| [1]Now when they had passed through Amphipolis, and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews. |
[1]NowG1161 when they had passed throughG1353[G5660] AmphipolisG295 andG2532 ApolloniaG624, they cameG2064[G5627] toG1519 ThessalonicaG2332, whereG3699 wasG2258[G5713] a synagogueG4864 of the JewsG2453: |
| [2]And Paul, as his manner was, went in to them, and on three sabbaths reasoned with them out of the scriptures, |
[2]AndG1161 PaulG3972, asG2596 his manner wasG1486[G5756], went inG1525[G5627] untoG4314 themG846, andG2532[G1909] threeG5140 sabbathG4521 days reasonedG1256[G5711] with themG846 out ofG575 the scripturesG1124, |
| [3]Opening and alledging, that it was needful that Christ should suffer, and rise again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach to you, is Christ. |
[3]OpeningG1272[G5723] andG2532 allegingG3908[G5734], thatG3754 ChristG5547 must needsG1163[G5713] have sufferedG3958[G5629], andG2532 risen againG450[G5629] fromG1537 the deadG3498; andG2532 thatG3754 thisG3778 JesusG2424, whomG3739 IG1473 preachG2605[G5719] unto youG5213, isG2076[G5748] ChristG5547. |
| [4]And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas: and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few. |
[4]AndG2532 someG5100 ofG1537 themG846 believedG3982[G5681], andG2532 consortedG4345[G5681] with PaulG3972 andG2532 SilasG4609; andG5037 of the devoutG4576[G5740] GreeksG1672 a greatG4183 multitudeG4128, andG5037 of the chiefG4413 womenG1135 notG3756 a fewG3641. |
| [5]But the Jews who believed not, moved with envy, took to them certain vile fellows of the baser sort, and gathered a company, and set all the city in an uproar, and assaulted the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people. |
[5]ButG1161 the JewsG2453 which believed notG544[G5723], moved with envyG2206[G5660],[G2532] took unto themG4355[G5642] certainG5100 lewdG4190 fellowsG435 of the baser sortG60, andG2532 gathered a companyG3792[G5660], and set allG2350 the cityG4172 on an uproarG2350[G5707], andG5037 assaultedG2186[G5631] the houseG3614 of JasonG2394, and soughtG2212[G5707] to bringG71[G5629] themG846 outG1519 to the peopleG1218. |
| [6]And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren to the rulers of the city, crying, These that have turned the world upside down, have come hither also; |
[6]AndG1161 when they foundG2147[G5631] themG846 notG3361, they drewG4951[G5707] JasonG2394 andG2532 certainG5100 brethrenG80 untoG1909 the rulers of the cityG4173, cryingG994[G5723],[G3754] TheseG3778 that have turnedG387 the worldG3625 upside downG387[G5660] are comeG3918[G5748] hitherG1759 alsoG2532; |
| [7]Whom Jason hath received: and these all do contrary to the decrees of Cesar, saying, That there is another king, one Jesus. |
[7]WhomG3739 JasonG2394 hath receivedG5264[G5766]: andG2532 theseG3778 allG3956 doG4238[G5719] contraryG561 to the decreesG1378 of CaesarG2541, sayingG3004[G5723] that there isG1511[G5750] anotherG2087 kingG935, one JesusG2424. |
| [8]And they troubled the people, and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things. |
[8]AndG1161 they troubledG5015[G5656] the peopleG3793 andG2532 the rulers of the cityG4173, when they heardG191[G5723] these thingsG5023. |
| [9]And when they had taken security of Jason and of the other, they let them go. |
[9]AndG2532 when they had takenG2983[G5631] securityG2425 ofG3844 JasonG2394, andG2532 of the otherG3062, they letG630 themG846 goG630.[G5656] |
| [10]And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night to Berea: who coming thither, went into the synagogue of the Jews. |
[10]AndG1161 the brethrenG80 immediatelyG2112 sent awayG1599[G5656][G5037] PaulG3972 andG2532 SilasG4609 byG1223 nightG3571 untoG1519 BereaG960: whoG3748 comingG3854[G5637] thither wentG549[G5713] intoG1519 the synagogueG4864 of the JewsG2453. |
| [11]These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. |
[11][G1161]TheseG3778 wereG2258[G5713] more nobleG2104 than those inG1722 ThessalonicaG2332, in that theyG3748 receivedG1209[G5662] the wordG3056 withG3326 allG3956 readiness of mindG4288, and searchedG350[G5723] the scripturesG1124 dailyG2250[G2596], whetherG1487 those thingsG5023 wereG2192[G5722] soG3779. |
| [12]Therefore many of them believed; also of honorable women who were Greeks, and of men not a few. |
