²⁰ In what way also our High–priests and Rulers delivered him up unto a sentence of death, and crucified him. ²¹ We, however, were hoping that, he, was the one destined to redeem Israel! But indeed, even with all these things, this brings on, the third, day, since these things happened:–– ²² Nay! certain women also, from amongst us, have made us beside ourselves, in that they went early unto the tomb; ²³ and, not finding his body, came, saying––that, a vision of messengers, they had seen, who were affirming him to be alive. ²⁴ And certain of them who were with us departed unto the tomb,––and found so, according as, the women, had said; but, him, they saw not. ²⁵ And, he, said unto them––O thoughtless ones! and slow in heart to rest your faith upon all things which the prophets have spoken:–– ²⁶ Was it not needful for the Christ, these very things, to suffer, and to enter into his glory? ²⁷ And, beginning from Moses, and from all the prophets, he thoroughly explained to them, in all the Scriptures, the things concerning himself.

⁴⁶ and said unto them––Thus, it is written, That the Christ, should suffer, and arise from among the dead on the third day;

¹⁹ Jesus answered, and said unto them––Take down this shrine, and, in three days, will I raise it. ²⁰ The Jews, therefore, said––In forty and six years, was this shrine built. And, thou, in three days, wilt raise it! ²¹ But, he, was speaking concerning the shrine of his body. ²² When, therefore, he had been raised from among the dead, his disciples remembered, that, this, he had been saying; and they believed in the Scripture, and in the word which Jesus had spoken.

¹⁹ And Pilate wrote a title also, and placed on the cross; and there was written––JESUS, THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS. ²⁰ This title, therefore, read many of the Jews, because, near, was the place to the city where Jesus was crucified; ad it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, in Greek.

¹⁰ Be it known unto you all, and unto all the people of Israel: that, in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene,––whom, ye, crucified, whom, God, raised from among the dead, in him, doth, this man stand by, in your presence, whole.

³⁸ How God anointed him with Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed by the adversary, because, God, was with him. ³⁹ We also, are witnesses of all things which he did, both in the country of the Jews and Jerusalem; whom they even slew by suspending upon a tree; –– ⁴⁰ The same, God raised up on the third day, and gave him to become, manifest,

³ For I delivered unto you, among the first things, what also I received:––how that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures, ⁴ And that he was buried, and that he hath been raised, on the third day, according to the Scriptures,–– ⁵ And that he appeared unto Cephas, then, to the twelve, ⁶ After that, he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once,––of whom, the greater number, remain until even now, but, some, have fallen asleep,–– ⁷ After that, he appeared unto James, then, unto all the apostles,

¹⁷ And, when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead, and he laid his right hand upon me, saying––Do not fear! I, am the First, and the Last, ¹⁸ and the Living One,––and I became dead; ––and lo! living, am I, unto the ages of ages, and have the keys of death and of hades.

³² But, after my arising, I will go before you into Galilee.

⁷ And, quickly going, tell his disciples––He hath arisen from the dead, and lo! he is going before you into Galilee; ––There, shall ye yourselves see him: Lo! I have told you.

¹⁰ Then, Jesus saith unto them––Be not afraid! Go your way, bear tidings unto my brethren, that they may depart into Galilee; and, there, shall they themselves see me.

¹⁶ And, the eleven disciples, went into Galilee, unto the mountain which, Jesus, had appointed them; ¹⁷ and, seeing him, they worshipped, but, some, doubted.

²⁸ But, after my arising, I will go before you into Galilee.

⁵⁰ And they, all, forsook, him, and fled.

⁶⁶ And, Peter, being, below in the court, there cometh one of the maid–servants of the High–priest; ⁶⁷ and, seeing Peter warming himself, having looked at him, saith––And, thou, wast, with the Nazarene––with Jesus. ⁶⁸ But, he, denied, saying––I neither know [him], nor do I well understand what, thou, sayest; and went out into the porch. ⁶⁹ And, the maid–servant, seeing him, began, again, to be saying unto the by–standers––This one, is, from among them. ⁷⁰ But, he, again, was denying. And, after a little again, the by–standers, were saying unto Peter––Truly, thou, art, from among them; for thou art, a Galilaean, also. ⁷¹ And, he, began to be cursing and swearing––I know not this man, of whom ye are speaking! ⁷² And, straightway, a second time, a cock, crowed; and Peter was reminded of the declaration, how Jesus had said to him––Before a cock, twice, crow, thrice, wilt thou deny me. And, when he thought thereon, he began to weep.

¹ After these things, Jesus manifested himself again, unto the disciples, by the sea of Tiberias; and manifested himself, thus:––

³¹ Who appeared, during many days, unto them who had come up with him from Galilee unto Jerusalem; who, indeed, [now] are his witnesses unto the people.

⁵ And that he appeared unto Cephas, then, to the twelve,

⁷ So that, on the contrary, ye should forgive and encourage, lest, by any means, by his excessive grief, such a one should be swallowed up.

²⁹ And he said to Gehazi––Gird thy loins, and take my staff in thy hand, and go thy way, if thou meet with any man, thou must not bless him, and, if any man bless thee, thou must not respond to him,––then shalt thou lay my staff upon the face of the boy.

⁸ And, departing quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to bring tidings unto his disciples.

⁵ And, entering into the tomb, they saw a young man, sitting on the right, clothed with a white robe,––and they were greatly alarmed. ⁶ But, he, saith unto them––Be not alarmed! Jesus, ye are seeking, the Nazarene, the crucified: He hath arisen! he is not here,––See! the place where they laid him!

⁴ Be not carrying purse, or satchel, or sandals, and, no one along the road, salute ye;

⁹ and, returning [from the tomb], reported all these things unto the eleven, and unto all the rest. ¹⁰ Now they were the Magdalene Mary, and Joana, and Mary the mother of James; and, the other women with them, were telling, unto the apostles, these things. ¹¹ And these sayings appeared before them, as if idle talk, and they were minded to disbelieve them.

²² Nay! certain women also, from amongst us, have made us beside ourselves, in that they went early unto the tomb; ²³ and, not finding his body, came, saying––that, a vision of messengers, they had seen, who were affirming him to be alive. ²⁴ And certain of them who were with us departed unto the tomb,––and found so, according as, the women, had said; but, him, they saw not.

³⁷ But, being agitated and becoming, afraid, they began to imagine, that, upon a spirit, they were looking.

⁵⁶ among whom was Mary the Magdalene, also Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

² and certain women, who had been cured from evil spirits and infirmities,––Mary, the one called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone forth,

¹⁰ Now they were the Magdalene Mary, and Joana, and Mary the mother of James; and, the other women with them, were telling, unto the apostles, these things.

