20 But when the believers gathered round him, he got up and went back into the town. The next day he and Barnabas went to Derbe.
21 Paul and Barnabas preached the Good News in Derbe and won many disciples. Then they went back to Lystra, to Iconium, and on to Antioch in Pisidia.
22 They strengthened the believers and encouraged them to remain true to the faith. “We must pass through many troubles to enter the Kingdom of God,” they taught.
23 In each church they appointed elders, and with prayers and fasting they commended them to the Lord, in whom they had put their trust.
24 After going through the territory of Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.
25 There they preached the message in Perga and then went to Attalia,
26 and from there they sailed back to Antioch, the place where they had been commended to the care of God's grace for the work they had now completed.
