³⁶ And Anna was a prophetess, daughter of flannel, of the tribe of Aser : she advanced in many days, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity;

²⁹ And having risen up, they cast him without the city, and they brought him to the brow of the mount upon which their city was built, to hurt him down.

⁴ And when he ceased speaking, he said to Simon, Sail out into the deep, and slacken your nets for fishing.

²² And it was in one of the days, and he went into a ship, and his disciples: and he said to them, Let us pass through to the other side of the lake. And they led forth.

¹³ Woe to thee Chorazin! woe to thee Bethsaida! for if in Tyre and Sidon were the powers having been in you, long since had they changed the mind, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

² And he said to them, When ye pray, say, Our Father he in the heavens, Holy be thy name. Let thy kingdom come. Let thy will be, as in heaven, also upon the earth.

¹ Upon which, myriads of the crowd having been gathered together, so as to tread upon one another, he began to speak to his disciples first, Keep yourselves from the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

³ And he spake this parable to them, saying, ⁴ What man of you, having one hundred. sheep, and having lost one of them, leaves not the ninety-nine in the desert, and goes for the one lost, till he find it ⁵ And having found, he puts upon his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And having come into the house, he calls together friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me: for I have found my lost sheep. ⁷ I say to you, that so shall joy be in heaven over one sinful repenting, more than over ninety-nine just, which have no need of repentance. ⁸ Or what woman having ten drachmas, if she lose one drachma, lights not a lamp, and sweeps the house, and seeks diligently till she should find? ⁹ And having found, she calls together female friends and neighbors, saying, Rejoice with me; for I found the drachma which I lost. ¹⁰ So, I say to you, joy is in heaven before the messengers of God for one sinful changing the mind.

³² And to be gladdened, and to rejoice, was fitting: for this thy brother was dead, and has returned to life; and he was lost, and found.

¹² And before all these shall they cast their hands upon you, and drive out, delivering to assemblies, and prisons, being brought before kings and leaders for my name's sake.

¹⁵ For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all they opposed to you shall not be able to contradict nor withstand.

⁴² Saying, Father, If thou art willing, turn aside this cup from me: but not my will, but thine, be done.

¹⁸ And they cried out with the entire multitude, saying, Take this away, and loose to us Barabbas:

³⁸ And there was also an inscription written upon him, in letters Greek, Roman, and Hebrew; THIS IS KING OF THE JEWS.

¹¹ He came to his own things, and his own received him not.

²⁵ Then was there an investigation of John's disciples with Jesus about purification.

² And there is in Jerusalem, at the sheep place a pool, in Hebrew called Bethesda, having five porches.

⁵³ And each man went to his house.

⁵⁵ And the Jews' pascha was near: and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the pascha, that they might purify themselves.

²⁴ Truly, truly, I say to you, except a kernel of wheat, having fallen into the earth, should die, it remains alone: and if it should die, it brings forth much fruit.

² They shall make you excluded from the synagogue: but the hour comes that every one having slain you should think to bring service to God.

³² Behold, the hour comes, and has now come, that ye be scattered, each to his own, and leave me alone: and I am not alone, for the Father is with me.

¹² Then the band and captain of a thousand and attendants of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,

²⁹ Then went Pilate out to them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man ³⁰ They answered and said to him, If he were not injurious, we had not delivered him to thee.

¹³ Then Pilate having heard, brought Jesus without, and sat upon the judgment seat, in a place called Paved with ornamental stones; in Hebraic, Gabbatha.

¹⁵ And they cried, Take away, take away, crucify him. Pilate says to them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.

¹⁷ And they took Jesus, and led away: and bearing his cross he went out into a place called Kranium, which in Hebraic is called Golgotha:

²⁰ Then read many of the Jews this title: for the place was near the city where Jesus was crucified: and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, Roman.

²⁷ Then says he to the disciple, Behold thy mother And from that hour the disciple took her to his own.

¹⁷ For he was numbered with us, and obtained the lot of this service.

¹⁷ And it shall be in the last days, says God, I pour out from my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your elder dream dreams:

⁴¹ Then truly they having gladly received his word were immersed: and in that day were added about three thousand souls.

³ And they put hands upon them, and set in guard for the morrow: for it was already evening. ⁴ And many of them having heard the word, believed; and the number of men was about five thousand.

²¹ And they having made additional threats, loosed them, finding nothing how they might chastise them, for sake of the people: for all honoured God for that having been done.

³⁶ And Joses, surnamed Barnabas by the sent, (which is interpreted, Son of consolation,) a Levite, a Cyprian by birth,

¹⁸ And put their hands upon the sent, and set them in the public keeping.

³⁶ For before these days Theudas arose, saying himself to be somebody: which a number of men followed, about four hundred, who was slain; and all, as many as believed him, were destroyed, and were for nothing. ³⁷ After this Judas the Galilean arose in the days of enrolling, and misled enough people after him: and he perished; and all, as many as believed him, were scattered.

⁴⁰ And by him they were persuaded: and having called the sent, having stripped, they enjoined not to speak in the name of Jesus, and loosed them. ⁴¹ Truly therefore they went rejoicing from the face of the council, that for his name they were deemed worthy to be dishonoured.

¹ And in those days, the disciples multiplying, there was a murmuring of the Greeks against the Hebrews, because their widows were overlooked in the daily service.

⁵ And the word pleased before all the multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:

⁷ And the word of God increased: and the number of disciples was multiplied greatly in Jerusalem; and a great crowd of priests listened to the faith.

