Acts 16:38-28:16

38 The ho constables rhabdouchos reported apangellō · de these houtos words rhēma to the ho magistrates stratēgos. · ho And de they were afraid phobeomai when they heard akouō that hoti they were eimi Roman Rhōmaios citizens . 39 So kai they came erchomai and spoke parakaleō to them autos in a friendly manner ; and kai having taken exagō them out , they asked erōtaō them to leave aperchomai the ho city polis. 40 So de when they had left exerchomai the ho prison phylakē, they went eiserchomai to pros · ho Lydia’ s Lydia house; and kai when they saw the ho brothers adelphos, they encouraged parakaleō them and kai departed exerchomai.

17 Having passed diodeuō through · de · ho Amphipolis Amphipolis and kai · ho Apollonia Apollōnia, Paul and Silas came erchomai to eis Thessalonica Thessalonikē, where hopou there was eimi a synagogue synagōgē of the ho Jews Ioudaios. And de according kata to · ho Paul’ s Paulos custom eiōtha, · ho he went eiserchomai to pros them autos and kai for epi three treis Sabbath sabbaton days he reasoned dialegomai with them autos from apo the ho Scriptures graphē, explaining dianoigō and kai demonstrating paratithēmi that hoti it was necessary for dei the ho Messiah Christos to suffer paschō and kai to rise anistēmi from ek the dead nekros, and kai that hoti, “ This houtos one is eimi the ho Messiah Christos, this ho Jesus Iēsous whom hos I egō am proclaiming katangellō to you hymeis.” And kai some tis of ek them autos were persuaded peithō and kai cast prosklēroō their lot with · ho Paul Paulos and kai · ho Silas Silas, · ho both te a great polys number plēthos of devout sebō Greeks Hellēn and te not ou a few oligos of the ho leading prōtos women gynē. But de the ho Jews Ioudaios, moved by envy zēloō, · kai recruited proslambanō certain tis wicked ponēros men anēr of the ho marketplace agoraios and kai, forming a mob ochlopoieō, they set the ho city polis in an uproar thorybeō. · kai They attacked ephistēmi the ho house oikia of Jason Iasōn, trying zēteō to bring proagō them autos out proagō to eis the ho people dēmos. But de when they could not find heuriskō them autos, they dragged syrō Jason Iasōn and kai some tis fellow believers adelphos before epi the ho city politarchēs authorities , shouting boaō, “ These men houtos who ho have turned the ho world oikoumenē upside anastatoō down have come pareimi here enthade too kai, and Jason Iasōn has received hypodechomai them hos as guests hypodechomai; and kai all pas these houtos men are acting prassō contrary apenanti to the ho decrees dogma of Caesar Kaisar, saying legō that there is eimi another heteros king basileus, Jesus Iēsous.” And de they stirred tarassō up the ho people ochlos and kai the ho city politarchēs authorities who heard akouō these houtos things . And kai when they had taken lambanō · ho bail hikanos from para · ho Jason Iasōn and kai the ho others loipos, they let apolyō them autos go .

10 And de the ho brothers adelphos immediately eutheōs sent ekpempō Paul Paulos and kai Silas Silas off ekpempō by dia night nyx · ho · ho to eis Berea Beroia. When they hostis got paraginomai there , they went apeimi to eis the ho synagogue synagōgē of the ho Jews Ioudaios. 11 These houtos Jews · de were eimi more open-minded eugenēs than those ho in en Thessalonica Thessalonikē, for they hostis received dechomai the ho message logos with meta all pas eagerness prothumia, examining anakrinō the ho scriptures graphē every kata day hēmera to see if ei these houtos things were echō so houtōs. 12 So oun many polys of ek them autos believed pisteuō, with kai not ou a few oligos · ho prominent euschēmōn Greek Hellēnis women gynē · ho and kai men anēr. 13 But de when hōs the ho Jews Ioudaios from apo · ho Thessalonica Thessalonikē learned ginōskō that hoti also kai in en · ho Berea Beroia the ho word logos of ho God theos was proclaimed katangellō by hypo · ho Paul Paulos, they came erchomai there kakei too , inciting saleuō and kai stirring tarassō up the ho crowds ochlos. 14 Then tote immediately eutheōs · de · ho the ho brothers adelphos sent exapostellō Paul Paulos away , to go poreuō as heōs far as to epi the ho sea thalassa, but te · ho both te Silas Silas and kai · ho Timothy Timotheos remained hypomenō there ekei. 15 Those ho · de who conducted kathistēmi · ho Paul Paulos brought agō him as heōs far as Athens, and kai receiving lambanō an order entolē for pros · ho Silas Silas and kai · ho Timothy Timotheos to hina come erchomai to pros him autos as hōs soon tacheōs as possible , they left.

16 Now de · ho while Paul Paulos was waiting ekdechomai for them autos · ho at en Athens, his autos spirit pneuma was stirred paroxynō up · ho within en him autos on seeing theōreō the ho city polis full kateidōlos of idols . 17 So oun he reasoned dialegomai in en the ho synagogue synagōgē with the ho Jews Ioudaios and kai the ho worshippers sebō, and kai in en the ho marketplace agora every kata pas day hēmera with pros those ho who happened to be paratynchanō there . 18 Also kai some tis · de of the ho Epicurean Epikoureios and kai Stoic Stoikos philosophers philosophos were conversing symballō with him autos, and kai some tis were asking legō, “ What tis does this houtos babbler spermologos want thelō · ho to say legō?” Others ho said, · de He seems dokeō to be eimi a proclaimer katangeleus of strange xenos gods daimonion,” for hoti he was announcing the good news euangelizō about · ho Jesus Iēsous and kai the ho resurrection anastasis. 19 And te they took hold epilambanomai of him autos and brought agō him to epi the ho Areopagus pagos, saying legō, “ May dynamai we know ginōskō what tis is · ho this houtos new kainos · ho teaching didachē being presented laleō by hypo you sy? 20 For gar you bring eispherō some tis strange xenizō things to eis · ho our hēmeis ears akoē, so oun we want boulomai to know ginōskō what tis these houtos things mean eimi.” 21 ( Now de all pas the Athenians Athēnaios and kai the ho foreigners xenos living epidēmeō there used to spend their time eukaireō in eis nothing oudeis else heteros than ē to tell legō or ē to hear akouō something tis new kainos.)

22 So de Paul Paulos, standing histēmi · ho in en the midst mesos of the ho Areopagus pagos, said phēmi: “ Men anēr of Athens Athēnaios, I perceive theōreō that hōs in kata every pas way you hymeis are a very devout deisidaimōn people . 23 For gar as I went dierchomai around and kai observed anatheōreō · ho your hymeis objects sebasma of worship , I found heuriskō also kai an altar bōmos on en which hos was inscribed epigraphō, ‘ To an unknown agnōstos god theos.’ So oun what hos you worship eusebeō without agnoeō knowing , this houtos I egō proclaim katangellō to you hymeis. 24 The ho God theos who ho made poieō the ho world kosmos and kai everything pas · ho in en it autos, being hyparchō Lord kyrios of heaven ouranos and kai earth , does katoikeō not ou live katoikeō in en shrines naos made cheiropoiētos by human hands , 25 nor oude is he served therapeuō by hypo human anthrōpinos hands cheir, as though he needed prosdeomai anything tis, since he himself autos gives didōmi to all pas life zōē and kai breath pnoē and kai · ho everything pas. 26 And te he made poieō from ek one heis man every pas race ethnos of men anthrōpos to live katoikeō on epi all pas the face prosōpon of the ho earth , having determined horizō allotted prostassō epochs kairos and kai the ho fixed horothesia boundaries of the ho places katoikia where they autos would live , 27 that they should seek zēteō · ho God theos, if ei perhaps ara ge that they might grope psēlaphaō for him autos and kai find heuriskō him, though kai indeed ge he is hyparchō not ou far makran from apo each hekastos one heis of us hēmeis. 28  For gar in en him autos we live zaō and kai move kineō about and kai exist eimi,’ as hōs even kai some tis of ho your own kata poets poiētēs have said legō, ‘ For gar we eimi too kai are eimi his ho offspring genos.’ 29 So oun since we are hyparchō the offspring genos of ho God theos, we ought opheilō not ou to think nomizō that the ho divine being theios is eimi like homoios an image carved charagma in gold chrysos or ē silver argyros or ē stone lithos by human anthrōpos skill technē and kai imagination enthumēsis. 30 So then oun, God theos overlooked hyperoraō the ho times chronos of ho ignorance agnoia, · ho · ho but now nyn he orders parangellō · ho men anthrōpos to repent metanoeō, all pas of them in all pantachou places , 31 because kathoti he has appointed histēmi a day hēmera on en which hos he will mellō judge krinō the ho world oikoumenē in en righteousness dikaiosynē by en the man anēr whom hos he has appointed horizō, having provided parechō proof pistis to all pas by raising anistēmi him autos from ek the dead nekros.”

32 Now de when they heard akouō of the resurrection anastasis of the dead nekros, some ho mocked chleuazō, but de others ho said legō, “ We will hear akouō you sy again palin about peri this houtos.” · kai 33 So houtōs · ho Paul Paulos departed exerchomai from ek their autos midst mesos. 34 But de some tis men anēr joined kollaō him autos and believed pisteuō; among en whom hos also kai were Dionysius Dionysios the ho Areopagite Areopagitēs and kai a woman gynē named onoma Damaris Damaris and kai others heteros with syn them autos.

18 After meta this houtos Paul departed chōrizō from ek · ho Athens and went erchomai to eis Corinth Korinthos. And kai finding heuriskō a certain tis Jew Ioudaios named onoma Aquila Akylas, a native genos of Pontus Pontikos, · ho recently prosphatōs come erchomai from apo · ho Italy Italia with kai his autos wife gynē Priscilla Priskilla because dia · ho Claudius Klaudios had commanded diatassō all pas the ho Jews Ioudaios to depart chōrizō from apo · ho Rome Rhōmē, he approached proserchomai them autos, and kai because dia he was eimi of the same homotechnos trade he stayed menō with para them autos and kai worked ergazomai, for gar they were eimi tentmakers skēnopoios by ho trade technē. And de he reasoned dialegomai in en the ho synagogue synagōgē every kata pas Sabbath sabbaton and te tried peithō to persuade Jews Ioudaios and kai Greeks Hellēn.

When hōs · de Silas Silas and kai Timothy Timotheos came katerchomai down from apo · ho Macedonia Makedonia, · ho · ho Paul Paulos was wholly absorbed synechō with preaching the ho word logos, · ho testifying diamartyromai to the ho Jews Ioudaios that Jesus Iēsous was eimi the ho Messiah Christos. But de when they autos opposed antitassō and kai reviled blasphēmeō him, he shook ektinassō out his ho garments himation and said legō to pros them autos, · ho Your hymeis blood haima be on epi · ho your own hymeis head kephalē! I egō am guiltless katharos. From apo · ho now nyn on I will go poreuō to eis the ho Gentiles ethnos.” And kai he left metabainō there ekeithen and went eiserchomai to eis the house oikia of one tis named onoma Titius Titios Justus Ioustos, a worshiper sebō of · ho God theos, whose hos · ho house oikia was eimi next synomoreō door to the ho synagogue synagōgē. Crispus Krispos, · de the ho ruler archisynagōgos of the synagogue , believed pisteuō in the ho Lord kyrios, together syn with his autos entire holos · ho household oikos; and kai many polys of the ho Corinthians Korinthios upon hearing akouō about it, believed pisteuō and kai were baptized baptizō. And de the ho Lord kyrios said legō to ho Paul Paulos during en the night nyx in dia a vision horama, “ Do not be afraid phobeomai, but alla go on speaking laleō and kai do not be silent siōpaō, 10 because dioti I egō am eimi with meta you sy and kai no oudeis one will lay epitithēmi a hand on you sy to ho do you sy harm kakoō, for dioti I egō have eimi many polys people laos in en · ho this houtos city polis.” 11 So de he stayed kathizō there a year eniautos and kai six hex months mēn, teaching didaskō among en them autos the ho word logos of ho God theos.

