Acts 14:10

Sickness and healingMiracles and God's intervention

8 In Lystra there sat a man crippled in his feet, who was lame from birth and had never walked.

9 This man was listening to the words of Paul, who looked intently at him and saw that he had faith to be healed.

In a loud voice Paul called out, “Stand up on your feet!” And the man jumped up and began to walk.

11 When the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices in the Lycaonian language: “The gods have come down to us in human form!”

12 Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul they called Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.
