| [1]AndG1161 SaulG4569, yetG2089 breathing outG1709[G5723] threateningsG547 andG2532 slaughterG5408 againstG1519 the disciplesG3101 of the LordG2962, wentG4334[G5631] unto the high priestG749, |
[1]And Saul yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high Priest, |
| [2]And desiredG154[G5668] ofG3844 himG846 lettersG1992 toG1519 DamascusG1154 toG4314 the synagoguesG4864, thatG3704 ifG1437 he foundG2147[G5632] anyG5100 of this wayG3598, whetherG5037 they wereG5607[G5752] menG435 orG2532 womenG1135, he might bring themG71[G5632] boundG1210[G5772] untoG1519 JerusalemG2419. |
[2]And desired of him letters to Damascus to the Synagogues, that if he found any that were of that way (either men or women) he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem. |
| [3]AndG1161 as heG846 journeyedG4198[G5738][G1722], he cameG1096[G5633] nearG1448[G5721] DamascusG1154: andG2532 suddenlyG1810 there shined round aboutG4015[G5656] himG846 a lightG5457 fromG575 heavenG3772: |
[3]Now as he journeyed, it came to pass that as he was come near to Damascus, suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven. |
| [4]AndG2532 he fellG4098[G5631] toG1909 the earthG1093, and heardG191[G5656] a voiceG5456 sayingG3004[G5723] unto himG846, SaulG4549, SaulG4549, whyG5101 persecutest thouG1377[G5719] meG3165? |
[4]And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice, saying to him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? |
| [5]AndG1161 he saidG2036[G5627], WhoG5101 art thouG1488[G5748], LordG2962? AndG1161 the LordG2962 saidG2036[G5627], IG1473 amG1510[G5748] JesusG2424 whomG3739 thouG4771 persecutestG1377[G5719]: it is hardG4642 for theeG4671 to kickG2979[G5721] againstG4314 the pricksG2759. |
[5]And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against pricks. |
| [6]AndG5037 he tremblingG5141[G5723] andG2532 astonishedG2284[G5723] saidG2036[G5627], LordG2962, whatG5101 wilt thou haveG2309[G5719] meG3165 to doG4160[G5658]? AndG2532 the LordG2962 said untoG4314 himG846, AriseG450[G5628], andG2532 goG1525[G5628] intoG1519 the cityG4172, andG2532 it shall be toldG2980[G5701] theeG4671 whatG5101 thouG4571 mustG1163[G5748] doG4160.[G5721] |
[6]He then both trembling and astonished, said, Lord, what wilt thou that I do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou shalt do. |
| [7]AndG1161 the menG435 whichG3588 journeyedG4922[G5723] with himG846 stoodG2476[G5715] speechlessG1769, hearingG191[G5723][G3303] a voiceG5456, butG1161 seeingG2334[G5723] no manG3367. |
[7]The men also which journeyed with him, stood amazed, hearing his voice, but seeing no man. |
| [8]AndG1161 SaulG4569 aroseG1453[G5681] fromG575 the earthG1093; andG1161 when hisG846 eyesG3788 were openedG455[G5772], he sawG991[G5707] no manG3762: butG1161 they ledG5496 himG846 by the handG5496[G5723], and broughtG1521[G5627] him intoG1519 DamascusG1154. |
[8]And Saul arose from the ground, and opened his eyes, but saw no man. Then led they him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus, |
| [9]AndG2532 he wasG2258[G5713] threeG5140 daysG2250 withoutG3361 sightG991[G5723], andG2532 neitherG3756 did eatG5315[G5627] norG3761 drinkG4095.[G5627] |
[9]Where he was three days without sight, and neither ate nor drank. |
| [10]AndG1161 there wasG2258[G5713] a certainG5100 discipleG3101 atG1722 DamascusG1154, namedG3686 AnaniasG367; andG2532 toG4314 himG846 saidG2036[G5627] the LordG2962 inG1722 a visionG3705, AnaniasG367. AndG1161 he saidG2036[G5627], BeholdG2400[G5628], IG1473 am here, LordG2962. |
[10]And there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias, and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord. |
| [11]AndG1161 the LordG2962 said untoG4314 himG846, AriseG450[G5631], and goG4198[G5676] intoG1909 the streetG4505 whichG3588 is calledG2564[G5746] StraightG2117, andG2532 enquireG2212[G5657] inG1722 the houseG3614 of JudasG2455 for one calledG3686 SaulG4569, of TarsusG5018: forG1063, beholdG2400[G5628], G4336he prayethG5736 |
[11]Then the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and seek in the house of Judas after one called Saul of Tarsus: for behold, he prayeth. |