¹² and beholdeth two messengers, in white garments, sitting, one at the head, and the other at the feet, where had been lying the body of Jesus.

¹⁴ These things saying, she turned round, and seeth Jesus standing, and knew not that it was, Jesus. ¹⁵ Jesus saith unto her––Woman! why weepest thou? Whom seekest thou? She, supposing he was, the gardener, saith unto him––Sir! If, thou, hast borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him; and, I, will take him away. ¹⁶ Jesus saith unto her––Mary! She, turning saith unto him, in Hebrew––Rabboni! which meaneth, Teacher. ¹⁷ Jesus saith unto her––Be not detaining me, for, not yet, have I ascended unto the Father; but be going unto my disciples, and say unto them––I am ascending unto my Father and your Father, and my God and your God. ¹⁸ Mary the Magdalene cometh, bringing tidings unto the disciples––I have seen the Lord! and that these things he had said unto her.
¹⁹ It being late, therefore, on that day, the first of the week,––and, the doors, having been made fast where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came, and stood in the midst, and saith unto them––Peace be unto you!

⁷ And, on the first of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul went on to discourse with them, being about to depart on the morrow; and he prolonged his discourse until midnight.

² Upon the first of the week, let, each one of you, put, by itself, in store, as he may be prospering,––lest, as soon as I come, then, collections, should be in progress.

¹⁰ I came to be, in Spirit, in the Lord’s Day, and heard, behind me, a loud voice, as of a trumpet,

¹⁵ And Jesus said unto them,––Can, the sons of the bridechamber, mourn, so long as, the bridegroom, is, with them? But days will come, when the bridegroom, shall be taken from them, and, then, will they fast.

³⁰ And, then, will be displayed––The sign of the Son of Man in heaven, and, then, will smite their breasts––all the tribes of the earth; and they will see the Son of Man––coming upon the clouds of heaven, with great power and glory.

⁷² And, straightway, a second time, a cock, crowed; and Peter was reminded of the declaration, how Jesus had said to him––Before a cock, twice, crow, thrice, wilt thou deny me. And, when he thought thereon, he began to weep.

¹⁷ And he said unto them––What are these things which ye are debating one with another, as ye walk along? And they came to a stand, sad in countenance.

⁶ But, because, these things, I have told you, sorrow, hath filled your heart.

²⁰ Verily, verily, I say unto you––Ye, shall weep and lament, but, the world, shall rejoice: Ye, shall be grieved, but, your grief, into joy, shall be turned. ²¹ A woman, as soon as she is about to bring forth, hath, grief, because her hour hath come; but, as soon as she hath given birth to the child, no longer, remembereth she the anguish, by reason of the joy, that a human being into the world hath been born. ²² And, ye, therefore, now, indeed have grief; but, again, will I see you, and your heart shall rejoice,––and, your joy, no one, shall force from you.

¹⁸ Mary the Magdalene cometh, bringing tidings unto the disciples––I have seen the Lord! and that these things he had said unto her.

⁹ And Moses spake thus, unto the sons of Israel,––but they hearkened not unto Moses, through shortness of spirit, and through hard service.

¹⁶ Though I had called, and he had answered me, I could not believe, that he would lend an ear to my voice.

¹⁹ But, he, answering, saith––O faithless generation! how long, shall I be with you? how long, shall I bear with you? Bring him unto me!

¹³ and, they, departing, bare tidings unto the rest,––but, even them, they believed not.
¹⁴ But, afterwards, unto the eleven themselves, as they reclined, was he manifested, and he upbraided their disbelief and hardness of heart,––because, them who had looked upon him when arisen [from among the dead] they believed not;

¹¹ And these sayings appeared before them, as if idle talk, and they were minded to disbelieve them.

²³ and, not finding his body, came, saying––that, a vision of messengers, they had seen, who were affirming him to be alive. ²⁴ And certain of them who were with us departed unto the tomb,––and found so, according as, the women, had said; but, him, they saw not. ²⁵ And, he, said unto them––O thoughtless ones! and slow in heart to rest your faith upon all things which the prophets have spoken:–– ²⁶ Was it not needful for the Christ, these very things, to suffer, and to enter into his glory? ²⁷ And, beginning from Moses, and from all the prophets, he thoroughly explained to them, in all the Scriptures, the things concerning himself. ²⁸ And they drew near unto the village, whither they were journeying; and, he, made for journeying, further. ²⁹ And they constrained him, saying––Abide with us; because it is, towards evening, and the day hath already declined. And he went in to abide with them. ³⁰ And it came to pass, when he reclined with them, taking the loaf, he blessed, and, breaking it, went on to give unto them. ³¹ And, their, eyes were opened, and they knew him; and, he, vanished from them. ³² And they said one to another––Was not, our heart, burning, as he was speaking to us in the way, as he was opening to us the Scriptures? ³³ And, arising in that very hour, they returned unto Jerusalem,––and found, gathered together, the eleven, and them who were with them, ³⁴ saying––In truth, the Lord hath arisen, and hath appeared unto Simon! ³⁵ And, they, went on to relate the things, [that had passed] on the journey, and how he was made known unto them in the breaking of the loaf.

¹⁴ But, afterwards, unto the eleven themselves, as they reclined, was he manifested, and he upbraided their disbelief and hardness of heart,––because, them who had looked upon him when arisen [from among the dead] they believed not;

¹³ And lo! two from among them, on the selfsame day, were journeying unto a village, distant sixty furlongs from Jerusalem, the name of which, was Emmaus; ¹⁴ and, they, were conversing one with another, about all these things which had occurred. ¹⁵ And it came to pass, as they were conversing and reasoning together, that, Jesus himself, drawing near, was journeying with them; ¹⁶ but, their eyes, were held, so as not to know him. ¹⁷ And he said unto them––What are these things which ye are debating one with another, as ye walk along? And they came to a stand, sad in countenance. ¹⁸ But one, by name Cleopas, answering, said unto him––Art, thou, lodging, alone, in Jerusalem, and knowest not the things which have come to pass therein in these days? ¹⁹ And he said unto them––What things? And, they, said unto him––The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who became a prophet, mighty in work and word, before God and all the people: ²⁰ In what way also our High–priests and Rulers delivered him up unto a sentence of death, and crucified him. ²¹ We, however, were hoping that, he, was the one destined to redeem Israel! But indeed, even with all these things, this brings on, the third, day, since these things happened:–– ²² Nay! certain women also, from amongst us, have made us beside ourselves, in that they went early unto the tomb; ²³ and, not finding his body, came, saying––that, a vision of messengers, they had seen, who were affirming him to be alive. ²⁴ And certain of them who were with us departed unto the tomb,––and found so, according as, the women, had said; but, him, they saw not. ²⁵ And, he, said unto them––O thoughtless ones! and slow in heart to rest your faith upon all things which the prophets have spoken:–– ²⁶ Was it not needful for the Christ, these very things, to suffer, and to enter into his glory? ²⁷ And, beginning from Moses, and from all the prophets, he thoroughly explained to them, in all the Scriptures, the things concerning himself. ²⁸ And they drew near unto the village, whither they were journeying; and, he, made for journeying, further. ²⁹ And they constrained him, saying––Abide with us; because it is, towards evening, and the day hath already declined. And he went in to abide with them. ³⁰ And it came to pass, when he reclined with them, taking the loaf, he blessed, and, breaking it, went on to give unto them. ³¹ And, their, eyes were opened, and they knew him; and, he, vanished from them. ³² And they said one to another––Was not, our heart, burning, as he was speaking to us in the way, as he was opening to us the Scriptures?

