AndG2532 whenG3753 the bloodG129 of thyG4675 martyrG3144 StephenG4736 was shedG1632, IG846 alsoG2532 wasG2252 standing byG2186, andG2532 consentingG4909 unto hisG846 deathG336, andG2532 keptG5442 the raimentG2440 of them that slewG337 himG846.
They shall putG4160 youG5209 out of the synagoguesG656: yeaG235, the timeG5610 comethG2064, thatG2443 whosoeverG3956 killethG615 youG5209 will thinkG1380 that he doethG4374 GodG2316 serviceG2999.
AndG1161 SaulG4569, yetG2089 breathing outG1709 threateningsG547 andG2532 slaughterG5408 againstG1519 the disciplesG3101 of the LordG2962, wentG4334 unto the high priestG749,
And desiredG154 ofG3844 himG846 lettersG1992 toG1519 DamascusG1154 toG4314 the synagoguesG4864, thatG3704 ifG1437 he foundG2147 anyG5100 of this wayG3598, whetherG5037 they wereG5607 menG435 orG2532 womenG1135, he might bring themG71 boundG1210 untoG1519 JerusalemG2419. {of this way: Gr. of the way}
NeitherG3761 went I upG424 toG1519 JerusalemG2414 toG4314 them which were apostlesG652 beforeG4253 meG1700; butG235 I wentG565 intoG1519 ArabiaG688, andG2532 returnedG5290 againG3825 untoG1519 DamascusG1154.
WhoG5101 isG2076 he that overcomethG3528 the worldG2889, butG1508 he that believethG4100 thatG3754 JesusG2424 isG2076 the SonG5207 of GodG2316?
He that believethG4100 onG1519 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 hathG2192 the witnessG3141 inG1722 himselfG1438: he that believethG4100 notG3361 GodG2316 hath madeG4160 himG846 a liarG5583; becauseG3754 he believethG4100 notG3756+G1519 the recordG3141 thatG3739 GodG2316 gaveG3140 ofG4012 hisG846 SonG5207.
TillG3360 we allG3956 comeG2658 inG1519 the unityG1775 of the faithG4102, andG2532 of the knowledgeG1922 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316, untoG1519 a perfectG5046 manG435, untoG1519 the measureG3358 of the statureG2244 of the fulnessG4138 of ChristG5547: {in: or, into} {stature: or, age}
ThenG1899 afterG3326 threeG5140 yearsG2094 I went upG424 toG1519 JerusalemG2414 to seeG2477 PeterG4074, andG2532 abodeG1961 withG4314 himG846 fifteenG1178 daysG2250. {went up: or, returned}
AndG1161 when SaulG4569 was comeG3854 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, he assayedG3987 to join himselfG2853 to the disciplesG3101: butG2532 they wereG5399 allG3956 afraidG5399 of himG846, and believedG4100 notG3361 thatG3754 he wasG2076 a discipleG3101.
AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that, when IG3427 was come againG5290 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, evenG2532 while IG3450 prayedG4336 inG1722 the templeG2411, IG3165 wasG1096 inG1722 a tranceG1611;
AndG2532 sawG1492 himG846 sayingG3004 unto meG3427, Make hasteG4692, andG2532 get theeG1831 quicklyG5034+G1722 out ofG1537 JerusalemG2419: forG1360 they willG3858 notG3756 receiveG3858 thyG4675 testimonyG3141 concerningG4012 meG1700.
And IG2504 saidG2036, LordG2962, theyG846 knowG1987 thatG3754 IG1473 imprisonedG2252+G5439 andG2532 beatG1194 in everyG2596 synagogueG4864 them that believedG4100 onG1909 theeG4571:
AndG2532 whenG3753 the bloodG129 of thyG4675 martyrG3144 StephenG4736 was shedG1632, IG846 alsoG2532 wasG2252 standing byG2186, andG2532 consentingG4909 unto hisG846 deathG336, andG2532 keptG5442 the raimentG2440 of them that slewG337 himG846.
AndG2532 he saidG2036 untoG4314 meG3165, DepartG4198: forG3754 IG1473 will sendG1821 theeG4571 far henceG3112 untoG1519 the GentilesG1484.
AfterwardsG1899 I cameG2064 intoG1519 the regionsG2824 of SyriaG4947 andG2532 CiliciaG2791;
AndG1161 someG5100 ofG1537 themG846 wereG2258 menG435 of CyprusG2953 andG2532 CyreneG2956, whichG3748, when they were comeG1525 toG1519 AntiochG490, spakeG2980 untoG4314 the GreciansG1675, preachingG2097 the LordG2962 JesusG2424.
ThenG1161 the disciplesG3101, everyG1538 manG846 according toG2531 his abilityG2141+G5100, determinedG3724 to sendG3992 reliefG1248 untoG1519 the brethrenG80 which dweltG2730 inG1722 JudaeaG2449:
WhichG3739 alsoG2532 they didG4160, and sent itG649 toG4314 the eldersG4245 byG1223 the handsG5495 of BarnabasG921 andG2532 SaulG4569.
AndG1161 BarnabasG921 andG2532 SaulG4569 returnedG5290 fromG1537 JerusalemG2419, when they had fulfilledG4137 their ministryG1248, andG2532 took with themG4838 JohnG2491, whose surname wasG1941 MarkG3138. {ministry: or, charge}
NowG1161 there wereG2258 inG2596 the churchG1577 that wasG5607 atG1722 AntiochG490 certainG5100 prophetsG4396 andG2532 teachersG1320; asG5037 BarnabasG921, andG2532 SimeonG4826 that was calledG2564 NigerG3526, andG2532 LuciusG3066 of CyreneG2956, andG5037 ManaenG3127, which had been brought upG4939 with HerodG2264 the tetrarchG5076, andG2532 SaulG4569. {which…: or, Herod's foster brother}
AsG1161 theyG846 ministeredG3008 to the LordG2962, andG2532 fastedG3522, the HolyG40 GhostG4151 saidG2036+G1211, SeparateG873 meG3427+G5037 BarnabasG921 andG2532 SaulG4569 forG1519 the workG2041 whereuntoG3739 I have calledG4341 themG846.
AndG5119 when they had fastedG3522 andG2532 prayedG4336, andG2532 laidG2007 their handsG5495 onG2007 themG846, they sent them awayG630.
SoG3303+G3767 theyG3778, being sent forthG1599 byG5259 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, departedG2718 untoG1519 SeleuciaG4581; and fromG1564 thenceG5037 they sailedG636 toG1519 CyprusG2954.
AndG2532 when they wereG1096 atG1722 SalamisG4529, they preachedG2605 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864 of the JewsG2453: andG1161 they hadG2192 alsoG2532 JohnG2491 to their ministerG5257.
AndG1161 when they had gone throughG1330 the isleG3520 untoG891 PaphosG3974, they foundG2147 a certainG5100 sorcererG3097, a false prophetG5578, a JewG2453, whoseG3739 nameG3686 was BarjesusG919:
WhichG3739 wasG2258 withG4862 the deputy of the countryG446, SergiusG4588 PaulusG3972, a prudentG4908 manG435; whoG3778 calledG4341 for BarnabasG921 andG2532 SaulG4569, and desiredG1934 to hearG191 the wordG3056 of GodG2316.
ButG1161 ElymasG1681 the sorcererG3097 (forG1063 soG3779 is hisG846 nameG3686 by interpretationG3177) withstoodG436 themG846, seekingG2212 to turn awayG1294 the deputyG446 fromG575 the faithG4102.
ThenG1161 SaulG4569, (whoG3588 alsoG2532 is called PaulG3972,) filled withG4130 the HolyG40 GhostG4151+G2532, set his eyesG816 onG1519 himG846,
And saidG2036, OG5599 fullG4134 of allG3956 subtiltyG1388 andG2532 allG3956 mischiefG4468, thou childG5207 of the devilG1228, thou enemyG2190 of allG3956 righteousnessG1343, wilt thouG3973 notG3756 ceaseG3973 to pervertG1294 the rightG2117 waysG3598 of the LordG2962?
AndG2532 nowG3568, beholdG2400, the handG5495 of the LordG2962 is uponG1909 theeG4571, andG2532 thou shalt beG2071 blindG5185, notG3361 seeingG991 the sunG2246 forG891 a seasonG2540. AndG1161 immediatelyG3916 there fellG1968 onG1909 himG846 a mistG887 andG2532 a darknessG4655; andG2532 he went aboutG4013 seekingG2212 some to lead him by the handG5497.
ThenG5119 the deputyG446, when he sawG1492 what was doneG1096, believedG4100, being astonishedG1605 atG1909 the doctrineG1322 of the LordG2962.
