Acts 9:35

²¹The hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.

¹⁶They lived in Gilead in Bashan and in its towns, and in all the pasture lands of Sharon as far as their borders.

⁴²This became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.

²It will blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing. Lebanon’s glory will be given to it, the excellence of Carmel and Sharon. They will see the LORD’s glory, the excellence of our God.

¹⁶But whenever someone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.

²⁹Over the herds that fed in Sharon was Shitrai the Sharonite. Over the herds that were in the valleys was Shaphat the son of Adlai.

²⁷All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the LORD. All the relatives of the nations shall worship before you.

¹²By the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were done among the people. They were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch. ¹³None of the rest dared to join them; however, the people honored them. ¹⁴More believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women.

^20[+] So the word of the Lord was growing and becoming mighty.

⁹For they themselves report concerning us what kind of a reception we had from you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve a living and true God, ¹⁰and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead: Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath to come.
