5 And when a violent attempt was made by the Gentiles and the Jews, with their rulers, to make an attack on them and have them stoned,
6 Having got news of it, they went in flight to the towns of Lycaonia, Lystra, and Derbe, and the country round about:
7 And went on preaching the good news there.
8 And at Lystra there was a certain man, who from birth had been without the use of his feet, never having had the power of walking.
