44:012:021 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon
his throne, and made an oration unto them.
44:012:022 And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god,
and not of a man.
44:012:023 And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he
gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up
the ghost.
44:012:024 But the word of God grew and multiplied.
44:012:025 And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had
fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose
surname was Mark.
44:013:001 Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain
prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called
Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been
brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
44:013:002 As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost
said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I
have called them.
44:013:003 And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on
them, they sent them away.
44:013:004 So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto
Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
44:013:005 And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God
in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to their
minister.
44:013:006 And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they
found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name
was Barjesus:
44:013:007 Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a
prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to
hear the word of God.
44:013:008 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation)
withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the
faith.
44:013:009 Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy
Ghost, set his eyes on him.
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.