12 But de when eimi Gallio Galliōn was eimi proconsul anthypatos of ho Achaia Achaia, the ho Jews Ioudaios rose katephistamai up with one accord homothumadon against · ho Paul Paulos and kai brought agō him autos before epi the ho tribunal bēma, 13 saying legō, “ This man houtos is persuading anapeithō · ho men anthrōpos to worship sebō · ho God theos in a way contrary to para the ho law nomos.” 14 But de when Paul Paulos was about mellō · ho to open anoigō his ho mouth stoma, Gallio Galliōn said legō · ho to pros the ho Jews Ioudaios, “ If ei it were eimi a matter tis of wrongdoing adikēma or ē a serious piece ponēros of villainy rhadiourgēma, O ō Jews Ioudaios, it would an be reasonable kata logos for me to put anechōmai up with you hymeis. 15 But de if ei the questions zētēma are eimi about peri a word logos and kai names onoma and kai your hymeis own ho law nomos, see horaō to it yourselves autos. I egō do boulomai not ou wish boulomai to be eimi a judge kritēs of these matters houtos.” 16 And kai he drove apelaunō them autos from apo the ho tribunal bēma. 17 And de they all pas took epilambanomai hold of Sosthenes Sōsthenēs, the ho ruler archisynagōgos of the synagogue , and began to beat typtō him in front emprosthen of the ho tribunal bēma. But kai none oudeis of these houtos things were of concern melei to ho Gallio Galliōn.

18 · ho · de Paul Paulos, after remaining prosmenō there for a number of hikanos days hēmera, said farewell apotassō to the ho brothers adelphos and sailed ekpleō away to eis · ho Syria Syria, and kai with syn him autos were Priscilla Priskilla and kai Aquila Akylas. At en Cenchreae Kenchreai he had his ho head kephalē shaved keirō, for gar he had taken echō a vow euchē. 19 And de they went katantaō to eis Ephesus Ephesos, and he left kataleipō them kakeinos there autou but de he himself autos went eiserchomai into eis the ho synagogue synagōgē and reasoned dialegomai with the ho Jews Ioudaios. 20 When they autos asked erōtaō · de him to stay menō a longer polys time chronos, he would not ou consent epineuō 21 but alla bade apotassō farewell , · kai saying legō, “ I will come anakamptō back to pros you hymeis again palin, · ho God theos willing thelō.” Then he set anagō sail from apo · ho Ephesus Ephesos, 22 and kai when he touched katerchomai land at eis Caesarea Kaisareia, he went anabainō up and kai greeted aspazomai the ho church ekklēsia and then went katabainō down to eis Antioch Antiocheia. 23 · kai After spending poieō some tis time chronos there, he departed exerchomai and made dierchomai his way from kathexēs place to place through the ho Galatian Galatikos country chōra and kai Phrygia Phrygia, strengthening epistērizō all pas the ho disciples mathētēs.

24 Now de a tis Jew Ioudaios named onoma Apollos Apollōs, an Alexandrian Alexandreus by ho race genos, arrived katantaō in eis Ephesus Ephesos. He was an eloquent logios man anēr, well-versed dynatos eimi in en the ho Scriptures graphē. 25 He houtos had eimi been instructed katēcheō in the ho way hodos of the ho Lord kyrios; and kai being zeō fervent in ho spirit pneuma, he spoke laleō and kai taught didaskō accurately akribōs the ho facts about peri · ho Jesus Iēsous, though he knew epistamai only monon the ho baptism baptisma of John Iōannēs. 26 He houtos began archō to speak parrēsiazomai boldly in en the ho synagogue synagōgē, but de when they heard akouō him autos, Priscilla Priskilla and kai Aquila Akylas took proslambanō him autos and kai explained ektithēmi more accurately akribōs to him autos the ho way hodos of ho God theos. 27 And de when he autos wanted boulomai to continue dierchomai on into eis · ho Achaia Achaia, the ho brothers adelphos encouraged protrepō him and wrote graphō to the ho disciples mathētēs to welcome apodechomai him autos. When he hos arrived paraginomai there, he greatly polys helped symballō those ho who had come to believe pisteuō through dia · ho grace charis, 28 for gar he diakatelenchomai powerfully eutonōs refuted diakatelenchomai the ho Jews Ioudaios in public dēmosios, demonstrating epideiknymi by dia the ho Scriptures graphē that Jesus Iēsous was eimi the ho Messiah Christos.

19 And de it happened ginomai that while en · ho Apollos Apollōs was eimi at en Corinth Korinthos, Paul Paulos went dierchomai through the ho inland anōterikos regions meros and came erchomai to eis Ephesus Ephesos. · kai There he found heuriskō some tis disciples mathētēs and te said legō to pros them autos, “ Did you receive lambanō the Holy hagios Spirit pneuma when you believed pisteuō?” They ho · de said to pros him autos, “ Why alla, we have akouō not oude even heard akouō if ei there is eimi a Holy hagios Spirit pneuma.” So te Paul asked legō, “ Into eis what tis then oun were you baptized baptizō?” And de they ho replied legō, “ Into eis the ho baptism baptisma of John Iōannēs.” Paul Paulos said legō, · de John Iōannēs baptized baptizō with a baptism baptisma of repentance metanoia, telling legō the ho people laos to hina believe pisteuō in eis the ho one coming erchomai after meta him autos, that houtos is eimi, in eis · ho Jesus Iēsous.” Upon hearing akouō this, · de they were baptized baptizō in eis the ho name onoma of the ho Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous. And kai when Paul Paulos laid epitithēmi his ho hands cheir on them autos, · ho the ho Holy hagios Spirit pneuma came erchomai · ho on epi them autos, and te they spoke laleō in tongues glōssa and kai prophesied prophēteuō. And de the ho men anēr were eimi in all pas about hōsei twelve dōdeka.

And de he went eiserchomai into eis the ho synagogue synagōgē and spoke parrēsiazomai boldly for epi three treis months mēn, reasoning dialegomai and kai persuading peithō them concerning peri the ho things of the ho kingdom basileia of ho God theos. But de when hōs some tis became stubborn sklērynō and kai refused apeitheō to believe, speaking kakologeō evil of the ho Way hodos before enōpion the ho congregation plēthos, he withdrew aphistēmi from apo them autos, taking aphorizō the ho disciples mathētēs with him, and continued daily kata hēmera to discourse dialegomai in en the ho lecture scholē hall of Tyrannus Tyrannos. 10 This houtos · de went ginomai on for epi two dyo years etos, so hōste that all pas the ho residents katoikeō of · ho Asia Asia heard akouō the ho word logos of the ho Lord kyrios, both te Jews Ioudaios and kai Greeks Hellēn.

11 They were no ou ordinary tynchanō miracles dynamis · ho that · ho God theos was doing poieō by dia the ho hands cheir of Paul Paulos, 12 so hōste that · kai handkerchiefs soudarion and ē aprons simikinthion were carried apopherō off from apo · ho his autos body chrōs for epi the ho sick astheneō, and kai diseases nosos were driven apallassō away by apo them autos · ho · ho and te evil ponēros spirits pneuma · ho came ekporeuomai out . 13 But de some tis also kai of the ho itinerant perierchomai Jews Ioudaios, exorcists exorkistēs, tried epicheireō to invoke onomazō the ho name onoma of the ho Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous over epi those ho having echō · ho evil ponēros spirits pneuma, · ho saying legō, “ I adjure horkizō you hymeis by that ho Jesus Iēsous whom hos Paul Paulos proclaims kēryssō.” 14 There were eimi · de seven hepta sons hyios of a tis man named Sceva Skeuas, a Jewish Ioudaios high archiereus priest , who were doing poieō this houtos. 15 But de the ho evil ponēros spirit pneuma answering apokrinomai · ho said legō to them autos, · ho Jesus Iēsous I know ginōskō, and kai · ho Paul Paulos I recognize epistamai, but de who tis are eimi you hymeis?” 16 And kai the ho man anthrōpos in en whom hos was eimi the ho evil ponēros spirit pneuma · ho leaped ephallomai on epi them autos, took katakyrieuō control and overpowered ischuō all amphoteroi seven of kata them autos, so hōste that they fled ekpheugō, naked gymnos and kai wounded traumatizō, out ek of · ho that ekeinos house oikos. 17 And de this houtos became ginomai known gnōstos to all pas the Jews Ioudaios and kai Greeks Hellēn who ho lived katoikeō in · ho Ephesus Ephesos. And kai fear phobos fell epipiptō upon epi them autos all pas, and kai the ho name onoma of the ho Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous was exalted megalynō. 18 Also te many polys of ho those who had become believers pisteuō kept coming erchomai, confessing exomologeomai and kai divulging anangellō · ho their autos practices praxis. 19 And de a number hikanos of ho those who had practiced prassō · ho magic periergos arts collected sympherō their ho books biblos and burned katakaiō them up in enōpion the sight of all pas. And kai they calculated sympsēphizō the ho value timē of them autos and kai found heuriskō it to be fifty thousand myrias pieces of silver argyrion. 20 So houtōs the ho word logos of the ho Lord kyrios continued to spread auxanō and kai grow ischuō in kata power kratos.

21 Now de after hōs all these things houtos had taken plēroō place , Paul Paulos resolved tithēmi · ho in en · ho spirit pneuma to pass dierchomai through · ho Macedonia Makedonia and kai Achaia Achaia and go poreuō on to eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma, saying legō, “ After meta · ho I egō have been ginomai there ekei, I egō must dei also kai see Rome Rhōmē.” 22 So de after sending apostellō to eis · ho Macedonia Makedonia two dyo of those ho who were helping diakoneō him autos, Timothy Timotheos and kai Erastus Erastos, he himself autos stayed epechō for a time chronos in eis · ho Asia Asia.

23 About kata that ekeinos time kairos there broke out ginomai · de · ho no ou little oligos disturbance tarachos concerning peri the ho Way hodos. 24 For gar a man tis named onoma Demetrius Dēmētrios, a silversmith argyrokopos, who made poieō silver argyrous shrines naos of Artemis Artemis, brought parechō no ou little oligos business ergasia to the ho craftsmen technitēs. 25 He called them hos together synathroizō with kai · ho workmen ergatēs in peri · ho similar toioutos trades, and said legō, “ Men anēr, you know epistamai that hoti from ek this houtos · ho trade ergasia · ho prosperity euporia comes eimi to us hēmeis. 26 And kai you see theōreō and kai hear akouō that hoti not ou only monon in Ephesus Ephesos but alla in almost schedon all pas of ho Asia Asia · ho this houtos Paul Paulos has persuaded peithō and turned methistēmi away a considerable hikanos number ochlos of people , saying legō that hoti gods ho made ginomai by dia hand cheir are eimi not ou gods theos at all. 27 There is danger kindyneuō not ou only monon · de that this houtos trade meros of ours hēmeis · ho will fall erchomai into eis disrepute apelegmos, but alla also kai that the ho temple hieron of the ho great megas goddess thea Artemis Artemis is in danger of being regarded logizomai as eis worthless outheis and te her autos magnificence megaleiotēs in danger of mellō · kai being destroyed kathaireō, · ho she whom hos all holos · ho Asia Asia and kai the ho world oikoumenē worship sebō.”