⁹ And certain of them arose from the synagogue, called Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrian, and of them from Cilicia and Asia, seeking out with Stephen.

¹² And they roused together the people, and elders, and scribes, and having stood against, they seized him, and brought to the council, ¹³ And set false witnesses, saying, This man ceases not speaking defaming words against this holy place, and the law: ¹⁴ For we have heard him saying; That Jesus the Nazarite shall abolish this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered to us.

⁵⁴ And having heard those, they were sawn through their hearts, and they gnashed the teeth upon him.

⁵⁷ And having cried with a great voice, they held fast their ears, and rushed unanimously upon him, ⁵⁸ And having cast out of the city, they stoned: and the witnesses laid down their garments at the feet of a young man called Saul.

⁵ And Philip having come down to the city of Samaria, proclaimed Christ to them. ⁶ And the crowds unanimously attended to things spoken by Philip, in their hearing and seeing the signs which he did. ⁷ For of many having unclean spirits, crying with a great voice, they came out: and many affected with palsy, and the lame, were healed. ⁸ And great joy was in that city. ⁹ And a certain man, Simon by name, was before in the city using magic, and astonishing the nation of Samaria, saying himself to be somebody great: ¹⁰ To whom attended from little to great, saying, This is the great power of God. ¹¹ And they attended to him, because for a sufficient time they were astonished by magics. ¹² And when they believed Philip announcing the good news of the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were immersed, both men and women. ¹³ And Simon also himself believed: and having been immersed, he was persovering with Philip, beholding the signs and great powers having been, they were astonished.

²⁶ And a messenger of the Lord spake to Philip, saying, Arise, and go at noon in the way going down from Jerusalem to Gaza, (this is desert.) ²⁷ And having risen, he went: and, behold, an Ethiopian man, an eunuch of great power of Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come going to worship in Jerusalem, ²⁸ And he was returning, and sitting in his chariot he read the prophet Esaias. ²⁹ And the Spirit said to Philip, Come near, and be joined to this chariot. ³⁰ And Philip running near, heard him reading the prophet Esaias, and he said, Truly knowest thou what thou readest? ³¹ And he said, How can I, except somebody guide me? And he called upon Philip coming up to sit with him. ³² And the passage of the writing which he read was this, As a sheep for slaughter was he brought; and as a lamb before him shearing it dumb, so he opened not his mouth: ³³ In his humiliation was his judgment taken away: and his generation who shall recount? for his life is taken from the earth. ³⁴ And the eunuch having answered Philip, said, I pray thee, of whom speaks the prophet this of himself or of some other? ³⁵ And Philip having opened his mouth, and begun from this writing, announced to him the good news, Jesus. ³⁶ And as they went in the way, they came to some water: and the eunuch said, Behold water; what hinders me to be immersed? ³⁷ And Philip said, If thou believest from the whole heart, it is lawful. And having answered, he said, I believe the Son of God to be Jesus Christ. ³⁸ And he ordered the chariot to stand: and both went down into the Water, both Philip and the eunuch: and he immersed him. ³⁹ And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried away Philip, and the eunuch saw him no more: for he went his way rejoicing. ⁴⁰ And Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he announced the good news to all of the cities, even till he came to Cesarea.

⁴⁰ And Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he announced the good news to all of the cities, even till he came to Cesarea.

¹¹ And the Lord to him, Having risen, go thou to the street called Straight, and seek in the house of Judas Saul by name, of Tarsus; for, behold, he prays,

¹⁶ For I will show him what he must suffer for my name.

³⁰ And the brethren having known, brought him down to Cesarea, and they sent him forth to Tarsus.

⁴⁰ And Peter having put them all without, having set the knees, prayed; and having turned back to the body he said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and having seen Peter, sat up.

¹ And a certain man was in Cesarea by name Cornelius, a centurion of the band called Italian,

²⁴ And the morrow he came to Cesarea. And Cornelius was waiting for them, having called together his kinsmen and friends by relationship.

⁴⁸ And he commanded them to be immersed in the name of the Lord. Then asked they him to remain certain. days.

⁴ And Peter having begun, set forth to them in order, saying, ⁵ I was in the city Joppa, praying: and in a deep trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descending as a great linen napkin, let down from heaven by four beginnings; and it came even to me: ⁶ Upon which having looked intently, I observed, and saw quadrupeds of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and the flying things of heaven. ⁷ And I heard a voice saying to me, Having risen, Peter, kill and eat. ⁸ And I said, By no means, Lord: for anything common or unclean never came into my month. ⁹ And a voice answered me of a second time from heaven, What God cleansed, profane not. ¹⁰ And this was for thrice: and again all was drawn up into heaven. ¹¹ And, behold, from this three men stood at the house in which I was, sent from Cesarea to me. ¹² And the spirit said to me to come with them, discussing nothing. And these six brethren came also with me, and we came to the man's house: ¹³ And he announced to us how he saw a messenger in his house, having stood and said to him, Send men to Joppa, and send for Simon, surnamed Peter ¹⁴ Who shall speak words to thee, by which thou shalt be saved and all thy house. ¹⁵ And in my beginning to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, as also upon us in the beginning. ¹⁶ And I remembered the word of the Lord, when he said, John truly immersed with water; but ye shall be immersed with the Holy Spirit. ¹⁷ If therefore God gave the like gift to them as also to us, having believed in the Lord Jesus Christ; how was I able to hinder God ¹⁸ And having heard these, they were silent, and honoured God, saying, For also God gave the nations repentance to life.