¹⁴ This, already, is the third time Jesus was manifested unto the disciples, after he was raised from among the dead.

³¹ But he said unto him––If, unto Moses and the Prophets, they do not hearken, neither, if one, from among the dead, should arise, would they be persuaded.

²⁵ The other disciples, therefore, were saying unto him––We have seen the Lord! But, he, said unto them––Except I see, in his hands, the print of the nails, and press my finger into the print of the nails, and press my hand into his side, in nowise will I believe.

¹¹ Then said Yahweh unto Moses, How long must this people, despise me? And, how long can they not believe in me, in view of all the signs which I have done in their midst?

⁸ Do not harden your heart as at Meribah, As on the day of Massah, in the desert; ⁹ When your fathers, tested me, They proved me, yea they also saw what I could do. ¹⁰ Forty years, loathed I that generation, So I said––A people going astray in heart, they are, Even they, have not known my ways! ¹¹ And I sware in mine anger,––Verily they shall not enter into my rest.

²⁰ Then, began he to upbraid the cities, in which had been done his noblest mighty works; because they repented not:––

¹⁶ And, he, said, To this moment, are, ye also, without discernment? ¹⁷ Perceive ye not that, every thing which entereth into the mouth, into the stomach, findeth way, and, into the draught, is passed;

⁸ And, observing it, Jesus said––Why are ye deliberating among yourselves, ye little–of–faith! because, loaves, ye have not? ⁹ Not yet, perceive ye, neither remember,––The five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye received? ¹⁰ Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many hampers ye received? ¹¹ How is it ye perceive not, that, not concerning loaves, spake I unto you,––but beware of the leaven, of the Pharisees and Sadducees?

²⁰ And, he, saith unto them––Because of your little faith. For, verily, I say unto you––If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say to this mountain, remove hence yonder; and it shall be removed, and, nothing, shall be impossible to you.

¹⁸ And he saith unto them––Thus, are, ye also, without discernment? Perceive ye not that, nothing, from without, entering into the man, can defile him;

¹⁷ And, taking note, he saith unto them––Why do ye deliberate, because ye have no, loaves? Not yet perceive ye, neither understand,––keep ye your hearts, hardened? ¹⁸ Eyes having, see ye not? and ears having, hear ye not? and remember ye not

¹¹ And, they, hearing that he was living, and had been looked upon by her, disbelieved. ¹² But, after these things, unto two from among them, as they were walking, was he manifested, in a different form, as they were going unto a country place; ¹³ and, they, departing, bare tidings unto the rest,––but, even them, they believed not.

²⁵ And, he, said unto them––O thoughtless ones! and slow in heart to rest your faith upon all things which the prophets have spoken:––

³⁶ Now, as, these very things, they were telling, he himself, stood in their midst [and saith unto them––Peace to you!] ³⁷ But, being agitated and becoming, afraid, they began to imagine, that, upon a spirit, they were looking. ³⁸ And he said unto them––Why are ye troubled? and for what cause do reasonings arise in your hearts? ³⁹ See my hands, and my feet,––that it is, I, myself: Handle me, and see! because, a spirit, hath not, flesh and bones, as ye perceive, I, have. ⁴⁰ [And, this saying, he pointed out to them his hands and his feet.] ⁴¹ Now, while yet they believed not for the joy, and were marveling, he said unto them––Have ye anything to eat, here? ⁴² And they gave unto him a piece of boiled fish; ⁴³ and, taking it before them, he did eat.

¹⁹ It being late, therefore, on that day, the first of the week,––and, the doors, having been made fast where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came, and stood in the midst, and saith unto them––Peace be unto you! ²⁰ and, this, saying he pointed out both his hands and his side unto them. The disciples, therefore, rejoiced, seeing the Lord.

²⁷ Then, saith he unto Thomas––Reach thy finger hither, and see my hands, and reach thy hand, and press into my side,––and become not disbelieving, but believing.

⁷ Wherefore,––according as saith the Holy Spirit––Today, if, unto his voice ye would hearken, do not ⁸ harden your hearts,––as in the embitterment, in the day of testing in the desert,

¹⁵ So long as it is said––Today, if, unto his voice, ye would hearken, do not harden your hearts,––as in the embitterment. ¹⁶ For, who, though they heard, caused embitterment? Nay, indeed! did not all who come forth out of Egypt through Moses? ¹⁷ But, with whom, was be sore vexed forty years? Was it not with them who sinned, whose dead bodies fell in the desert? ¹⁸ But, unto whom, sware he, that they should not enter into his rest,––save unto them who were obstinate? ¹⁹ And we see, that they were not able to enter, because of unbelief.

¹⁹ I, as many as I tenderly love, I convict and put under discipline: be zealous, therefore, and repent.

²⁷ All the ends of the earth, will remember and turn to Yahweh, Yea all the families of the nations, will bow themselves down before thee,

¹ [To the Chief Musician. With stringed Instruments. A Melody, a Song.]
God, be favorable to us and bless us, Cause his face to shine upon us. [Selah.] ² That thy way may be known throughout the earth, Throughout all nations, thy saving help!

³ Recount, Among the nations, his glory, Among all the peoples, his wonders.

³ He hath remembered his lovingkindness and his faithfulness towards the house of Israel,––All the ends of the earth, have seen, the salvation of our God.

¹⁰ Sing to Yahweh, a song that is new, His praise, from the end of the earth,––Ye that go down to the sea, and the fulness thereof, The Coastlands, and ye who dwell therein. ¹¹ Let the wilderness, shout, and the cities thereof, The villages, wherein dwelleth Kedar,––Let the inhabitants of the crag, raise shouts of triumph, From the top of the mountains, let them cry aloud: ¹² Let them render, unto Yahweh, glory,––And, his praise, in the Coastlands, let them tell.

