44:013:010 And said, O full of all subtilty and all
mischief, thou child
of
the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou
not
cease
to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
44:013:011 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is
upon thee, and thou
shalt
be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And
immediately
there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he
went
about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
44:013:012 Then the deputy, when he saw what was done,
believed, being
astonished
at the doctrine of the Lord.
44:013:013 Now when Paul and his company loosed from
Paphos, they came to
Perga
in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned
to
Jerusalem.
44:013:014 But when they departed from Perga, they
came to Antioch in
Pisidia,
and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and
sat
down.
44:013:015 And after the reading of the law and the
prophets the rulers
of
the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren,
if
ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say
on.
44:013:016 Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with
his hand said, Men of
Israel,
and ye that fear God, give audience.
44:013:017 The God of this people of Israel chose
our fathers, and
exalted
the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land
of
Egypt,
and with an high arm brought he them out of it.
44:013:018 And about the time of forty years suffered
he their manners in
the
wilderness.
44:013:019 And when he had destroyed seven nations
in the land of
Chanaan,
he divided their land to them by lot.
44:013:020 And after that he gave unto them judges
about the space of
four
hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.
44:013:021 And afterward they desired a king:
and God gave unto them Saul
the
son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the
space
of
forty years.
44:013:022 And when he had removed him, he raised
up unto them David to
be
their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and
said,
I
have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine
own
heart,
which shall fulfil all my will.
44:013:023 Of this man’s seed hath God according
to his promise raised
unto
Israel a Saviour, Jesus:
44:013:024 When John had first preached before his
coming the baptism of
repentance
to all the people of Israel.
44:013:025 And as John fulfilled his course, he said,
Whom think ye that
I
am? I am not he. But, behold, there cometh
one after me,
whose
shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.
