сть же во і҆коні́и, вкꙋ́пѣ вни́ти и҆́ма въ со́нмище і҆ꙋде́йское и҆ глаго́лати та́кѡ, ꙗ҆́кѡ вѣ́ровати і҆ꙋде́євъ и҆ є҆́ллинѡвъ мно́жествꙋ мно́гꙋ.

2

But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.

οἱ δὲ ἀπειθοῦντες Ἰουδαῖοι ἐπήγειραν καὶ ἐκάκωσαν τὰς ψυχὰς τῶν ἐθνῶν κατὰ τῶν ἀδελφῶν.

Невѣ́рꙋющїи же і҆ꙋде́є воздвиго́ша и҆ ѡ҆ѕло́биша {къ ѕло́бѣ под̾ꙋсти́ша} дꙋ́шы ꙗ҆зы́кѡвъ на бра́тїю.

3

Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

ἱκανὸν μὲν οὖν χρόνον διέτριψαν παρρησιαζόμενοι ἐπὶ τῷ Κυρίῳ μαρτυροῦντι τῷ λόγῳ τῆς χάριτος αὐτοῦ, διδόντι σημεῖα καὶ τέρατα γίνεσθαι διὰ τῶν χειρῶν αὐτῶν.

Дово́льно же ᲂу҆̀бо вре́мѧ пребы́ста дерза̑юща ѡ҆ гдⷭ҇ѣ, свидѣ́тельствꙋющемъ сло́вꙋ блгⷣти своеѧ̀ и҆ даю́щемъ зна́мєнїѧ и҆ чꙋдеса̀ бы́ти рꙋка́ма и҆́хъ.

4

But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

ἐσχίσθη δὲ τὸ πλῆθος τῆς πόλεως, καὶ οἱ μὲν ἦσαν σὺν τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις, οἱ δὲ σὺν τοῖς ἀποστόλοις.

Раздѣли́шажесѧ мно́жество гра́да, и҆ ѻ҆́ви ᲂу҆́бѡ бѧ́хꙋ со і҆ꙋдє́и, ѻ҆́ви же со а҆пⷭ҇лы.

5

And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them,

ὡς δὲ ἐγένετο ὁρμὴ τῶν ἐθνῶν τε καὶ Ἰουδαίων σὺν τοῖς ἄρχουσιν αὐτῶν ὑβρίσαι καὶ λιθοβολῆσαι αὐτούς,

И҆ є҆гда̀ бы́сть стремле́нїе ꙗ҆зы́кѡмъ же и҆ і҆ꙋде́ємъ съ нача̑льники и҆́хъ досади́ти и҆ ка́менїемъ поби́ти и҆̀хъ,

6

They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about:

συνιδόντες κατέφυγον εἰς τὰς πόλεις τῆς Λυκαονίας Λύστραν καὶ Δέρβην καὶ τὴν περίχωρον,

[Заⷱ҇ 34] ᲂу҆вѣ̑дѣвша же прибѣго́ста во гра́ды лѷкаѡ́нскїѧ, въ лѵ́стрꙋ и҆ де́рвїю, и҆ во ѡ҆крє́стныѧ и҆́хъ,

7

And there they preached the gospel.

κἀκεῖ ἦσαν εὐαγγελιζόμενοι.

и҆ та́мѡ бѣ́ста благовѣствꙋ̑юща.

8

And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked:

Καί τις ἀνὴρ ἐν Λύστροις ἀδύνατος τοῖς ποσὶν ἐκάθητο, χωλὸς ἐκ κοιλίας μητρὸς αὐτοῦ ὑπάρχων, ὃς οὐδέποτε περιπεπατήκει.

И҆ нѣ́кто мꙋ́жъ въ лѵ́стрѣхъ не́мощенъ нога́ма сѣдѧ́ше, хро́мъ ѿ чре́ва ма́тере своеѧ̀ сы́й, и҆́же николи́же бѣ̀ ходи́лъ.

9

The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,

οὗτος ἤκουσε τοῦ Παύλου λαλοῦντος· ὃς ἀτενίσας αὐτῷ καὶ ἰδὼν ὅτι πίστιν ἔχει τοῦ σωθῆναι,

Се́й слы́шаше па́ѵла глаго́люща: и҆́же воззрѣ́въ на́нь и҆ ви́дѣвъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ вѣ́рꙋ и҆́мать здра́въ бы́ти,

10

Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.

εἶπε μεγάλῃ τῇ φωνῇ· ἀνάστηθι ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας σου ὀρθός. καὶ ἥλατο καὶ περιεπάτει.

речѐ ве́лїимъ гла́сомъ: тебѣ̀ глаго́лю во и҆́мѧ гдⷭ҇а і҆и҃са хрⷭ҇та̀, вста́ни на ногꙋ̀ твоє́ю пра́въ. И҆ а҆́бїе возскочѝ и҆ хожда́ше.

11

And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.