²² Turn unto me––and be ye saved, all ye ends of the earth,––For, I, am GOD, and there is none else.

⁶ Yea he said––It is too small a thing, for being my, Servant, That thou shouldest raise up the tribes of Jacob, And, the preserved of Israel, shouldst restore,––So I will give thee to become a light of nations, That, my salvation, may reach as far as, the end of the earth.

¹⁰ Yahweh hath bared his holy, arm, in the eyes of all the nations, So shall all the ends of the earth see, the salvation of our God.

¹ Arise––shine, For thy light, hath come,––And, the glory of Yahweh, on thee, hath beamed; ² For lo! darkness, covereth the earth, And, deep gloom, the peoples,––But, on thee, beameth Yahweh, And, his glory, on thee, is seen. ³ So shall nations come, to thy light, And kings, to the brightness of thy dawning.

⁵ These twelve, Jesus sent forth, charging them, saying:––Into any way to the nations, do not depart,––and, into any city of Samaritans, do not enter; ⁶ But be going, rather, unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

¹⁹ Go ye, therefore, and disciple all the nations, Immersing them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,––

¹⁰ And, unto all the nations, first, must needs be proclaimed, the glad–message.

¹⁰ And the messenger said unto them––Be not afraid! For lo! I bring you good tidings of a great joy, the which shall be for all the people: ¹¹ That there hath been born unto you, this day, a saviour,––Who is Christ the Lord––in the city of David!

³¹ Which thou hast prepared in face of all the peoples: ³² A light for the unveiling of nations, and the glory of thy people Israel.

²¹ And, going near, the servant reported unto his lord these things. Then, provoked to anger, the master of the house said unto his servant––Go out quickly, into the broadways and streets of the city,––and, the destitute, and tried, and blind, and lame, bring thou in here. ²² And the servant said––Lord! what thou didst order, hath been done; and, yet, there is, room. ²³ And the lord said unto the servant––Go out among the highways and fences, and compel them to come in; that my house may be filled.

⁴⁷ And that repentance for remission of sins should be proclaimed upon his name unto all the nations,––beginning from Jerusalem. ⁴⁸ Ye, are witnesses of these things.

¹⁶ Not, ye, chose, me, but, I, chose you, and placed you, that ye should go your way and bear, fruit,––and, your fruit, should abide: that, whatsoever ye should ask the Father in my name, he might give unto you.

²¹ Jesus, therefore, said unto them, again,––Peace be unto you! Just as, my Father, sent me forth, I, also, send you.

⁸ But ye shall receive power when the Holy Spirit cometh upon you, and ye shall be my witnesses, both in Jerusalem and [in] all Judaea and Samaria and as far as the uttermost part of the land.

¹⁸ But I say: Have they not heard? Yea indeed,––into all the earth, hath gone forth their sound, and, unto the ends of the inhabited world, their declarations.

²⁶ But now made manifest, and through means of prophetic scriptures, according to the command of the age–abiding God, for obedience of faith unto all the nations made known,

¹⁷ And, coming, he announced the glad–message––of peace, unto you, the far off, and peace, unto them that were nigh;

⁶ When it presented itself unto you; even as, in all the world also, it is bearing fruit and growing, even as also among you, from the day when ye heard, and came personally to know the favour of God in truth,

²³ If, at least, ye are abiding still in the faith, founded and firm, and not to be moved away from the hope of the glad–message which ye have heard, which hath been proclaimed in all creation which is under heaven,––of which, I Paul, have become minister.

¹⁴ And, we, for ourselves have gazed, and are bearing witness––that, the Father, sent forth the Son, as Saviour of the world.

⁶ And I saw another messenger, flying in mid–heaven, having an age–abiding glad–message to announce unto them who are dwelling upon the earth, even unto every nation and tribe and tongue and people,

¹⁵ [and saying]––The season is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God hath drawn near,––Repent ye, and have faith in the glad–message.

¹² And, those beside the pathway, are they who have heard; afterwards, cometh the adversary, and catcheth away the word from their heart, lest, believing, they should, be saved.

¹² But, as many as did receive him, he gave, unto them, authority, children of God, to become,––unto them who were believing on his name: ¹³ Who––not of bloods, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but––of God, were born.

⁵ Jesus answered––Verily, verily, I say unto thee: Except one be born of water and spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

¹⁵ That, whosoever believeth in him, may have life age–abiding. ¹⁶ For God, so loved, the world, that, his Only Begotten Son, he gave,––that, whosoever believeth on him, might not perish, but have life age–abiding.

¹⁸ He that believeth on him, is not to be judged: he that believeth not, already, hath been judged,––because he hath not believed on the name of the Only Begotten Son of God. ¹⁹ And, this, is the judgment: That, the light, hath come into the world,––and men loved, rather the darkness than the light, for, wicked, were their, works.

³⁶ He that believeth on the Son, hath life age–abiding: whereas, he that yieldeth not unto the Son, shall not see life,––but, the anger of God, awaiteth him.

²⁴ Verily, verily, I say unto you: He that heareth, my word, and believeth in him that sent me, hath life age–abiding, and, into judgment, cometh not, but hath passed over, out of death into life.

²⁹ Jesus answered, and said unto them––This, is the work of God: that ye believe on him whom, he, hath sent forth.

³⁵ Jesus said unto them––I, am the bread of life: he that cometh unto me, in nowise shall hunger, and, he that believeth on me, in nowise shall thirst, any more.

⁴⁰ For, this, is the will of my Father, That, every one that vieweth the Son, and believeth on him, should have life age–abiding, and, I, should raise him up, at the last day.

³⁷ Now, on the last––the great––day of the feast, Jesus was standing, and he cried aloud, saying––If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink: ³⁸ He that believeth on me––just as said the Scripture,––River, from within him, shall flow, of living water.

²⁴ Therefore said I unto you, Ye shall die in your sins: For, if ye believe not that, I, am he, ye shall die in your sins.

²⁵ Jesus said unto her––I, am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth on me, even though he die, shall live again! ²⁶ And, no one who liveth again and believeth on me, shall in anywise die, unto times age–abiding. Believest thou this?

⁴⁶ I, a light, into the world have come, that, no one who believeth on me, in darkness, should abide. ⁴⁷ And, if anyone shall hearken unto my sayings, and not guard them, I, am not judging him; for I came not that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world. ⁴⁸ He that setteth me aside, and receiveth not my sayings, hath that which is to judge him: The word that I spake, that, will judge him, in the last day.

³¹ but, these, are written, that ye may believe that, Jesus, is, the Christ, the Son of God; and that, believing, ye may have life in his name.