¹⁸ And having heard these, they were silent, and honoured God, saying, For also God gave the nations repentance to life. ¹⁹ Therefore truly those dispersed by the pressure having been on account of Stephen, passed through even to Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, speaking the word to none except the Jews only.

²⁶ And having found him, he brought him to Antioch. And it was for a whole year they were assembled together in the churches, and taught a sufficient crowd. And the disciples were Christians by divine intimation first in Antioch.

²⁸ And one of them having risen, Agabus by name, signified by the Holy Spirit a great famine was about to be upon the whole habitable globe: which was during Claudius Caesar.

³⁰ Which also they did, having sent to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.

⁶ And when Herod was about to bring him before, in that night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the watch before the door kept the prison.

¹⁷ And having shaken with the hand at them to be silent, he related to them how the Lord brought him out of prison. And he said, Announce these things to James, and the brethren. And having come out, he went to another place.

²⁰ And Herod was fighting with violent animosity, with Tyrians and Sidonians: but they came unanimously to him, and having conciliated Blastus, him over the king's bed-chamber, they asked peace; for their country was nourished from the king's.

¹ And certain prophets and teachers were in the church being in Antioch; as Barnabas, and Simeon called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. ² And they serving the Lord, and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, Separate to me Barnabas and Saul to the work which I have called them.

⁴ Therefore these truly, sent forth by the Holy Spirit, came down to Seleucia and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.

¹⁶ And Paul having risen, and shaken with the hand, said, Men, Israelites, and ye fearing God, hear ye.

⁵⁰ And the Jews urged on the worshipping and distinguished women, and the first men of the city, and they raised up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and they cast them out of their bounds,

² And the unbelieving Jews excited and trained up the souls of the nations against the brethren.

⁵ And when there was a violent effort of the nations, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to be insolent, and to stone them,

¹⁹ And Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds, and stoned Paul, drew out of the city, supposing him to be dead.

²⁷ And having arrived, and gathered the church together, they announced what God did with them, and that he opened the door of faith to the nations.

¹ And certain having come down from Judea taught the brethren, That except ye be circumcised by Moses custom, ye cannot be saved. ² Therefore dissension and no small discussion having been to Paul and Barnabas with them, they arranged for Paul and Barnabas to go up, and certain others of them, to the sent and elders in Jerusalem about this question. ³ Truly therefore the sent by the church passed through Phenice and Samaria, relating the turning back of the nations: and they made great joy to all the brethren. ⁴ And having arrived at Jerusalem they were received by the church, and the sent and elders, and they announced what God did with them. ⁵ And certain of them from the sect of the Pharisees having believed, rose up, saying, That they must be circumcised, and to enjoin to keep the law of Moses. ⁶ And the sent and elders were gathered together to see about this word.

¹² And all the multitude were silent, and heard Barnabas and Paul, recounting what signs and wonders God did in the nations through them. ¹³ And after they were silent, James answered, saying, Men, brethren, hear me:

¹⁹ Wherefore I judge, not to molest them, from the nations turning back to God:

¹⁹ Wherefore I judge, not to molest them, from the nations turning back to God: ²⁰ But to send to them, to keep off from pollutions of images, and harlotry, and strangulation, and blood.

²⁰ But to send to them, to keep off from pollutions of images, and harlotry, and strangulation, and blood. ²¹ For Moses of ancient generations has them proclaiming him in every city, being read in the synagogues in every sabbath. ²² Then it seemed fitting to the sent and the elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, leading men among the brethren: ²³ Having written by their hand thus; The sent and elders and brethren to the brethren in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia from the nations, health: ²⁴ Since we heard that certain of us having come out have troubled you with words, destroying your souls, saying, To be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we sent no word:

²⁹ To keep off from things sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and strangulation, and harlotry: from which keeping yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

³⁹ Therefore there was an incitement, so that they separated from one another: and Barnabas, having taken Mark, sailed to Cyprus;

⁴¹ And he passed through Syria and Cilicia, supporting the churches.

³ Him Paul wished to go forth with him; and having taken, he circumcised him, on account of the Jews being in those places: for all knew his father that he was a Greek.

⁶ And having passed through Phrygia and the Galatian country, hindered by the Holy Spirit from speaking the word in Asia,

¹⁰ And when he saw the vision, we quickly sought to come out to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord called us to announce good news to them.

¹⁰ And when he saw the vision, we quickly sought to come out to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord called us to announce good news to them. ¹¹ Therefore having been conveyed from Troas, we ran straight forward to Samothracia, and the following day to Neapolis;

¹³ And the day of the sabbaths we came out of the city by the river, where prayer was customary to be; and having sat down, we spake to the women come together.

¹⁶ And it was we going for prayer, a certain young girl having the spirit of Python met us, who furnished much gain to her lords, prophesying:

¹⁹ And her lords having seen that the hope of their gain went out, taking Paul and Silas, they drew to the assembly to the rulers, ²⁰ And having brought them to the generals, they said, These the men who cause disturbance to our city, being Jews, ²¹ And they announce customs, which it is not lawful for us to receive, nor do, being Romans. ²² And the crowd set together against them: and the generals having rent their garments, commanded to scourge with rods.

³⁷ But Paul said to them, Having stripped us publicly not condemned, being Roman men, they cast into prison and now do they cast us out secretly? not so; but having come themselves, let them bring us out.

⁵ And the unbelieving Jews, having been jealous, and having taken certain evil men of the vulgar, and excited to tumult, they disturbed the city by loud noise, and having stood against the house of Jason, they sought to bring them to the populace.

