Acts 14:3

14:3 So they stayed there ¹  for a considerable time, speaking out courageously for the Lord, who testified ²  to the message ³  of his grace, granting miraculous signs ⁴  and wonders to be performed through their hands.

Acts 14:9-10

14:9 This man was listening to Paul as he was speaking. When Paul ⁵  stared ⁶  intently at him and saw he had faith to be healed, 14:10 he said with a loud voice, “Stand upright on your feet.” ⁷  And the man ⁸  leaped up and began walking. ⁹ 

[14:3]  ¹ tn The word “there” is not in the Greek text, but is implied.

[14:3]  ² sn The Lord testified to the message by granting the signs described in the following clause.

[14:3]  ³ tn Grk “word.”

[14:3]  ⁴ tn Here the context indicates the miraculous nature of the signs mentioned.

[14:9]  ⁵ tn Grk “speaking, who.” The relative pronoun has been replaced by the noun “Paul,” and a new sentence begun in the translation because an English relative clause would be very awkward here.

[14:9]  ⁶ tn Or “looked.”

[14:10]  ⁷ tn BDAG 722 s.v. ὀρθός 1.a has “stand upright on your feet.”

[14:10]  ⁸ tn Grk “he”; the referent (the man) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[14:10]  ⁹ tn This verb is imperfect tense in contrast to the previous verb, which is aorist. It has been translated ingressively, since the start of a sequence is in view here.