³⁸ And Peter [said] unto them––Repent ye, and let each one of you be immersed, in the name of Jesus Christ, into the remission of your sins,––and ye shall receive the free–gift of the Holy Spirit;

⁴¹ They, therefore, who welcomed his word, were immersed; and there were added, on that day, about three thousand souls.

³⁶ And, as they were journeying along the way, they came unto a certain water,––and the eunuch saith––Lo! water! What doth hinder my being immersed? ³⁷ <> ³⁸ And he commanded the chariot to stand still; and they went down, both, into the water, both Philip and the eunuch,––and he immersed him. ³⁹ But, when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, and the eunuch saw him no more; for he was going on his way rejoicing.

⁴³ Unto the same, do all the prophets bear witness, That, remission of sins, is to be received through his name, by every one that believeth on him.

³⁹ And, from all things from which ye could not, by the law of Moses, be justified, by this man, everyone that believeth, is justified.

⁴⁶ And Paul and Barnabas, speaking boldly, said––Unto you, was it necessary, that the word of God should first be spoken: seeing ye are thrusting it from you, and, unworthy, are judging yourselves of the age–abiding life, lo! we turn unto the nations;

³⁰ and, leading them forth outside, said––Sirs! what must I be doing, that I may be saved? ³¹ And, they, said––Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, thou, and thy house. ³² And they spake unto him the word of God, with all who were in his house.

¹⁶ And, now, what art thou going to do? Arise, and get thyself immersed, and have thy sins bathed away, calling upon his name.

⁶ Far be it! Else how shall God judge the world?

²⁴ But for our sakes also––unto whom it is to be reckoned,––even unto them that believe upon him who raised Jesus our Lord from among the dead:

⁹ That, if thou shalt confess the declaration with thy mouth––That Jesus is, Lord, and shalt believe with thy hear––That, God, raised him from among the dead, thou shalt be saved; –– ¹⁰ For, in heart, it is to be believed unto righteousness, and, by mouth, it is to be confessed unto salvation. ¹¹ For the scripture saith––No one that resteth faith thereupon, shall be put to shame?
¹² For there is no distinction––of Jew or Greek,––for, the same [Lord], is Lord of all, being rich unto all who call upon him; ¹³ For, Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved:–– ¹⁴ How, then, shall men call upon one in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in one of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear, without one to proclaim?

⁸ In a fiery flame; holding forth vengeance––against them that refuse to know God, and them who decline to hearken unto the glad–message of our Lord Jesus,

¹² In order that should be judged who would not believe in the truth, but were well–pleased with the unrighteousness.

³⁸ But, my righteous one, by faith, shall live, and, if he draw back, my soul delighteth not in him. ³⁹ We, however, are not of a drawing back unto destruction, but, of faith, unto an acquisition of life.

²¹ who, through him, are faithful towards God,––Who raised him from among the dead, and glory to him gave, So that your faith and hope are directed towards God:

²¹ Which [water] in manner corresponding, doth, now, save, you also––even immersion,––not a putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the request unto God, for a good conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,––

¹⁰ He that believeth on the Son of God, hath the witness, within himself: He that doth not believe God, false, hath made him,––because he hath not believed on the witness which, God, hath witnessed, concerning his Son–– ¹¹ And, this, is the witness:––that, life age–abiding, hath God given unto us, and, this life, is, in his Son: ¹² He that hath the Son, hath, the life,––he that hath not the Son of God, hath not, the life. ¹³ These things, have I written unto you––in order that ye may know that ye have, Life Age–abiding––unto you who believe on the name of the Son of God.

¹⁵ And, if anyone was not found, in the book of life, written, he was cast into the lake of fire.

⁸ But, as for the timid, and disbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all the false, their part, is in the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone,––which is the second death.

³⁸ John said unto him––Teacher! we saw someone, in thy name, casting out demons,––and we forbade him, because he was not following with us.

¹⁷ And the seventy[–two] returned, with joy, saying––Lord! even the demons, submit themselves unto us, in thy name!

¹² Verily, verily, I say unto you––He that believeth on me, the works which, I, am doing, he also, shall do; and, greater than these, shall he do, because, I, unto the Father, am going,––

⁴ And they were all filled with Holy Spirit, and began to be speaking with other kinds of tongues just as the Spirit was giving unto them to be sounding forth.
⁵ Now there were in Jerusalem sojourning Jews, reverent men from every nation who were under heaven; ⁶ And this sound occurring the throng came together and was thrown into confusion, because each one severally heard in his own language them who were speaking; ⁷ Yea they were beside themselves and did marvel, saying––Lo! are not all these who are speaking Galilaeans? ⁸ How then do, we, hear each one in our own language in which we were born? ⁹ Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those dwelling in Mesopotamia, Judaea also and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, ¹⁰ Phrygia also and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of the Libya that is towards Cyrene, and the sojourning Romans,––both Jews and proselytes, ¹¹ Cretans and Arabians, we do hear them speaking in our own tongues the magnificent things of God.

³³ By the right hand of God, therefore, having been exalted, also, the promise of the Holy Spirit, having received from the Father, He hath poured out this which, yourselves, do see and hear.

¹⁶ Moreover even the throng of the cities all round Jerusalem was coming together, bearing sick folk, and such as were harassed by impure spirits,––who, indeed, were being cured, one and all.

⁷ For, from many who had impure spirits, shouting with a loud voice, they were going out, and, many that were paralysed and lame, were cured.

⁴⁶ For they heard them speaking with tongues, and magnifying God. Then answered Peter––

¹⁸ And, this, she continued to do for many days. But Paul, worn out, and turning unto the spirit, said––I charge thee, in the name of Jesus Christ, to come out from her. And it came out the same hour.

⁶ and, Paul laying hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they began speaking with tongues and prophesying.

¹² so that, even unto the sick, were being carried from his body, handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases were departing from them, and, the wicked spirits, were going out.
¹³ But certain also of the wandering Jews, exorcists, took in hand to be naming, over them that had the wicked spirits, the name of the Lord Jesus, saying––I adjure you, by Jesus whom Paul proclaimeth! ¹⁴ And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, a High–priest, who, this thing, were doing. ¹⁵ But the wicked spirit. Answering, said unto them––Jesus, [indeed], I am getting to know, and, Paul, I well–know,––but who are, ye? ¹⁶ And the man in whom was the wicked spirit, springing upon them, mastering them both, prevailed against them, so that, naked and wounded, fled they out of that house.

¹⁰ And, unto another, energies of mighty works, [and], unto another, prophesying, [and], unto another, discriminations of spirits,––unto a different one, kinds of tongues, and, unto another, translation of tongues; ––

²⁸ And God hath, indeed, set, certain, in the assembly,––first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that mighty works, then gifts of healings, helps, guidings, kinds of tongues.