NowG1161 when PaulG3972 and his companyG4012 loosedG321 fromG575 PaphosG3974, they cameG2064 toG1519 PergaG4011 in PamphyliaG3828: andG1161 JohnG2491 departingG672 fromG575 themG846 returnedG5290 toG1519 JerusalemG2414.
ButG1161 when theyG846 departedG1330 fromG575 PergaG4011, they cameG3854 toG1519 AntiochG490 in PisidiaG4099, andG2532 wentG1525 intoG1519 the synagogueG4864 on the sabbathG4521 dayG2250, and sat downG2523.
AndG1161 afterG3326 the readingG320 of the lawG3551 andG2532 the prophetsG4396 the rulers of the synagogueG752 sentG649 untoG4314 themG846, sayingG3004, Ye menG435 and brethrenG80, ifG1487 ye haveG2076+G1722+G5213 any wordG3056 of exhortationG3874 forG4314 the peopleG2992, say onG3004.
ThenG1161 PaulG3972 stood upG450, andG2532 beckoningG2678 with his handG5495 saidG2036, MenG435 of IsraelG2475, andG2532 ye that fearG5399 GodG2316, give audienceG191.
The GodG2316 of thisG5127 peopleG2992 of IsraelG2474 choseG1586 ourG2257 fathersG3962, andG2532 exaltedG5312 the peopleG2992 whenG1722 they dwelt as strangersG3940 inG1722 the landG1093 of EgyptG125, andG2532 withG3326 an highG5308 armG1023 brought heG1806 themG846 out ofG1537 itG846.
AndG2532 aboutG5613 the timeG5550 of forty yearsG5063 suffered heG5159 theirG846 mannersG5159 inG1722 the wildernessG2048. {suffered…: or bore, or fed them as a nurse beareth, or feedeth, her child}
AndG2532 when he had destroyedG2507 sevenG2033 nationsG1484 inG1722 the landG1093 of ChanaanG5477, he dividedG2624 theirG846 landG1093 to themG846 by lotG2624.
AndG2532 afterG3326 thatG5023 he gaveG1325 unto them judgesG2923 aboutG5613 the space of four hundredG5071 andG2532 fiftyG4004 yearsG2094, untilG2193 SamuelG4545 the prophetG4396.
And afterwardG2547 they desiredG154 a kingG935: andG2532 GodG2316 gaveG1325 unto themG846 SaulG4549 the sonG5207 of CisG2797, a manG435 ofG1537 the tribeG5443 of BenjaminG958, by the space of fortyG5062 yearsG2094.
AndG2532 when he had removedG3179 himG846, he raised upG1453 unto themG846 DavidG1138 to beG1519 their kingG935; to whomG3739 alsoG2532 he gave testimonyG3140, and saidG2036, I have foundG2147 DavidG1138 the son of JesseG2421, a manG435 afterG2596 mine ownG3450 heartG2588, whichG3739 shall fulfilG4160 allG3956 myG3450 willG2307.
OfG575 this man'sG5127 seedG4690 hathG1453 GodG2316 accordingG2596 to his promiseG1860 raisedG1453 unto IsraelG2474 a SaviourG4990, JesusG2424:
When JohnG2491 had first preachedG4296 beforeG4253 hisG846 comingG4383+G1529 the baptismG908 of repentanceG3341 to allG3956 the peopleG2992 of IsraelG2474.
AndG1161 asG5613 JohnG2491 fulfilledG4137 his courseG1408, he saidG3004, WhomG5101 think yeG5282 that IG3165 amG1511? IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 he. ButG235, beholdG2400, there cometh oneG2064 afterG3326 meG1691, whoseG3739 shoesG5266 of his feetG4228 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG514 to looseG3089.
MenG435 and brethrenG80, childrenG5207 of the stockG1085 of AbrahamG11, andG2532 whosoever amongG1722 youG5213 fearethG5399 GodG2316, to youG5213 isG649 the wordG3056 of thisG5026 salvationG4991 sentG649.
ForG1063 they that dwellG2730 atG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 theirG846 rulersG758, because they knewG50 himG5126 notG50, nor yetG2532 the voicesG5456 of the prophetsG4396 whichG3588 are readG314+G2596 everyG3956 sabbath dayG4521, they have fulfilledG4137 them in condemningG2919 him.
AndG2532 though they foundG2147 noG3367 causeG156 of deathG2288 in him, yet desired theyG154 PilateG4091 that heG846 should be slainG337.
AndG1161 whenG5613 they had fulfilledG5055 allG537 that was writtenG1125 ofG4012 himG846, they took him downG2507 fromG575 the treeG3586, and laidG5087 him inG1519 a sepulchreG3419.
ButG1161 GodG2316 raisedG1453 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498:
And heG3739 was seenG3700 manyG1909+G4119 daysG2250 of them which came up withG4872 himG846 fromG575 GalileeG1056 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, whoG3748 areG1526 hisG846 witnessesG3144 untoG4314 the peopleG2992.
AndG2532 weG2249 declareG2097 unto youG5209 glad tidingsG2097, how thatG3754 the promiseG1860 which was madeG1096 untoG4314 the fathersG3962,
GodG2316 hath fulfilledG1603 the sameG5026 unto usG2254 theirG846 childrenG5043, in that he hath raised upG450 JesusG2424 againG450; asG5613 it isG1125 alsoG2532 writtenG1125 inG1722 the secondG1208 psalmG5568, ThouG4771 artG1488 myG3450 SonG5207, this dayG4594 have IG1473 begottenG1080 theeG4571.
AndG1161 as concerning thatG3754 he raisedG450 himG846 upG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498, now no moreG3371 toG3195 returnG5290 toG1519 corruptionG1312, he saidG2046 on this wiseG3779+G3754, I will giveG1325 youG5213 the sureG4103 merciesG3741 of DavidG1138. {mercies: Gr. holy, or just things: which word the Septuagint in many places, uses for that which is in the Hebrew, mercies}
WhereforeG1352 he saithG3004 alsoG2532 inG1722 anotherG2087 psalm, Thou shaltG1325 notG3756 sufferG1325 thineG4675 Holy OneG3741 to seeG1492 corruptionG1312.
ForG1063+G3303 DavidG1138, after he had servedG5256 his ownG2398 generationG1074 by the willG1012 of GodG2316, fell on sleepG2837, andG2532 was laidG4369 untoG4314 hisG846 fathersG3962, andG2532 sawG1492 corruptionG1312: {after…: or, after he had in his own age served the will of God}
ButG1161 he, whomG3739 GodG2316 raised againG1453, sawG1492 noG3756 corruptionG1312.
Be itG2077 knownG1110 unto youG5213 thereforeG3767, menG435 and brethrenG80, thatG3754 throughG1223 this manG5127 is preachedG2605 unto youG5213 the forgivenessG859 of sinsG266:
AndG2532 byG1722 himG5129 allG3956 that believeG4100 are justifiedG1344 fromG575 all thingsG3956, from whichG3739 ye couldG1410 notG3756 be justifiedG1344 byG1722 the lawG3551 of MosesG3475.
BewareG991 thereforeG3767, lest thatG3361 comeG1904 uponG1909 youG5209, which is spoken ofG2046 inG1722 the prophetsG4396;
BeholdG1492, ye despisersG2707, andG2532 wonderG2296, andG2532 perishG853: forG3754 IG1473 workG2038 a workG2041 inG1722 yourG5216 daysG2250, a workG2041 whichG3739 ye shallG4100 in no wiseG3364 believeG4100, thoughG1437 a manG5100 declare itG1555 unto youG5213.
AndG1161 when the JewsG2453 were goneG1826 out ofG1537 the synagogueG4864, the GentilesG1484 besoughtG3870 that theseG5023 wordsG4487 might be preachedG2980 to themG846+G1519 the nextG3342 sabbathG4521. {the next…: Gr. in the week between, or, in the sabbath between}
NowG1161 when the congregationG4864 was broken upG3089, manyG4183 of the JewsG2453 andG2532 religiousG4576 proselytesG4339 followedG190 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921: whoG3748, speakingG4354 to themG846, persuadedG3982 themG846 to continueG1961 in the graceG5485 of GodG2316.
AndG1161 the nextG2064 sabbath dayG4521 cameG4863 almostG4975 the wholeG3956 cityG4172 togetherG4863 to hearG191 the wordG3056 of GodG2316.
ButG1161 when the JewsG2453 sawG1492 the multitudesG3793, they were filledG4130 with envyG2205, andG2532 spake againstG483 those things which were spokenG3004 byG5259 PaulG3972, contradictingG483 andG2532 blasphemingG987.