28 When they heard akouō · de · kai this, they were ginomai filled plērēs with anger thumos and began to cry krazō out , saying legō, “ Great megas is · ho Artemis Artemis of the Ephesians Ephesios!” 29 So kai the ho city polis was filled pimplēmi with the ho confusion synchusis, and te they rushed hormaō with a single homothumadon purpose into eis the ho theater theatron, dragging synarpazō with them Gaius Gaios and kai Aristarchus Aristarchos, Macedonians Makedōn, traveling-companions synekdēmos of Paul Paulos. 30 But de when Paul Paulos wanted boulomai to go eiserchomai in among eis the ho people dēmos, the ho disciples mathētēs would not ou let eaō him autos. 31 And de also kai some tis of the ho Asiarchs Asiarchēs, being eimi friendly philos to him autos, sent pempō to pros him autos and urged parakaleō him not to commit didōmi himself heautou to eis the ho theater theatron. 32 So then oun some allos were shouting krazō one allos thing tis, some another, for gar the ho assembly ekklēsia was eimi in confusion syncheō, and kai · ho most polys of them did not ou know oida why tis they had assembled synerchomai. 33 And de some ek of the ho crowd ochlos prompted symbibazō Alexander Alexandros, the ho Jews Ioudaios pushing proballō him autos forward. · ho And de Alexander Alexandros motioned kataseiō with his ho hand cheir and wanted thelō to make apologeomai a defense to the ho crowd dēmos. 34 But de when they recognized epiginōskō that hoti he was eimi a Jew Ioudaios, a single heis cry phōnē went ginomai up from ek them pas all as hōs they cried out krazō for about epi two dyo hours hōra, “ Great megas is · ho Artemis Artemis of the Ephesians Ephesios!” 35 And de when the ho city clerk grammateus had quieted katastellō the ho crowd ochlos, he said phēmi, “ Men anēr of Ephesus Ephesios, what tis man anthrōpos is eimi there who hos does not ou know ginōskō that the ho city polis of the Ephesians Ephesios is eimi the temple neōkoros keeper of the ho great megas Artemis Artemis and kai of ho her image that fell from heaven diopetēs? 36 So oun, since these things houtos are eimi indisputable anantirrētos, you hymeis must dei eimi be hyparchō quiet katastellō and kai do prassō nothing mēdeis rash propetēs. 37 For gar you have brought agō · ho these houtos men anēr, who are neither oute temple hierosylos robbers nor oute blasphemers blasphēmeō against · ho our hēmeis goddess theos. 38 If ei then oun Demetrius Dēmētrios and kai the ho craftsmen technitēs with syn him autos have echō a complaint logos against pros anyone tis, the courts agoraios are open agō, and kai there are eimi proconsuls anthypatos. Let them bring charges enkaleō against one allēlōn another there. 39 But de if ei you want epizēteō anything tis in addition peraiterō, it shall be settled epilyō in en the ho legal ennomos assembly ekklēsia. 40 For gar indeed kai we are in danger kindyneuō of being charged enkaleō in connection peri with this ho day’ s sēmeron riot stasis, there being hyparchō no mēdeis cause aitios for peri it hos; and we will not ou be able dynamai to give apodidōmi an explanation logos for peri · ho this houtos commotion systrophē.” And kai having said legō this houtos, he dismissed apolyō the ho assembly ekklēsia.

20 After meta · de the ho uproar thorybos ceased pauō, Paul Paulos sent metapempō for · ho the ho disciples mathētēs, and kai after encouraging parakaleō them and saying aspazomai farewell , he left exerchomai for eis Macedonia Makedonia. When he had gone dierchomai through · de · ho those ekeinos parts meros and kai encouraged parakaleō them autos with many polys words logos, he came erchomai to eis · ho Greece Hellas. He spent poieō three treis months mēn there, and when a plot epiboulē was hatched ginomai against him autos by hypo the ho Jews Ioudaios as he was about mellō to set anagō sail for eis · ho Syria Syria, he decided ginomai to ho return hypostrephō through dia Macedonia Makedonia. · de Sopater Sōpatros, the son of Pyrrhus Pyrros from Berea Beroiaios, went with synepomai him autos, as de did Aristarchus Aristarchos and kai Secundus Sekoundos from Thessalonians Thessalonikeus, · kai Gaius Gaios a resident of Derbe Derbaios, · kai Timothy Timotheos, and de the Asians Asianos, Tychicus Tychikos and kai Trophimus Trophimos. These houtos men · de had gone proerchomai on ahead and were waiting menō for us hēmeis in en Troas Trōias. We hēmeis · de sailed ekpleō away after meta the ho days hēmera of ho Unleavened azymos Bread from apo Philippi Philippoi and kai joined erchomai pros the others autos in eis · ho Troas Trōias five pente days hēmera later achri, where hopou we stayed diatribō for seven hepta days hēmera.

On en · de the ho first heis day of the ho week sabbaton, when we hēmeis had gathered synagō to break klaō bread artos, · ho Paul Paulos addressed dialegomai them autos, and since he intended mellō to leave the ho next epaurion day , he continued parateinō his ho message logos until mechri midnight mesonyktion. There were eimi · de a number of hikanos lamps lampas in en the ho upper hyperōon room where hou we had eimi gathered synagō. And de a tis young neanias man , named onoma Eutychus eutychos, sitting kathezomai on epi the ho window thuris ledge , was sinking katapherō into a deep bathus sleep hypnos as Paul Paulos continued to speak dialegomai · ho on and on epi. Overcome katapherō by apo · ho sleep hypnos, he fell piptō from apo the ho third tristegon floor and kai was picked airō up for dead nekros. 10 But de Paul Paulos went down katabainō · ho and threw epipiptō himself on him autos, and kai putting symperilambanō his arms around him, said legō, “ Do not be alarmed thorybeō, · ho for gar his autos life psychē is eimi in en him autos.” 11 Then de Paul went anabainō back upstairs , and kai after he had broken klaō · ho bread artos and kai eaten geuomai, he spoke with homileō them a considerable time epi, until achri dawn augē, and so houtōs he departed exerchomai. 12 And de they took agō the ho boy pais home alive zaō and kai were encouraged parakaleō not ou a little metriōs.

13 We hēmeis, then de, went proerchomai on to epi the ho ship ploion and set anagō sail for epi · ho Assos Assos, where ekeithen we planned mellō to take analambanō · ho Paul Paulos on board ; for gar he had eimi made this houtōs arrangement diatassō, intending mellō himself autos to travel pezeuō by land . 14 When hōs · de he met symballō us hēmeis at eis · ho Assos Assos, we took analambanō him autos on board and continued erchomai on to eis Mitylene Mitylēnē. 15 And from there kakeithen we sailed apopleō away on the ho following epeimi day and arrived katantaō off antikrys the shore of Chios, the ho · de next heteros day we touched paraballō at eis Samos Samos, and de the ho day after echō that we went erchomai to eis Miletus Milētos. 16 For gar Paul Paulos had decided krinō · ho to sail parapleō past · ho Ephesus Ephesos, so hopōs that he autos might not have ginomai to spend chronotribeō time in en · ho Asia Asia, for gar he was hastening speudō, if ei it were eimi possible dynatos for him autos, to be ginomai in eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma for the ho day hēmera of ho Pentecost pentēkostē.

17 From apo · de · ho Miletus Milētos he sent pempō to eis Ephesus Ephesos, asking metakaleō the ho elders presbyteros of the ho church ekklēsia to come to him. 18 And de when hōs they came paraginomai to pros him autos, he said legō to them autos: “You yourselves hymeis know epistamai how pōs I lived ginomai among meta you hymeis the ho whole pas time chronos from apo the first prōtos day hēmera on apo which hos I set epibainō foot in eis · ho Asia Asia, 19 serving douleuō the ho Lord kyrios with meta all pas humility tapeinophrosynē and kai with tears dakryon, · kai enduring the trials peirasmos that ho fell symbainō on me egō by en the ho plots epiboulē of the ho Jews Ioudaios; 20 how hōs I did not hold hypostellō back · ho from proclaiming anangellō to you hymeis anything oudeis that ho would be helpful sympherō, and kai from teaching didaskō you hymeis publicly dēmosios · kai from house to house kata, 21 testifying diamartyromai both te to Jews Ioudaios and kai to Greeks Hellēn about · ho repentance metanoia toward eis God theos and kai about faith pistis in eis · ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous. 22 And kai now nyn, compelled deō by the ho Spirit pneuma, I egō am going poreuō to eis Jerusalem Ierousalēm, not knowing oida what ho will happen synantaō to me egō there en autos, 23 except plēn that hoti the ho Holy hagios Spirit pneuma · ho testifies diamartyromai to me egō, saying legō that hoti in every kata city polis imprisonment desmos and kai persecutions thlipsis are waiting for menō me egō. 24 But alla I make poieō my ho life psychē of no oudeis account logos as of any value timios to me emautou, that hōs I may finish teleioō · ho my egō task dromos and kai the ho ministry diakonia that hos I received lambanō from para the ho Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous, to testify diamartyromai to the ho good euangelion news of the ho grace charis of ho God theos.

25  And kai now nyn I egō know oida that hoti none ouketi of you will see horaō · ho my egō face prosōpon again, you hymeis among en whom hos I went dierchomai about proclaiming kēryssō the ho kingdom basileia. 26 Therefore dioti I testify martyromai to you hymeis this en · ho day sēmeron hēmera that hoti I am eimi innocent katharos of apo the ho blood haima of you all pas, 27 for gar I did not ou shrink hypostellō from announcing anangellō to you hymeis the ho whole pas purpose boulē of ho God theos. 28 Watch prosechō out for yourselves heautou and kai for all pas the ho flock poimnion in en which hos the ho Holy hagios Spirit pneuma · ho has placed tithēmi you hymeis overseers episkopos, to shepherd poimainō the ho church ekklēsia of ho God theos, which hos he purchased peripoieō with dia the ho blood haima of ho his own idios Son. 29 I egō know oida that hoti there will come eiserchomai to eis you hymeis after meta · ho my egō departure aphixis savage barys wolves lykos, not sparing pheidomai the ho flock poimnion. 30 Even kai from ek among your hymeis own group autos will men anēr arise anistēmi, speaking laleō distortions diastrephō of the truth, to ho draw apospaō the ho disciples mathētēs away after opisō them autos. 31 Therefore dio be alert grēgoreō, remembering mnēmoneuō that hoti for three trietia years , night nyx or kai day hēmera, I did not ou cease pauō warning noutheteō each hekastos one heis of you with meta tears dakryon. 32 And kai · ho now nyn I commend paratithēmi you hymeis to ho God theos and kai to the ho word logos of ho his autos grace charis, which ho is able dynamai to build oikodomeō you up and kai to give didōmi you an ho inheritance klēronomia among en all pas those ho who are sanctified hagiazō. 33 I have epithumeō not oudeis coveted epithumeō anyone’ s oudeis silver argyrion or ē gold chrysion or ē clothing himatismos. 34 You yourselves autos know ginōskō that hoti these houtos hands cheir of mine provided for hypēreteō · ho my own egō needs chreia as kai well as the needs of those ho with meta me egō. · ho 35 In all pas this I have hypodeiknymi shown you hymeis that hoti by working kopiaō in this way houtōs you must dei help antilambanō the ho weak astheneō, remembering mnēmoneuō the ho words logos of the ho Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous, how hoti he himself autos said legō, ‘ It is eimi more mallon blessed makarios to give didōmi than ē to receive lambanō.’”