³⁰ Have, all, gifts of healings? Do, all, with tongues, speak? Do, all, translate?

¹ Although with the tongues of men, I be speaking, and of messengers, and have not, love, I have become resounding brass, or a clanging cymbal;

² For, he that speaketh with a tongue, not unto men, doth speak, but, unto God,––for, no one, understandeth, although, in spirit, he is speaking sacred secrets;

⁴ He that speaketh with a tongue, buildeth up, himself, whereas, he that prophesieth, buildeth up, an assembly. ⁵ Howbeit I wish you all to speak with tongues, but, rather, that ye may prophesy,––moreover, greater, is he that prophesieth, than he that speaketh with tongues,––unless indeed he translate, that, the assembly, may receive upbuilding.
⁶ But, now, brethren––if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit, you, except I speak, unto you, either by way of revelation, or knowledge, or prophesying, or teaching? ⁷ In like manner, the things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, if, a distinction in the sounds, they do not give, how shall it be known, what is being piped or harped? ⁸ For, if also, an uncertain sound, a trumpet, should give, who shall prepare himself for battle? ⁹ So, also, ye, through means of the tongue, except ye give intelligible discourse, how shall it be known what is being spoken? for ye will be speaking, to the air. ¹⁰ There may happen to be so many kinds of languages in the world, and, not one, unspoken:–– ¹¹ If, then, I do not know the meaning of the language, I shall be, unto him that is speaking, a foreigner, and, he that is speaking, shall be, in my case, a foreigner. ¹² So, ye, also––since ye are, envious, of spirits, unto the upbuilding of the assembly, seek to be pre–eminent. ¹³ Wherefore, he that speaketh with a tongue, let him pray that he may translate; ¹⁴ [For], if I am praying in a tongue, my spirit, is praying, but, my mind, is unfruitful.
¹⁵ What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, but I will pray also with the mind,––I will strike the strings with the spirit, [but] I will strike the strings also with the mind. ¹⁶ Else, if thou be blessing in a spirit, he that filleth up the place of the ungifted person, how shall he say the Amen upon thy thanksgiving? since indeed, what thou art saying, he knoweth not; ¹⁷ For, thou, indeed, excellently art giving thanks, but, the other, is not being built up. ¹⁸ I give thanks unto God!––More than ye all, am I speaking with tongues; ¹⁹ But, in assembly, I desire to speak five words with my mind, that, others also, I may instruct, than myriads of words in a tongue. ²⁰ Brethren! do not become children, in your understandings; but, in baseness, become babes, while, in your understandings, ye become, full–grown.
²¹ In the law, it is written––With strange tongues, and with lips of strangers, will I speak unto this people; and, not even so, will they hearken unto me,––saith the Lord. ²² So that, the tongues, are for a sign––not unto them that believe, but, unto them that believe not; whereas, prophesying, is not for them that believe not, but, for them that believe. ²³ If, then, the whole assembly come together with one consent, and, all, are speaking with tongues,––and there come in persons unskilled or unbelieving, will they not say that ye are raving? ²⁴ But, if, all, be prophesying,––and there come in one who is unbelieving or unskilled, he is convicted by all, he is searched by all, the secrets of his heart, become manifest, ²⁵ And, so, falling down upon his face, he will do homage unto God, reporting that, in reality, God is, among you.
²⁶ What, then, is it, brethren? Whensoever ye are coming together, each one, hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath a translation:––let, all things, be done, unto building up.

¹⁵ And, enmity, will I put between thee, and the woman, and between thy seed, and her seed,––He, shall crush thy head, But, thou, shalt crush his heel.

³⁹ And one went out into the field, to gather herbs, and found a vine in the field, and gathered thereof wild gourds, his lap full, and came in, and sliced them into the pot; for they knew them not. ⁴⁰ So they poured out for the men to eat,––and it came so pass, as they were eating of the mess, that, they, made outcry and said––Death in the pot, O man of God! And they could not eat. ⁴¹ And he said––Then fetch meal. And he cast it into the pot,––and then said––Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot.

¹³ On the lion and adder, shalt thou tread, Shalt trample on young lion and crocodile.

²³ and beseecheth him much, saying––My little daughter is at her last!––that, coming, thou wouldest lay thy hands upon her, that she may be made well, and live;

¹⁹ Lo! I have given you the authority––to be treading upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and, nothing, unto you, shall in anywise do harm;

⁶ But Peter said––Silver and gold, have none, but, what I have, the same, unto thee do I give:––In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, Walk! ⁷ And, laying hold of him by the right hand, he raised him up; and, instantly, were his feet and ankles strengthened; –– ⁸ And, leaping forward, he stood and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking and leaping and praising God.

¹² And Peter, seeing it, made answer unto the people:––Ye men of Israel! Why marvel ye at this man? Or, upon us, why are ye intently looking, as though, by our own power or godliness, we had made him walk?

¹⁶ And, by the faith of his name, unto this man whom ye see and know, hath his name given strength,––yea, the faith which is through him, hath given unto him this perfect soundness, over against you all!

²² For, more than forty years old, was the man, upon whom had taken place, this healing sign.

³⁰ By stretching forth thy hand for healing, and by the coming to pass of both signs and wonders, through the name of thy holy servant Jesus.

¹⁵ So that, even into the broad–ways, were they bringing forth the sick, and laying them on small couches and beds, in order that, if Peter were coming along, even perchance his shadow, might overshadow some one of them. ¹⁶ Moreover even the throng of the cities all round Jerusalem was coming together, bearing sick folk, and such as were harassed by impure spirits,––who, indeed, were being cured, one and all.

¹⁷ And Ananias departed, and entered into the house; and, laying upon him his hands, said––Saul, brother! The Lord, hath sent me,––Jesus, who appeared unto thee in the way by which thou wast coming,––that thou mayest recover sight, and be filled with Holy Spirit. ¹⁸ And, straightway, there fell from him––from his eyes,––as it were scales; he recovered sight also, and, arising, was immersed:

³⁴ And Peter said unto him––Aeneas! Jesus Christ healeth thee! Arise, and smooth thy bed for thyself. And, straightway, he arose.

⁴⁰ But Peter, putting them all outside, knelt down and prayed; and, turning towards the body, said––Tabitha, arise! And she, opening her eyes and seeing Peter, sat up. ⁴¹ And, giving her his hand, he raised her up; and, calling the saints and the widows, presented her, living. ⁴² And it became known throughout the whole of Joppa, and many believed upon the Lord.

¹² so that, even unto the sick, were being carried from his body, handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases were departing from them, and, the wicked spirits, were going out.