ThenG1161 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921 waxed boldG3955, and saidG2036, It wasG2258 necessaryG316 that the wordG3056 of GodG2316 shouldG2980 firstG4412 have been spokenG2980 to youG5213: butG1161 seeingG1894 ye putG683 itG846 from youG683, andG2532 judgeG2919 yourselvesG1438 unworthyG3756+G514 of everlastingG166 lifeG2222, loG2400, we turnG4762 toG1519 the GentilesG1484.
ForG1063 soG3779 hathG1781 the LordG2962 commandedG1781 usG2254, saying, I have setG5087 theeG4571 to beG1519 a lightG5457 of the GentilesG1484, that thouG4571 shouldest beG1511 forG1519 salvationG4991 untoG2193 the endsG2078 of the earthG1093.
AndG1161 when the GentilesG1484 heard thisG191, they were gladG5463, andG2532 glorifiedG1392 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962: andG2532 as many asG3745 wereG2258 ordainedG5021 toG1519 eternalG166 lifeG2222 believedG4100.
AndG1161 the wordG3056 of the LordG2962 was publishedG1308 throughoutG1223 allG3650 the regionG5561.
ButG1161 the JewsG2453 stirred upG3951 the devoutG4576 andG2532 honourableG2158 womenG1135, andG2532 the chief menG4413 of the cityG4172, andG2532 raisedG1892 persecutionG1375 againstG1909 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921, andG2532 expelledG1544 themG846 out ofG575 theirG846 coastsG3725.
ButG1161 they shook offG1621 the dustG2868 of theirG846 feetG4228 againstG1909 themG846, and cameG2064 untoG1519 IconiumG2430.
AndG1161 the disciplesG3101 were filled withG4137 joyG5479, andG2532 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
It isG4851 notG3756 expedientG4851 for meG3427 doubtlessG1211 to gloryG2744+G1063. I will comeG2064 toG1519 visionsG3701 andG2532 revelationsG602 of the LordG2962. {I will come: Gr. For I will come}
I knewG1492 a manG444 inG1722 ChristG5547 aboveG4253 fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 agoG4253, (whetherG1535 inG1722 the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492; or whetherG1535 outG1622 of the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492: GodG2316 knowethG1492;) such an oneG5108 caught upG726 toG2193 the thirdG5154 heavenG3772.
AndG2532 I knewG1492 suchG5108 a manG444, (whetherG1535 inG1722 the bodyG4983, orG1535 outG1622 of the bodyG4983, I cannotG3756 tellG1492: GodG2316 knowethG1492;)
How thatG3754 he was caught upG726 intoG1519 paradiseG3857, andG2532 heardG191 unspeakableG731 wordsG4487, whichG3739 it isG1832 notG3756 lawfulG1832 for a manG444 to utterG2980. {lawful: or, possible}
OfG5228 such an oneG5108 will I gloryG2744: yetG1161 ofG5228 myselfG1683 I willG2744 notG3756 gloryG2744, butG1508 inG1722 mineG3450 infirmitiesG769.
ForG1063 thoughG1437 I would desireG2309 to gloryG2744, I shallG2071 notG3756 beG2071 a foolG878; forG1063 I will sayG2046 the truthG225: butG1161 now I forbearG5339, lestG3361 any manG5100 should thinkG3049 ofG1519 meG1691 aboveG5228 that whichG3739 he seethG991 meG3165 to be, orG2228 that he hearethG191 ofG5100+G1537 meG1700.
AndG2532 lestG3363 I should be exalted above measureG5229 through the abundanceG5236 of the revelationsG602, there was givenG1325 to meG3427 a thornG4647 in the fleshG4561, the messengerG32 of SatanG4566 toG2443 buffetG2852 meG3165, lestG3363 I should be exalted above measureG5229.
ForG5228 this thingG5127 I besoughtG3870 the LordG2962 thriceG5151, thatG2443 it might departG868 fromG575 meG1700.
AndG2532 he saidG2046 unto meG3427, MyG3450 graceG5485 is sufficientG714 for theeG4671: forG1063 myG3450 strengthG1411 is made perfectG5048 inG1722 weaknessG769. Most gladlyG2236 thereforeG3767 will IG2744 ratherG3123 gloryG2744 inG1722 myG3450 infirmitiesG769, thatG2443 the powerG1411 of ChristG5547 may restG1981 uponG1909 meG1691.
ThereforeG1352 I take pleasureG2106 inG1722 infirmitiesG769, inG1722 reproachesG5196, inG1722 necessitiesG318, inG1722 persecutionsG1375, inG1722 distressesG4730 forG5228 Christ'sG5547 sakeG5228: forG1063 whenG3752 I am weakG770, thenG5119 amG1510 I strongG1415.
I am becomeG1096 a foolG878 in gloryingG2744; yeG5210 have compelledG315 meG3165: forG1063 IG1473 oughtG3784 to have been commendedG4921 ofG5259 youG5216: forG1063 in nothingG3762 am I behindG5302 the very chiefestG3029 apostlesG652+G5228, thoughG1499 I beG1510 nothingG3762.
TrulyG3303 the signsG4592 of an apostleG652 were wroughtG2716 amongG1722 youG5213 inG1722 allG3956 patienceG5281, inG1722 signsG4592, andG2532 wondersG5059, andG2532 mighty deedsG1411.
ForG1063 whatG5101 is itG2076 whereinG3739 ye were inferiorG2274 toG5228 otherG3062 churchesG1577, exceptG1508 it be thatG3754 IG1473 myselfG846 wasG2655 notG3756 burdensomeG2655 to youG5216? forgiveG5483 meG3427 thisG5026 wrongG93.
BeholdG2400, the third timeG5154 I amG2192 readyG2093 to comeG2064 toG4314 youG5209; andG2532 I willG2655 notG3756 be burdensomeG2655 to youG5216: forG1063 I seekG2212 notG3756 yoursG5216, butG235 youG5209: forG1063 the childrenG5043 oughtG3784 notG3756 to lay upG2343 for the parentsG1118, butG235 the parentsG1118 for the childrenG5043.
AndG1161 IG1473 will very gladlyG2236 spendG1159 andG2532 be spentG1550 forG5228 youG5590+G5216; thoughG1499 the more abundantlyG4056 I loveG25 youG5209, the lessG2276 I be lovedG25. {for you: Gr. for your souls}
ButG1161 be it soG2077, IG1473 didG2599 notG3756 burdenG2599 youG5209: neverthelessG235, beingG5225 craftyG3835, I caughtG2983 youG5209 with guileG1388.
Did I make a gainG4122+G3361 of youG5209 byG1223 anyG5100 of themG846 whomG3739 I sentG649 untoG4314 youG5209?
I desiredG3870 TitusG5103, andG2532 with him I sentG4882 a brotherG80. DidG4122+G3387 TitusG5103 make a gainG4122 of youG5209? walked weG4043 notG3756 in the sameG846 spiritG4151? walked we notG3756 in the sameG846 stepsG2487?
AgainG3825, think yeG1380 thatG3754 we excuse ourselvesG626 unto youG5213? we speakG2980 beforeG2714 GodG2316 inG1722 ChristG5547: butG1161 we do all thingsG3956, dearly belovedG27, forG5228 yourG5216 edifyingG3619.
ForG1063 I fearG5399, lestG3381+G4458, when I comeG2064, I shallG2147 notG3756 findG2147 youG5209 such asG3634 I wouldG2309, and that IG2504 shall be foundG2147 unto youG5213 such asG3634 ye wouldG2309 notG3756: lestG3381+G4458 there be debatesG2054, envyingsG2205, wrathsG2372, strifesG2052, backbitingsG2636, whisperingsG5587, swellingsG5450, tumultsG181:
And lestG3361, when I comeG2064 againG3825, myG3450 GodG2316 will humbleG5013 meG3165 amongG4314 youG5209, andG2532 that I shall bewailG3996 manyG4183 whichG3588 have sinned alreadyG4258, andG2532 haveG3340 notG3361 repentedG3340 ofG1909 the uncleannessG167 andG2532 fornicationG4202 andG2532 lasciviousnessG766 whichG3739 they have committedG4238.
For by thee I have runH7323 through a troopH1416: by my GodH430 have I leaped overH1801 a wallH7791. {run: or, broken}
ButG1161 when theyG846 departedG1330 fromG575 PergaG4011, they cameG3854 toG1519 AntiochG490 in PisidiaG4099, andG2532 wentG1525 intoG1519 the synagogueG4864 on the sabbathG4521 dayG2250, and sat downG2523.
