NowG1161 when they had passed throughG1353 AmphipolisG295 andG2532 ApolloniaG624, they cameG2064 toG1519 ThessalonicaG2332, whereG3699 wasG2258 a synagogueG4864 of the JewsG2453:
AndG1161 PaulG3972, asG2596 his manner wasG1486, went inG1525 untoG4314 themG846, andG2532+G1909 threeG5140 sabbathG4521 days reasonedG1256 with themG846 out ofG575 the scripturesG1124,
OpeningG1272 andG2532 allegingG3908, thatG3754 ChristG5547 must needsG1163 have sufferedG3958, andG2532 risen againG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498; andG2532 thatG3754 thisG3778 JesusG2424, whomG3739 IG1473 preachG2605 unto youG5213, isG2076 ChristG5547. {whom…: or, whom, said he, I preach}
AndG2532 someG5100 ofG1537 themG846 believedG3982, andG2532 consortedG4345 with PaulG3972 andG2532 SilasG4609; andG5037 of the devoutG4576 GreeksG1672 a greatG4183 multitudeG4128, andG5037 of the chiefG4413 womenG1135 notG3756 a fewG3641.
ButG1161 the JewsG2453 which believed notG544, moved with envyG2206+G2532, took unto themG4355 certainG5100 lewdG4190 fellowsG435 of the baser sortG60, andG2532 gathered a companyG3792, and set allG2350 the cityG4172 on an uproarG2350, andG5037 assaultedG2186 the houseG3614 of JasonG2394, and soughtG2212 to bringG71 themG846 outG1519 to the peopleG1218.
AndG1161 when they foundG2147 themG846 notG3361, they drewG4951 JasonG2394 andG2532 certainG5100 brethrenG80 untoG1909 the rulers of the cityG4173, cryingG994+G3754, TheseG3778 that have turnedG387 the worldG3625 upside downG387 are comeG3918 hitherG1759 alsoG2532;
WhomG3739 JasonG2394 hath receivedG5264: andG2532 theseG3778 allG3956 doG4238 contraryG561 to the decreesG1378 of CaesarG2541, sayingG3004 that there isG1511 anotherG2087 kingG935, one JesusG2424.
AndG1161 they troubledG5015 the peopleG3793 andG2532 the rulers of the cityG4173, when they heardG191 these thingsG5023.
AndG2532 when they had takenG2983 securityG2425 ofG3844 JasonG2394, andG2532 of the otherG3062, they letG630 themG846 goG630.
AndG1161 the brethrenG80 immediatelyG2112 sent awayG1599+G5037 PaulG3972 andG2532 SilasG4609 byG1223 nightG3571 untoG1519 BereaG960: whoG3748 comingG3854 thither wentG549 intoG1519 the synagogueG4864 of the JewsG2453.
TheseG3778 wereG2258 more nobleG2104 than those inG1722 ThessalonicaG2332, in that theyG3748 receivedG1209 the wordG3056 withG3326 allG3956 readiness of mindG4288, and searchedG350 the scripturesG1124 dailyG2250+G2596, whetherG1487 those thingsG5023 wereG2192 soG3779.
ThereforeG3767+G3303 manyG4183 ofG1537 themG846 believedG4100; alsoG2532 of honourableG2158 womenG1135 whichG3588 were GreeksG1674, andG2532 of menG435, notG3756 a fewG3641.
ButG1161 whenG5613 the JewsG2453 ofG575 ThessalonicaG2332 had knowledgeG1097 thatG3754+G2532 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 was preachedG2605 ofG5259 PaulG3972 atG1722 BereaG960, they cameG2064 thither alsoG2546, and stirred upG4531 the peopleG3793.
AndG1161 thenG5119 immediatelyG2112 the brethrenG80 sent awayG1821 PaulG3972 to goG4198 as it wereG5613 toG1909 the seaG2281: butG1161+G5037 SilasG4609 andG2532 TimotheusG5095 abodeG5278 thereG1563 stillG5278.
AndG1161 they that conductedG2525 PaulG3972 broughtG71 himG846 untoG2193 AthensG116: andG2532 receivingG2983 a commandmentG1785 untoG4314 SilasG4609 andG2532 TimotheusG5095 for toG2443 comeG2064 toG4314 himG846 with all speedG5613+G5033, they departedG1826.
NowG1161 while PaulG3972 waited forG1551 themG846 atG1722 AthensG116, hisG846 spiritG4151 was stirredG3947 inG1722 himG846, when he sawG2334 the cityG4172 wholly givenG5607 to idolatryG2712. {wholly…: or, full of idols}
ThereforeG3767+G3303 disputed heG1256 inG1722 the synagogueG4864 with the JewsG2453, andG2532 with the devout personsG4576, andG2532 inG1722 the marketG58 dailyG2596+G3956+G2250 withG4314 them that met with himG3909.
