Acts 21:17--23:30

And
<1161>
when we
<2257>
were come
<1096> (5637)
to
<1519>
Jerusalem
<2414>_,
the brethren
<80>
received
<1209> (5662)
us
<2248>
gladly
<780>_.
And
<1161>
the [day] following
<1966> (5752)
Paul
<3972>
went in
<1524> (5715)
with
<4862>
us
<2254>
unto
<4314>
James
<2385>_;
and
<5037>
all
<3956>
the elders
<4245>
were present
<3854> (5633)_.
And
<2532>
when he had saluted
<782> (5666)
them
<846>_,
he declared
<1834> (5711)
particularly
<2596> <1520> <1538>
what things
<3739>
God
<2316>
had wrought
<4160> (5656)
among
<1722>
the Gentiles
<1484>
by
<1223>
his
<846>
ministry
<1248>_.
And
<1161>
when they heard
<191> (5660)
[it], they glorified
<1392> (5707)
the Lord
<2962>_,
and
<5037>
said
<2036> (5627)
unto him
<846>_,
Thou seest
<2334> (5719)_,
brother
<80>_,
how many
<4214>
thousands
<3461>
of Jews
<2453>
there are
<1526> (5748)
which
<3588>
believe
<4100> (5761)_;
and
<2532>
they are
<5225> (5719)
all
<3956>
zealous
<2207>
of the law
<3551>_:
And
<1161>
they are informed
<2727> (5681)
of
<4012>
thee
<4675>_,
that
<3754>
thou teachest
<1321> (5719)
all
<3956>
the Jews
<2453>
which are among
<2596>
the Gentiles
<1484>
to
<575>
forsake
<646>
Moses
<3475>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)
that they
<846>
ought
<4059> (0)
not
<3361>
to circumcise
<4059> (5721)
[their] children
<5043>_,
neither
<3366>
to walk
<4043> (5721)
after the customs
<1485>_.
What
<5101>
is it
<2076> (5748)
therefore
<3767>_?
the multitude
<4128>
must
<1163> (5748)
needs
<3843>
come together
<4905> (5629)_:
for
<1063>
they will hear
<191> (5695)
that
<3754>
thou art come
<2064> (5754)_.
Do
<4160> (5657)
therefore
<3767>
this
<5124>
that
<3739>
we say
<3004> (5719)
to thee
<4671>_:
We
<2254>
have
<1526> (5748)
four
<5064>
men
<435>
which have
<2171> (5723)
a vow
<2192>
on
<1909>
them
<1438>_;
Them
<5128>
take
<3880> (5631)_,
and purify thyself
<48> (5682)
with
<4862>
them
<846>_,
and
<2532>
be at charges
<1159> (5657)
with
<1909>
them
<846>_,
that
<2443>
they may shave
<3587> (5667)
[their] heads
<2776>_:
and
<2532>
all
<3956>
may know
<1097> (5632)
that those things
<3754>_,
whereof
<3739>
they were informed
<2727> (5769)
concerning
<4012>
thee
<4675>_,
are
<2076> (5748)
nothing
<3762>_;
but
<235>
[that] thou thyself
<846>
also
<2532>
walkest orderly
<4748> (5719)_,
and keepest
<5442> (5723)
the law
<3551>_.
As
<1161>
touching
<4012>
the Gentiles
<1484>
which believe
<4100> (5761)_,
we
<2249>
have written
<1989> (5656)
[and] concluded
<2919> (5660)
that they
<846>
observe
<5083> (5721)
no
<3367>
such thing
<5108>_,
save only
<1508>
that they keep
<5442> (5733)
themselves
<846>
from
<5037>
[things] offered to idols
<1494>_,
and
<2532>
from blood
<129>_,
and
<2532>
from strangled
<4156>_,
and
<2532>
from fornication
<4202>_.
Then
<5119>
Paul
<3972>
took
<3880> (5631)
the men
<435>_,
and the next
<2192> (5746)
day
<2250>
purifying himself
<48> (5685)
with
<4862>
them
<846>
entered
<1524> (5715)
into
<1519>
the temple
<2411>_,
to signify
<1229> (5723)
the accomplishment
<1604>
of the days
<2250>
of purification
<49>_,
until
<2193>
that
<3739>
an offering
<4376>
should be offered
<4374> (5681)
for
<5228>
every
<1538>
one
<1520>
of them
<846>_.