BewareG991 thereforeG3767, lest thatG3361 comeG1904 uponG1909 youG5209, which is spoken ofG2046 inG1722 the prophetsG4396;
BeholdG1492, ye despisersG2707, andG2532 wonderG2296, andG2532 perishG853: forG3754 IG1473 workG2038 a workG2041 inG1722 yourG5216 daysG2250, a workG2041 whichG3739 ye shallG4100 in no wiseG3364 believeG4100, thoughG1437 a manG5100 declare itG1555 unto youG5213.
AndG1161 when they were comeG3854, andG2532 had gatheredG4863 the churchG1577 togetherG4863, they rehearsedG312 allG3745 that GodG2316 had doneG4160 withG3326 themG846, andG2532 howG3754 he had openedG455 the doorG2374 of faithG4102 unto the GentilesG1484.
AndG1161 thereG1563 they abodeG1304 longG3756+G3641 timeG5550 withG4862 the disciplesG3101.
AndG2532 certain menG5100 which came downG2718 fromG575 JudaeaG2449 taughtG1321 the brethrenG80, and said,G3754 ExceptG3362 ye be circumcisedG4059 after the mannerG1485 of MosesG3475, ye cannotG3756+G1410 be savedG4982.
When thereforeG3767 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921 hadG1096 noG3756 smallG3641 dissensionG4714 andG2532 disputationG4803 withG4314 themG846, they determinedG5021 that PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921, andG2532 certainG5100 otherG243 ofG1537 themG846, should go upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 untoG4314 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 aboutG4012 thisG5127 questionG2213.
ThenG1899 fourteenG1180 yearsG2094 afterG1223 I went upG305 againG3825 toG1519 JerusalemG2414 withG3326 BarnabasG921, and tookG4838 TitusG5103 with meG4838 alsoG2532.
AndG1161 I went upG305 byG2596 revelationG602, andG2532 communicatedG394 unto themG846 that gospelG2098 whichG3739 I preachG2784 amongG1722 the GentilesG1484, butG1161 privatelyG2596+G2398 to them which were of reputationG1380, lest by any meansG3381+G4458 I should runG5143, orG2228 had runG5143, inG1519 vainG2756. {privately: or, severally}
ButG235 neitherG3761 TitusG5103, whoG3588 was withG4862 meG1698, beingG5607 a GreekG1672, was compelledG315 to be circumcisedG4059:
AndG1161 that because ofG1223 false brethrenG5569 unawares brought inG3920, whoG3748 came in privilyG3922 to spy outG2684 ourG2257 libertyG1657 whichG3739 we haveG2192 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424, thatG2443 they might bringG2615 usG2248 into bondageG2615:
To whomG3739 we gave placeG1502 by subjectionG5292, no, notG3761 forG4314 an hourG5610; thatG2443 the truthG225 of the gospelG2098 might continueG1265 withG4314 youG5209.
ButG1161 ofG575 these who seemedG1380 to beG1511 somewhatG5100, (whatsoeverG3697+G4218 they wereG2258, it makethG1308 noG3762 matterG1308 to meG3427: GodG2316 acceptethG2983 noG3756 man'sG444 personG4383:) forG1063 they who seemedG1380 to be somewhat in conference addedG4323 nothingG3762 to meG1698:
ButG235 contrariwiseG5121, when they sawG1492 thatG3754 the gospelG2098 of the uncircumcisionG203 was committed unto meG4100, asG2531 the gospel of the circumcisionG4061 was unto PeterG4074;
(ForG1063 he that wrought effectuallyG1754 in PeterG4074 toG1519 the apostleshipG651 of the circumcisionG4061, the sameG2532 was mightyG1754 in meG1698 towardG1519 the GentilesG1484:)
AndG2532 when JamesG2385+G2532, CephasG2786, andG2532 JohnG2491, whoG3588 seemedG1380 to beG1511 pillarsG4769, perceivedG1097 the graceG5485 that was givenG1325 unto meG3427, they gaveG1325 to meG1698 andG2532 BarnabasG921 the right handsG1188 of fellowshipG2842; thatG2443 weG2249 should go untoG1519 the heathenG1484, andG1161 theyG846 untoG1519 the circumcisionG4061.
OnlyG3440 they would thatG2443 we should rememberG3421 the poorG4434; the sameG846+G5124 whichG3739 IG4704 alsoG2532 was forwardG4704 to doG4160.
ButG1161 whenG3753 PeterG4074 was comeG2064 toG1519 AntiochG490, I withstoodG436 himG846 toG2596 the faceG4383, becauseG3754 he wasG2258 to be blamedG2607.
ForG1063 beforeG4253 that certainG5100 cameG2064 fromG575 JamesG2385, he did eatG4906 withG3326 the GentilesG1484: butG1161 whenG3753 they were comeG2064, he withdrewG5288 andG2532 separatedG873 himselfG1438, fearingG5399 them which were ofG1537 the circumcisionG4061.
AndG2532 the otherG3062 JewsG2453 dissembledG4942 likewiseG2532 with himG846; insomuchG5620 that BarnabasG921 alsoG2532 was carried awayG4879 with theirG846 dissimulationG5272.
ButG235 whenG3753 I sawG1492 thatG3754 they walkedG3716 notG3756 uprightlyG3716 according toG4314 the truthG225 of the gospelG2098, I saidG2036 unto PeterG4074 beforeG1715 them allG3956, IfG1487 thouG4771, beingG5225 a JewG2453, livestG2198 after the manner of GentilesG1483, andG2532 notG3756 as do the JewsG2452, whyG5101 compellest thouG315 the GentilesG1484 to live as do the JewsG2450?
WeG2249 who are JewsG2453 by natureG5449, andG2532 notG3756 sinnersG268 ofG1537 the GentilesG1484,
KnowingG1492 thatG3754 a manG444 isG1344 notG3756 justifiedG1344 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551, butG3362 byG1223 the faithG4102 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, evenG2532 weG2249 have believedG4100 inG1519 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, thatG2443 we might be justifiedG1344 byG1537 the faithG4102 of ChristG5547, andG2532 notG3756 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551: forG1360 byG1537 the worksG2041 of the lawG3551 shallG1344 noG3756+G3956 fleshG4561 be justifiedG1344.
ButG1161 ifG1487, while we seekG2212 to be justifiedG1344 byG1722 ChristG5547, weG2147 ourselvesG846 alsoG2532 are foundG2147 sinnersG268, is thereforeG687 ChristG5547 the ministerG1249 of sinG266? God forbidG3361+G1096.
ForG1063 ifG1487 I buildG3618 againG3825 the thingsG5023 whichG3739 I destroyedG2647, I makeG4921 myselfG1683 a transgressorG3848.
ForG1063 IG1473 throughG1223 the lawG3551 am deadG599 to the lawG3551, thatG2443 I might liveG2198 unto GodG2316.
I am crucifiedG4957 with ChristG5547: neverthelessG1161 I liveG2198; yet notG3765 IG1473, butG1161 ChristG5547 livethG2198 inG1722 meG1698: andG1161 the life whichG3739 IG2198 nowG3568 liveG2198 inG1722 the fleshG4561 I liveG2198 byG1722 the faithG4102 of the SonG5207 of GodG2316, whoG3588 lovedG25 meG3165, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 meG1700.
I doG114 notG3756 frustrateG114 the graceG5485 of GodG2316: forG1063 ifG1487 righteousnessG1343 come byG1223 the lawG3551, thenG686 ChristG5547 is deadG599 in vainG1432.
ForG1063 I haveG2192 no manG3762 likemindedG2473, whoG3748 will naturallyG1104 careG3309 for yourG5216 stateG4012. {likeminded: or, so dear unto me}
ButG1161 ye knowG1097 the proofG1382 of himG846, thatG3754, asG5613 a sonG5043 with the fatherG3962, he hath servedG1398 withG4862 meG1698 inG1519 the gospelG2098.
AndG5037 on the sabbathG4521+G2250 we wentG1831 out ofG1854 the cityG4172 byG3844 a river sideG4215, whereG3757 prayerG4335 was wontG3543 to be madeG1511; andG2532 we sat downG2523, and spakeG2980 unto the womenG1135 which resortedG4905 thither. {sabbath: Gr. sabbath day}
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.
