Pure Cambridge Edition selected
¶ From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
¶ And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.
And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.
And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.
And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.
And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.
¶ And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.
And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.

    15But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:

    16For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name’s sake.

    17And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.

    18And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.

    19And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.

    20And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

    21But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests?

    22But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ.

    23¶ And after that many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill him:

    24But their laying await was known of Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him.

    25Then the disciples took him by night, and let him down by the wall in a basket.

    26And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to join himself to the disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and believed not that he was a disciple.

    27But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared unto them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.

    28And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem.

    29And he spake boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Grecians: but they went about to slay him.

    30Which when the brethren knew, they brought him down to Cæsarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.

    31Then had the churches rest throughout all Judæa and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.

    33And there he found a certain man named Æneas, which had kept his bed eight years, and was sick of the palsy.

    35And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron saw him, and turned to the Lord.

    36¶ Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.

    37And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.

    38And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them.

    39Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.

    40But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