And
<1161>
when
<5613>
the seven
<2033>
days
<2250>
were almost
<3195> (5707)
ended
<4931> (5745)_,
the Jews
<2453>
which were of
<575>
Asia
<773>_,
when they saw
<2300> (5666)
him
<846>
in
<1722>
the temple
<2411>_,
stirred up
<4797> (5707)
all
<3956>
the people
<3793>_,
and
<2532>
laid
<1911> (5627)
hands
<5495>
on
<1909>
him
<846>_,
Crying out
<2896> (5723)_,
Men
<435>
of Israel
<2475>_,
help
<997> (5720)_:
This
<3778>
is
<2076> (5748)
the man
<444>_,
that teacheth
<1321> (5723)
all
<3956>
[men] every where
<3837>
against
<2596>
the people
<2992>_,
and
<2532>
the law
<3551>_,
and
<2532>
this
<5126>
place
<5117>_:
and
<5037>
further
<2089>
brought
<1521> (5627)
Greeks
<1672>
also
<2532>
into
<1519>
the temple
<2411>_,
and
<2532>
hath polluted
<2840> (5758)
this
<5127>
holy
<40>
place
<5117>_.
(For
<1063>
they had
<2258> (5713)
seen before
<4308> (5761)
with
<4862>
him
<846>
in
<1722>
the city
<4172>
Trophimus
<5161>
an Ephesian
<2180>_,
whom
<3739>
they supposed
<3543> (5707)
that
<3754>
Paul
<3972>
had brought
<1521> (5627)
into
<1519>
the temple
<2411>.)
And
<5037>
all
<3650>
the city
<4172>
was moved
<2795> (5681)_,
and
<2532>
the people
<2992>
ran together
<1096> (5633) <4890>_:
and
<2532>
they took
<1949> (5637)
Paul
<3972>_,
and drew
<1670> (5707)
him
<846>
out of
<1854>
the temple
<2411>_:
and
<2532>
forthwith
<2112>
the doors
<2374>
were shut
<2808> (5681)_.
And
<1161>
as they went about
<2212> (5723)
to kill
<615> (5658)
him
<846>_,
tidings
<5334>
came
<305> (5627)
unto the chief captain
<5506>
of the band
<4686>_,
that
<3754>
all
<3650>
Jerusalem
<2419>
was in an uproar
<4797> (5769)_.
Who
<3739>
immediately
<1824>
took
<3880> (5631)
soldiers
<4757>
and
<2532>
centurions
<1543>_,
and ran down
<2701> (5627)
unto
<1909>
them
<846>_:
and
<1161>
when they saw
<1492> (5631)
the chief captain
<5506>
and
<2532>
the soldiers
<4757>_,
they left
<3973> (5668)
beating
<5180> (5723)
of Paul
<3972>_.
Then
<5119>
the chief captain
<5506>
came near
<1448> (5660)_,
and took
<1949> (5633)
him
<846>_,
and
<2532>
commanded
<2753> (5656)
[him] to be bound with
<1210> (5683)
two
<1417>
chains
<254>_;
and
<2532>
demanded
<4441> (5711)
who
<5101>
he was
<302> <1498> (5751)_,
and
<2532>
what
<5101>
he had
<2076> (5748)
done
<4160> (5761)_.
And
<1161>
some
<243>
cried
<994> (5707)
one thing
<5100>_,
some another
<243>_,
among
<1722>
the multitude
<3793>_:
and
<1161>
when he could
<1410> (5740)
not
<3361>
know
<1097> (5629)
the certainty
<804>
for
<1223>
the tumult
<2351>_,
he commanded
<2753> (5656)
him
<846>
to be carried
<71> (5745)
into
<1519>
the castle
<3925>_.
And
<1161>
when
<3753>
he came
<1096> (5633)
upon
<1909>
the stairs
<304>_,
so it was
<4819> (5627)_,
that he was borne
<941> (5745)
of
<5259>
the soldiers
<4757>
for
<1223>
the violence
<970>
of the people
<3793>_.