| [12]AndG2532 hath seenG1492[G5627] inG1722 a visionG3705 a manG435 namedG3686 AnaniasG367 coming inG1525[G5631], andG2532 puttingG2007 his handG5495 onG2007[G5631] himG846, thatG3704 he might receive his sightG308.[G5661] |
[12](And he saw in a vision a man named Ananias coming in to him, and putting his hands on him, that he might receive his sight.) |
| [13]ThenG1161 AnaniasG367 answeredG611[G5662], LordG2962, I have heardG191[G5754] byG575 manyG4183 ofG4012 thisG5127 manG435, how muchG3745 evilG2556 he hath doneG4160[G5656] to thyG4675 saintsG40 atG1722 JerusalemG2419: |
[13]Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem. |
| [14]AndG2532 hereG5602 he hathG2192[G5719] authorityG1849 fromG3844 the chief priestsG749 to bindG1210[G5658] allG3956 that callG1941[G5734] on thyG4675 nameG3686. |
[14]Moreover here he hath authority of the high Priests, to bind all that call on thy Name. |
| [15]ButG1161 the LordG2962 saidG2036[G5627] untoG4314 himG846, Go thy wayG4198[G5737]: forG3754 heG3778 isG2076[G5748] a chosenG1589 vesselG4632 unto meG3427, to bearG941[G5658] myG3450 nameG3686 beforeG1799 the GentilesG1484, andG2532 kingsG935, andG5037 the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474: |
[15]Then the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my Name before the Gentiles, and Kings, and the children of Israel. |
| [16]ForG1063 IG1473 will shewG5263[G5692] himG846 how great thingsG3745 heG846 mustG1163[G5748] sufferG3958[G5629] forG5228 myG3450 name's sakeG3686.[G5228] |
[16]For I will show him, how many things he must suffer for my Name's sake. |
| [17]AndG1161 AnaniasG367 went his wayG565[G5627], andG2532 enteredG1525[G5627] intoG1519 the houseG3614; andG2532 puttingG2007[G5631] his handsG5495 onG1909 himG846 saidG2036[G5627], BrotherG80 SaulG4549, the LordG2962, even JesusG2424, that appearedG3700[G5685] unto theeG4671 inG1722 the wayG3598 asG3739 thou camestG2064[G5711], hath sentG649[G5758] meG3165, thatG3704 thou mightest receive thy sightG308[G5661], andG2532 be filled withG4130[G5686] the HolyG40 GhostG4151. |
[17]Then Ananias went his way, and entered into the house, and put his hands on him, and said, Brother Saul, the Lord hath sent me ( even Jesus that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest) that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost. |
| [18]AndG2532 immediatelyG2112 there fellG634[G5627] fromG575 hisG846 eyesG3788 asG5616 it had been scalesG3013: and he received sightG308[G5656] forthwithG3916, andG5037 aroseG450[G5631], andG2532 was baptizedG907.[G5681] |
[18]And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales, and suddenly he received sight, and arose, and was baptized, |
| [19]AndG2532 when he had receivedG2983[G5631] meatG5160, he was strengthenedG1765[G5656]. ThenG1161 wasG1096[G5633] SaulG4569 certainG5100 daysG2250 withG3326 the disciplesG3101 which were atG1722 DamascusG1154. |
[19]And received meat, and was strengthened. So was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus. |
| [20]AndG2532 straightwayG2112 he preachedG2784[G5707] ChristG5547 inG1722 the synagoguesG4864, thatG3754 heG3778 isG2076[G5748] the SonG5207 of GodG2316. |
[20]And straightway he preached Christ in the Synagogues, that he was the Son of God, |
| [21]ButG1161 allG3956 that heardG191[G5723] him were amazedG1839[G5710], andG2532 saidG3004[G5707]; IsG2076[G5748] notG3756 thisG3778 he that destroyedG4199[G5660] them whichG3588 called onG1941[G5734] thisG5124 nameG3686 inG1722 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 cameG2064[G5715] hitherG5602 forG1519 thatG5124 intentG1519, thatG2443 he might bringG71[G5632] themG846 boundG1210[G5772] untoG1909 the chief priestsG749? |
[21]So that all that heard him, were amazed, and said, Is not this he, that destroyed them which called on this Name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he should bring them bound unto the high Priests? |
| [22]ButG1161 SaulG4569 increasedG1743 the moreG3123 in strengthG1743[G5712], andG2532 confoundedG4797[G5707] the JewsG2453 whichG3588 dweltG2730[G5723] atG1722 DamascusG1154, provingG4822[G5723] thatG3754 thisG3778 isG2076[G5748] very ChristG5547. |