36 And kai when he had said legō these houtos things , he knelt down tithēmi · ho with syn them autos all pas and prayed proseuchomai. 37 And de there was ginomai much hikanos weeping klauthmos on the part of all pas, and kai they fell epipiptō on epi the ho neck trachēlos of ho Paul Paulos and kissed kataphileō him autos lovingly , 38 being saddened odynaō most malista of all because epi of the ho word logos he had spoken legō, that hoti no ouketi longer were they going mellō to see theōreō · ho his autos face prosōpon. And de they escorted propempō him autos to eis the ho ship ploion.

21 And de when hōs we had parted apospaō from apo them autos, we hēmeis put anagō out to sea and sailed on a straight course euthudromeō to eis · ho Cos, then de on the ho next hexēs day to eis · ho Rhodes Rhodos, and from there kakeithen to eis Patara Patara. And kai finding heuriskō a ship ploion bound diaperaō for eis Phoenicia Phoinikē, we went epibainō aboard and set anagō sail . We came in sight anaphainō of · de · ho Cyprus Kypros, and kai leaving kataleipō it autos behind on our port euōnymos side , we sailed pleō on to eis Syria Syria and kai landed katerchomai at eis Tyre Tyros, for gar there ekeise the ho ship ploion was eimi to unload apophortizomai its ho cargo gomos.

And de having completed dianyō the ho voyage from apo Tyre Tyros, we hēmeis came katantaō to eis Ptolemais Ptolemais, and kai we greeted aspazomai the ho brothers adelphos and stayed menō one heis day hēmera with para them autos.

( He houtos · de had eimi four tessares unmarried parthenos daughters thugatēr who prophesied prophēteuō.) 10 While we were staying epimenō · de for many polys days hēmera, a tis prophet prophētēs named onoma Agabus Hagabos came katerchomai down from apo · ho Judea Ioudaia. 11 · kai He came erchomai to pros us hēmeis and kai, taking airō · ho Paul’ s Paulos belt zōnē, · ho he tied deō his heautou own · ho hands cheir and kai feet pous · ho with it and said legō, “ The ho Holy hagios Spirit pneuma says legō this hode: · ho This is how houtōs the ho Jews Ioudaios will tie up deō in en Jerusalem Ierousalēm the ho man anēr whose hos belt zōnē this houtos is eimi, · ho and kai will deliver paradidōmi him into eis the hands cheir of the Gentiles ethnos.’” 12 When hōs · de we heard akouō this houtos, both te we hēmeis and kai the ho local entopios people urged parakaleō him autos not to go anabainō up to eis Jerusalem Ierousalēm. 13 Then tote Paul Paulos answered apokrinomai, · ho What tis are you doing poieō, weeping klaiō and kai breaking synthryptō my egō · ho heart kardia?

15 After meta · de · ho these houtos days hēmera we got episkeuazomai ready and started anabainō up to eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma. 16 And de · kai some of the ho disciples mathētēs from apo Caesarea Kaisareia came synerchomai with syn us hēmeis, bringing agō Mnason Mnasōn of Cyprus Kyprios, an tis early archaios disciple mathētēs, with para whom hos we should lodge xenizō. 17 When we hēmeis arrived ginomai · de in eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma, the ho brothers adelphos welcomed apodechomai us hēmeis gladly asmenōs.

18 On the ho · de following epeimi day Paul Paulos went eiseimi · ho with syn us hēmeis to pros James Iakōbos, and te all pas the ho elders presbyteros were present paraginomai. 19 · kai After he greeted aspazomai them autos, he began to relate exēgeomai one hekastos by kata one heis what hos God theos had done poieō · ho among en the ho Gentiles ethnos through dia · ho his autos ministry diakonia. 20 And de when they ho heard akouō it, they began to praise doxazō · ho God theos. And te they said legō to him autos, “ You see theōreō, brother adelphos, how posos many thousands myrias of ho believers pisteuō there are eimi among en the ho Jews Ioudaios, and kai they are hyparchō all pas zealous zēlōtēs for the ho law nomos. 21 But de they were told katēcheō about peri you sy that hoti you are teaching didaskō all pas the ho Jews Ioudaios who are among kata the ho Gentiles ethnos to forsake apostasia Moses Mōysēs, telling legō them autos not to circumcise peritemnō their ho children teknon and mēde not to walk according to peripateō our ho customs ethos. 22 What tis then oun is eimi to be done? They will certainly pantōs hear akouō that hoti you have come erchomai. 23 Therefore oun, do poieō what hos we tell legō you sy. There are eimi with us hēmeis four tessares men anēr who have taken echō upon epi themselves heautou a vow euchē. 24 Take paralambanō these houtos men and purify hagnizō yourself along syn with them autos and kai pay their autos expenses dapanaō that hina they may shave xyraō their ho heads kephalē, and kai everyone pas will know ginōskō that hoti there is eimi nothing oudeis in what hos they have been told katēcheō about peri you sy, but alla that you yourself autos walk stoicheō · kai keeping phylassō the ho law nomos. 25 But de as peri for the ho Gentiles ethnos who have believed pisteuō, we hēmeis sent epistellō a letter with our judgment krinō that they autos should abstain phylassō from what ho has been sacrificed eidōlothutos to idols , and kai from blood haima, and kai from what has been strangled pniktos, and kai from sexual porneia immorality .” 26 Then tote · ho Paul Paulos took paralambanō the ho men anēr and on the ho next echō day hēmera he purified himself hagnizō with syn them autos and went eiseimi into eis the ho temple hieron, giving notice diangellō of the ho completion ekplērōsis of the ho days hēmera of the ho purification hagnismos, at heōs which hos time the ho sacrifice prosphora would be offered prospherō on hyper behalf of each hekastos one heis of them autos.

27 When hōs · de the ho seven hepta days hēmera were about mellō to be completed synteleō, the ho Jews Ioudaios from apo · ho Asia Asia, upon seeing theaomai him autos in en the ho temple hieron, stirred syncheō up the ho whole pas crowd ochlos and kai laid epiballō hands cheir on epi him autos, · ho 28 crying krazō out , “ Men anēr of Israel Israēlitēs, help boētheō! This houtos is eimi the ho man anthrōpos who ho is teaching didaskō everyone pas everywhere pantachē against kata our ho people laos, · kai our ho law nomos, and kai · ho this houtos place topos. And te besides eti, he eisagō even kai brought eisagō Greeks Hellēn into eis the ho temple hieron and kai has made this houtos holy hagios place topos unclean koinoō.” · ho 29 For gar they had eimi previously seen prooraō Trophimus Trophimos the ho Ephesian Ephesios in en the ho city polis with syn him autos, and they assumed nomizō that hoti Paul Paulos had taken eisagō him hos into eis the ho temple hieron. · ho 30 Then te all holos the ho city polis was stirred up kineō, and kai a mob syndromē of ho people laos quickly formed ginomai. · kai They seized epilambanomai · ho Paul Paulos and dragged him autos outside exō the ho temple hieron, and kai immediately eutheōs the ho gates thura were shut kleiō. 31 And te while they were trying zēteō to kill apokteinō him autos, a report phasis was sent up anabainō to the ho commanding chiliarchos officer of the ho detachment speira that hoti all holos Jerusalem Ierousalēm was in an uproar syncheō. 32 At once exautēs he hos took paralambanō along some soldiers stratiōtēs and kai centurions hekatontarchēs and ran katatrechō down to epi them autos; and de when they ho saw the ho commanding chiliarchos officer and kai the ho soldiers stratiōtēs, they stopped pauō beating typtō · ho Paul Paulos. 33 Then tote the ho commanding chiliarchos officer came up engizō and arrested epilambanomai him autos and kai ordered keleuō him to be tied deō up with two dyo chains halysis. Then kai he asked pynthanomai who tis he might be eimi and kai what tis he had eimi done poieō. 34 Some allos · de in en the ho crowd ochlos were shouting epiphōneō one allos thing tis, some another, and de since he autos was unable to find ginōskō out the ho truth asphalēs because dia of the ho uproar thorybos, he ordered keleuō him autos to be brought agō into eis the ho barracks parembolē. 35 When hote · de he got ginomai to epi the ho stairs anabathmos, Paul autos had to be symbainō carried bastazō by hypo the ho soldiers stratiōtēs because dia of the ho violence bia of the ho mob ochlos, 36 for gar the ho crowd plēthos of ho people laos kept following akoloutheō and shouting krazō, “ Away airō with him autos!”

37 As he was about mellō to be brought eisagō into eis the ho barracks parembolē, · ho Paul Paulos said legō to the ho commanding chiliarchos officer , “Is it allowed for me egō to say legō something tis to pros you sy?” He ho · de replied phēmi, “ Do you know ginōskō Greek Hellēnisti? 38 Then ara you sy are eimi not ou the ho Egyptian Aigyptios who ho prior pro to these houtos · ho days hēmera stirred anastatoō up a revolt and kai led exagō into eis the ho desert erēmos the ho four tetrakischilioi thousand men anēr of the ho Assassins sikarios?” 39 But de Paul Paulos replied legō, · ho I egō am eimi a Jew Ioudaios, from Tarsus Tarseus in ho Cilicia Kilikia, a citizen politēs of no ou obscure asēmos city polis.

And de when there was ginomai a great polys hush sigē, he addressed prosphōneō them in the ho Hebrew Hebrais language dialektos, saying legō:

22  My brothers anēr and kai fathers patēr, listen akouō now nyni to me egō · ho as I make my defense apologia to pros you hymeis.” And de when they heard akouō that hoti he was addressing prosphōneō them autos in the ho Hebrew Hebrais language dialektos, they became parechō even more mallon quiet hēsychia. And kai he said phēmi: I egō am eimi a Jewish Ioudaios man anēr, born gennaō in en Tarsus Tarsos of ho Cilicia Kilikia, but de brought anatrephō up in en · ho this houtos city polis at para the ho feet pous of Gamaliel Gamaliēl, educated paideuō according kata to the strictness akribeia of the ho ancestral patrōos law nomos, being hyparchō zealous zēlōtēs for ho God theos just kathōs as you hymeis all pas are eimi today sēmeron. I persecuted diōkō the followers of this houtos · ho Way hodos even to achri their death thanatos, putting desmeuō in chains both te men anēr and kai women gynē and kai delivering paradidōmi them to eis prison phylakē, as hōs also kai the ho high archiereus priest and kai the whole pas · ho council of elders presbyterion can bear martyreō me egō witness martyreō. From para them hos · kai I received dechomai letters epistolē to pros the ho brothers adelphos, and I went poreuō toward eis Damascus Damaskos to take agō those ho also kai who were eimi there ekeise and bring deō them in bonds to eis Jerusalem Ierousalēm to hina be punished timōreō. · de As I egō journeyed poreuō and kai came engizō near to ho Damascus Damaskos, about peri noon mesēmbria suddenly exaiphnēs out ek of · ho heaven ouranos flashed periastraptō a brilliant hikanos light phōs all around peri me egō. I fell piptō to eis the ho ground edaphos and kai heard akouō a voice phōnē saying legō to me egō, ‘ Saul Saoul, Saul Saoul, why tis are you persecuting diōkō me egō?’ And de I egō answered apokrinomai, ‘ Who tis are eimi you , Lord kyrios?’ And te he said legō to pros me egō, ‘ I egō am eimi Jesus Iēsous of ho Nazareth Nazōraios, whom hos you sy are persecuting diōkō.’ Now de those ho who were eimi with syn me egō saw theaomai the ho light phōs but de did akouō not ou understand akouō the ho voice phōnē of the ho one who was speaking laleō to me egō. 10 And de I said legō, ‘ What tis shall I do poieō, Lord kyrios?’ And de the ho Lord kyrios said legō to pros me egō, ‘ Get anistēmi up and go poreuō on into eis Damascus Damaskos, and there kakei it will be told laleō you sy about peri all pas that hos has been assigned tassō to you sy to do poieō.’ 11 Since hōs · de I could not ou see emblepō due apo to the ho brilliance doxa of ho that ekeinos light phōs, being led cheiragōgeō by the hand by hypo those ho who were with syneimi me egō, I went erchomai to eis Damascus Damaskos.