For
<1063>
the multitude
<4128>
of the people
<2992>
followed after
<190> (5707)_,
crying
<2896> (5723)_,
Away
<142> (5720)
with him
<846>_.
And
<5037>
as Paul
<3972>
was to be
<3195> (5723)
led
<1521> (5745)
into
<1519>
the castle
<3925>_,
he said
<3004> (5719)
unto the chief captain
<5506>_,
May
<1487> <1832> (5748)
I
<3427>
speak
<2036> (5629) <5100>
unto
<4314>
thee
<4571>_?

<1161>
Who
<3588>
said
<5346> (5713)_,
Canst thou speak
<1097> (5719)
Greek
<1676>_?
Art
<1488> (5748)
not
<3756>
thou
<4771> <686>
that Egyptian
<124>_,
which before
<4253>
these
<5130>
days
<2250>
madest an uproar
<387> (5660)_,
and
<2532>
leddest out
<1806> (5631)
into
<1519>
the wilderness
<2048>
four thousand
<5070>
men
<435>
that were murderers
<4607>_?
But
<1161>
Paul
<3972>
said
<2036> (5627)_,
I
<1473>
am
<1510> (5748) <3303>
a man
<444>
[which am] a Jew
<2453>
of Tarsus
<5018>_,
[a city] in Cilicia
<2791>_,
a citizen
<4177>
of no
<3756>
mean
<767>
city
<4172>_:
and
<1161>_,
I beseech
<1189> (5736)
thee
<4675>_,
suffer
<2010> (5657)
me
<3427>
to speak
<2980> (5658)
unto
<4314>
the people
<2992>_.
And
<1161>
when he had given
<2010> (0)
him
<846>
licence
<2010> (5660)_,
Paul
<3972>
stood
<2476> (5761)
on
<1909>
the stairs
<304>_,
and beckoned
<2678> (5656)
with the hand
<5495>
unto the people
<2992>_.
And
<1161>
when there was made
<1096> (5637)
a great
<4183>
silence
<4602>_,
he spake
<4377> (5656)
unto [them] in the Hebrew
<1446>
tongue
<1258>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
Men
<435>_,
brethren
<80>_,
and
<2532>
fathers
<3962>_,
hear ye
<191> (5657)
my
<3450>
defence
<627>
[which I make] now
<3568>
unto
<4314>
you
<5209>_.
(And
<1161>
when they heard
<191> (5660)
that
<3754>
he spake
<4377> (5707)
in the Hebrew
<1446>
tongue
<1258>
to them
<846>_,
they kept
<3930> (5627)
the more
<3123>
silence
<2271>_:
and
<2532>
he saith
<5346> (5748),)
I
<1473>
am
<1510> (5748)
verily
<3303>
a man
<435>
[which am] a Jew
<2453>_,
born
<1080> (5772)
in
<1722>
Tarsus
<5019>_,
[a city] in Cilicia
<2791>_,
yet
<1161>
brought up
<397> (5772)
in
<1722>
this
<5026>
city
<4172>
at
<3844>
the feet
<4228>
of Gamaliel
<1059>_,
[and] taught
<3811> (5772)
according
<2596>
to the perfect manner
<195>
of the law
<3551>
of the fathers
<3971>_,
and was
<5225> (5723)
zealous
<2207>
toward God
<2316>_,
as
<2531>
ye
<5210>
all
<3956>
are
<2075> (5748)
this day
<4594>_.
And I
<3739>
persecuted
<1377> (5656)
this
<5026>
way
<3598>
unto
<891>
the death
<2288>_,
binding
<1195> (5723)
and
<2532>
delivering
<3860> (5723)
into
<1519>
prisons
<5438>
both
<5037>
men
<435>
and
<2532>
women
<1135>_.
As
<5613>
also
<2532>
the high priest
<749>
doth bear
<3140> (0)
me
<3427>
witness
<3140> (5719)_,
and
<2532>
all
<3956>
the estate of the elders
<4244>_:
from
<3844>
whom
<3739>
also
<2532>
I received
<1209> (5666)
letters
<1992>
unto
<4314>
the brethren
<80>_,
and
<2532>
went
<4198> (5711)
to
<1519>
Damascus
<1154>_,
to bring
<71> (5694)
them which were
<5607> (5752)
there
<1566>
bound
<1210> (5772)
unto
<1519>
Jerusalem
<2419>_,
for to
<2443>
be punished
<5097> (5686)_.