³ But, when Paul had gathered a certain lot of firewood into a bundle, and laid it on the fire, a viper, by reason of the heat, coming forth, fastened on his hand. ⁴ And, when the natives saw the brute hanging out from his hand, they began to say, one to another––Doubtless, this man is, a murderer, whom, though brought safely through out of the sea, Justice, hath not suffered, to live. ⁵ He, however, shaking of the brute into the fire, suffered no harm; ⁶ whereas, they, were expecting, that he was about to become inflamed, or to fall down suddenly dead; ––but, when they had been long expecting, and had observed, nothing unusual, happening unto him, they changed their minds, and began to say he was a god.

⁸ And it so happened that, the father of Publius, with feverish heats and dysentery distressed, was lying prostrate: unto whom Paul entering in and praying, laid his hands on him, and healed him. ⁹ And, when this happened, the rest also, even they in the island who were sick, were coming in and getting cured;

²⁰ Howbeit, the God of peace, will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The favour of our Lord Jesus, be with you.

⁹ Unto a different one, faith, in the same Spirit, and, unto another, gifts of healings, in the one Spirit,

¹⁴ Sick, is any among you? Let him call unto him the elders of the assembly, and let them pray for him, anointing him with oil in the name [of the Lord]; –– ¹⁵ And, the prayer of faith, shall save the exhausted one, and the Lord will raise him up, and, if he have committed, sins, it shall be forgiven him.

The declaration of Yahweh to my Lord––Sit thou at my right hand, Until I make thy foes thy footstool.

¹⁸ And Jesus, coming near, spake unto them, saying––All authority, in heaven and on earth, hath been given unto me; ¹⁹ Go ye, therefore, and disciple all the nations, Immersing them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,–– ²⁰ Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I myself have commanded you, And lo! I, am, with you, all the days, until the conclusion of the age.

⁵¹ And it came to pass, when the days for taking him up were on the point of being fulfilled, even he himself, set, his face, to be journeying unto Jerusalem;

⁴⁴ And he said unto them––These, are my words, which I spake unto you yet being with you: That all the things that are written in the law of Moses and the Prophets and Psalms, concerning me, must needs be fulfilled. ⁴⁵ Then, opened he their mind, to understand the Scriptures; ⁴⁶ and said unto them––Thus, it is written, That the Christ, should suffer, and arise from among the dead on the third day; ⁴⁷ And that repentance for remission of sins should be proclaimed upon his name unto all the nations,––beginning from Jerusalem. ⁴⁸ Ye, are witnesses of these things. ⁴⁹ And lo! I, am sending forth the promise of my Father upon you; but tarry, ye, in the city, until ye be clothed, from on high, with power.
⁵⁰ And he led them forth as far as unto Bethany; and, uplifting his hands, he blessed them. ⁵¹ And it came to pass, while he was blessing them, he parted from them [and was born up into heaven.]

⁶² [What] then, if ye should view the Son of Man ascending where he was before? . . .

¹ Now, before the feast of the passover, Jesus, knowing that his hour had come, that he should remove out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own that were in the world, unto the end, loved them.

²⁸ I came forth out of the Father, and have come into the world,––Again, I leave the world, and go, unto the Father.

⁴ I, glorified thee on the earth, The work, finishing, which thou hast given me that I should do. ⁵ And, now, glorify me––thou, Father! with thyself, with the glory which I had, before the world’s existence, with thee.

¹³ But, now, unto thee, am I coming; and, these things, am I speaking in the world, that they may have my own joy fulfilled in themselves.

¹⁷ Jesus saith unto her––Be not detaining me, for, not yet, have I ascended unto the Father; but be going unto my disciples, and say unto them––I am ascending unto my Father and your Father, and my God and your God.

¹⁵ When, therefore, they had broken their fast, Jesus saith unto Simon Peter––Simon, son of John! lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him––Yea, Lord! thou, knowest that I am fond of thee, he saith unto him––Be feeding my lambs.

²² Jesus saith unto him––If I will that, he, remain until I come, what is that to thee? Thou, be following me.

² Until the day when, having given command unto the apostles, whom through Holy Spirit he had chosen, he was taken up; ³ Unto whom he also presented himself alive, after he had suffered, by many sure tokens, throughout forty days making himself visible unto them, and speaking the things concerning the kingdom of God.

⁹ And having said these things, as they were beholding, he was lifted up, and a cloud caught him away from their eyes. ¹⁰ And, while they were looking steadfastly into heaven as he was going his way, then lo! two men had taken their stand beside them, in white garments,–– ¹¹ Who also said––Men of Galilee! why stand ye looking into heaven? This Jesus who hath been taken up from you into heaven, shall so come, in like manner as ye yourselves have gazed upon him going into heaven.

²¹ Unto whom, indeed, heaven must needs give welcome, until the times of the due establishment of all things, of which God hath spoken through the mouth of his holy age–past prophets.

⁵⁵ But he, being already full of Holy Spirit, looking steadfastly into heaven, saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God; ⁵⁶ And said––Lo! I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man, standing, on the right hand of God.

³⁴ Who is he that condemneth? Christ [Jesus] who died?––Nay! rather was raised [from among the dead], ––who is on the right hand of God, who also is making intercession in our behalf?

²⁴ Afterwards, the end––whensoever he delivereth up the kingdom unto his God and Father, whensoever he shall bring to nought all rule and all authority and power; ²⁵ For he must needs reign, until he shall put all his enemies under his feet:

²⁰ which he energised in the Christ, when he raised him from among the dead, and seated him at his right hand in the heavenlies, ²¹ Over–above all principality, authority, and power, and lordship, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in the coming one, ²² And did put, all things, in subjection beneath his feet. And gave him to be head over all things unto the assembly,

⁸ Wherefore he saith––Ascending on high, he took captivity captive, [and] gave gifts unto men. ⁹ Now this, He ascended; what is it,––save––that he also descended into the under parts of the earth? ¹⁰ He that descended, he, it is who also ascended over–above all the heavens, that he might fill all things; ¹¹ And, he, gave––some, indeed, to be apostles, and some, prophets, and some, evangelists, and some, shepherds and teachers,––

¹ If, therefore, ye have been raised together with the Christ, the things on high, be seeking, where, the Christ, is––on the right hand of God, sitting;

¹⁶ And, confessedly great, is the sacred secret of godliness,––Who was made manifest in flesh, was declared righteous in spirit, was made visible unto messengers, was proclaimed among nations, was believed on in the world, was taken up in glory.

³ Who, being an eradiated brightness of his glory, and an exact representation of his very being, also bearing up all things by the utterance of his power, purification of sins, having achieved, sat down on the right hand of the majesty in high places:

¹⁴ Having then a great high–priest who hath passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast the confession;

²⁰ Where a forerunner in our behalf hath entered, even Jesus, who, according to the rank of Melchizedek, hath become, a high–priest unto times age–abiding.