ForG1063 yeG5210, brethrenG80, becameG1096 followersG3402 of the churchesG1577 of GodG2316 whichG3588 inG1722 JudaeaG2449 areG5607 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424: forG3754 yeG5210 alsoG2532 have sufferedG3958 like thingsG5024 ofG5259 your ownG2398 countrymenG4853, evenG2532 asG2531 they haveG846 ofG5259 the JewsG2453:
Who bothG2532 killedG615 the LordG2962 JesusG2424, andG2532 their ownG2398 prophetsG4396, andG2532 have persecutedG1559 usG2248; andG2532 they pleaseG700 notG3361 GodG2316, andG2532 are contraryG1727 to allG3956 menG444: {persecuted us: or, chased us out}
ForbiddingG2967 usG2248 to speakG2980 to the GentilesG1484 thatG2443 they might be savedG4982, toG1519 fill upG378 theirG846 sinsG266 alwayG3842: forG1161 the wrathG3709 is comeG5348 uponG1909 themG846 toG1519 the uttermostG5056.
NotwithstandingG1161 the LordG2962 stoodG3936 with meG3427, andG2532 strengthenedG1743 meG3165; thatG2443 byG1223 meG1700 the preachingG2782 might be fully knownG4135, andG2532 that allG3956 the GentilesG1484 might hearG191: andG2532 I was deliveredG4506 out ofG1537 the mouthG4750 of the lionG3023.
AfterG3326 these thingsG5023 PaulG3972 departedG5563 fromG1537 AthensG116, and cameG2064 toG1519 CorinthG2882;
AndG2532 foundG2147 a certainG5100 JewG2453 namedG3686 AquilaG207, bornG1085 in PontusG4193, latelyG4373 comeG2064 fromG575 ItalyG2482, withG2532 hisG846 wifeG1135 PriscillaG4252; (because thatG1223 ClaudiusG2804 had commandedG1299 allG3956 JewsG2453 to departG5563 fromG1537 RomeG4516:) and cameG4334 unto themG846.
AndG2532 becauseG1223 he wasG1511 of the same craftG3673, he abodeG3306 withG3844 themG846, andG2532 wroughtG2038: forG1063 by their occupationG5078 they wereG2258 tentmakersG4635.
AndG1161 he reasonedG1256 inG1722 the synagogueG4864+G2596 everyG3956 sabbathG4521, andG5037 persuadedG3982 the JewsG2453 andG2532 the GreeksG1672.
AndG1161 whenG5613+G5037 SilasG4609 andG2532 TimotheusG5095 were comeG2718 fromG575 MacedoniaG3109, PaulG3972 was pressedG4912 in the spiritG4151, and testifiedG1263 to the JewsG2453 that JesusG2424 was ChristG5547. {was Christ: or, is the Christ}
AndG1161 when they opposedG498 themselvesG846, andG2532 blasphemedG987, he shookG1621 his raimentG2440, and saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, YourG5216 bloodG129 be uponG1909 yourG5216 own headsG2776; IG1473 am cleanG2513: fromG575 henceforthG3568 I will goG4198 untoG1519 the GentilesG1484.
AndG2532 he departedG3327 thenceG1564, and enteredG2064 intoG1519 a certainG5100 man's houseG3614, namedG3686 JustusG2459, one that worshippedG4576 GodG2316, whoseG3739 houseG3614 joined hardG4927+G2258 to the synagogueG4864.
AndG1161 CrispusG2921, the chief ruler of the synagogueG752, believedG4100 on the LordG2962 withG4862 allG3650 hisG846 houseG3624; andG2532 manyG4183 of the CorinthiansG2881 hearingG191 believedG4100, andG2532 were baptizedG907.
ThenG1161 spakeG2036 the LordG2962 to PaulG3972 inG1223 the nightG3571 byG1722 a visionG3705, BeG5399 notG3361 afraidG5399, butG235 speakG2980, andG2532 holdG4623 notG3361 thy peaceG4623:
ForG1360 IG1473 amG1510 withG3326 theeG4675, andG2532 no manG3762 shall set onG2007 theeG4671 to hurtG2559 theeG4571: forG1360 IG3427 haveG2076 muchG4183 peopleG2992 inG1722 thisG5026 cityG4172.
AndG5037 he continuedG2523 there a yearG1763 andG2532 sixG1803 monthsG3376, teachingG1321 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 amongG1722 themG846. {continued there: Gr. sat there}
AndG1161 when GallioG1058 was the deputyG445 of AchaiaG882, the JewsG2453 made insurrectionG2721 with one accord againstG3661 PaulG3972, andG2532 broughtG71 himG846 toG1909 the judgment seatG968,
SayingG3004+G3754, ThisG3778 fellow persuadethG374 menG444 to worshipG4576 GodG2316 contraryG3844 to the lawG3551.
AndG1161 when PaulG3972 was now aboutG3195 to openG455 his mouthG4750, GallioG1058 saidG2036 untoG4314 the JewsG2453, IfG1487+G3303+G3767 it wereG2258 aG5100 matter of wrongG92 orG2228 wickedG4190 lewdnessG4467, OG5599 ye JewsG2453, reasonG2596+G3056 wouldG302 that I should bearG430 with youG5216:
ButG1161 ifG1487 it beG2076 a questionG2213 ofG4012 wordsG3056 andG2532 namesG3686, andG2532 ofG2596 yourG5209 lawG3551, look yeG3700+G846 to it; forG1063 IG1473 will beG1014+G1511 noG3756 judgeG2923 of suchG5130 matters.
AndG2532 he draveG556 themG846 fromG575 the judgment seatG968.
ThenG1161 allG3956 the GreeksG1672 tookG1949 SosthenesG4988, the chief ruler of the synagogueG752, and beatG5180 him beforeG1715 the judgment seatG968. AndG2532 GallioG1058 caredG3199 for noneG3762 of those thingsG5130.
AndG1161 PaulG3972 after this tarriedG4357 there yetG2089 a goodG2425 whileG2250, and then took his leaveG657 of the brethrenG80, and sailed thenceG1602 intoG1519 SyriaG4947, andG2532 withG4862 himG846 PriscillaG4252 andG2532 AquilaG207; having shornG2751 his headG2776 inG1722 CenchreaG2747: forG1063 he hadG2192 a vowG2171.
AndG1161 he cameG2658 toG1519 EphesusG2181, andG2548 leftG2641 them thereG847: butG1161 he himselfG846 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the synagogueG4864, and reasoned withG1256 the JewsG2453.
WhenG1161 theyG846 desiredG2065 him to tarryG3306 longerG1909+G4119 timeG5550 withG3844 themG846, he consentedG1962 notG3756;
ButG235 badeG657 themG846 farewellG657, sayingG2036, IG3165 mustG1163 by all meansG3843 keepG4160 this feastG1859 that comethG2064 inG1519 JerusalemG2414: butG1161 I will returnG344 againG3825 untoG4314 youG5209, if GodG2316 willG2309. AndG2532 he sailedG321 fromG575 EphesusG2181.
AndG2532 when he had landedG2718 atG1519 CaesareaG2542, and gone upG305, andG2532 salutedG782 the churchG1577, he went downG2597 toG1519 AntiochG490.
AndG2532 after he had spentG4160 someG5100 timeG5550 there, he departedG1831, and went overG1330 all the countryG5561 of GalatiaG1054 andG2532 PhrygiaG5435 in orderG2517, strengtheningG1991 allG3956 the disciplesG3101.
AndG1161 a certainG5100 JewG2453 namedG3686 ApollosG625, bornG1085 at AlexandriaG221, an eloquentG3052 manG435, and mightyG5607+G1415 inG1722 the scripturesG1124, cameG2658 toG1519 EphesusG2181.
This manG3778 wasG2258 instructed inG2727 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962; andG2532 being ferventG2204 in the spiritG4151, he spakeG2980 andG2532 taughtG1321 diligentlyG199 the things ofG4012 the LordG2962, knowingG1987 onlyG3440 the baptismG908 of JohnG2491.
AndG5037 heG3778 beganG756 to speak boldlyG3955 inG1722 the synagogueG4864: whomG846 whenG1161 AquilaG207 andG2532 PriscillaG4252 had heardG191, they tookG4355 himG846 unto them, andG2532 expoundedG1620 unto himG846 the wayG3598 of GodG2316 more perfectlyG197.
AndG1161 when heG846 was disposedG1014 to passG1330 intoG1519 AchaiaG882, the brethrenG80 wroteG1125, exhortingG4389 the disciplesG3101 to receiveG588 himG846: whoG3739, when he was comeG3854, helped themG4820 muchG4183 which had believedG4100 throughG1223 graceG5485:
ForG1063 he mightilyG2159 convincedG1246 the JewsG2453, and that publicklyG1219, shewingG1925 byG1223 the scripturesG1124 that JesusG2424 wasG1511 ChristG5547. {Christ: or, is the Christ}
Stand fastG4739 thereforeG3767 in the libertyG1657 wherewithG3739 ChristG5547 hath madeG1659 usG2248 freeG1659, andG2532 beG1758 notG3361 entangledG1758 againG3825 with the yokeG2218 of bondageG1397.
