Acts 14:6

14:6 Paul and Barnabas ¹  learned about it ²  and fled to the Lycaonian cities of Lystra ³  and Derbe ⁴  and the surrounding region.

Acts 5:2

5:2 He ⁵  kept back for himself part of the proceeds with his wife’s knowledge; he brought ⁶  only part of it and placed it at the apostles’ feet.

Acts 12:12

12:12 When Peter ⁷  realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John Mark, ⁸  where many people had gathered together and were praying.

¹ tn Grk “they”; the referents (Paul and Barnabas) have been specified in the translation for clarity.

² tn Grk “learning about it, fled.” The participle συνιδόντες (sunidonte") has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style. It could also be taken temporally (“when they learned about it”) as long as opening clause of v. 5 is not translated as a temporal clause too, which results in a redundancy.

³ sn Lystra was a city in Lycaonia about 18 mi (30 km) south of Iconium, a Roman colony that was not on the main roads of Lycaonia. Because of its relative isolation, its local character was able to be preserved.

⁴ sn Derbe was a city in Lycaonia about 35 mi (60 km) southeast of Lystra.

⁵ tn Grk “And he.” Because of the length of the Greek sentence and the tendency of contemporary English style to use shorter sentences, καί (kai) has not been translated here.

⁶ tn The participle ἐνέγκας (enenka") has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

⁹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Peter) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

¹⁰ tn Grk “John who was also called Mark.”