⁵ And the unbelieving Jews, having been jealous, and having taken certain evil men of the vulgar, and excited to tumult, they disturbed the city by loud noise, and having stood against the house of Jason, they sought to bring them to the populace. ⁶ And not having found them, they drew Jason and certain brethren to the rulers of the city, crying, That those having subverted the habitable globe, these also are present here;

¹⁰ And the brethren quickly sent out both Paul and Silas by night to Berea: who arriving went away to the synagogue of the Jews.

¹³ And when the Jews from Thessalonica heard that also in Berea the word of God was announced by Paul, they came there also, agitating the crowd.

¹² And Gallio being proconsul of Achaia, the Jews arose unanimously against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,

¹⁷ And all the Greeks having taken Sosthenes, ruler of the synagogue, beat before the judgment seat. And,Gallio cared for none of these. ¹⁸ And Paul yet having remained sufficient days, having taken leave of the brethren, sailed out to Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn the head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow. ¹⁹ And Paul arrived at Ephesus, and left those of his: and he having come into the synagogue, discussed with the Jews.

²² And having come down to Cesarea having gone up and greeted the church, he went down to Antioch.

¹ And it was in Apollos' being in Corinth, Paul having passed through the higher parts, caine to Ephesus: and having found certain disciples,

²⁶ And ye see and hear that not only Ephesus, but almost all Asia, this Paul having persuaded, changed a sufficient crowd, saying, that they are not gods made by hands: ²⁷ And not only this part is in danger to us to come to reproach; but also the temple of the great goddess Diana to be reckoned for nothing, and her greatness also about to be destroyed, whom the whole of Asia and the habitable globe worship. ²⁸ And having heard, and been filled with wrath, they cried, saying, Great the Diana of the Ephesians. ²⁹ And the whole city was filled With confusion, and they rushed unanimously into the theatre, having taken away together Gains and Aristarchus, Macedonians, Paul's companions of the journey. ³⁰ And Paul wishing to come in to the people, the disciples suffered him not.

³² Others truly cried some other things: for the church was confused; and the most knew not for what they had come together. ³³ And they forced Alexander out of the crowd, the Jews having put him forward. And Alexander having shaken the hand, wished to justify himself to the people.

⁴⁰ For we are also in danger to be called in question for this day, being no cause for which we shall be able to give back word of this confederation.

⁴ And there agreed with him as far as Asia Sopater a Berean; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus: and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and Asians, Tychicus and Trophimus.

⁶ And we sailed forth after the days of unleavened from Philippi, and came to them in Troas up to five days; where we tarried seven days.

⁶ And we sailed forth after the days of unleavened from Philippi, and came to them in Troas up to five days; where we tarried seven days. ⁷ And in one of the sabbaths, the disciples having been assembled together to break bread, Paul conversed with them being about to go forth the morrow; and he continued the word until midnight.

¹³ And we having gone before to the ship, sailed to Assos, there being about to take up Paul: for so had he ordered, being about himself to go on foot.

¹⁶ For Paul determined to sail to Ephesus, as it might not be to him to spend the time in Asia: for he hastened, if it were possible to him, to be in Jerusalem the day of Pentecost. ¹⁷ And having sent from Miletus to Ephesus, he called for the elders of the church.

²² And now, behold, I, bound in the spirit, am going to Jerusalem, not knowing the things going to happen to me in it;

²² And now, behold, I, bound in the spirit, am going to Jerusalem, not knowing the things going to happen to me in it; ²³ But that the Holy Spirit testifies in the city, saying that bonds and pressures await me.

²³ But that the Holy Spirit testifies in the city, saying that bonds and pressures await me. ²⁴ But the word of none do I make mine own, neither have I my soul highly prized to myself, in order to finish my course with joy, and the service which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the good news of the grace of God.

³⁶ And having said these, having placed his knees, he prayed with them all. ³⁷ And much weeping was from all; and having fallen upon Paul's neck, they kissed him,

³⁷ And much weeping was from all; and having fallen upon Paul's neck, they kissed him, ³⁸ Grieving chiefly for the word which he spake, that they are about to see his face no more. And they sent him forward to the ship.

³⁸ Grieving chiefly for the word which he spake, that they are about to see his face no more. And they sent him forward to the ship.

³ And having been shown Cyprus, and left it at the left hand, we sailed to Syria, and were conveyed to Tyre: for thither was the ship discharging the lading. ⁴ And having found disciples, we remained there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, not to go up to Jerusalem.

⁴ And having found disciples, we remained there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, not to go up to Jerusalem.

⁷ And we having finished the voyage from Tyre, arrived at Ptolemais, and having greeted the brethren, we remained one day with them. ⁸ And the morrow, they about Paul having come out, came to Cesarea: and having come to Philip's house, bearer of good news, being of the seven, we remained with him.

¹⁰ And we remaining many days, a certain prophet came down from Judea, by name Agabus.

¹⁰ And we remaining many days, a certain prophet came down from Judea, by name Agabus. ¹¹ And having come to us, and lifted up Paul's girdle, and bound his hands and feet, he said, Thus says the Holy Spirit, The man whose is this girdle, shall the Jews so bind in Jerusalem, and they shall deliver him into the hands of the nations.

¹¹ And having come to us, and lifted up Paul's girdle, and bound his hands and feet, he said, Thus says the Holy Spirit, The man whose is this girdle, shall the Jews so bind in Jerusalem, and they shall deliver him into the hands of the nations. ¹² And when we heard these things, both we, and the nations, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.

¹⁶ And there came also with us of disciples from Cesarea, bringing with whom we should be received as guests to a certain Mnason Of Cyprus, an ancient disciple.