οἱ δὲ ὄχλοι ἰδόντες ὃ ἐποίησεν ὁ Παῦλος ἐπῆραν τὴν φωνὴν αὐτῶν Λυκαονιστὶ λέγοντες· οἱ θεοὶ ὁμοιωθέντες ἀνθρώποις κατέβησαν πρὸς ἡμᾶς·

Наро́ди же ви́дѣвше, є҆́же сотворѝ па́ѵелъ, воздвиго́ша гла́съ сво́й, лѷкао́нски глаго́люще: бо́зи ᲂу҆подо́бльшесѧ человѣ́кѡмъ снидо́ша къ на́мъ.

12

And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.

ἐκάλουν τε τὸν μὲν Βαρνάβαν Δία, τὸν δὲ Παῦλον ῾Ερμῆν, ἐπειδὴ αὐτὸς ἦν ὁ ἡγούμενος τοῦ λόγου.

Нарица́хꙋ же ᲂу҆́бѡ варна́вꙋ ді́а, па́ѵла же є҆рмі́а, поне́же то́й бѧ́ше нача́льникъ сло́ва.

13

Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.

ὁ δὲ ἱερεὺς τοῦ Διὸς τοῦ ὄντος πρὸ τῆς πόλεως αὐτῶν, ταύρους καὶ στέμματα ἐπὶ τοὺς πυλῶνας ἐνέγκας, σὺν τοῖς ὄχλοις ἤθελε θύειν.

Жре́цъ же ді́евъ, сꙋ́щагѡ пред̾ гра́домъ и҆́хъ, приведѐ ю҆нцы̀ и҆ (принесѐ) вѣнцы̀ пред̾ врата̀, съ нарѡ́ды хотѧ́ше жре́ти.

14

Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,

ἀκούσαντες δὲ οἱ ἀπόστολοι Βαρνάβας καὶ Παῦλος, διαρρήξαντες τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτῶν εἰσεπήδησαν εἰς τὸν ὄχλον κράζοντες

Слы̑шавша же а҆пⷭ҇ла варна́ва и҆ па́ѵелъ, растерза̑вша ри̑зы своѧ̑, вскочи́ста въ наро́дъ, зовꙋ̑ща и҆ глагѡ́люща:

15

And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein:

καὶ λέγοντες· ἄνδρες, τί ταῦτα ποιεῖτε; καὶ ἡμεῖς ὁμοιοπαθεῖς ἐσμεν ὑμῖν ἄνθρωποι, εὐαγγελιζόμενοι ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ τούτων τῶν ματαίων ἐπιστρέφειν ἐπὶ τὸν Θεὸν τὸν ζῶντα, ὃς ἐποίησε τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν καὶ πάντα τὰ ἐν αὐτοῖς·

мꙋ́жїе, что̀ сїѧ̑ творитѐ; и҆ мы̀ подобостра̑стна є҆сма̀ ва́мъ человѣ̑ка, благовѣствꙋ̑юща ва́мъ ѿ си́хъ сꙋ́етныхъ ѡ҆браща́тисѧ къ бг҃ꙋ жи́вꙋ, и҆́же сотворѝ не́бо и҆ зе́млю и҆ мо́ре и҆ всѧ̑, ꙗ҆̀же въ ни́хъ:

16

Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.

ὃς ἐν ταῖς παρῳχημέναις γενεαῖς εἴασε πάντα τὰ ἔθνη πορεύεσθαι ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτῶν

и҆́же въ мимоше́дшыѧ ро́ды ѡ҆ста́вилъ бѣ̀ всѧ̑ ꙗ҆зы́ки ходи́ти въ пꙋте́хъ и҆́хъ:

17

Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.

καίτοι γε οὐκ ἀμάρτυρον ἑαυτὸν ἀφῆκεν ἀγαθοποιῶν, οὐρανόθεν ὑμῖν ὑετοὺς διδοὺς καὶ καιροὺς καρποφόρους, ἐμπιπλῶν τροφῆς καὶ εὐφροσύνης τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν.

и҆ ᲂу҆́бѡ не несвидѣ́тельствована себѐ ѡ҆ста́ви, бл҃готворѧ̀, съ небесѐ на́мъ дожди̑ даѧ̀ и҆ времена̀ плодонѡ́сна, и҆сполнѧ́ѧ пи́щею и҆ весе́лїемъ сердца̀ на̑ша.

18

And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.

καὶ ταῦτα λέγοντες μόλις κατέπαυσαν τοὺς ὄχλους τοῦ μὴ θύειν αὐτοῖς.

И҆ сїѧ̑ глагѡ́люща, є҆два̀ ᲂу҆ста́виста наро́ды не жре́ти и҆́ма, но ѿитѝ коемꙋ́ждо во своѧ̑ си. Пребыва́ющема же и҆́ма и҆ ᲂу҆ча́щема,

19

And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead.

ἐπῆλθον δὲ ἀπὸ Ἀντιοχείας καὶ Ἰκονίου Ἰουδαῖοι καὶ πείσαντες τοὺς ὄχλους καὶ λιθάσαντες τὸν Παῦλον ἔσυραν ἔξω τῆς πόλεως, νομίσαντες αὐτὸν τεθνάναι.