[12]ThereforeG3767[G3303] manyG4183 ofG1537 themG846 believedG4100[G5656]; alsoG2532 of honourableG2158 womenG1135 whichG3588 were GreeksG1674, andG2532 of menG435, notG3756 a fewG3641. |
| [13]But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was preached by Paul at Berea, they came thither also, and stirred up the people. |
[13]ButG1161 whenG5613 the JewsG2453 ofG575 ThessalonicaG2332 had knowledgeG1097[G5627] thatG3754[G2532] the wordG3056 of GodG2316 was preachedG2605[G5648] ofG5259 PaulG3972 atG1722 BereaG960, they cameG2064[G5627] thither alsoG2546, and stirred upG4531[G5723] the peopleG3793. |
| [14]And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul, to go as it were to the sea: but Silas and Timothy abode there still. |
[14]AndG1161 thenG5119 immediatelyG2112 the brethrenG80 sent awayG1821[G5656] PaulG3972 to goG4198[G5738] as it wereG5613 toG1909 the seaG2281: butG1161[G5037] SilasG4609 andG2532 TimotheusG5095 abodeG5278 thereG1563 stillG5278.[G5707] |
| [15]And they that conducted Paul brought him to Athens: and receiving a commandment to Silas and Timothy to come to him with all speed, they departed. |
[15]AndG1161 they that conductedG2525[G5723] PaulG3972 broughtG71[G5627] himG846 untoG2193 AthensG116: andG2532 receivingG2983[G5631] a commandmentG1785 untoG4314 SilasG4609 andG2532 TimotheusG5095 for toG2443 comeG2064[G5632] toG4314 himG846 with all speedG5613[G5033], they departedG1826.[G5713] |
| [16]Now, while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry. |
[16]NowG1161 while PaulG3972 waited forG1551[G5740] themG846 atG1722 AthensG116, hisG846 spiritG4151 was stirredG3947[G5712] inG1722 himG846, when he sawG2334[G5723] the cityG4172 wholly givenG5607[G5752] to idolatryG2712. |
| [17]Therefore he disputed in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him. |
[17]ThereforeG3767[G3303] disputed heG1256[G5711] inG1722 the synagogueG4864 with the JewsG2453, andG2532 with the devout personsG4576[G5740], andG2532 inG1722 the marketG58 dailyG2596[G3956][G2250] withG4314 them that met with himG3909.[G5723] |
| [18]Then certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoics, encountered him. And some said, What will this babbler say? some others, He seemeth to be a setter-forth of strange gods: because he preached to them Jesus, and the resurrection. |
[18]ThenG1161 certainG5100 philosophersG5386 of the EpicureansG1946, andG2532 of the StoicksG4770, encounteredG4820[G5707] himG846. AndG2532 someG5100 saidG3004[G5707], WhatG5101 willG302[G2309][G5722] thisG3778 babblerG4691 sayG3004[G5721]?[G1161] other some, He seemethG1380[G5719] to beG1511[G5750] a setter forthG2604 of strangeG3581 godsG1140: becauseG3754 he preachedG2097[G5710] unto themG846 JesusG2424, andG2532 the resurrectionG386. |
| [19]And they took him, and brought him to Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new doctrine is, of which thou speakest? |
[19]AndG5037 they tookG1949[G5637] himG846, and brought himG71[G5627] untoG1909 AreopagusG697, sayingG3004[G5723], MayG1410[G5736] we knowG1097[G5629] whatG5101 thisG3778 newG2537 doctrineG1322, whereofG5259 thouG4675 speakestG2980, isG5746? |
| [20]For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears; we would know therefore what these things mean. |
[20]ForG1063 thou bringestG1533[G5719] certainG5100 strange thingsG3579[G5723] toG1519 ourG2257 earsG189: we wouldG1014[G5736] knowG1097[G5629] thereforeG3767 whatG5101 these thingsG5023 meanG302[G2309][G5722][G1511].[G5750] |
| [21](For all the Athenians and strangers who were there, spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.) |
[21](ForG1161 allG3956 the AtheniansG117 andG2532 strangersG3581 whichG3588 were thereG1927[G5723] spent their timeG2119[G5707] inG1519 nothingG3762 elseG2087, but eitherG2228 to tellG3004[G5721], orG2532 to hearG191[G5721] someG5100 new thingG2537.) |
| [22]Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars-hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious. |
[22]ThenG1161 PaulG3972 stoodG2476[G5685] inG1722 the midstG3319 of Mars' hillG697, and saidG5346[G5713], Ye menG435 of AthensG117, I perceiveG2334[G5719] thatG5613 inG2596 all thingsG3956 yeG5209 are too superstitiousG1174. |