12  Then de a certain tis Ananias Hananias, a devout eulabēs man anēr according kata to the ho law nomos, well martyreō spoken of by hypo all pas the ho Jews Ioudaios who lived katoikeō there, 13 came erchomai to pros me egō, and kai standing ephistēmi there said legō to me egō, ‘ Brother adelphos Saul Saoul, recover anablepō your sight .’ And kagō at that ho very autos hour hōra I recovered my sight and saw anablepō eis him autos. 14 And de he ho said legō, ‘ The ho God theos of ho our hēmeis fathers patēr has chosen procheirizō you sy to know ginōskō · ho his autos will thelēma, · kai to see the ho Righteous dikaios One and kai to hear akouō a voice phōnē from ek · ho his autos mouth stoma. 15 For hoti you will be eimi a witness martys for him autos to pros everyone pas anthrōpos of what hos you have seen horaō and kai heard akouō. 16 And kai now nyn why tis are you waiting mellō? Rise anistēmi and be baptized baptizō and kai wash apolouō away · ho your sy sins hamartia, calling epikaleō on · ho his autos name onoma.’ 17 · de When I egō had returned hypostrephō to eis Jerusalem Ierousalēm and kai I egō was praying proseuchomai in en the ho temple hieron, I egō fell ginomai into en a trance ekstasis 18 and kai I saw him autos saying legō to me egō, ‘ Make speudō haste and kai get exerchomai out of ek Jerusalem Ierousalēm quickly en tachos, because dioti they will not ou accept paradechomai your sy testimony martyria about peri me egō.’ 19 And kagō I said legō, ‘ Lord kyrios, they themselves autos know epistamai that hoti I egō used eimi to go from one synagogue to another kata imprisoning phylakizō and kai flogging derō · ho those ho who believed pisteuō in epi you sy. 20 And kai when hote the ho blood haima of Stephen Stephanos, · ho your sy witness martys, was being shed ekchunnomai, · kai I myself autos was eimi standing ephistēmi by · kai approving syneudokeō and kai guarding phylassō the ho cloaks himation of those ho who were killing anaireō him autos.’ 21 And kai he said legō to pros me egō, ‘ Go poreuō, for hoti I egō will send exapostellō you sy far away makran to eis the Gentiles ethnos.’”

22 They listened akouō to · de him autos until achri this houtos · ho word logos, but kai then they raised epairō · ho their autos voices phōnē saying legō, “ Away airō with such a fellow toioutos from apo the ho earth , · ho for gar it is not ou right kathēkō for him autos to live zaō!” 23 While they autos were crying kraugazō out and kai throwing rhipteō off their ho cloaks himation and kai flinging ballō dust koniortos in eis the ho air aēr, 24 the ho commanding officer chiliarchos ordered keleuō Paul autos to be brought eisagō back into eis the ho barracks parembolē, saying legō that he autos should be examined anetazō with whips mastix so hina that he might know epiginōskō the hos reason aitia why dia they were shouting epiphōneō at him autos that way houtōs. 25 But de when hōs they had stretched proteinō him autos out for the ho lash himas, Paul Paulos said legō to pros the ho centurion hekatontarchēs standing histēmi by , · ho “Is it lawful for you hymeis to flog mastizō a man anthrōpos who is a Roman Rhōmaios citizen and kai uncondemned akatakritos?” 26 When the ho centurion hekatontarchēs heard akouō · de this, he went proserchomai and reported apangellō to the ho commanding chiliarchos officer , saying legō, “ What tis are you about mellō to do poieō? · ho For gar this houtos man anthrōpos is eimi a Roman Rhōmaios citizen .” 27 The ho commanding officer chiliarchos came proserchomai to · de him autos and said legō, “ Tell legō me egō, are eimi you sy a Roman Rhōmaios citizen ?” He ho · de replied phēmi, “ Yes nai.” 28 The ho commanding officer chiliarchos answered apokrinomai, · de I egō obtained ktaomai this houtos citizenship politeia with a large polys sum kephalaion of money .” · ho · ho · de Paul Paulos answered phēmi, “ But de I egō was even kai born gennaō one.” 29 Immediately eutheōs those ho who were about mellō to examine anetazō him autos drew back aphistēmi from apo him autos; and kai the ho commanding chiliarchos officer · de was afraid phobeomai, realizing epiginōskō that hoti Paul was eimi a Roman Rhōmaios citizen and kai that hoti he had eimi bound deō him autos.

30 But de on the ho next epaurion day , wanting boulomai to know ginōskō · ho for sure asphalēs · ho what tis was the accusation katēgoreō being made against him by hypo the ho Jews Ioudaios, he released lyō him autos and kai ordered keleuō the ho chief archiereus priests and kai all pas the ho council synedrion to meet synerchomai, and kai he brought katagō · ho Paul Paulos down and set histēmi him before eis them autos.

23 Looking atenizō intently at · de the ho council synedrion, · ho Paul Paulos said legō, “ My brothers anēr, I egō have lived politeuomai in all pas good agathos conscience syneidēsis before ho God theos up achri to this houtos · ho day hēmera.” At that the ho · de high archiereus priest Ananias Hananias ordered epitassō those ho standing paristēmi near him autos to strike typtō him autos on the ho mouth stoma. Then tote · ho Paul Paulos said legō to pros him autos, “ God theos is about mellō to strike typtō you sy, · ho you whitewashed koniaō wall toichos! Do you sy indeed kai sit kathēmai judging krinō me egō according kata to the ho law nomos yet kai contrary paranomeō to the law order keleuō me egō to be struck typtō?” Those ho · de standing paristēmi near him said legō, “Dare you insult loidoreō God’ s theos · ho high archiereus priest ?” · ho And te Paul Paulos said phēmi, · ho I did not ou realize oida, brothers adelphos, that hoti he was eimi high archiereus priest ; for gar it is written graphō, ‘ You shall legō not ou speak legō evil kakōs about legō the ruler archōn of ho your sy people laos.’”

Now de when Paul Paulos perceived ginōskō · ho that hoti · ho one heis part meros were eimi Sadducees Saddoukaios and de the ho other heteros Pharisees Pharisaios, he cried krazō out in en the ho council synedrion, “ My brothers anēr, I egō am eimi a Pharisee Pharisaios, a son hyios of Pharisees Pharisaios. It is regarding peri my hope elpis · kai of a resurrection anastasis for the dead nekros that I egō am on trial krinō.” When legō he autos said legō this houtos, · de an argument stasis broke ginomai out between the ho Pharisees Pharisaios and kai the Sadducees Saddoukaios, and kai the ho assembly plēthos was divided schizō. ( For gar the Sadducees Saddoukaios say legō that there is eimi no resurrection anastasis, nor mēte angel angelos nor mēte spirit pneuma, but de the Pharisees Pharisaios confess homologeō · ho them all amphoteroi.) Then de there arose ginomai a great megas uproar kraugē, and kai certain tis of the ho scribes grammateus of the ho party meros of the ho Pharisees Pharisaios stood up anistēmi and protested diamachomai vigorously , saying legō, “ We find heuriskō nothing oudeis evil kakos in en · ho this houtos man anthrōpos. What if ei · de a spirit pneuma or ē an angel angelos has spoken laleō to him autos?” 10 And de when ginomai the argument stasis became ginomai violent polys, the ho commanding officer chiliarchos, afraid phobeomai that Paul Paulos would be torn diaspaō apart · ho by hypo them autos, commanded keleuō the ho soldiers strateuma to go down katabainō and take harpazō him autos away from ek among mesos them autos by force and te bring agō him into eis the ho barracks parembolē.

11 The ho · de following epeimi night nyx the ho Lord kyrios stood ephistēmi by him autos and said legō, “ Take tharseō courage , for gar as hōs you have testified diamartyromai to the ho facts about peri me egō in eis Jerusalem Ierousalēm, so houtōs must dei you sy also kai testify martyreō in eis Rome Rhōmē.”

12 When it was ginomai · de day hēmera, the ho Jews Ioudaios made poieō a plot systrophē and bound anathematizō themselves heautou by an oath saying legō that they would neither mēte eat esthiō nor mēte drink pinō until heōs hos they had killed apokteinō · ho Paul Paulos. 13 There were eimi · de more polys than forty tesserakonta who ho made poieō this houtos · ho conspiracy synōmosia. 14 These hostis went proserchomai to the ho chief archiereus priests and kai · ho elders presbyteros and said legō, “ We have bound anathematizō ourselves heautou by anathema an oath anathema to taste geuomai no mēdeis food until heōs hos we have killed apokteinō · ho Paul Paulos. 15 So oun now nyn you hymeis and syn the ho council synedrion give notice emphanizō to the ho commanding chiliarchos officer to hopōs bring katagō him autos down to eis you hymeis, as hōs though you were mellō going to examine diaginōskō his autos case ho more accurately akribōs; and de we hēmeis will be eimi ready hetoimos to kill anaireō him autos before pro · ho he autos gets engizō there .” · ho 16 But de when akouō the ho son hyios of ho Paul’ s Paulos sister adelphē heard about akouō the ho ambush enedra, he went paraginomai and kai entered eiserchomai eis the ho barracks parembolē and reported apangellō it to ho Paul Paulos. 17 Then de Paul Paulos called proskaleō · ho one heis of the ho centurions hekatontarchēs and said phēmi, “ Take apagō · ho this houtos young neanias man to pros the ho commanding chiliarchos officer , for gar he has echō something tis to report apangellō to him autos.” 18 So oun he ho took paralambanō him autos and brought agō him to pros the ho commanding chiliarchos officer and kai said phēmi, “ The ho prisoner desmios Paul Paulos called proskaleō me egō and asked erōtaō me to bring agō this houtos · ho young neaniskos man to pros you sy, as he has echō something tis to say laleō to you sy.” 19 The ho commanding officer chiliarchos took epilambanomai him autos by · de the ho hand cheir, · kai drew anachōreō him aside kata idios and asked pynthanomai, “ What tis is eimi it that hos you have echō to report apangellō to me egō?” 20 And de he said legō, “ The ho Jews Ioudaios have agreed syntithēmi to ho ask erōtaō you sy to hopōs bring katagō Paul Paulos down katagō tomorrow aurion · ho to eis the ho council synedrion, as hōs though the case tis against peri him autos was going mellō to be examined pynthanomai more closely akribōs.