¹⁹ And having greeted them, he recounted to each one what things God had done among the nations through his service.

²¹ And they were taught about thee, that thou teachest apostasy from Moses, all the Jews among the nations, saying, they are not to circumcise children, nor walk in the customs.

²⁴ Having taken these, be purified with them, and expend upon them, that they might shave the head: and all might know that what they are taught about thee is nothing; but thou proceedest in regular order, also thyself watching the law.

²⁶ Then Paul having taken the men, in the following day having been purified with them, went into the temple, announcing the completion of the days of purification, till an offering be brought for each one of them.

²⁸ Crying out, Men, Israelites, help: This is the man, teaching all, everywhere, against the people, and the law, and this place: and yet also brought the Greeks into the temple, and has polluted this holy place.

³³ Then the captain of a thousand, having drawn near, took him, and commanded to be bound with two chains; and inquired who he might be, and what he had done. ³⁴ And other cried what other in the crowd: and not being able to know certainly for the uproar, he commanded him to be brought into the camp. ³⁵ And when he was upon the steps, it happened, he was borne by the soldiers for the violence of the crowd.

³⁷ And being about to be brought into the camp, Paul says to the captain of a thousand, Is it lawful for me to speak anything to thee? and he said, Hast thou knowledge in Greek? ³⁸ Art not thou then the Egyptian, who before these days having risen up, and having brought into the desert four thousand men of murderers?

⁴⁰ And having given way, Paul standing upon the steps, shook with the hand to the people. And being much silence, he spake in the Hebrew dialect, saying,

² (And having heard that he spake to them in Hebrew dialect, they held more silence: and he says,) ³ I am truly a Jew, a man born in Tarsus, of Cilicia, and brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, instructed according to the exactness of the fathers' law, being zealous of God, as all ye are this day.

¹⁹ And I said, Lord, these know that I was imprisoning and skinning in the synagogues them believing on thee:

²² And they heard him to this word, and lifted up their voices, saying, Take away such a one from the earth: for it is not suitable for him to live.

²⁴ The captain of a thousand commanded him to be brought to the camp, having spoken to examine him by scourges; that he might know for what cause they exclaimed so against him.

²⁴ The captain of a thousand commanded him to be brought to the camp, having spoken to examine him by scourges; that he might know for what cause they exclaimed so against him. ²⁵ And as he held him before with thongs, Paul said to the centurion standing by, Is it lawful to scourge a man a Roman, and uncondemned?

²⁵ And as he held him before with thongs, Paul said to the centurion standing by, Is it lawful to scourge a man a Roman, and uncondemned?

²⁵ And as he held him before with thongs, Paul said to the centurion standing by, Is it lawful to scourge a man a Roman, and uncondemned? ²⁶ And the centurion having heard, having come near announced to the captain of a thousand, See what thou art about to do: for this man is a Roman. ²⁷ And the captain of a thousand having come near, said to him, Tell me if thou art a Roman. And he said, Yes. ²⁸ And the captain of a thousand answered, I obtained this citizenship for much capital. And Paul said, And I have been born. ²⁹ Then quickly they about to examine him withdrew from him: and the captain of a thousand was afraid, knowing that he is a Roman, and because he had bound him.

²⁹ Then quickly they about to examine him withdrew from him: and the captain of a thousand was afraid, knowing that he is a Roman, and because he had bound him. ³⁰ And on the morrow, wishing to know the certainty that why he was accused by the Jews, he loosed him from bonds, and commanded the chief priests and the whole of their council to come, and having brought down Paul, he set him among them.

¹⁰ And there being much dissension, the captain of a thousand, having dreaded lest Paul be torn asunder by them, commanded the army, having gone down, to snatch him from the midst of them, and bring into the camp.

¹⁶ And Paul's sister's son having heard of the ambuscade, having approached, and come into the camp, announced to Paul. ¹⁷ And Paul having called one of the centurions, said, Bring this young man to the captain of a thousand; for he has something to announce to him.

²³ And having called two certain of the centurions, he said, Prepare two hundred soldiers, so that they go to Cesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred having held spears in the right hand, at the third hour of the night;

²³ And having called two certain of the centurions, he said, Prepare two hundred soldiers, so that they go to Cesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred having held spears in the right hand, at the third hour of the night; ²⁴ And to bring forward cattle to set Paul upon, that they might carry through safely to Felix the leader.

²⁷ This man having been taken by the Jews, and being about to be killed by them: having stood with an army, I took him away, having learned that he is a Roman.

³² And the morrow; having suffered the horsemen to go with him, they returned to the camp:

³⁴ And the leader having read, and asked of what province he is, and having understood from Cilicia;

⁵ For having found this man a scourge, and moving sedition to all Jews in the habitable globe, and standing in the first rank of the sect of Nazarites: ⁶ And who attempted to profane the temple: whom we also seized, and wished to judge according to our law.

⁶ And who attempted to profane the temple: whom we also seized, and wished to judge according to our law.

¹⁸ In which they found me purified in the temple, not with the crowd, nor with uproar, and certain Jews from Asia.

²² And having heard these, Felix deferred them, knowing more accurately the things of the way, having said, When Lysias captain of a thousand shall come down, I will examine narrowly things concerning you.

²⁷ And two years completed, Felix took Porcius Festus, a successor: and wishing to render a favor to the Jews, Felix left Paul bound.

¹ Festus therefore having come to the province, after three days went up to Jerusalem from Cesarea.

⁶ And having tarried with them more than ten days, having gone down to Cesarea, on the morrow, having sat upon the judgment seat, he commanded Paul to be brought.

