Acts 13:47 in Context — Acts 13
45 Mas los Judíos, visto el gentío, llenáronse de celo, y se oponían á lo que Pablo decía, contradiciendo y blasfemando.
46 Entonces Pablo y Bernabé, usando de libertad, dijeron: A vosotros á la verdad era menester que se os hablase la palabra de Dios; mas pues que la desecháis, y os juzgáis indignos de la vida eterna, he aquí, nos volvemos á los Gentiles.
47 Porque así nos ha mandado el Señor, [diciendo]: Te he puesto para luz de los Gentiles, para que seas salud hasta lo postrero de la tierra.
48 Y los Gentiles oyendo esto, fueron gozosos, y glorificaban la palabra del Señor: y creyeron todos los que estaban ordenados para vida eterna.
49 Y la palabra del Señor era sembrada por toda aquella provincia.