[22]But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, confirming, that this was the Christ. |
| [23]AndG1161 afterG5613 that manyG2425 daysG2250 were fulfilledG4137[G5712], the JewsG2453 took counselG4823[G5668] to killG337[G5629] himG846: |
[23]And after that many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel together, to kill him. |
| [24]ButG1161 theirG846 laying awaitG1917 was knownG1097[G5681] of SaulG4569. AndG5037 they watchedG3906[G5707] the gatesG4439 dayG2250 andG2532 nightG3571 toG3704 killG337[G5661] himG846. |
[24]But their laying await was known of Saul: now they watched the gates day and night, that they might kill him. |
| [25]ThenG1161 the disciplesG3101 tookG2983[G5631] himG846 by nightG3571, and let him downG2524[G5656][G5465][G5660] byG1223 the wallG5038 inG1722 a basketG4711. |
[25]Then the disciples took him by night, and put him through the wall, and let him down in a basket. |
| [26]AndG1161 when SaulG4569 was comeG3854[G5637] toG1519 JerusalemG2419, he assayedG3987[G5711] to join himselfG2853[G5745] to the disciplesG3101: butG2532 they wereG5399 allG3956 afraidG5399[G5711] of himG846, and believedG4100[G5723] notG3361 thatG3754 he wasG2076[G5748] a discipleG3101. |
[26]And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to join himself with the disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and believed not that he was a disciple. |
| [27]ButG1161 BarnabasG921 tookG1949[G5637] himG846, and broughtG71[G5627] him toG4314 the apostlesG652, andG2532 declaredG1334[G5662] unto themG846 howG4459 he had seenG1492[G5627] the LordG2962 inG1722 the wayG3598, andG2532 thatG3754 he had spokenG2980[G5656] to himG846, andG2532 howG4459 he had preached boldlyG3955[G5662] atG1722 DamascusG1154 inG1722 the nameG3686 of JesusG2424. |
[27]But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the Apostles, and declared to them, how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken unto him, and how he had spoken boldly at Damascus in the Name of Jesus. |
| [28]AndG2532 he wasG2258[G5713] withG3326 themG846 coming inG1531[G5740] andG2532 going outG1607[G5740] atG1722 JerusalemG2419. |
[28]And he was conversant with them at Jerusalem, |
| [29]AndG2532 he spakeG2980[G5707] boldlyG3955[G5740] inG1722 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, andG5037[G2532] disputedG4802[G5707] againstG4314 the GreciansG1675: butG1161 they went aboutG2021[G5707] to slayG337[G5629] himG846. |
[29]And spake boldly in the Name of the Lord Jesus, and spake and disputed with the Grecians: but they went about to slay him. |
| [30]Which whenG1161 the brethrenG80 knewG1921[G5631], they broughtG2609 himG846 downG2609[G5627] toG1519 CaesareaG2542, andG2532 sentG1821 himG846 forthG1821[G5656] toG1519 TarsusG5019. |
[30]But when the brethren knew it, they brought him to Cesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus. |
| [31]ThenG3303[G3767] hadG2192[G5707] the churchesG1577 restG1515 throughoutG2596 allG3650 JudaeaG2449 andG2532 GalileeG1056 andG2532 SamariaG4540, and were edifiedG3618[G5746]; andG2532 walking inG4198[G5740] the fearG5401 of the LordG2962, andG2532 in the comfortG3874 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151, were multipliedG4129.[G5712] |
[31]Then had the Churches rest through all Judea, and Galilee, and Samaria, and were edified, and walked in the fear of the Lord, and were multiplied by the comfort of the Holy Ghost. |
| [32]AndG1161 it cameG1096[G5633] to pass, asG1330 PeterG4074 passed throughoutG1330[G5740][G1223] allG3956 quarters, he came downG2718[G5629] alsoG2532 toG4314 the saintsG40 whichG3588 dweltG2730[G5723] at LyddaG3069. |
[32]And it came to pass, as Peter walked throughout all quarters, he came also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda. |
| [33]AndG1161 thereG1563 he foundG2147[G5627] a certainG5100 manG444 namedG3686 AeneasG132, which had keptG2621[G5740][G1909] his bedG2895[G1537] eightG3638 yearsG2094, andG3739 wasG2258[G5713] sick of the palsyG3886.[G5772] |