ThenG1161 certainG5100 philosophersG5386 of the EpicureansG1946, andG2532 of the StoicksG4770, encounteredG4820 himG846. AndG2532 someG5100 saidG3004, WhatG5101 willG302+G2309 thisG3778 babblerG4691 sayG3004+G1161? other some, He seemethG1380 to beG1511 a setter forthG2604 of strangeG3581 godsG1140: becauseG3754 he preachedG2097 unto themG846 JesusG2424, andG2532 the resurrectionG386. {babbler: or, base fellow}
AndG5037 they tookG1949 himG846, and brought himG71 untoG1909 AreopagusG697, sayingG3004, MayG1410 we knowG1097 whatG5101 thisG3778 newG2537 doctrineG1322, whereofG5259 thouG4675 speakestG2980, is? {Areopagus: or, Mars-hill: it was the highest court in Athens}
ForG1063 thou bringestG1533 certainG5100 strange thingsG3579 toG1519 ourG2257 earsG189: we wouldG1014 knowG1097 thereforeG3767 whatG5101 these thingsG5023 meanG302+G2309+G1511.
(ForG1161 allG3956 the AtheniansG117 andG2532 strangersG3581 whichG3588 were thereG1927 spent their timeG2119 inG1519 nothingG3762 elseG2087, but eitherG2228 to tellG3004, orG2532 to hearG191 someG5100 new thingG2537.)
ThenG1161 PaulG3972 stoodG2476 inG1722 the midstG3319 of Mars' hillG697, and saidG5346, Ye menG435 of AthensG117, I perceiveG2334 thatG5613 inG2596 all thingsG3956 yeG5209 are too superstitiousG1174. {Mars' hill: or, court of the Areopagites}
ForG1063 as I passed byG1330, andG2532 beheldG333 yourG5216 devotionsG4574+G2532, I foundG2147 an altarG1041 with thisG1722+G3739 inscriptionG1924, TO THE UNKNOWNG57 GODG2316. WhomG3739 thereforeG3767 ye ignorantlyG50 worshipG2151, himG5126 declareG2605 IG1473 unto youG5213. {devotions: or, gods that ye worship}
GodG2316 that madeG4160 the worldG2889 andG2532 all thingsG3956 thereinG1722+G846, seeing that heG3778 isG5225 LordG2962 of heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1093, dwellethG2730 notG3756 inG1722 templesG3485 made with handsG5499;
NeitherG3761 is worshippedG2323 withG5259 men'sG444 handsG5495, as though he neededG4326 any thingG5100, seeing heG846 givethG1325 to allG3956 lifeG2222, andG2532 breathG4157, andG2596 all thingsG3956;
AndG5037 hath madeG4160 ofG1537 oneG1520 bloodG129 allG3956 nationsG1484 of menG444 for to dwellG2730 onG1909 allG3956 the faceG4383 of the earthG1093, and hath determinedG3724 the timesG2540 before appointedG4384, andG2532 the boundsG3734 of theirG846 habitationG2733;
That they should seekG2212 the LordG2962, ifG1487 haplyG686 they might feelG5584 after himG846, andG2532 find himG2147, thoughG2544 he beG5225 notG3756 farG3112 fromG575 everyG1538 oneG1520 of usG2257:
ForG1063 inG1722 himG846 we liveG2198, andG2532 moveG2795, andG2532 have our beingG2070; asG5613 certainG5100 alsoG2532 of yourG5209 ownG2596 poetsG4163 have saidG2046, ForG1063 we areG2070 alsoG2532 hisG5120 offspringG1085.
Forasmuch thenG3767 as we areG5225 the offspringG1085 of GodG2316, we oughtG3784 notG3756 to thinkG3543 that the GodheadG2304 isG1511 likeG3664 unto goldG5557, orG2228 silverG696, orG2228 stoneG3037, gravenG5480 by artG5078 andG2532 man'sG444 deviceG1761.
AndG3303+G3767 the timesG5550 of this ignoranceG52 GodG2316 winked atG5237; but nowG3569 commandethG3853 allG3956 menG444 every whereG3837 to repentG3340:
BecauseG1360 he hath appointedG2476 a dayG2250, inG1722 the whichG3739 he willG3195 judgeG2919 the worldG3625 inG1722 righteousnessG1343 byG1722 that manG435 whomG3739 he hath ordainedG3724; whereof he hath givenG3930 assuranceG4102 unto allG3956 men, in that he hath raisedG450 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498. {hath given…: or, offered faith}
AndG1161 when they heardG191 of the resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498, someG3303 mockedG5512: andG1161 others saidG2036, We will hearG191 theeG4675 againG3825 ofG4012 thisG5127 matter.
SoG2532+G3779 PaulG3972 departedG1831 fromG1537 amongG3319 themG846.
HowbeitG1161 certainG5100 menG435 claveG2853 unto himG846, and believedG4100: amongG1722 the whichG3739+G2532 was DionysiusG1354 the AreopagiteG698, andG2532 a womanG1135 namedG3686 DamarisG1152, andG2532 othersG2087 withG4862 themG846.