BeholdG2396, IG1473 PaulG3972 sayG3004 unto youG5213, thatG3754 ifG1437 ye be circumcisedG4059, ChristG5547 shall profitG5623 youG5209 nothingG3762.
ForG1161 I testifyG3143 againG3825 to everyG3956 manG444 that is circumcisedG4059, thatG3754 he isG2076 a debtorG3781 to doG4160 the wholeG3650 lawG3551.
ChristG5547 is become of no effect unto youG575+G2673, whosoever of youG3748 are justifiedG1344 byG1722 the lawG3551; ye are fallen fromG1601 graceG5485.
ForG1063 weG2249 through the SpiritG4151 wait forG553 the hopeG1680 of righteousnessG1343 byG1537 faithG4102.
ForG1063 inG1722 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 neitherG3777 circumcisionG4061 availethG2480 any thingG5100, norG3777 uncircumcisionG203; butG235 faithG4102 which workethG1754 byG1223 loveG26.
Ye did runG5143 wellG2573; whoG5101 did hinderG348+G1465 youG5209 that ye shouldG3982 notG3361 obeyG3982 the truthG225? {hinder you: or, drive you back}
This persuasionG3988 cometh notG3756 ofG1537 him that callethG2564 youG5209.
A littleG3398 leavenG2219 leavenethG2220 the wholeG3650 lumpG5445.
IG1473 have confidenceG3982 inG1519 youG5209 throughG1722 the LordG2962, thatG3754 ye will beG5426 noneG3762 otherwiseG243 mindedG5426: butG1161 he that troublethG5015 youG5209 shall bearG941 his judgmentG2917, whosoeverG3748 he beG302+G5600.
AndG1161 IG1473, brethrenG80, ifG1487 IG2784 yetG2089 preachG2784 circumcisionG4061, whyG5101 do IG1377 yetG2089 suffer persecutionG1377? thenG686 isG2673 the offenceG4625 of the crossG4716 ceasedG2673.
I wouldG3785 they wereG609 evenG2532 cut offG609 which troubleG387 youG5209.
ForG1063, brethrenG80, yeG5210 have been calledG2564 untoG1909 libertyG1657; onlyG3440 use notG3361 libertyG1657 forG1519 an occasionG874 to the fleshG4561, butG235 byG1223 loveG26 serveG1398 one anotherG240.
ForG1063 allG3956 the lawG3551 is fulfilledG4137 inG1722 oneG1520 wordG3056, even inG1722 this; Thou shalt loveG25 thyG4675 neighbourG4139 asG5613 thyselfG1438.
ButG1161 ifG1487 ye biteG1143 andG2532 devourG2719 one anotherG240, take heedG991 that ye beG335 notG3361 consumedG355 oneG240 ofG5259 anotherG240.
This I sayG3004 thenG1161, WalkG4043 in the SpiritG4151, andG2532 ye shallG5055 notG3364 fulfilG5055 the lustG1939 of the fleshG4561. {ye…: or, fulfil not}
ForG1063 the fleshG4561 lustethG1937 againstG2596 the SpiritG4151, andG1161 the SpiritG4151 againstG2596 the fleshG4561: andG1161 theseG5023 are contraryG480 the one to the otherG240: so thatG2443 ye cannotG3363 doG4160 the thingsG5023 thatG3739+G302 ye wouldG2309.
ButG1161 ifG1487 ye be ledG71 of the SpiritG4151, ye areG2075 notG3756 underG5259 the lawG3551.
NowG1161 the worksG2041 of the fleshG4561 areG2076 manifestG5318, whichG3748 areG2076 these; AdulteryG3430, fornicationG4202, uncleannessG167, lasciviousnessG766,
IdolatryG1495, witchcraftG5331, hatredG2189, varianceG2054, emulationsG2205, wrathG2372, strifeG2052, seditionsG1370, heresiesG139,
EnvyingsG5355, murdersG5408, drunkennessG3178, revellingsG2970, andG2532 suchG5125 likeG3664: of the whichG3739 I tellG4302 youG5213 beforeG4302, asG2531 I haveG4277 alsoG2532 told you in time pastG4277, thatG3754 they which doG4238 such thingsG5108 shallG2816 notG3756 inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316.
ButG1161 the fruitG2590 of the SpiritG4151 isG2076 loveG26, joyG5479, peaceG1515, longsufferingG3115, gentlenessG5544, goodnessG19, faithG4102,
MeeknessG4236, temperanceG1466: againstG2596 suchG5108 there isG2076 noG3756 lawG3551.
AndG1161 they that areG3588 Christ'sG5547 have crucifiedG4717 the fleshG4561 withG4862 the affectionsG3804 andG2532 lustsG1939. {affections: or, passions}
IfG1487 we liveG2198 in the SpiritG4151, let usG4748 alsoG2532 walkG4748 in the SpiritG4151.
Let usG1096 notG3361 beG1096 desirous of vain gloryG2755, provokingG4292 one anotherG240, envyingG5354 one anotherG240.
ForG1063 PaulG3972 had determinedG2919 to sail byG3896 EphesusG2181, becauseG3704 heG846 wouldG1096 notG3361 spend the timeG5551 inG1722 AsiaG773: forG1063 he hastedG4692, ifG1487 it wereG2258 possibleG1415 for himG846, to beG1096 atG1519 JerusalemG2414 the dayG2250 of PentecostG4005.
AndG2532 to makeG5461 allG3956 men seeG5461 whatG5101 is the fellowshipG2842 of the mysteryG3466, whichG3588 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165 hath been hidG613 inG1722 GodG2316, whoG3588 createdG2936 all thingsG3956 byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547:
To the intent thatG2443 nowG3568 unto the principalitiesG746 andG2532 powersG1849 inG1722 heavenlyG2032 places might be knownG1107 byG1223 the churchG1577 the manifoldG4182 wisdomG4678 of GodG2316,
PaulG3972 andG2532 TimotheusG5095, the servantsG1401 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, to allG3956 the saintsG40 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 which areG5607 atG1722 PhilippiG5375, withG4862 the bishopsG1985 andG2532 deaconsG1249:
GraceG5485 be unto youG5213, andG2532 peaceG1515, fromG575 GodG2316 ourG2257 FatherG3962, andG2532 from the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
I thankG2168 myG3450 GodG2316 uponG1909 everyG3956 remembranceG3417 of youG5216, {remembrance: or, mention}
AlwaysG3842 inG1722 everyG3956 prayerG1162 of mineG3450 forG5228 youG5216 allG3956 makingG4160 requestG1162 withG3326 joyG5479,
ForG1909 yourG5216 fellowshipG2842 inG1519 the gospelG2098 fromG575 the firstG4413 dayG2250 untilG891 nowG3568;
Being confidentG3982 of thisG5124 very thingG846, thatG3754 he which hath begunG1728 a goodG18 workG2041 inG1722 youG5213 will performG2005 it untilG891 the dayG2250 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547: {perform: or, finish}
Even asG2531 it isG2076 meetG1342 for meG1698 to thinkG5426 thisG5124 ofG5228 youG5216 allG3956, becauseG1223 I haveG2192 youG5209 inG1722 myG3165 heartG2588; inasmuch as bothG5037 inG1722 myG3450 bondsG1199, andG2532 in the defenceG627 andG2532 confirmationG951 of the gospelG2098, yeG5209 allG3956 areG5607 partakersG4791 of myG3450 graceG5485. {I have…: or, ye have me in your heart} {of my…: or, with me of grace}
ForG1063 GodG2316 isG2076 myG3450 recordG3144, howG5613 greatly I long afterG1971 youG5209 allG3956 inG1722 the bowelsG4698 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
AndG2532 thisG5124 I prayG4336, thatG2443 yourG5216 loveG26 may aboundG4052 yetG2089 moreG3123 andG2532 moreG3123 inG1722 knowledgeG1922 andG2532 in allG3956 judgmentG144; {judgment: or, sense}
ThatG1519 yeG5209 may approveG1381 things that are excellentG1308; thatG2443 ye may beG5600 sincereG1506 andG2532 without offenceG677 tillG1519 the dayG2250 of ChristG5547; {approve: or, try} {are…: or, differ}
Being filledG4137 with the fruitsG2590 of righteousnessG1343, whichG3588 are byG1223 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, untoG1519 the gloryG1391 andG2532 praiseG1868 of GodG2316.