And
<1161>
it came to pass
<1096> (5633)_,
that, as I made
<4198> (0)
my
<3427>
journey
<4198> (5740)_,
and
<2532>
was come nigh
<1448> (5723)
unto Damascus
<1154>
about
<4012>
noon
<3314>_,
suddenly
<1810>
there shone
<4015> (0)
from
<1537>
heaven
<3772>
a great
<2425>
light
<5457>
round
<4015> (5658)
about
<4012>
me
<1691>_.
And
<5037>
I fell
<4098> (5627)
unto
<1519>
the ground
<1475>_,
and
<2532>
heard
<191> (5656)
a voice
<5456>
saying
<3004> (5723)
unto me
<3427>_,
Saul
<4549>_,
Saul
<4549>_,
why
<5101>
persecutest thou
<1377> (5719)
me
<3165>_?
And
<1161>
I
<1473>
answered
<611> (5662)_,
Who
<5101>
art thou
<1488> (5748)_,
Lord
<2962>_?
And
<5037>
he said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
me
<3165>_,
I
<1473>
am
<1510> (5748)
Jesus
<2424>
of Nazareth
<3480>_,
whom
<3739>
thou
<4771>
persecutest
<1377> (5719)_.
And
<1161>
they that were
<5607> (5752)
with
<4862>
me
<1698>
saw
<2300> (5662)
indeed
<3303>
the light
<5457>_,
and
<2532>
were
<1096> (5633)
afraid
<1719>_;
but
<1161>
they heard
<191> (5656)
not
<3756>
the voice
<5456>
of him that spake
<2980> (5723)
to me
<3427>_.
And
<1161>
I said
<2036> (5627)_,
What
<5101>
shall I do
<4160> (5661)_,
Lord
<2962>_?
And
<1161>
the Lord
<2962>
said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
me
<3165>_,
Arise
<450> (5631)_,
and go
<4198> (5737)
into
<1519>
Damascus
<1154>_;
and there
<2546>
it shall be told
<2980> (5701)
thee
<4671>
of
<4012>
all things
<3956>
which
<3739>
are appointed
<5021> (5769)
for thee
<4671>
to do
<4160> (5658)_.
And
<1161>
when
<5613>
I could
<1689> (0)
not
<3756>
see
<1689> (5707)
for
<575>
the glory
<1391>
of that
<1565>
light
<5457>_,
being led by the hand
<5496> (5746)
of
<5259>
them that were
<4895> (5752)
with me
<3427>_,
I came
<2064> (5627)
into
<1519>
Damascus
<1154>_.
And
<1161>
one
<5100>
Ananias
<367>_,
a devout
<2152>
man
<435>
according
<2596>
to the law
<3551>_,
having a good report
<3140> (5746)
of
<5259>
all
<3956>
the Jews
<2453>
which dwelt
<2730> (5723)
[there],
Came
<2064> (5631)
unto
<4314>
me
<3165>_,
and
<2532>
stood
<2186> (5631)_,
and said
<2036> (5627)
unto me
<3427>_,
Brother
<80>
Saul
<4549>_,
receive thy sight
<308> (5657)_.
And
<2504> (0)
the same
<846>
hour
<5610>
I
<2504>
looked up
<308> (5656)
upon
<1519>
him
<846>_.
And
<1161>
he said
<2036> (5627)_,
The God
<2316>
of our
<2257>
fathers
<3962>
hath chosen
<4400> (5662)
thee
<4571>_,
that thou shouldest know
<1097> (5629)
his
<846>
will
<2307>_,
and
<2532>
see
<1492> (5629)
that Just One
<1342>_,
and
<2532>
shouldest hear
<191> (5658)
the voice
<5456>
of
<1537>
his
<846>
mouth
<4750>_.
For
<3754>
thou shalt be
<2071> (5704)
his
<846>
witness
<3144>
unto
<4314>
all
<3956>
men
<444>
of what
<3739>
thou hast seen
<3708> (5758)
and
<2532>
heard
<191> (5656)_.
