Timothy Joins Paul and Silas

Acts 16

¹ Paul ₁ came also to Derbe and to Lystra. A disciple was there, named _z Timothy, _a the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer, but his father was a Greek. ² He was well spoken of by _b the brothers ₂ at Lystra and Iconium. ³ Paul wanted Timothy to accompany him, and he _c took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those places, for they all knew that his father was a Greek. ⁴ As they went on their way through the cities, they delivered to them for observance _d the decisions _e that had been reached by _f the apostles and elders who were in Jerusalem. ⁵ _g So the churches were strengthened in _h the faith, and they increased in numbers _i daily.