Can a manH1397 be profitableH5532 unto GodH410, asH3588 he that is wiseH7919 may be profitableH5532 unto himself? {as he…: or, if he may be profitable, doth his good success depend thereon?}

NeverthelessG2544+G2532 he leftG863 notG3756 himselfG1438 without witnessG267, in that he did goodG15, and gaveG1325 usG2254 rainG5205 from heavenG3771, andG2532 fruitfulG2593 seasonsG2540, fillingG1705 ourG2257 heartsG2588 with foodG5160 andG2532 gladnessG2167.

O my soul, thou hast saidH559 unto the LORDH3068, Thou art my LordH136: my goodnessH2896 extendeth not to thee;
And they fellH5307 upon their facesH6440, and saidH559, O GodH410, the GodH430 of the spiritsH7307 of all fleshH1320, shall oneH259 manH376 sinH2398, and wilt thou be wrothH7107 with all the congregationH5712?

For I spakeH1696 not unto your fathersH1, nor commandedH6680 them in the dayH3117 that I brought them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, concerningH1697 burnt offeringsH5930 or sacrificesH2077: {concerning: Heb. concerning the matter of}

These waitH7663 all upon thee; that thou mayest giveH5414 them their meatH400 in due seasonH6256.
That thou givestH5414 them they gatherH3950: thou openestH6605 thine handH3027, they are filledH7646 with goodH2896.
Thou hidestH5641 thy faceH6440, they are troubledH926: thou takest awayH622 their breathH7307, they dieH1478, and returnH7725 to their dustH6083.
Thou sendestH7971 forth thy spiritH7307, they are createdH1254: and thou renewestH2318 the faceH6440 of the earthH127.
Thus saithH559 GodH410 the LORDH3068, he that createdH1254 the heavensH8064, and stretched them outH5186; he that spread forthH7554 the earthH776, and that which cometh outH6631 of it; he that givethH5414 breathH5397 unto the peopleH5971 upon it, and spiritH7307 to them that walkH1980 therein:

The burdenH4853 of the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 for IsraelH3478, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, which stretchethH5186 forth the heavensH8064, and layeth the foundationH3245 of the earthH776, and formethH3335 the spiritH7307 of manH120 withinH7130 him.
