1 εγενετο δε εν ικονιω κατα το αυτο εισελθειν αυτους εις την συναγωγην των ιουδαιων και λαλησαι ουτως ωστε πιστευσαι ιουδαιων τε και ελληνων πολυ πληθος. 2 οι δε απειθουντες ιουδαιοι επηγειραν και εκακωσαν τας ψυχας των εθνων κατα των αδελφων. 3 ικανον μεν ουν χρονον διετριψαν παρρησιαζομενοι επι τω κυριω τω μαρτυρουντι τω λογω της χαριτος αυτου, διδοντι σημεια και τερατα γινεσθαι δια των χειρων αυτων. 4 εσχισθη δε το πληθος της πολεως, και οι μεν ησαν συν τοις ιουδαιοις, οι δε συν τοις αποστολοις. 5 ως δε εγενετο ορμη των εθνων τε και ιουδαιων συν τοις αρχουσιν αυτων υβρισαι και λιθοβολησαι αυτους, 6 συνιδοντες κατεφυγον εις τας πολεις της λυκαονιας λυστραν και δερβην και την περιχωρον, 7 κακει ησαν ευαγγελιζομενοι. 8 και τις ανηρ εν λυστροις αδυνατος τοις ποσιν εκαθητο, χωλος εκ κοιλιας μητρος αυτου υπαρχων, ος ουδεποτε περιπεπατηκει. 9 ουτος ηκουσεν του παυλου λαλουντος· ος ατενισας αυτω και ιδων οτι πιστιν εχει του σωθηναι, 10 ειπεν μεγαλη τη φωνη· αναστηθι επι τους ποδας σου ορθος. και ηλατο και περιεπατει. 11 οι δε οχλοι ιδοντες ο εποιησεν ο παυλος επηραν την φωνην αυτων λυκαονιστι λεγοντες· οι θεοι ομοιωθεντες ανθρωποις κατεβησαν προς ημας· 12 εκαλουν τε τον μεν βαρναβαν δια, τον δε παυλον ερμην, επειδη αυτος ην ο ηγουμενος του λογου. 13 ο δε ιερευς του διος του οντος προ της πολεως αυτων, ταυρους και στεμματα επι τους πυλωνας ενεγκας, συν τοις οχλοις ηθελεν θυειν. 14 ακουσαντες δε οι αποστολοι βαρναβας και παυλος, διαρρηξαντες τα ιματια αυτων εισεπηδησαν εις τον οχλον κραζοντες 15 και λεγοντες· ανδρες, τι ταυτα ποιειτε; και ημεις ομοιοπαθεις εσμεν υμιν ανθρωποι, ευαγγελιζομενοι υμας απο τουτων των ματαιων επιστρεφειν επι τον θεον τον ζωντα, ος εποιησεν τον ουρανον και την γην και την θαλασσαν και παντα τα εν αυτοις· 16 ος εν ταις παρωχημεναις γενεαις ειασεν παντα τα εθνη πορευεσθαι ταις οδοις αυτων· 17 καιτοι γε ουκ αμαρτυρον εαυτον αφηκεν αγαθοποιων, ουρανοθεν υμιν υετους διδους και καιρους καρποφορους, εμπιπλων τροφης και ευφροσυνης τας καρδιας υμων. 18 και ταυτα λεγοντες μολις κατεπαυσαν τους οχλους του μη θυειν αυτοις. 19 επηλθον δε απο αντιοχειας και ικονιου ιουδαιοι, και πεισαντες τους οχλους και λιθασαντες τον παυλον εσυραν εξω της πολεως, νομισαντες αυτον τεθναναι. 20 κυκλωσαντων δε αυτον των μαθητων αναστας εισηλθεν εις την πολιν, και τη επαυριον εξηλθεν συν τω βαρναβα εις δερβην. 21 ευαγγελισαμενοι τε την πολιν εκεινην και μαθητευσαντες ικανους υπεστρεψαν εις την λυστραν και ικονιον και αντιοχειαν, 22 επιστηριζοντες τας ψυχας των μαθητων, παρακαλουντες εμμενειν τη πιστει, και οτι δια πολλων θλιψεων δει ημας εισελθειν εις την βασιλειαν του θεου. 23 χειροτονησαντες δε αυτοις πρεσβυτερους κατ εκκλησιαν [και] προσευξαμενοι μετα νηστειων παρεθεντο αυτους τω κυριω, εις ον πεπιστευκασιν. 24 και διελθοντες την πισιδιαν ηλθον εις παμφυλιαν, 25 και λαλησαντες εν περγη τον λογον κατεβησαν εις ατταλειαν, 26 κακειθεν απεπλευσαν εις αντιοχειαν, οθεν ησαν παραδεδομενοι τη χαριτι του θεου εις το εργον ο επληρωσαν. 27 παραγενομενοι δε και συναγαγοντες την εκκλησιαν ανηγγειλαν οσα εποιησεν ο θεος μετ αυτων, και οτι ηνοιξεν τοις εθνεσιν θυραν πιστεως. 28 διετριβον δε εκει χρονον ουκ ολιγον συν τοις μαθηταις.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Mark the vehemence with which all this is done by the Apostles: "rent their clothes, ran in, cried out," all from strong affection of the soul, revolted by the things that were done.

Believe then that this Only-begotten Son of God for our sins came down from heaven upon earth, and took upon Him this human nature of like passions with us, and was begotten of the Holy Virgin and of the Holy Ghost, and was made Man, not in seeming and mere show, but in truth; nor yet by passing through the …