[33]And there he found a certain man named AEneas, which had kept his bed eight years, and was sick of the palsy. |
| [34]AndG2532 PeterG4074 saidG2036[G5627] unto himG846, AeneasG132, JesusG2424 ChristG5547 makethG2390 theeG4571 wholeG2390[G5736]: ariseG450[G5628], andG2532 makeG4766 thyG4572 bedG4766[G5657]. AndG2532 he aroseG450[G5627] immediatelyG2112. |
[34]Then said Peter unto him, AEneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise and make up thy bed. And he arose immediately. |
| [35]AndG2532 allG3956 that dweltG2730[G5723] at LyddaG3069 andG2532 SaronG4565 sawG1492[G5627] himG846, andG3748 turnedG1994[G5656] toG1909 the LordG2962. |
[35]And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron, saw him, and turned to the Lord. |
| [36]NowG1161 there wasG2258[G5713] atG1722 JoppaG2445 a certainG5100 discipleG3102 namedG3686 TabithaG5000, whichG3739 by interpretationG1329[G5746] is calledG3004[G5743] DorcasG1393: this womanG3778[G5625][G846] wasG2258[G5713] fullG4134 of goodG18 worksG2041 andG2532 almsdeedsG1654 whichG3739 she didG4160.[G5707] |
[36]There was also at Joppa a certain woman, a disciple named Tabitha (which by interpretation is called Dorcas) she was full of good works and alms which she did. |
| [37]AndG1161 it came to passG1096[G5633] inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG2250, that she was sickG770[G5660], and diedG599[G5629]: whom whenG1161 theyG846 had washedG3068[G5660][G846], they laidG5087[G5656] her inG1722 an upper chamberG5253. |
[37]And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick and died: and when they had washed her, they laid her in an upper chamber. |
| [38]AndG1161 forasmuch asG5607[G5752] LyddaG3069 was nighG1451 to JoppaG2445, and the disciplesG3101 had heardG191[G5660] thatG3754 PeterG4074 wasG2076[G5748] thereG1722[G846], they sentG649[G5656] untoG4314 himG846 twoG1417 menG435, desiringG3870[G5723] him that he wouldG3635 notG3361 delayG3635[G5658] to comeG1330[G5629] toG2193 themG846. |
[38]Now forasmuch as Lydda was near to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring that he would not delay to come unto them. |
| [39]ThenG1161 PeterG4074 aroseG450[G5631] and went withG4905[G5627] themG846. When heG3739 was comeG3854[G5637], they brought himG321[G5627] intoG1519 the upper chamberG5253: andG2532 allG3956 the widowsG5503 stood byG3936[G5656] himG846 weepingG2799[G5723], andG2532 shewingG1925[G5734] the coatsG5509 andG2532 garmentsG2440 whichG3745 DorcasG1393 madeG4160[G5707], while she wasG5607[G5752] withG3326 themG846. |
[39]Then Peter arose and came with them: and when he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber, where all the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the coats and garments, which Dorcas made, while she was with them. |
| [40]ButG1161 PeterG4074 putG1544[G5631] them allG3956 forthG1854, and kneeled downG5087[G5631][G1119], and prayedG4336[G5662]; andG2532 turningG1994[G5660] him toG4314 the bodyG4983 saidG2036[G5627], TabithaG5000, ariseG450[G5628]. AndG1161 she openedG455[G5656] herG846 eyesG3788: andG2532 when she sawG1492[G5631] PeterG4074, she sat upG339.[G5656] |
[40]But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed, and turned him to the body, and said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, sat up. |
| [41]AndG1161 he gaveG1325[G5631] herG846 his handG5495, and liftedG450 herG846 upG450[G5656], andG1161 when he had calledG5455[G5660] the saintsG40 andG2532 widowsG5503, presentedG3936[G5656] herG846 aliveG2198.[G5723] |
[41]Then he gave her the hand and lift her up, and called the saints and widows, and restored her alive. |
| [42]AndG1161 it wasG1096[G5633] knownG1110 throughoutG2596 allG3650 JoppaG2445; andG2532 manyG4183 believedG4100[G5656] inG1909 the LordG2962. |
[42]And it was known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord. |
| [43]AndG1161 it came to passG1096[G5633], that heG846 tarriedG3306[G5658] manyG2425 daysG2250 inG1722 JoppaG2445 withG3844 oneG5100 SimonG4613 a tannerG1038. |
[43]And it came to pass that he tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon a tanner. |