²⁶ For, such a high–priest as this, for us, was [even] suited: Loving, noble, undefiled, set apart from sinners, and become, higher than the heavens;

¹ A crowning point on the things being spoken:––such a one as this, have we, as high–priest, who hath sat down on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,––

²⁴ For, not into a Holy place made by hand, entered Christ,––counterpart of the real [Holy place]; but, into the heaven itself, now, to be plainly manifested before the face of God in our behalf; ––

¹² But this priest, having offered one sacrifice for sins evermore, sat down on the right hand of God: ¹³ As for the rest, waiting––until his foes be made his footstool;

¹⁹ Having therefore, brethren, freedom of speech for the entrance through the Holy place, by the blood of Jesus, ²⁰ Which entrance he hath consecrated for us, as a way recent and living, through the veil, that is, his flesh,–– ²¹ And having a great priest over the house of God, ²² Let us approach with a genuine heart, in full assurance of faith, having been sprinkled, as to our hearts, from an evil conscience, and bathed, as to our bodies, with pure water;

² Looking away unto our faith’s Princely–leader and perfecter, Jesus,––who, in consideration of the joy lying before him, endured a cross, shame, despising! And, on the right hand of the throne of God, hath taken his seat.

²² Who is on the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, messengers and authorities and powers, having been made subject unto him.

²⁰ Lo! I am standing at the door, and knocking; if anyone shall hearken unto my voice, and open the door, I will come in unto him, and will sup with him, and, he, with, me. ²¹ He that overcometh, I will give, unto him, to take his seat with me in my throne, as, I also, overcame, and took my seat with my Father in his throne.

¹ And, when the day of pentecost was filling up [the number of days] they were all together with one intent; –– ² When there came suddenly out of heaven a sound, just as of a mighty rushing wind,––and it filled all the house where they were sitting; ³ And there appeared unto them––parting asunder––tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each one of them; ⁴ And they were all filled with Holy Spirit, and began to be speaking with other kinds of tongues just as the Spirit was giving unto them to be sounding forth.
⁵ Now there were in Jerusalem sojourning Jews, reverent men from every nation who were under heaven; ⁶ And this sound occurring the throng came together and was thrown into confusion, because each one severally heard in his own language them who were speaking; ⁷ Yea they were beside themselves and did marvel, saying––Lo! are not all these who are speaking Galilaeans? ⁸ How then do, we, hear each one in our own language in which we were born? ⁹ Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and those dwelling in Mesopotamia, Judaea also and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, ¹⁰ Phrygia also and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of the Libya that is towards Cyrene, and the sojourning Romans,––both Jews and proselytes, ¹¹ Cretans and Arabians, we do hear them speaking in our own tongues the magnificent things of God. ¹² But they were all beside themselves and were utterly at a loss, saying one to another––What doth this please to be? ¹³ While, others, in mockery were saying––With sweet wine, are they drunken!
¹⁴ But, taking his stand, Peter with the eleven lifted up his voice, and sounded out unto them––Ye men of Judaea, and all ye who are sojourning in Jerusalem! Let, this, unto you be known, and give ear unto my declarations; –– ¹⁵ For not, as, ye, suppose, are these men drunken, for it is the third hour of the day; –– ¹⁶ But this is that which hath been spoken through the prophet Joel–– ¹⁷ And it shall be, in the last days saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and, your young men, visions shall see and, your elders, in dreams shall dream,–– ¹⁸ And, even upon my men–servants and upon my maid–servants in those days, will I pour out of my Spirit, and they shall prophesy; ¹⁹ And I will set forth wonders in the heaven above, and signs upon the earth beneath,––blood and fire and vapour of smoke: ²⁰ The sun, shall be turned into darkness and, the moon, into blood,––before the coming of the day of the Lord, the great and manifest [day]; ²¹ And it shall be––Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved. ²² Ye men of Israel! hear these words:––Jesus the Nazarene, a man pointed out of God unto you by mighty works and wonders and signs, which God did through him in your midst, just as ye yourselves know, ²³ The same, by the marked out counsel and foreknowledge of God given up, through the hands of lawless men, suspending, ye slew, ²⁴ Whom, God, raised up, loosing the pangs of death, inasmuch as it was, not possible, for him to continue held fast by it. ²⁵ For, David, saith concerning him––I foresaw the Lord before me continually, because he is, on my right hand, that I may not be shaken; ²⁶ For this reason, was my heart made glad and my tongue exulted,––ye further, even my flesh, shall encamp on hope: ²⁷ Because thou wilt not abandon my soul unto hades, neither wilt thou give thy man of lovingkindness to see corruption; ²⁸ Thou madest known unto me paths of life, thou wilt make me full of gladness with thy countenance.

¹² And, through the hands of the Apostles, were coming to pass many signs and wonders among the people; and they were all with one accord in the portico of Solomon;

⁴ They, indeed, therefore, who were scattered abroad, passed through, telling the good–news of the word; ⁵ And, Philip, going down unto the city of Samaria, proclaimed unto them the Christ. ⁶ And the multitudes began to give heed unto the things that were being spoken by Philip, with one accord, when they heard him, and saw the signs which he was working.

³ A good while, therefore, tarried they, using boldness of speech [in dependence] upon the Lord, who was bearing witness unto his word of favour, granting signs and wonders to be coming to pass through their hands.

⁸ And, a certain man in Lystra, impotent in his feet, was sitting,––lame from his mother’s womb, who never had walked. ⁹ This man, hearkened unto Paul, as he was speaking,––who, looking steadfastly at him, and seeing he had faith to be made well, ¹⁰ Said, with a loud voice––Stand up on thy feet, erect! And he sprang up, and began to walk about.

¹⁹ By the power of signs and wonders, by the power of [Holy Spirit]; so that I, from Jerusalem and in a circuit as far as Illyricum, have fulfilled the glad–message of the Christ,––

⁴ And, my discourse, and what I proclaimed, were not in suasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of Spirit and power: ⁵ In order that, your faith, might not be in men’s wisdom, but in God’s power.

⁶ I, planted, Apollos, watered,––but, God, caused to, grow. ⁷ So that, [neither] is he that planteth anything, nor, he that watereth,––but, God, who causeth to, grow. ⁸ Moreover, he that planteth and he that watereth, are one:––howbeit, each one, his own reward, shall receive,––according to his own labour. ⁹ For we are, God’s, fellow–workmen: ye are, God’s, farm, God’s building.

¹ As co–workers, however, we also beseech, that, not in vain, the favour of God, ye welcome;

⁴ God, jointly witnessing also, both with signs and wonders and manifold mighty works, and with distributions of Holy Spirit, according to his own will?