⁹ And Festus, wishing to render a favor to the Jews, having answered Paul, said, Wilt thou, having gone up to Jerusalem, there be judged by me of these things?

¹³ And certain days having intervined, Agrippa the king and Bernice arrived at Cesarea, having saluted Festus.

¹⁶ To whom I answered, That it is not the custom to Romans to yield up any man to destruction, before that the accused may have the accusers before the face, and take place for defence for the accusation.

²³ Therefore the morrow, Agrippa having come, and Bernice, with much display, and having come into the hall, also with captains of thousands, and men of the city being in eminence, and Festus having commanded, Paul was brought.

²⁶ Of whom I have not anything certain to write to the lord. Wherefore I brought him to you, and especially to thee, king Agrippa, so that, examination having been, I should have some thing to write.

⁹ I therefore truly thought to myself, I must do many things contrary to the name of Jesus, the Nazarite. ¹⁰ Which I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the holy ones I shut up in prison, having received authority from chief priests; and they taken up, I carried down a vote.

¹⁴ And we having all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking to me, and saying in the Hebrew dialect, Saul, Saul, why drivest thou me out? hard for thee to kick against goads.

²⁰ But to them in Damascus first, and Jerusalem, and all the country of Judea, and to the nations, announcing to change the mind, and to turn back to God, doing works worthy of change of mind. ²¹ For these things, me the Jews, having seized in the temple, attempted to kill with their own hands.

²¹ For these things, me the Jews, having seized in the temple, attempted to kill with their own hands.

²⁹ And Paul said, I would pray to God also in little, and in much, not only thee, but also all hearing me this day to become such, of what kind I also am, besides these bonds.

¹ And when it was determined for us to sail to Italy, they delivered Paul and certain others bound to a centurion named Julius, of Augustus' band. ² And having embarked in a ship of Adramyttium, being about to navigate places in Asia, we were conveyed; Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.

⁴ And conveyed from thence, we sailed to Cyprus, for the winds were contrary.

⁶ And there the centurion having found an Alexandrian ship sailing to Italy, placed us upon it.

¹¹ And after three months we were conveyed in a ship, having wintered in the island, of Alexandria, marked, Sons of Jove. ¹² And brought down to Syracuse, we tarried yet three days longer.

¹⁴ Where having found brethren, we were besought by them to tarry yet seven days longer: and so we came to Rome.

¹⁶ And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the commander of the camp: but to Paul it was permitted to remain by himself with a soldier watching him. ¹⁷ And it was after three days Paul called together them being first of the Jews: and they having come together, he said to them, Men, brethren, I having done nothing against the people, or customs of the fathers, I was delivered in bonds from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.

²⁰ For this cause therefore I besought to see you, and to speak: for, for the hope of Israel am I surrounded by this chain.

²⁵ And being at variance with one another, they were let go, Paul having said one word, That well spake the Holy Spirit by Esaias the prophet to our fathers,

³⁵ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? pressure, or perplexity, or expulsion, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? ³⁶ As has been written, That for thy sake we are killed the whole day; we were reckoned as sheep for slaughter. ³⁷ But in all these we obtain a complete victory by him having loved us.

² For I testify for them that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

¹ Him being weak in faith receive ye, not to judgments of conversations. ² One truly believes to eat all things: and he being weak eats vegetables. ³ Let not him eating despise him not eating: and let not him not eating judge him eating: for God has received him. ⁴ Who art thou judging another's servant? to his own lord he stands or falls. And he shall be made to stand: for God is powerful to make him stand. ⁵ For one truly judges day above day: and one judges every day. Let each one be perfectly certain in his own mind. ⁶ He minding the day, minds to the Lord; and he not minding the day, to the Lord he minds not. He eating, eats to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he not eating, to the Lord he eats not, and he gives thanks to God.

⁶ That unanimously in one mouth ye should glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁷ Wherefore receive ye one another, as also Christ received us to the glory of God.

⁷ Wherefore receive ye one another, as also Christ received us to the glory of God.

⁹ And the nations to glorify God for mercies; as has been written, For this will I acknowledge to thee in the nations; and I will play on, the harp to thy name. ¹⁰ And again he says, Rejoice, ye nations, with his people. ¹¹ And again, Praise the Lord, all ye nations; and land him all ye people. ¹² And again Esaias says, The root shall be of Jesse, and he having risen to rule over the nations; upon him shall the nations hope. ¹³ And may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, for you to abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit.

¹⁸ For I shall dare to speak nothing that Christ has not brought about by me, for the obedience of the nations, by word and by work, ¹⁹ By power of signs and wonders, by power of the Spirit of God, so that I from Jerusalem, and round about even to Illyricum, have completed the good news of Christ.

⁷ Embrace Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen, and my fellowprisoners, who are distinguished among the sent, who also have been in Christ before me.

⁵ Who then is Paul, and who Apollos, but servants by whom ye believed, and to each as the Lord gave? ⁶ I have planted, Apollos watered; but God increased. ⁷ So that neither he planting is anything, neither he watering; but God increasing. ⁸ And he planting and he watering are one: and each shall receive his own reward according to his own labor. ⁹ For we are workers together with God: the agriculture of God, ye are the building of God.

¹³ Being defamed, we entreat: as the filth of the world were we become, the offscouring of all until now.

¹⁸ Whoever was called circumcised? let him not be drawn to himself. Whoever was called in uncircumeision? let him not be circumcised. ¹⁹ Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commands of God.

