18  And ye shall be brought before governors and ^akings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.

  15  But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and ^ekings, and the children of Israel:

  23  That the fulness of my gospel might be proclaimed by the weak and the simple unto the ends of the world, and before kings and ^frulers.

  3  This proclamation shall be made to all the ^akings of the world, to the four corners thereof, to the honorable president-elect, and the high-minded governors of the nation in which you live, and to all the nations of the earth scattered abroad.

  16  For I am not ^aashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
