43 And when the meeting of the synagogue broke up, many Jews and devout converts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who spoke to them and urged them to continue in the grace of God.

44 The next sabbath almost the whole city gathered together to hear the word of God. 45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted what was spoken by Paul, and reviled him. 46 And Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, saying, “It was necessary that the word of God should be spoken first to you. Since you thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles. 47 For so the Lord has commanded us, saying,

‘I have set you to be a light for the Gentiles,
that you may bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.’”

48 And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and glorified the word of God; and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed. 49 And the word of the Lord spread throughout all the region. 50 But the Jews incited the devout women of high standing and the leading men of the city, and stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their district. 51 But they shook off the dust from their feet against them, and went to Ico′nium. 52 And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.

46 Then Paul and Barnabas answered them boldly: “We had to speak the word of God to you first.(D) Since you reject it and do not consider yourselves worthy of eternal life, we now turn to the Gentiles.(E) 47 For this is what the Lord has commanded us:

“‘I have made you[a] a light for the Gentiles,(F)
    that you[b] may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.’[c](G)

48 When the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and honored the word of the Lord;(H) and all who were appointed for eternal life believed.

49 The word of the Lord(I) spread through the whole region. 50 But the Jewish leaders incited the God-fearing women of high standing and the leading men of the city. They stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their region.(J) 51 So they shook the dust off their feet(K) as a warning to them and went to Iconium.(L) 52 And the disciples(M) were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.(N)