²⁵ But for virgins I have not an order of the Lord: and I give an opinion as compassionated by the Lord to be faithful. ²⁶ I think therefore this to be good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man to be thus. ²⁷ Hast thou been bound to a wife? seek not a release. Hast thou been loosed from a wife seek thou not a wife. ²⁸ And if also thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she has not sinned. And such shall have pressure to the flesh: and I spare you. ²⁹ And this I say, brethren, the time is restricted; as to the rest, that they also having wives should be as not having; ³⁰ And they weeping, as not weeping; and they rejoicing, as not rejoicing; and they buying, as not possessing. ³¹ And they using this world, as not using; for the form of this world passes away. ³² But I will you to be free from care. The unmarried cares for things of the Lord, how he shall please the Lord: ³³ And he married cares for the things of the world, how he shall please the wife. ³⁴ The wife and virgin have been divided. The unmarried cares for the things of the Lord, that she might be holy also in body and spirit: and she married cares for the things of the world, how she shall please her husband.

³⁸ So that he marrying does well; and he not marrying does better.

¹⁹ For being free from all, I have subjected myself to all, that I might gain the more. ²⁰ And I was to the Jews as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews: to them under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them under the law;

²⁰ And I was to the Jews as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews: to them under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them under the law; ²¹ To the lawless, as lawless, (not being lawless to God, but subject to the law to Christ,) that I might gain the lawless,

⁴ Every man praying or prophesying, having on the head, shames his head. ⁵ And every woman praying or prophesying with head uncovered shames her head: for it is one and the same to her having been shaved.

¹⁰ And by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which in me was not vain; but I was more abundantly wearied than they all: and not I, but the grace of God which with me.

³¹ In the day I die by: your boasting which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.

¹³ I have had no relaxation to my spirit, in my not finding Titus my brother: but having taken leave of them, I went out to Macedonia.

¹⁰ Always bearing about in the body the death of the Lord Jesus, that also the life of Jesus be made manifest in our body. ¹¹ For we, the living, are always delivered to death for Jesus, that also the life of Jesus be made manifest in our mortal flesh. ¹² So that death is truly energetic in us, and life in you. ¹³ And having the same spirit of faith, according to that written, I believed, therefore I spake: and we believe, and therefore we speak; ¹⁴ Knowing that he having raised the Lord Jesus will also raise us by Jesus, and present us with you. ¹⁵ For all things for you, that grace, having abounded by the many, might abound in thanksgiving to the glory of God. ¹⁶ Wherefore we lose not courage; but if also our man without is destroyed, but he within is renewed day and day. ¹⁷ For the present moment the lightness of our pressure works to us an eternal weight of glory, as eminence upon eminence;

¹ And working together, we also beseech, lest also ye receive the grace of God in vain.

²³ Are they Christ's servants? (I speak being light-headed) I above; in toils more abundant, in blows more excessively, in watchings more abundantly, in deaths often.

²³ Are they Christ's servants? (I speak being light-headed) I above; in toils more abundant, in blows more excessively, in watchings more abundantly, in deaths often. ²⁴ Of the Jews five times I received forty, except one.

²⁴ Of the Jews five times I received forty, except one. ²⁵ Thrice was I scourged with rods, once was I stoned, thrice suffered I shipwreck, I have made a night and day in the deep;

²⁵ Thrice was I scourged with rods, once was I stoned, thrice suffered I shipwreck, I have made a night and day in the deep; ²⁶ In journeys often, in dangers of rivers, in dangers of robbers, in dangers of the family, in dangers from the nations, in dangers in the city, in dangers in solitude, in dangers in the sea, in dangers with false brethren;

²⁶ In journeys often, in dangers of rivers, in dangers of robbers, in dangers of the family, in dangers from the nations, in dangers in the city, in dangers in solitude, in dangers in the sea, in dangers with false brethren;

²⁶ In journeys often, in dangers of rivers, in dangers of robbers, in dangers of the family, in dangers from the nations, in dangers in the city, in dangers in solitude, in dangers in the sea, in dangers with false brethren; ²⁷ In fatigue and toil, in watchfulnesses often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.

²⁷ In fatigue and toil, in watchfulnesses often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness. ²⁸ Besides things outside, my distraction daily, the care of all the churches. ²⁹ Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I am not inflamed ³⁰ If I must boast, I will boast things of my weakness. ³¹ God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ knows, he being praised forever, that I lie not. ³² In Damascus king Aretas' governor watched the city of the Damascenes, wishing to seize me ³³ And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and I escaped from his hands.

¹² Surely the signs of one sent was wrought in you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and powers.

¹⁴ And I advanced in Judaism above many like in my race, being more abundantly zealous of paternal traditions.

¹⁹ And other of the sect I saw not, except James the Lord's brother.

²⁴ And they glorified God in me.

⁹ And having known the grace given to me, James, and Cephas, and John, seeming to be pillars, gave me and Barnabas the right hands of communion; that we for the nations, and they for the circumcision.

¹² For before certain came from James, he ate with the nations: and when they came, he drew down, and separated himself, being afraid of them of the circumcision.

¹ Therefore in the liberty which Christ has freed us, stand ye, and be not again held in the yoke of servitude. ² Behold, I Paul say to you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. ³ And again to any man circumcised, I testify, that he is debtor to do the whole law. ⁴ Ye were neglected from Christ, whoever are justified in the law; ye have fallen from grace. ⁵ For we in spirit by faith expect the hope of justice. ⁶ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has any power, nor uncircumcision; but faith being energetic through love.