прїидо́ша ѿ а҆нтїохі́и и҆ і҆коні́и нѣ́цыи і҆ꙋде́є, и҆ стѧза́ющемасѧ и҆́ма съ дерзнове́нїемъ, наꙋсти́ша наро́ды ѿстꙋпи́ти ѿ нею̀, глаго́люще, ꙗ҆́кѡ ничто́же и҆́стинно глаго́лета, но всѐ лже́та. И҆ наꙋсти́вше наро́ды и҆ ка́менїемъ поби́вше па́ѵла, и҆звлеко́ша внѣ̀ гра́да, мнѧ́ще є҆го̀ ᲂу҆ме́рша.

20

Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

κυκλωσάντων δὲ αὐτὸν τῶν μαθητῶν ἀναστὰς εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὴν πόλιν, καὶ τῇ ἐπαύριον ἐξῆλθε σὺν τῷ Βαρνάβᾳ εἰς Δέρβην.

Ѡ҆́крестъ же ста́вшымъ є҆гѡ̀ ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́мъ, воста́въ вни́де во гра́дъ [Заⷱ҇ 35] и҆ наꙋ́трїе и҆зы́де съ варна́вою въ де́рвїю.

21

And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,

Εὐαγγελισάμενοί τε τὴν πόλιν ἐκείνην καὶ μαθητεύσαντες ἱκανοὺς ὑπέστρεψαν εἰς τὴν Λύστραν καὶ Ἰκόνιον καὶ Ἀντιόχειαν,

Благовѣствова̑вша же гра́дꙋ томꙋ̀ и҆ наꙋчи̑вша мнѡ́ги, возврати́стасѧ въ лѵ́стрꙋ и҆ і҆коні́ю и҆ а҆нтїохі́ю,

22

Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.

ἐπιστηρίζοντες τὰς ψυχὰς τῶν μαθητῶν, παρακαλοῦντες ἐμμένειν τῇ πίστει, καὶ ὅτι διὰ πολλῶν θλίψεων δεῖ ἡμᾶς εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ.

ᲂу҆твержда̑юща дꙋ́шы ᲂу҆чн҃кѡ́въ, молѧ̑ща пребы́ти въ вѣ́рѣ, и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ мно́гими скорбьмѝ подоба́етъ на́мъ вни́ти въ црⷭ҇твїе бж҃їе.

23

And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.

χειροτονήσαντες δὲ αὐτοῖς πρεσβυτέρους κατ᾿ ἐκκλησίαν καὶ προσευξάμενοι μετὰ νηστειῶν παρέθεντο αὐτοὺς τῷ Κυρίῳ, εἰς ὃν πεπιστεύκασι.

Рꙋкополѡ́жша же и҆̀мъ пресвѵ́теры на всѧ̑ цр҃кви и҆ помоли̑вшасѧ съ посто́мъ, преда́ста и҆̀хъ гдⷭ҇еви, въ него́же ᲂу҆вѣ́роваша.

24

And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.

καὶ διελθόντες τὴν Πισιδίαν ἦλθον εἰς Παμφυλίαν,

И҆ прошє́дша пїсїді́ю, прїидо́ста въ памфѷлі́ю:

25

And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:

καὶ λαλήσαντες ἐν Πέργῃ τὸν λόγον κατέβησαν εἰς Ἀττάλειαν,

и҆ глагѡ́лавша въ пергі́и сло́во гдⷭ҇не, снидо́ста во а҆тталі́ю

26

And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.

κἀκεῖθεν ἀπέπλευσαν εἰς Ἀντιόχειαν, ὅθεν ἦσαν παραδεδομένοι τῇ χάριτι τοῦ Θεοῦ εἰς τὸ ἔργον ὃ ἐπλήρωσαν.

и҆ ѿтꙋ́дꙋ ѿплы́ста во а҆нтїохі́ю, ѿню́дꙋже бѣ́ста прє́дана блгⷣти бж҃їей въ дѣ́ло, є҆́же сконча́ста.

27

And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.

Παραγενόμενοι δὲ καὶ συναγαγόντες τὴν ἐκκλησίαν ἀνήγγειλαν ὅσα ἐποίησεν ὁ Θεὸς μετ᾿ αὐτῶν, καὶ ὅτι ἤνοιξε τοῖς ἔθνεσι θύραν πίστεως.

Пришє́дша же и҆ собра̑вша цр҃ковь, сказа́ста, є҆ли̑ка сотворѝ бг҃ъ съ ни́ма и҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ ѿве́рзе ꙗ҆зы́кѡмъ две́рь вѣ́ры:

28

And there they abode long time with the disciples.

διέτριβον δὲ ἐκεῖ χρόνον οὐκ ὀλίγον σὺν τοῖς μαθηταῖς.

пребы́ста же та́мѡ вре́мѧ не ма́ло со ᲂу҆чн҃ки̑.