21 But oun you sy should not be persuaded peithō by them autos, for gar more than polys forty tesserakonta of ek their autos men anēr are lying enedreuō in wait for him autos and have bound anathematizō themselves heautou by an oath neither mēte to eat esthiō nor mēte drink pinō until heōs hos they kill anaireō him autos.

But de, that hina I may enkoptō not detain enkoptō you sy any epi longer polys, I beg parakaleō you sy to hear akouō us hēmeis briefly syntomōs in ho your sos kindness epieikeia. For gar we found heuriskō · ho this houtos man anēr to be a troublemaker loimos, · kai one who stirs kineō up riots stasis among all pas the ho Jews Ioudaios · ho throughout kata the ho world oikoumenē, and te a ringleader prōtostatēs of the ho sect hairesis of the ho Nazarenes Nazōraios.

10 And te Paul Paulos responded apokrinomai, · ho when the ho governor hēgemōn motioned neuō to him autos to speak legō: “ Knowing that epistamai for ek many polys years etos you sy have been eimi a judge kritēs over ho this houtos nation ethnos, gladly euthumōs do I make my own emautou defense apologeomai concerning peri these things ho. 11 As you sy are able dynamai to verify epiginōskō for yourself, it is eimi not ou more polys than twelve dōdeka days hēmera since apo hos I went anabainō up to worship proskyneō in eis Jerusalem Ierousalēm, 12 and kai they did not oute find heuriskō me egō arguing dialegomai with pros anyone tis or ē stirring up epistasis a crowd ochlos, either oute in en the ho temple hieron or oute in en the ho synagogues synagōgē or oute in kata the ho city polis. 13 Neither oude can they dynamai provide paristēmi proof to you sy regarding peri the things of which hos they are now nyni accusing katēgoreō me egō. 14 But de this houtos I confess homologeō to you sy, that hoti according kata to the ho Way hodos, which hos they call legō a sect hairesis, thus houtōs I worship latreuō the ho God theos of our fathers patrōos, believing pisteuō all pas things that ho are according kata to the ho Law nomos and kai · ho written graphō in en the ho Prophets prophētēs, 15 having echō a hope elpis in eis · ho God theos, which hos · kai these men houtos themselves autos accept prosdechomai, that there is mellō to be eimi a resurrection anastasis both te of the just dikaios and kai of the unjust adikos. 16 In en view of this houtos · kai I autos do my best askeō to have echō a clear aproskopos conscience syneidēsis toward pros · ho God theos and kai · ho men anthrōpos at all times dia.

17  Now de, after dia several polys years etos, I came paraginomai to eis my egō people ethnos bringing poieō gifts for the poor eleēmosynē · ho and kai presenting offerings prosphora, 18 which hos I was doing when en they found heuriskō me egō, ritually purified hagnizō in en the ho temple hieron, without ou meta a crowd ochlos and without oude a commotion thorybos. 19 But de there are some tis Jews Ioudaios from apo · ho Asia Asia who hos ought dei to be here pareimi before epi you sy and kai bring katēgoreō charges , if ei they have echō anything tis against pros me egō. 20 Or ē let these men houtos themselves autos tell legō what tis wrongdoing adikēma they found heuriskō when I egō stood histēmi before epi the ho council synedrion, 21 other ē than this houtos one heis utterance phōnē that hos I cried krazō out while standing histēmi among en them autos: ‘It is regarding peri a resurrection anastasis for the dead nekros that I egō am on trial krinō before epi you hymeis this day sēmeron.’” 22 But de · ho Felix Phēlix, knowing oida more exactly akribōs the ho facts concerning peri the ho Way hodos, put anaballō them autos off anaballō, saying legō, “ When hotan Lysias Lysias the ho commanding chiliarchos officer comes katabainō down , I will decide diaginōskō · ho your case kata.”

23 Then he commanded diatassō the ho centurion hekatontarchēs to keep tēreō him autos in custody, but te to let him have echō some freedom anesis and kai not mēdeis to prevent kōlyō any of ho his autos friends idios from taking hypēreteō care of his autos needs . 24 After meta · de some tis days hēmera Felix Phēlix arrived paraginomai · ho with syn his idios wife gynē Drusilla Drousilla, · ho who was eimi Jewish Ioudaios.

25 Three treis days hēmera after meta arriving epibainō in the ho province eparcheia, Festus Phēstos went up anabainō to eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma from apo Caesarea Kaisareia. So te the ho chief archiereus priests and kai the ho Jewish Ioudaios leaders prōtos · ho brought formal charges emphanizō against kata · ho Paul Paulos, · kai begging parakaleō him autos and asking aiteō him to do them a favor charis against kata Paul autos; they urged Festus to transfer metapempō him autos to eis Jerusalem Ierousalēm, for they were forming poieō a plot enedra to kill anaireō him autos along kata the ho way hodos. · ho So oun then Festus Phēstos replied apokrinomai that Paul Paulos was being kept tēreō · ho at eis Caesarea Kaisareia but de that he himself heautou intended mellō to go there ekporeuomai shortly en tachos. · ho So oun,” he said phēmi, “ let your hymeis leaders dynatos go down there with synkatabainō me, and if ei there is eimi in en this ho man anēr anything tis improper atopos, let them bring charges katēgoreō against him autos.”

After he stayed diatribō · de among en them autos not ou more than polys eight oktō or ē ten deka days hēmera, he went katabainō down to eis Caesarea Kaisareia, and the ho next epaurion day he took kathizō his seat on epi the ho judge’ s bēma bench and ordered keleuō · ho Paul Paulos to be brought agō. When he autos arrived paraginomai, · de the ho Jews Ioudaios who had come down katabainō from apo Jerusalem Hierosolyma stood around periistēmi him autos, bringing katapherō many polys and kai serious barys charges aitiōma against katapherō him, which hos they were not ou able ischuō to prove apodeiknymi. · ho Paul Paulos argued in his defense apologeomai, “ Neither oute against eis the ho law nomos of the ho Jews Ioudaios, nor oute against eis the ho temple hieron, nor oute against eis Caesar Kaisar have I committed any tis offense hamartanō.” But de · ho Festus Phēstos, wanting thelō to curry katatithēmi favor charis with katatithēmi the ho Jews Ioudaios, responded apokrinomai to ho Paul Paulos, saying legō, “ Do you want thelō to go up anabainō to eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma and there ekei be tried krinō on peri these houtos charges before epi me egō?” 10 Paul Paulos answered legō, · de · ho I am eimi now standing histēmi before epi · ho Caesar’ s Kaisar judgment bēma seat , where hou I egō ought dei to be tried krinō. Against the Jews Ioudaios I have done nothing oudeis wrong adikeō, as hōs · kai you epiginōskō yourself sy know epiginōskō very well kalōs. 11 If ei then oun I am a wrongdoer adikeō and kai have done prassō anything tis worthy axios of death thanatos, I am not ou trying to escape paraiteomai death apothnēskō; but de if ei there is eimi nothing oudeis to their hos charges katēgoreō against me egō, no oudeis one has a right dynamai to turn charizomai me egō over charizomai to them autos. I appeal to epikaleō Caesar Kaisar.” 12 Then tote · ho Festus Phēstos, after conferring syllaleō with meta the ho council symboulion, replied apokrinomai, “ To Caesar Kaisar you have appealed epikaleō; to epi Caesar Kaisar you will go poreuō.”

13 Now de after some tis days hēmera had passed diaginomai, Agrippa Agrippas the ho king basileus and kai Bernice Bernikē came katantaō down to eis Caesarea Kaisareia and paid their respects aspazomai to · ho Festus Phēstos. 14 Since hōs · de they were staying diatribō there ekei several polys days hēmera, · ho Festus Phēstos laid anatithēmi Paul’ s Paulos case kata before anatithēmi the ho king basileus, · ho · ho saying legō, “ There is eimi a tis man anēr left kataleipō by hypo Felix Phēlix, a prisoner desmios. 15 When I egō came ginomai to eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma, the ho chief archiereus priests and kai the ho elders presbyteros of the ho Jews Ioudaios informed emphanizō me about peri him hos, asking aiteō for a guilty verdict katadikē against kata him autos. 16 I answered apokrinomai them hos that hoti it was eimi not ou the custom ethos of the Romans Rhōmaios to turn charizomai anyone tis over before prin ē the ho accused katēgoreō has echō met the ho accusers katēgoros face to face kata and te had an opportunity topos to make lambanō his defense apologia against peri the ho charge enklēma. 17 So oun when they autos met synerchomai here enthade, I made poieō no mēdeis delay anabolē, but on the ho next hexēs day took kathizō my seat on epi the ho judge’ s bēma bench and ordered keleuō the ho man anēr to be brought agō. 18 When the ho accusers katēgoros stood up histēmi, they brought pherō no oudeis charge aitia against peri him hos of such hos evils ponēros as I egō was expecting hyponoeō, 19 but de had echō certain tis questions zētēma about peri · ho their idios own religion deisidaimonia to put to pros him autos and kai about peri a certain tis Jesus Iēsous, who was dead thnēskō, whom hos Paul Paulos claimed phaskō · ho to be alive zaō. 20 Since I egō was uncertain aporeō · de · ho about peri how to investigate zētēsis such houtos questions , I asked legō if ei he wanted boulomai to go poreuō to eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma to be tried krinō there kakei on peri these houtos charges . 21 · ho But de when Paul Paulos had appealed epikaleō to be kept tēreō in custody for eis the ho decision diagnōsis of the ho emperor sebastos, I ordered keleuō him autos to be held tēreō until heōs hos I could send anapempō him autos to pros Caesar Kaisar.” 22 Then de Agrippa Agrippas said to pros · ho Festus Phēstos, “ I too kai would like boulomai to hear akouō the ho man anthrōpos myself autos.” “ Tomorrow aurion,” said phēmi he , “ you will hear akouō him autos.”

23 So oun on the ho next epaurion day when Agrippa Agrippas and kai Bernice Bernikē came erchomai · ho · ho with meta great polys pomp phantasia and kai entered eiserchomai eis the ho audience akroatērion hall along syn with the commanding chiliarchos officers and kai the ho prominent exochē men anēr of the ho city polis, and kai when Festus Phēstos had given keleuō the order , · ho Paul Paulos was brought agō in . · ho 24 And kai Festus Phēstos said phēmi, · ho King basileus Agrippa Agrippas, and kai all pas · ho men anēr present sympareimi with us hēmeis, you see theōreō this houtos man about peri whom hos the ho whole hapas Jewish Ioudaios people plēthos · ho petitioned entynchanō me egō, both te in en Jerusalem Hierosolyma and kai here enthade, crying boaō out that he autos ought dei not to live zaō any mēketi longer . 25 But de I egō found katalambanō that he autos had done prassō nothing mēdeis worthy axios of death thanatos; and de since he autos himself houtos appealed epikaleō to the ho emperor sebastos, I decided krinō to send pempō him. 26 But I do echō not ou have echō anything tis definite asphalēs about peri him hos to write graphō to my ho lord kyrios. Therefore dio I have brought proagō him autos before epi you hymeis all, and kai especially malista before epi you sy, King basileus Agrippa Agrippas, so hopōs that , when the ho examination anakrisis has been conducted ginomai, I may have echō something tis to write graphō. 27 For gar it seems dokeō unreasonable alogos to me egō, in sending pempō a prisoner desmios, not to sēmainō also kai report sēmainō the ho charges aitia against kata him autos.”