ButG1161 I wouldG1014 yeG5209 should understandG1097, brethrenG80, thatG3754 the things which happened untoG2596 meG1691 have fallen outG2064 ratherG3123 untoG1519 the furtheranceG4297 of the gospelG2098;
So thatG5620 myG3450 bondsG1199 inG1722 ChristG5547 areG1096 manifestG5318 inG1722 allG3650 the palaceG4232, andG2532 in allG3956 otherG3062 places; {in Christ: or, for Christ} {the palace: or, Caesar's court} {in all other…: or, to all others}
AndG2532 manyG4119 of the brethrenG80 inG1722 the LordG2962, waxing confidentG3982 by myG3450 bondsG1199, are much moreG4056 boldG5111 to speakG2980 the wordG3056 without fearG870.
SomeG5100 indeedG3303 preachG2784 ChristG5547 evenG2532 ofG1223 envyG5355 andG2532 strifeG2054; andG1161 someG5100 alsoG2532 ofG1223 good willG2107:
The oneG3303 preachG2605 ChristG5547 ofG1537 contentionG2052, notG3756 sincerelyG55, supposingG3633 to addG2018 afflictionG2347 to myG3450 bondsG1199:
ButG1161 the other ofG1537 loveG26, knowingG1492 thatG3754 I am setG2749 forG1519 the defenceG627 of the gospelG2098.
WhatG5101 thenG1063? notwithstandingG4133, everyG3956 wayG5158, whetherG1535 in pretenceG4392, orG1535 in truthG225, ChristG5547 is preachedG2605; andG2532 IG5463 thereinG1722+G5129 do rejoiceG5463, yeaG235, andG2532 will rejoiceG5463.
ForG1063 I knowG1492 thatG3754 thisG5124 shall turnG576 toG1519 myG3427 salvationG4991 throughG1223 yourG5216 prayerG1162, andG2532 the supplyG2024 of the SpiritG4151 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547,
AccordingG2596 to myG3450 earnest expectationG603 andG2532 my hopeG1680, thatG3754 inG1722 nothingG3762 I shall be ashamedG153, butG235 that withG1722 allG3956 boldnessG3954, asG5613 alwaysG3842, so nowG3568 alsoG2532 ChristG5547 shall be magnifiedG3170 inG1722 myG3450 bodyG4983, whetherG1535 it be byG1223 lifeG2222, orG1535 byG1223 deathG2288.
ForG1063 to meG1698 to liveG2198 is ChristG5547, andG2532 to dieG599 is gainG2771.
ButG1161 ifG1487 I liveG2198 inG1722 the fleshG4561, thisG5124 is the fruitG2590 of my labourG2041+G3427: yetG2532 whatG5101 I shall chooseG138 I wotG1107 notG3756.
ForG1063 I am in a straitG4912 betwixtG1537 twoG1417, havingG2192 a desireG1939 toG1519 departG360, andG2532 to beG1511 withG4862 ChristG5547; which is farG4183+G3123 betterG2908:
NeverthelessG1161 to abideG1961 inG1722 the fleshG4561 is more needfulG316 forG1223 youG5209.
AndG2532 having thisG5124 confidenceG3982, I knowG1492 thatG3754 I shall abideG3306 andG2532 continueG4839 with youG5213 allG3956 forG1519 yourG5216 furtheranceG4297 andG2532 joyG5479 of faithG4102;
ThatG2443 yourG5216 rejoicingG2745 may be more abundantG4052 inG1722 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 forG1722 meG1698 byG1223 myG1699 comingG3952 toG4314 youG5209 againG3825.
OnlyG3440 let your conversation beG4176 as it becomethG516 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547: thatG2443 whetherG1535 I comeG2064 andG2532 seeG1492 youG5209, orG1535 else be absentG548, I may hearG191 of yourG5216 affairsG4012, thatG3754 ye stand fastG4739 inG1722 oneG1520 spiritG4151, with oneG3391 mindG5590 striving togetherG4866 for the faithG4102 of the gospelG2098;
AndG2532 inG1722 nothingG3367+G3361 terrifiedG4426 byG5259 your adversariesG480: whichG3748 isG2076 to themG846+G3303 an evident tokenG1732 of perditionG684, butG1161 to youG5213 of salvationG4991, andG2532 thatG5124 ofG575 GodG2316.
ForG3754 unto youG5213 it is givenG5483 in the behalfG5228 of ChristG5547, notG3756 onlyG3440 to believeG4100 onG1519 himG846, butG235 alsoG2532 to sufferG3958 forG5228 his sakeG846+G5228;
HavingG2192 the sameG846 conflictG73 whichG3634 ye sawG1492 inG1722 meG1698, andG2532 nowG3568 hearG191 to be inG1722 meG1698.
ForG1063 I wouldG2309 that yeG5209 knewG1492 what greatG2245 conflictG73 I haveG2192 forG4012 youG5216, andG2532 for them atG1722 LaodiceaG2993, andG2532 for as many asG3745 haveG3708 notG3756 seenG3708 myG3450 faceG4383 inG1722 the fleshG4561; {conflict: or, fear, or, care}
ButG1161 I wouldG1014 yeG5209 should understandG1097, brethrenG80, thatG3754 the things which happened untoG2596 meG1691 have fallen outG2064 ratherG3123 untoG1519 the furtheranceG4297 of the gospelG2098;
And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smellH1314 there shall be stinkH4716; and instead of a girdleH2290 a rentH5364; and instead of well setH4639 hairH4748 baldnessH7144; and instead of a stomacherH6614 a girdingH4228 of sackclothH8242; and burningH3587 instead of beautyH3308.
IfG1437 a manG5100 thereforeG3767 purgeG1571 himselfG1438 fromG575 theseG5130, he shall beG2071 a vesselG4632 untoG1519 honourG5092, sanctifiedG37, andG2532 meetG2173 for the master's useG1203, and preparedG2090 untoG1519 everyG3956 goodG18 workG2041.
AndG1161 SaulG4569, yetG2089 breathing outG1709 threateningsG547 andG2532 slaughterG5408 againstG1519 the disciplesG3101 of the LordG2962, wentG4334 unto the high priestG749,
And desiredG154 ofG3844 himG846 lettersG1992 toG1519 DamascusG1154 toG4314 the synagoguesG4864, thatG3704 ifG1437 he foundG2147 anyG5100 of this wayG3598, whetherG5037 they wereG5607 menG435 orG2532 womenG1135, he might bring themG71 boundG1210 untoG1519 JerusalemG2419. {of this way: Gr. of the way}
AndG1161 as heG846 journeyedG4198+G1722, he cameG1096 nearG1448 DamascusG1154: andG2532 suddenlyG1810 there shined round aboutG4015 himG846 a lightG5457 fromG575 heavenG3772:
AndG2532 he fellG4098 toG1909 the earthG1093, and heardG191 a voiceG5456 sayingG3004 unto himG846, SaulG4549, SaulG4549, whyG5101 persecutest thouG1377 meG3165?
AndG1161 he saidG2036, WhoG5101 art thouG1488, LordG2962? AndG1161 the LordG2962 saidG2036, IG1473 amG1510 JesusG2424 whomG3739 thouG4771 persecutestG1377: it is hardG4642 for theeG4671 to kickG2979 againstG4314 the pricksG2759.
AndG5037 he tremblingG5141 andG2532 astonishedG2284 saidG2036, LordG2962, whatG5101 wilt thou haveG2309 meG3165 to doG4160? AndG2532 the LordG2962 said untoG4314 himG846, AriseG450, andG2532 goG1525 intoG1519 the cityG4172, andG2532 it shall be toldG2980 theeG4671 whatG5101 thouG4571 mustG1163 doG4160.
AndG1161 the menG435 whichG3588 journeyedG4922 with himG846 stoodG2476 speechlessG1769, hearingG191+G3303 a voiceG5456, butG1161 seeingG2334 no manG3367.
AndG1161 SaulG4569 aroseG1453 fromG575 the earthG1093; andG1161 when hisG846 eyesG3788 were openedG455, he sawG991 no manG3762: butG1161 they ledG5496 himG846 by the handG5496, and broughtG1521 him intoG1519 DamascusG1154.
AndG2532 he wasG2258 threeG5140 daysG2250 withoutG3361 sightG991, andG2532 neitherG3756 did eatG5315 norG3761 drinkG4095.
AndG1161 there wasG2258 a certainG5100 discipleG3101 atG1722 DamascusG1154, namedG3686 AnaniasG367; andG2532 toG4314 himG846 saidG2036 the LordG2962 inG1722 a visionG3705, AnaniasG367. AndG1161 he saidG2036, BeholdG2400, IG1473 am here, LordG2962.
