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.
