<p class="bodytext">Now<n id="1" /> when the other ten<n id="2" /> heard this,<n id="3" /> they were angry with the two brothers.

After<n id="1" /> they had spent some time there,<n id="2" /> they were sent off in peace by the brothers to those who had sent them.

The brothers in Lystra<n id="1" /> and Iconium<n id="2" /> spoke well<n id="3" /> of him.<n id="4" />

You will be betrayed even by parents,<n id="1" /> brothers, relatives,<n id="2" /> and friends, and they will have some of you put to death.

But the Jews who refused to believe<n id="1" /> stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds<n id="2" /> against the brothers.

but Paul chose Silas and set out, commended<n id="1" /> to the grace of the Lord by the brothers and sisters.<n id="2" />

For I rejoiced greatly when the brothers came and testified to your truth, just as you are living according to the truth.<n id="1" />p>

And the king will answer them,<n id="1" /> &#8216;I tell you the truth,<n id="2" /> just as you did it for one of the least of these brothers or sisters<n id="3" /> of mine, you did it for me.&#8217;p>

In those days<n id="1" /> Peter stood up among the believers<n id="2" /> (a gathering of about one hundred and twenty people) and said,

This is the Moses who said to the Israelites,<n id="1" /> &#8216;<b><i>God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brothersi>b>.&#8217;<n id="2" />

So Peter<n id="1" /> invited them in and entertained them as guests.p> <p class="bodytext">On the next day he got up and set out<n id="2" /> with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa<n id="3" /> accompanied him.

For I could wish<n id="1" /> that I myself were accursed &#8211; cut off from Christ &#8211; for the sake of my people,<n id="2" /> my fellow countrymen,<n id="3" />

So then, let no one treat him with contempt. But send him on his way in peace so that he may come to me. For I am expecting him with the brothers.<n id="1" />p>

and most of the brothers and sisters,<n id="1" /> having confidence in the Lord<n id="2" /> because of my imprisonment, now more than ever<n id="3" /> dare to speak the word<n id="4" /> fearlessly.p>

We have come to know love by this:<n id="1" /> that Jesus<n id="2" /> laid down<n id="3" /> his life for us; thus we ought to lay down our lives for our fellow Christians.

Moses said, &#8216;<i><b>The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brothersb>. <b>You must obeyb>i><n id="1" /> <b><i>him in everything he tells youi>b>.<n id="2" />

They replied,<n id="1" /> &#8220;We have received no letters from Judea about you, nor have any of the brothers come from there<n id="2" /> and reported or said anything bad about you.

<p class="bodytext">With regard to our brother Apollos: I strongly encouraged him to visit you with the other brothers,<n id="1" /> but it was simply not his intention to come now.<n id="2" /> He will come when he has the opportunity.p>

But<n id="1" /> he said to me, &#8220;Do not do this!<n id="2" /> I am a fellow servant<n id="3" /> with you and with your brothers the prophets, and with those who obey<n id="4" /> the words of this book. Worship God!&#8221;

Then<n id="1" /> I heard a loud voice in heaven saying,p> <p class="poetry">&#8220;The salvation and the powerp> <p class="poetry">and the kingdom of our God,p> <p class="poetry">and the ruling authority<n id="2" /> of his Christ,<n id="3" /> have now come,p> <p class="poetry">because the accuser of our brothers and sisters,<n id="4" />p> <p class="poetry">the one who accuses them day and night<n id="5" /> before our God,p> <p class="poetry">has been thrown down.p>
