[HNV] The Acts of the Emissaries 13, World English Bible: Messianic Edition
The Acts of the Emissaries, Chapter 13
{13:1} Now in the assembly that was at Antioch there were some
prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius
of Cyrene, Manaen the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
{13:2} As they served the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said,
Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have
called them.
{13:3} Then, when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on
them, they sent them away. {13:4} So, being sent out by the Holy
Spirit, they went down to Seleucia. From there they sailed to Cyprus.
{13:5} When they were at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in
the Jewish synagogues. They had also Yochanan as their attendant.
{13:6} When they had gone through the island to Paphos, they found a
certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-Yeshua,
{13:7} who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of
understanding. This man summoned Barnabas and Saul, and sought to hear
the word of God. {13:8} But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by
interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn aside the proconsul
from the faith. {13:9} But Saul, who is also called [1]Paul[1],
filled with the Holy Spirit, fastened his eyes on him, {13:10} and
said, Full of all deceit and all cunning, you son of the devil, you
enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to pervert the right
ways of the Lord? {13:11} Now, behold, the hand of the Lord is on you,
and you will be blind, not seeing the sun for a season!
Immediately a mist and darkness fell on him. He went around seeking
someone to lead him by the hand. {13:12} Then the proconsul, when he
saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the teaching of the
Lord.
{13:13} Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos, and came to
Perga in Pamphylia. Yochanan departed from them and returned to
Jerusalem. {13:14} But they, passing on from Perga, came to Antioch of
Pisidia. They went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and sat
down. {13:15} After the reading of the Torah and the Prophets, the
rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Brothers, if you have
any word of exhortation for the people, speak.
{13:16} Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of
Israel, and you who fear God, listen. {13:17} The God of this
people[2] chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they stayed
as aliens in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm, he led them
out of it. {13:18} For a period of about forty years he put up with
them in the wilderness. {13:19} When he had destroyed seven nations in
the land of Canaan, he gave them their land for an inheritance, for
about four hundred fifty years. {13:20} After these things he gave
them judges until Samuel the prophet. {13:21} Afterward they asked for
a king, and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe
of Benjamin, for forty years. {13:22} When he had removed him, he
raised up David to be their king, to whom he also testified, 'I have
found David the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who will do all my
will.' {13:23} From this man's seed, God has brought [3]salvation[3]
to Israel according to his promise, {13:24} before his coming, when
Yochanan had first preached the immersion of repentance [4]to
Israel.[4] {13:25} As Yochanan was fulfilling his course, he said,
'What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. But behold, one comes
after me the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.' {13:26}
Brothers, children of the stock of Abraham, and those among you who
fear God, the word of this salvation is sent out to you. {13:27} For
those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they didn't
know him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath,
fulfilled them by condemning him. {13:28} Though they found no cause
for death, they still asked Pilate to have him killed. {13:29} When
they had fulfilled all things that were written about him, they took
him down from the tree, and laid him in a tomb. {13:30} But God raised
him from the dead, {13:31} and he was seen for many days by those who
came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to
the people. {13:32} We bring you good news of the promise made to the
fathers, {13:33} that God has fulfilled the same to us, their
children, in that he raised up Yeshua. As it is also written in the
second psalm,
'You are my Son.
Today I have become your father.'[5]
{13:34} Concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more
to return to corruption, he has spoken thus: 'I will give you the holy
and sure blessings of David.'[6] {13:35} Therefore he says also in
another psalm, 'You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.'[7]
{13:36} For David, after he had in his own generation served the
counsel of God, fell asleep, and was laid with his fathers, and saw
decay. {13:37} But he whom God raised up saw no decay.