¹² As many as: wish to have an agreeable demeanor in the flesh, they compel you to be circumcised; only lest they should be driven out for the cross of Christ. ¹³ For neither they being circumcised themselves observe the law; but they wish you to be circumcised, that they might boast in your flesh. ¹⁴ And it may not be to me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world. ¹⁵ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision has any power, nor uncircumcision but a new creation.

¹ For this, I Paul, the imprisoned of Christ Jesus for you the nations,

¹ Therefore I, the imprisoned in the Lord, beseech you to walk Worthy of the calling which ye were called,

¹¹ And truly he gave the sent; and the prophets; and the bearers of good tidings; and the shepherds, and the teachers;

²⁰ For which I am an ambassador in perplexity: that in it I might speak freely, as I ought to speak.

²⁰ According to my anxious expectation, and hope, that in nothing shall I be ashamed, but in all freedom of speech, as always, and now shall Christ be Magnified in my body, whether by life, whether by death. ²¹ For me to live is Christ, and to die gain.

¹⁷ But if also I am poured out upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I rejoice, and rejoice together with you all.

²⁶ Since he was longing for you all, and harassed because ye heard that he was sick.

²⁴ Now I rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill again the necessities of the pressures of Christ in my flesh for his body, which is the church.

²⁹ For which also I am wearied, struggling according to his operation, working in me in power.

¹⁷ And we, brethren, having been separated from you for a due measure of time, in face, not in heart, we were the more excessively zealous to see your face with much eager desire.

¹⁰ When he should come to be honoured in his holy ones, and to be admired in all the believing, (that our testimony among you was believed) in that day.

⁴ Desiring earnestly to see thee, remembering thy tears, that I may be filled with joy;

¹⁶ May the Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus; for many times he refreshed me, and was not ashamed of my perplexity: ¹⁷ But, being in Rome, he sought me very diligently, and found.

⁴ None making war is entangled with the affairs of life: that he may please him having enlisted him. ⁵ And also if any contend for a prize, he is not crowned, except he contend for a prize lawfully. ⁶ The farmer toiling must first participate in the fruits.

⁹ In which I suffer ill treatment, to bonds, as an evil doer; but the word of God has not been bound.

⁵ And thou be sober in all things, suffer ill treatment, do the work of the bearer of good news, render thy service perfectly certain. ⁶ For I am already poured out, and the time of my deliverance has been fixed.

²⁰ Erastus remained in Corinth: and Trophimus I left in Miletum sick.

⁹ By love I beseech rather, being such as Paul an aged man, and now also the imprisoned of Jesus Christ.

⁷ Wherefore (as the Holy Spirit says, If to day ye hear his voice,

¹⁰ Only in food and drinks, and different immersions, and precepts of the flesh, being placed till the time of amendment. ¹¹ And Christ being present, a chief priest of good things about to be, by a greater and more perfect tent, not made with hands, that is; not of this creation; ¹² Neither by the blood of he-goats and calves, and by his own blood he went in once for all to the holies, having found eternal deliverance. ¹³ For if the blood of bulls and he-goats, and the ashes of a heifer besprinkling the polluted, consecrates to the purity of the flesh: ¹⁴ How much more shall the blood of Christ, who by the eternal Spirit offered himself blameless to God, purify your consciousness from dead works to serve the living God?

³⁴ For ye also suffered together with me in bonds, and received the pillage of your possessions with joy, knowing to have in yourselves a better and abiding substance in the heavens.

¹ Let brotherly love remain. ² Forget not hospitality: for by this some knew not having treated angels with friendship.

²⁴ Greet all them guiding you, and all the holy.

¹ James, servant of God and the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes in the dispersion, health.

¹² To whom it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to us they were serving these things, which now have been again proclaimed to you by them having announced the good news in the Holy Spirit sent from heaven; into which angels eagerly desire to stoop and creep.

¹⁵ And consecrate the Lord God in your hearts: and being ready always for a justification to every one asking you the word of the hope in you with meekness and fear:

¹⁵ For let not any of you suffer as a murderer, or thief, or doing evil, or as an inspector, in what pertains to others. ¹⁶ And if as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; and let him praise God in this portion.

¹⁴ Knowing that the laying aside of my tent is swift; as also our Lord Jesus Christ manifested to me.

¹³ I write to you, fathers, for ye have known him from the beginning. I write to you, young men, for ye have conquered the evil. I write to you, young children, for ye have known the Father. ¹⁴ I wrote to you, fathers, for ye have known him from the beginning. I wrote to you, young men, for ye are strong, and the word of God remains in you, and ye have conquered the evil.

⁷ For, for his name went they forth, receiving nothing from the nations. ⁸ Therefore ought we to receive such, that we might be workers together in the truth.

¹⁰ I was in the Spirit In the day pertaining to the Lord, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, saying,

²⁰ But I have a few things against thee, for thou sufferest the woman Jezebel, calling herself a prophetess, to teach and to lead my servants astray to commit fornication, and to eat things offered to idols.

¹⁰ For thou didst keep the word of my patience, and I will keep thee from the hour of temptation, about to come upon the whole habitable globe, to try them dwelling upon the earth.

¹¹ And they have a king over them, the angel of the abyss, the name to him in Hebrew Abaddon, and in Greek he has the name Apollyon.

¹¹ And they conquered him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their souls till death.

¹⁶ And he gathered them together in a place called in Hebrew Armageddon.

⁶ And I heard as the voice of the vast multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of powerful thunders, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God, the Omnipotent Ruler, reigned. ⁷ Let us rejoice, and be transported with joy, and let us give glory to him: for the marriage of the Lamb came, and his wife prepared herself.