26 So de Agrippa Agrippas said phēmi to pros · ho Paul Paulos, “ You sy have permission epitrepō to speak legō for peri yourself seautou.” Then tote · ho Paul Paulos stretched ekteinō out his ho hand cheir and began to make his defense apologeomai: Regarding peri all pas the things of which hos I am being accused enkaleō by hypo the Jews Ioudaios, King basileus Agrippa Agrippas, I consider hēgeomai myself emautou fortunate makarios that it is before epi you sy that I am about mellō to make my defense apologeomai today sēmeron, especially malista because eimi you sy are eimi well acquainted gnōstēs with all pas the ho customs ethos and kai controversies zētēma of kata the Jews Ioudaios. Therefore dio I beg deomai you to listen to akouō me egō patiently makrothumōs. All pas the ho Jews Ioudaios know oida · ho my egō manner biōsis of life · ho from ek my youth neotēs, which ho from apo the beginning archē was ginomai spent among en · ho my own egō people ethnos in en Jerusalem Hierosolyma, for they have known proginōskō me egō from the first anōthen, if ean they are willing thelō to go on record martyreō, that hoti I lived zaō as a Pharisee Pharisaios according kata to the ho strictest akribēs party hairesis of ho our hēmeteros religious thrēskeia system . And kai now nyn I stand histēmi here on trial krinō because epi of my hope elpis in the ho promise epangelia made ginomai by hypo God theos to eis · ho our hēmeis fathers patēr, · ho to eis which hos · ho our hēmeis twelve dōdekaphylon tribes hope elpizō to attain katantaō, worshipping latreuō strenuously en ekteneia night nyx and kai day hēmera. It is for peri this hos hope elpis, your Excellency basileus, that I am being accused enkaleō by hypo Jews Ioudaios! Why tis is it thought krinō incredible apistos among para you hymeis that ei · ho God theos raises egeirō the dead nekros? I egō thought dokeō to myself emautou that I ought dei to do prassō many polys deeds hostile enantios to pros the ho name onoma of Jesus Iēsous of ho Nazareth Nazōraios. 10 And I did poieō so hos · kai in en Jerusalem Hierosolyma; · kai not only te did katakleiō I egō lock up katakleiō in en prison phylakē many polys of the ho saints hagios, · ho after receiving lambanō authority exousia from para the ho chief archiereus priests , but also te when they autos were put to death anaireō I cast katapherō my vote psēphos against them. 11 And kai I punished timōreō them autos often pollakis in kata all pas the ho synagogues synagōgē and tried to make anankazō them blaspheme blasphēmeō; and te since I was so perissōs vehemently angry emmainomai at them autos, I pursued diōkō them even heōs · kai to eis · ho foreign exō cities polis.

12  On en one of these hos journeys I was poreuō going to eis · ho Damascus Damaskos with meta authority exousia and kai commission epitropē from ho the ho chief archiereus priests , 13 and at midday hēmera I saw on kata the ho way hodos, O king basileus, a light phōs from heaven ouranothen, brighter than hyper · ho the ho sun hēlios, that shone perilampō around me egō and kai those ho who journeyed poreuō with syn me egō. 14 And te when we hēmeis had all pas fallen katapiptō to eis the ho ground , I heard akouō a voice phōnē saying legō to pros me egō in the ho Hebrew Hebrais language dialektos, ‘ Saul Saoul, Saul Saoul, why tis are you persecuting diōkō me egō? It is hard sklēros for you sy to kick laktizō against pros the goads kentron.’ 15 And de I egō said legō, ‘ Who tis are eimi you , Lord kyrios?’ And de the ho Lord kyrios said legō, ‘ I egō am eimi Jesus Iēsous whom hos you sy are persecuting diōkō. 16 But alla get up anistēmi and kai stand histēmi on epi · ho your sy feet pous; for gar I have appeared horaō to you sy for eis this houtos purpose , to appoint procheirizō you sy a servant hypēretēs and kai witness martys both te to the things in which hos you have seen me egō and te to those in which hos I will appear horaō to you sy. 17 I will rescue exaireō you sy from ek your ho people laos and kai from ek the ho Gentiles ethnos, to eis whom hos I egō am sending apostellō you sy 18 to open anoigō their autos eyes ophthalmos, that ho they may turn epistrephō from apo darkness skotos to eis light phōs, and kai from the ho power exousia of ho Satan Satanas to epi · ho God theos, that ho they autos may receive lambanō forgiveness aphesis of sins hamartia and kai a place klēros among en those ho who are sanctified hagiazō by faith pistis · ho in eis me egō.’ 19 So then hothen, King basileus Agrippa Agrippas, I was ginomai not ou disobedient apeithēs to the ho heavenly ouranios vision optasia, 20 but alla I declared apangellō to those ho in en Damascus Damaskos first prōton, then te also kai to those in Jerusalem Hierosolyma and te through all pas the ho region chōra of ho Judea Ioudaia, and kai to the ho Gentiles ethnos, that they should repent metanoeō and kai turn epistrephō to epi · ho God theos, performing prassō works ergon worthy axios of ho repentance metanoia. 21 It was for that houtos reason that the Jews Ioudaios seized syllambanō me egō in en the ho temple hieron and tried peiraō to kill diacheirizō me. 22 Obtaining tynchanō help epikouria, therefore oun, · ho from apo · ho God theos, until achri · ho this houtos day hēmera I have stood histēmi testifying martyreō both te to small mikros and kai great megas, saying legō nothing oudeis beyond ektos what hos the ho prophets prophētēs and kai Moses Mōysēs said laleō would mellō come ginomai to pass : 23 that ei the ho Christ Christos was to suffer pathētos and, as ei the first prōtos to ek rise anastasis from the dead nekros, he would mellō proclaim katangellō light phōs both te to our ho people laos and kai to the ho Gentiles ethnos.”

24 As Paul autos was saying apologeomai these houtos things · de in his defense apologeomai, · ho Festus Phēstos said phēmi in a loud megas · ho voice phōnē, “ You are out of your mind mainomai, Paul Paulos! · ho Much polys learning gramma is driving peritrepō you sy insane eis mania!” 25 · ho But de Paul Paulos said phēmi, “ I am not ou out mainomai of my mind , most kratistos excellent Festus Phēstos, but alla true alētheia and kai rational sōphrosynē are the words rhēma that I declare apophthengomai. 26 For gar the ho king basileus knows epistamai about peri these houtos matters , and to pros him hos · kai I am speaking laleō boldly parrēsiazomai, for gar I am persuaded peithō that none outheis of these houtos things has escaped lanthanō his autos notice lanthanō, for gar this houtos was eimi not ou done prassō in en a corner gōnia. 27 Do you believe pisteuō, King basileus Agrippa Agrippas, in the ho prophets prophētēs? I know oida that hoti you believe pisteuō.” 28 · ho Then de Agrippa Agrippas said to pros · ho Paul Paulos, “ In en too oligos short a time you believe peithō you are making poieō a Christian Christianos of me egō.” 29 · ho · de Paul Paulos replied, “ I would euchomai to ho God theos that whether kai the time be short en oligos or kai long en megas, not ou only monon you sy but alla also kai all pas those ho who are listening akouō to me egō today sēmeron would also kai become ginomai as toioutos hopoios I egō am eimi, except parektos for · ho these houtos chains desmos.” 30 Then te the ho king basileus stood anistēmi up , and kai the ho governor hēgemōn · ho and te Bernice Bernikē and kai those ho sitting synkathēmai with them autos; 31 and kai after they had left anachōreō the room , they spoke laleō to pros one allēlōn another , saying legō, “ This houtos man anthrōpos is doing prassō nothing oudeis worthy axios of death thanatos or ē imprisonment desmos.” · ho 32 And de Agrippa Agrippas said phēmi to ho Festus Phēstos, “ This houtos man anthrōpos could have dynamai been set apolyō free · ho if ei he had not appealed epikaleō to Caesar Kaisar.”

27 And de when hōs it was decided krinō that ho we hēmeis would sail apopleō for eis · ho Italy Italia, they delivered paradidōmi · ho Paul Paulos and kai some tis other heteros prisoners desmōtēs to a centurion hekatontarchēs, named onoma Julius Ioulios, of the Augustan sebastos Cohort speira. And de embarking epibainō on a ship ploion from Adramyttium Adramyttēnos, which was about mellō to sail pleō to eis · ho ports topos along kata the coast of · ho Asia Asia, we put to sea anagō. Aristarchus Aristarchos, a Macedonian Makedōn from Thessalonica Thessalonikeus was eimi with syn us hēmeis. The ho next heteros day we put katagō in at eis Sidon Sidōn; and te Julius Ioulios treated chraomai Paul Paulos kindly philanthrōpōs · ho · ho and allowed epitrepō him to go poreuō to pros his ho friends philos and be tynchanō cared epimeleia for . And putting out to sea anagō from kakeithen there , we sailed hypopleō under the lee of · ho Cyprus Kypros, because dia · ho the ho winds anemos were eimi against enantios us. And when we had sailed across diapleō the ho open pelagos sea · ho along kata the coast of · ho Cilicia Kilikia and kai Pamphylia Pamphylia, we came katerchomai to eis Myra Myra in ho Lycia Lykia. There kakei the ho centurion hekatontarchēs found heuriskō a ship ploion from Alexandria Alexandrinos sailing pleō for eis · ho Italy Italia and put us hēmeis on board embibazō it autos. We sailed slowly bradyploeō for en a number hikanos of · de days hēmera and kai arrived ginomai with difficulty molis off kata · ho Cnidus Knidos, and as the ho wind anemos did not allow proseaō us hēmeis to go farther , we sailed hypopleō under the lee of · ho Crete Krētē off kata Salmone Salmōnē. Sailing past paralegomai it autos with difficulty molis, we came erchomai to eis a tis place topos called kaleō Fair kalos Havens limēn, near engys to which hos was eimi the city polis Lasea Lasaia.

Since de considerable hikanos time chronos had passed diaginomai and kai the ho voyage was eimi now ēdē dangerous episphalēs because dia · ho · kai the ho fast nēsteia had already ēdē gone parerchomai by , Paul Paulos advised paraineō · ho them, 10 saying legō, “ Gentlemen anēr, I perceive theōreō that hoti the ho voyage that is about mellō to take place eimi will involve meta injury hybris and kai much polys loss zēmia, not ou only monon of the ho cargo phortion and kai the ho ship ploion, but alla also kai of ho our hēmeis lives psychē.” 11 But de the ho centurion hekatontarchēs was peithō more mallon convinced by peithō the ho captain kybernētēs and kai the ho ship’ s nauklēros owner than ē by hypo what ho Paul Paulos was saying legō. 12 And de since the ho harbor limēn was hyparchō unsuitable aneuthetos to pros winter paracheimasia in , the ho majority polys made tithēmi a decision boulē to put anagō out to sea from ekeithen there , if ei somehow pōs they might be able dynamai to reach katantaō Phoenix Phoinix, a harbor limēn of ho Crete Krētē, facing blepō both southwest kata lips and kai northwest kata chōros, and spend the winter paracheimazō there.