| [23]For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I to you. |
[23]ForG1063 as I passed byG1330[G5740], andG2532 beheldG333[G5723] yourG5216 devotionsG4574,[G2532] I foundG2147[G5627] an altarG1041 with thisG1722[G3739] inscriptionG1924[G5718], TO THE UNKNOWNG57 GODG2316. WhomG3739 thereforeG3767 ye ignorantlyG50[G5723] worshipG2151[G5719], himG5126 declareG2605[G5719] IG1473 unto youG5213. |
| [24]God that made the world, and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; |
[24]GodG2316 that madeG4160[G5660] the worldG2889 andG2532 all thingsG3956 thereinG1722[G846], seeing that heG3778 isG5225[G5723] LordG2962 of heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1093, dwellethG2730[G5719] notG3756 inG1722 templesG3485 made with handsG5499; |
| [25]Neither is worshiped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; |
[25]NeitherG3761 is worshippedG2323[G5743] withG5259 men'sG444 handsG5495, as though he neededG4326[G5740] any thingG5100, seeing heG846 givethG1325[G5723] to allG3956 lifeG2222, andG2532 breathG4157, andG2596 all thingsG3956; |
| [26]And hath made of one blood all nations of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; |
[26]AndG5037 hath madeG4160[G5656] ofG1537 oneG1520 bloodG129 allG3956 nationsG1484 of menG444 for to dwellG2730[G5721] onG1909 allG3956 the faceG4383 of the earthG1093, and hath determinedG3724[G5660] the timesG2540 before appointedG4384[G5772], andG2532 the boundsG3734 of theirG846 habitationG2733; |
| [27]That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he is not far from every one of us: |
[27]That they should seekG2212[G5721] the LordG2962, ifG1487 haplyG686 they might feelG5584[G5659] after himG846, andG2532 find himG2147[G5630], thoughG2544 he beG5225[G5723] notG3756 farG3112 fromG575 everyG1538 oneG1520 of usG2257: |
| [28]For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, for we are also his offspring. |
[28]ForG1063 inG1722 himG846 we liveG2198[G5719], andG2532 moveG2795[G5743], andG2532 have our beingG2070[G5748]; asG5613 certainG5100 alsoG2532 of yourG5209 ownG2596 poetsG4163 have saidG2046[G5758], ForG1063 we areG2070[G5748] alsoG2532 hisG5120 offspringG1085. |
| [29]Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like to gold, or silver, or stone graven by art and man's device. |
[29]Forasmuch thenG3767 as we areG5225[G5723] the offspringG1085 of GodG2316, we oughtG3784[G5719] notG3756 to thinkG3543[G5721] that the GodheadG2304 isG1511[G5750] likeG3664 unto goldG5557, orG2228 silverG696, orG2228 stoneG3037, gravenG5480 by artG5078 andG2532 man'sG444 deviceG1761. |
| [30]And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: |
[30]AndG3303[G3767] the timesG5550 of this ignoranceG52 GodG2316 winked atG5237[G5660]; but nowG3569 commandethG3853[G5719] allG3956 menG444 every whereG3837 to repentG3340:[G5721] |
| [31]Because he hath appointed a day, in which he will judge the world in righteousness, by that man whom he hath ordained: of which he hath given assurance to all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. |
[31]BecauseG1360 he hath appointedG2476[G5656] a dayG2250, inG1722 the whichG3739 he willG3195[G5719] judgeG2919[G5721] the worldG3625 inG1722 righteousnessG1343 byG1722 that manG435 whomG3739 he hath ordainedG3724[G5656]; whereof he hath givenG3930[G5631] assuranceG4102 unto allG3956 men, in that he hath raisedG450[G5660] himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498. |
| [32]And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again concerning this matter. |
[32]AndG1161 when they heardG191[G5660] of the resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498, someG3303 mockedG5512[G5707]: andG1161 others saidG2036[G5627], We will hearG191[G5695] theeG4675 againG3825 ofG4012 this matterG5127. |
| [33]So Paul departed from among them. |
[33]SoG2532[G3779] PaulG3972 departedG1831[G5627] fromG1537 amongG3319 themG846. |
| [34]But certain men adhered to him, and believed: among whom was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them. |
[34]HowbeitG1161 certainG5100 menG435 claveG2853[G5685] unto himG846, and believedG4100[G5656]: amongG1722 the whichG3739[G2532] was DionysiusG1354 the AreopagiteG698, andG2532 a womanG1135 namedG3686 DamarisG1152, andG2532 othersG2087 withG4862 themG846. |
