[2:28]  1 sn A quotation from Ps 16:8-11.

[16:29]  2 tn Grk “he”; the referent (the jailer) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[16:29]  3 tn Or “and prostrated himself.”

[20:23]  3 tn BDAG 826 s.v. πλήν 1.d has “πλὴν ὅτι except thatAc 20:23.”

[20:23]  4 tn The verb διαμαρτύρομαι (diamarturomai) can mean “warn” (BDAG 233 s.v. διαμαρτύρομαι 2 has “solemnly urge, exhort, warn…w. dat. of pers. addressed”), and this meaning better fits the context here, although BDAG categorizes Acts 20:23 under the meaning “testify of, bear witness to” (s.v. 1).

[20:23]  5 tn The Greek text here reads κατὰ πόλιν (kata polin).

[20:23]  6 tn Grk “saying that,” but the participle λέγον (legon) is redundant in English and has not been translated.

[20:23]  7 tn Grk “bonds.”

[20:23]  8 tn Or “troubles,” “suffering.” See Acts 19:21; 21:4, 11.