AndG1161 the LordG2962 said untoG4314 himG846, AriseG450, and goG4198 intoG1909 the streetG4505 whichG3588 is calledG2564 StraightG2117, andG2532 enquireG2212 inG1722 the houseG3614 of JudasG2455 for one calledG3686 SaulG4569, of TarsusG5018: forG1063, beholdG2400, he prayethG4336,
AndG2532 hath seenG1492 inG1722 a visionG3705 a manG435 namedG3686 AnaniasG367 coming inG1525, andG2532 puttingG2007 his handG5495 onG2007 himG846, thatG3704 he might receive his sightG308.
ThenG1161 AnaniasG367 answeredG611, LordG2962, I have heardG191 byG575 manyG4183 ofG4012 thisG5127 manG435, how muchG3745 evilG2556 he hath doneG4160 to thyG4675 saintsG40 atG1722 JerusalemG2419:
AndG2532 hereG5602 he hathG2192 authorityG1849 fromG3844 the chief priestsG749 to bindG1210 allG3956 that callG1941 on thyG4675 nameG3686.
ButG1161 the LordG2962 saidG2036 untoG4314 himG846, Go thy wayG4198: forG3754 heG3778 isG2076 a chosenG1589 vesselG4632 unto meG3427, to bearG941 myG3450 nameG3686 beforeG1799 the GentilesG1484, andG2532 kingsG935, andG5037 the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474:
ForG1063 IG1473 will shewG5263 himG846 how great thingsG3745 heG846 mustG1163 sufferG3958 forG5228 myG3450 name's sakeG3686+G5228.
AndG1161 AnaniasG367 went his wayG565, andG2532 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the houseG3614; andG2532 puttingG2007 his handsG5495 onG1909 himG846 saidG2036, BrotherG80 SaulG4549, the LordG2962, even JesusG2424, that appearedG3700 unto theeG4671 inG1722 the wayG3598 asG3739 thou camestG2064, hath sentG649 meG3165, thatG3704 thou mightest receive thy sightG308, andG2532 be filled withG4130 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
AndG2532 immediatelyG2112 there fellG634 fromG575 hisG846 eyesG3788 asG5616 it had been scalesG3013: and he received sightG308 forthwithG3916, andG5037 aroseG450, andG2532 was baptizedG907.
AndG2532 when he had receivedG2983 meatG5160, he was strengthenedG1765. ThenG1161 wasG1096 SaulG4569 certainG5100 daysG2250 withG3326 the disciplesG3101 which were atG1722 DamascusG1154.
AndG2532 straightwayG2112 he preachedG2784 ChristG5547 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864, thatG3754 heG3778 isG2076 the SonG5207 of GodG2316.
ButG1161 allG3956 that heardG191 him were amazedG1839, andG2532 saidG3004; IsG2076 notG3756 thisG3778 he that destroyedG4199 them whichG3588 called onG1941 thisG5124 nameG3686 inG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 cameG2064 hitherG5602 forG1519 thatG5124 intentG1519, thatG2443 he might bringG71 themG846 boundG1210 untoG1909 the chief priestsG749?
ButG1161 SaulG4569 increasedG1743 the moreG3123 in strengthG1743, andG2532 confoundedG4797 the JewsG2453 whichG3588 dweltG2730 atG1722 DamascusG1154, provingG4822 thatG3754 thisG3778 isG2076 very ChristG5547.
AndG1161 afterG5613 that manyG2425 daysG2250 were fulfilledG4137, the JewsG2453 took counselG4823 to killG337 himG846:
ButG1161 theirG846 laying awaitG1917 was knownG1097 of SaulG4569. AndG5037 they watchedG3906 the gatesG4439 dayG2250 andG2532 nightG3571 toG3704 killG337 himG846.
ThenG1161 the disciplesG3101 tookG2983 himG846 by nightG3571, and let him downG2524+G5465 byG1223 the wallG5038 inG1722 a basketG4711.
AndG1161 when SaulG4569 was comeG3854 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, he assayedG3987 to join himselfG2853 to the disciplesG3101: butG2532 they wereG5399 allG3956 afraidG5399 of himG846, and believedG4100 notG3361 thatG3754 he wasG2076 a discipleG3101.
ButG1161 BarnabasG921 tookG1949 himG846, and broughtG71 him toG4314 the apostlesG652, andG2532 declaredG1334 unto themG846 howG4459 he had seenG1492 the LordG2962 inG1722 the wayG3598, andG2532 thatG3754 he had spokenG2980 to himG846, andG2532 howG4459 he had preached boldlyG3955 atG1722 DamascusG1154 inG1722 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424.
AndG2532 he wasG2258 withG3326 themG846 coming inG1531 andG2532 going outG1607 atG1722 JerusalemG2419.
AndG2532 he spakeG2980 boldlyG3955 inG1722 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, andG5037+G2532 disputedG4802 againstG4314 the GreciansG1675: butG1161 they went aboutG2021 to slayG337 himG846.
Which whenG1161 the brethrenG80 knewG1921, they broughtG2609 himG846 downG2609 toG1519 CaesareaG2542, andG2532 sentG1821 himG846 forthG1821 toG1519 TarsusG5019.
ThenG3303+G3767 hadG2192 the churchesG1577 restG1515 throughoutG2596 allG3650 JudaeaG2449 andG2532 GalileeG1056 andG2532 SamariaG4540, and were edifiedG3618; andG2532 walking inG4198 the fearG5401 of the LordG2962, andG2532 in the comfortG3874 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151, were multipliedG4129.
AndG1161 it cameG1096 to pass, asG1330 PeterG4074 passed throughoutG1330+G1223 allG3956 quarters, he came downG2718 alsoG2532 toG4314 the saintsG40 whichG3588 dweltG2730 at LyddaG3069.
AndG1161 thereG1563 he foundG2147 a certainG5100 manG444 namedG3686 AeneasG132, which had keptG2621+G1909 his bedG2895+G1537 eightG3638 yearsG2094, andG3739 wasG2258 sick of the palsyG3886.
AndG2532 PeterG4074 saidG2036 unto himG846, AeneasG132, JesusG2424 ChristG5547 makethG2390 theeG4571 wholeG2390: ariseG450, andG2532 makeG4766 thyG4572 bedG4766. AndG2532 he aroseG450 immediatelyG2112.
AndG2532 allG3956 that dweltG2730 at LyddaG3069 andG2532 SaronG4565 sawG1492 himG846, andG3748 turnedG1994 toG1909 the LordG2962.
NowG1161 there wasG2258 atG1722 JoppaG2445 a certainG5100 discipleG3102 namedG3686 TabithaG5000, whichG3739 by interpretationG1329 is calledG3004 DorcasG1393: this womanG3778+G846 wasG2258 fullG4134 of goodG18 worksG2041 andG2532 almsdeedsG1654 whichG3739 she didG4160. {Dorcas: or, Doe, or, Roe}
AndG1161 it came to passG1096 inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG2250, that she was sickG770, and diedG599: whom whenG1161 theyG846 had washedG3068+G846, they laidG5087 her inG1722 an upper chamberG5253.
AndG1161 forasmuch asG5607 LyddaG3069 was nighG1451 to JoppaG2445, and the disciplesG3101 had heardG191 thatG3754 PeterG4074 wasG2076 thereG1722+G846, they sentG649 untoG4314 himG846 twoG1417 menG435, desiringG3870 him that he wouldG3635 notG3361 delayG3635 to comeG1330 toG2193 themG846. {delay: or, be grieved}
ThenG1161 PeterG4074 aroseG450 and went withG4905 themG846. When heG3739 was comeG3854, they brought himG321 intoG1519 the upper chamberG5253: andG2532 allG3956 the widowsG5503 stood byG3936 himG846 weepingG2799, andG2532 shewingG1925 the coatsG5509 andG2532 garmentsG2440 whichG3745 DorcasG1393 madeG4160, while she wasG5607 withG3326 themG846.
ButG1161 PeterG4074 putG1544 them allG3956 forthG1854, and kneeled downG5087+G1119, and prayedG4336; andG2532 turningG1994 him toG4314 the bodyG4983 saidG2036, TabithaG5000, ariseG450. AndG1161 she openedG455 herG846 eyesG3788: andG2532 when she sawG1492 PeterG4074, she sat upG339.
AndG1161 he gaveG1325 herG846 his handG5495, and liftedG450 herG846 upG450, andG1161 when he had calledG5455 the saintsG40 andG2532 widowsG5503, presentedG3936 herG846 aliveG2198.
AndG1161 it wasG1096 knownG1110 throughoutG2596 allG3650 JoppaG2445; andG2532 manyG4183 believedG4100 inG1909 the LordG2962.
AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that heG846 tarriedG3306 manyG2425 daysG2250 inG1722 JoppaG2445 withG3844 oneG5100 SimonG4613 a tannerG1038.
