Acts 16:1-3 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

1. Paul came also to Derbe and to Lystra. And a disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer, but his father was a Greek,

2. and he was well spoken of by the brethren who were in Lystra and Iconium.

3. Paul wanted this man to go with him; and he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