13 Now de when the south wind notos blew hypopneō gently , thinking dokeō that they had obtained krateō their ho purpose prothesis, they weighed airō anchor and sailed paralegomai along · ho Crete Krētē, close to the shore asson. 14 But de soon meta ou a violent typhōnikos wind anemos, called kaleō the northeaster eurakylōn, rushed ballō down kata from Crete autos. · ho 15 And de when the ho ship ploion was caught synarpazō by it and kai could dynamai not head antophthalmeō into the ho wind anemos, we gave epididōmi way and allowed pherō ourselves to be driven along . 16 · de Running hypotrechō under the lee of a tis small island nēsion called kaleō Cauda Kauda, we were able ischuō with difficulty molis to get ginomai the ho dinghy skaphē under control perikratēs. 17 After hoisting airō it hos up airō, they passed chraomai cables boētheia under the ho ship ploion to hold hypozōnnymi it together . Then te, fearing phobeomai that they would run aground ekpiptō on eis the ho Syrtis Syrtis, they lowered chalaō the ho sea skeuos anchor , and thus houtōs they let the ship be driven pherō along . 18 · de Since we hēmeis were being pounded cheimazō so violently sphodrōs by the storm , the ho next hexēs day they began to poieō throw cargo ekbolē overboard ; 19 and kai on the ho third tritos day they threw the ho ship’ s ploion tackle skeuē · ho overboard rhiptō with their own hands autocheir. 20 When neither mēte · de sun hēlios nor mēte stars astron appeared epiphainō for epi many polys days hēmera, and te no ou small oligos storm cheimōn continued epikeimai to rage , all pas hope elpis of ho our hēmeis being saved sōzō was periaireō at last loipos abandoned periaireō.

21 Since hyparchō they had hyparchō long polys been hyparchō without asitia food , Paul Paulos stood histēmi up · ho in en their autos midst mesos and said legō, “ Men anēr, you should dei have followed peitharcheō my egō advice and not set anagō sail from apo · ho Crete Krētē and te incurred kerdainō · ho this houtos injury hybris and kai · ho loss zēmia. 22 And kai · ho now nyn I advise paraineō you hymeis to be of good euthumeō courage ; for gar there will be eimi no oudeis loss apobolē of life psychē among ek you hymeis, but only plēn of the ho ship ploion. 23 For gar there stood paristēmi by me egō this houtos · ho night nyx an angel angelos of the ho God theos whose hos I egō am eimi and kai whom hos I serve latreuō, 24 saying legō, ‘ Do not be afraid phobeomai, Paul Paulos; you sy must dei stand paristēmi before Caesar Kaisar; and kai behold idou, God theos has granted charizomai you sy as a gift · ho all pas those ho who sail pleō with meta you sy.’ 25 So dio be of good courage euthumeō, men anēr, for gar I have faith pisteuō in ho God theos that hoti it will be eimi so houtōs, just tropos as kata it hos has been told laleō me egō. 26 But de we hēmeis must dei run ekpiptō aground on eis some tis island nēsos.”

27 And de when hōs it was ginomai the fourteenth tessareskaidekatos night nyx, as we hēmeis were being driven diapherō about in en the ho Adriatic Adrias Sea, about kata midnight mesos ho · ho the ho sailors nautēs suspected hyponoeō that they autos were nearing prosagō land chōra. 28 So kai they took bolizō soundings and found heuriskō twenty eikosi fathoms orgyuia; and de after diistēmi a short brachus distance diistēmi they took soundings bolizō again palin and kai found heuriskō fifteen dekapente fathoms orgyuia. 29 Fearing phobeomai that we might run aground ekpiptō on kata the rocky trachus coast topos, they dropped rhiptō four tessares anchors ankyra from ek the stern prymna and prayed euchomai for day hēmera to come ginomai. 30 But de when the ho sailors nautēs tried zēteō to escape pheugō from ek the ho ship ploion and kai had lowered chalaō the ho dinghy skaphē into eis the ho sea thalassa pretending prophasis they intended mellō to let down ekteinō anchors ankyra from ek the bow prōra, 31 Paul Paulos said legō · ho to the ho centurion hekatontarchēs and kai the ho soldiers stratiōtēs, “ If ean these men houtos do not remain menō in en the ho ship ploion, you hymeis cannot ou be saved sōzō.” 32 Then tote the ho soldiers stratiōtēs cut apokoptō the ho ropes schoinion from the ho dinghy skaphē and kai let eaō it autos drift ekpiptō away .

33 As achri · de day hēmera was about mellō to dawn ginomai, Paul Paulos urged parakaleō · ho them all hapas to take metalambanō some food trophē, saying legō, “ Today sēmeron is the fourteenth tessareskaidekatos day hēmera that you have continued diateleō in suspense prosdokaō and been without food asitos, having taken proslambanō nothing mēdeis. 34 Therefore dio I urge parakaleō you hymeis to take metalambanō some food trophē; for gar this houtos is hyparchō for pros · ho your hymeteros survival sōtēria, for gar not oudeis a hair thrix will perish apollymi from apo the ho head kephalē of any of you hymeis.” 35 And de when he had said legō these houtos things , he took lambanō bread artos, and kai giving eucharisteō thanks to ho God theos before enōpion them all pas, · kai he broke klaō it and began archō to eat esthiō. 36 So de everyone pas was ginomai encouraged euthumos and kai they themselves autos took proslambanō food trophē. 37 We were eimi · de in · ho all pas two hundred diakosioi seventy-six hebdomēkonta persons psychē on en the ho ship ploion. 38 And de when they had eaten trophē enough korennymi, they lightened kouphizō the ho ship ploion, throwing ekballō the ho wheat sitos out into eis the ho sea thalassa.

39 Now de when hote it was ginomai day hēmera, they did epiginōskō not ou recognize epiginōskō the ho land , but de they noticed katanoeō a tis bay kolpos that had echō a beach aigialos, on eis which hos they planned bouleuō, if ei possible dynamai, to run exōtheō the ho ship ploion ashore . 40 So kai they cut loose periaireō the ho anchors ankyra, left eaō them in eis the ho sea thalassa, and at the same hama time untied aniēmi the ho ropes zeuktēria that held the ho rudders pēdalion. Then kai hoisting epairō the ho foresail artemōn to the ho wind pneō, they made katechō for eis the ho beach aigialos. 41 But de caught peripiptō in eis some topos crosscurrents dithalassos, they ran epikellō the ho ship naus aground ; · kai the ho bow prōra stuck ereidō and remained menō immovable asaleutos, but de the ho stern prymna began to break lyō up by hypo the ho force bia of the ho waves kyma. 42 It was ginomai the plan boulē of the ho · de soldiers stratiōtēs to hina kill apokteinō the ho prisoners desmōtēs, so none mē tis could escape diapheugō by swimming ekkolymbaō away . 43 But de the ho centurion hekatontarchēs, wanting boulomai to spare diasōzō · ho Paul’ s Paulos life, prevented kōlyō them autos from · ho carrying boulēma out their plan ; and te he ordered keleuō those ho who could dynamai swim kolymbaō to throw aporiptō themselves overboard first prōtos and make for epi the ho land , 44 and kai the ho rest loipos, some hos men on epi planks sanis and de others hos on epi pieces tis · ho of apo the ho ship ploion. And kai so houtōs it came ginomai about that all pas escaped diasōzō safely to epi the ho land .

28 And kai when we had escaped diasōzō safely , then tote we learned epiginōskō that hoti the ho island nēsos was called kaleō Malta Melitē. The ho native barbaros people showed parechō us hēmeis no ou · ho ordinary tynchanō kindness philanthrōpia, for gar they kindled haptō a fire pyra and welcomed proslambanō us hēmeis all pas, because dia it had begun to ephistēmi · ho rain hyetos · ho and kai because dia of the ho cold psychos. When Paul Paulos had gathered systrephō · de · ho a tis bundle plēthos of sticks phryganon and kai put epitithēmi them on epi the ho fire pyra, a viper echidna came out exerchomai from apo the ho heat thermē and fastened kathaptō onto · ho his autos hand cheir. When hōs · de the ho native people barbaros saw the ho creature thērion hanging kremannymi from ek · ho his autos hand cheir, they said legō to pros each allēlōn other , “ Certainly pantōs this houtos man anthrōpos is eimi a murderer phoneus, · ho and though he hos has escaped diasōzō from ek the ho sea thalassa, · ho justice dikē has eaō not ou allowed eaō him to live zaō.” But oun Paul ho shook apotinassō the ho creature thērion off into eis the ho fire pyr and suffered paschō no oudeis harm kakos. They ho · de were expecting prosdokaō that he autos was going mellō to swell pimprēmi up or ē suddenly aphnō fall katapiptō down dead nekros; but de when prosdokaō they autos waited prosdokaō a long time epi and kai saw theōreō no mēdeis misfortune atopos happen ginomai to eis him autos, they changed metaballō their minds and said legō that he autos was eimi a god theos.

Now de in en the ho region around peri · ho that ekeinos place topos were hyparchō fields chōrion belonging to the ho leading prōtos man of the ho island nēsos, by name onoma Publius Poplios, who hos welcomed anadechomai us hēmeis and for three treis days hēmera entertained xenizō us hospitably philophronōs. It happened ginomai that · de the ho father patēr of ho Publius Poplios lay katakeimai sick with bouts synechō of fever pyretos and kai with dysentery dysenterion. Paul Paulos visited eiserchomai him hos, · ho and kai when he had prayed proseuchomai, he laid epitithēmi his ho hands cheir on him autos and healed iaomai him autos. And de when this houtos happened ginomai, the ho rest loipos of the ho people on en the ho island nēsos who had echō diseases astheneia also kai came proserchomai and kai were cured therapeuō. 10 They hos also kai honored timaō us hēmeis with many polys honors timē, and kai when we were getting anagō ready to sail , they put epitithēmi · ho on pros board whatever ho we needed chreia.

11 After meta · de three treis months mēn we put out anagō to sea in en a ship ploion that had wintered paracheimazō at en the ho island nēsos, a ship of Alexandria Alexandrinos, with the “ Heavenly Twins Dioskouroi” as a figurehead parasēmos. 12 And kai when we put katagō in at eis Syracuse Syrakousai, we stayed epimenō there three treis days hēmera. 13 From there hothen we circled periaireō round and came katantaō to eis Rhegium Rhēgion; and kai after meta one heis day hēmera a south wind notos came epiginomai up , and on the following deuteraios day we arrived erchomai in eis Puteoli Potioloi, 14 where hou we found heuriskō brethren adelphos, and were invited parakaleō to stay epimenō with para them autos seven hepta days hēmera. And kai so houtōs we went erchomai toward eis · ho Rome Rhōmē. 15 And the ho brothers adelphos there kakeithen, when they heard akouō · ho about peri us hēmeis, came erchomai as achri far as the Forum phoron of Appius Appios and kai Three treis Taverns tabernai to eis meet apantēsis us hēmeis. On seeing them hos, · ho Paul Paulos gave thanks eucharisteō to ho God theos and took lambanō courage tharsos. 16 And de when hote we entered eiserchomai Rome Rhōmē, Paul Paulos was allowed epitrepō · ho to stay menō by kata himself heautou, with syn a soldier stratiōtēs · ho guarding phylassō him autos.