And
<2532>
now
<3568>
why
<5101>
tarriest thou
<3195> (5719)_?
arise
<450> (5631)_,
and be baptized
<907> (5669)_,
and
<2532>
wash away
<628> (5669)
thy
<4675>
sins
<266>_,
calling on
<1941> (5671)
the name
<3686>
of the Lord
<2962>_.
And
<1161>
it came to pass
<1096> (5633)_,
that, when I
<3427>
was come again
<5290> (5660)
to
<1519>
Jerusalem
<2419>_,
even
<2532>
while I
<3450>
prayed
<4336> (5740)
in
<1722>
the temple
<2411>_,
I
<3165>
was
<1096> (5635)
in
<1722>
a trance
<1611>_;
And
<2532>
saw
<1492> (5629)
him
<846>
saying
<3004> (5723)
unto me
<3427>_,
Make haste
<4692> (5657)_,
and
<2532>
get thee
<1831> (5628)
quickly
<5034> <1722>
out of
<1537>
Jerusalem
<2419>_:
for
<1360>
they will
<3858> (0)
not
<3756>
receive
<3858> (5699)
thy
<4675>
testimony
<3141>
concerning
<4012>
me
<1700>_.
And I
<2504>
said
<2036> (5627)_,
Lord
<2962>_,
they
<846>
know
<1987> (5736)
that
<3754>
I
<1473>
imprisoned
<2252> (5713) <5439> (5723)
and
<2532>
beat
<1194> (5723)
in every
<2596>
synagogue
<4864>
them that believed
<4100> (5723)
on
<1909>
thee
<4571>_:
And
<2532>
when
<3753>
the blood
<129>
of thy
<4675>
martyr
<3144>
Stephen
<4736>
was shed
<1632> (5712)_,
I
<846>
also
<2532>
was
<2252> (5713)
standing by
<2186> (5761)_,
and
<2532>
consenting
<4909> (5723)
unto his
<846>
death
<336>_,
and
<2532>
kept
<5442> (5723)
the raiment
<2440>
of them that slew
<337> (5723)
him
<846>_.
And
<2532>
he said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
me
<3165>_,
Depart
<4198> (5737)_:
for
<3754>
I
<1473>
will send
<1821> (5692)
thee
<4571>
far hence
<3112>
unto
<1519>
the Gentiles
<1484>_.
And
<1161>
they gave
<191> (0)
him
<846>
audience
<191> (5707)
unto
<891>
this
<5127>
word
<3056>_,
and
<2532>
[then] lifted up
<1869> (5656)
their
<846>
voices
<5456>_,
and said
<3004> (5723)_,
Away with
<142> (5720)
such
<5108>
a [fellow] from
<575>
the earth
<1093>_:
for
<1063>
it is
<2520> (0)
not
<3756>
fit
<2520> (5723)
that he
<846>
should live
<2198> (5721)_.
And
<1161>
as they
<846>
cried out
<2905> (5723)_,
and
<2532>
cast off
<4495> (5723)
[their] clothes
<2440>_,
and
<2532>
threw
<906> (5723)
dust
<2868>
into
<1519>
the air
<109>_,
The chief captain
<5506>
commanded
<2753> (5656)
him
<846>
to be brought
<71> (5745)
into
<1519>
the castle
<3925>_,
and bade
<2036> (5631)
that he
<846>
should be examined
<426> (5745)
by scourging
<3148>_;
that
<2443>
he might know
<1921> (5632)
wherefore
<1223> <3739> <156>
they cried
<2019> (0)
so
<3779>
against
<2019> (5707)
him
<846>_.
And
<1161>
as
<5613>
they bound
<4385> (5656) (5625) <4385> (5656)
him
<846>
with thongs
<2438>_,
Paul
<3972>
said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
the centurion
<1543>
that stood by
<2476> (5761)_,
Is it lawful
<1487> <1832> (5748)
for you
<5213>
to scourge
<3147> (5721)
a man
<444>
that is a Roman
<4514>_,
and
<2532>
uncondemned
<178>_?
When
<1161>
the centurion
<1543>
heard
<191> (5660)
[that], he went
<4334> (5631)
and told
<518> (5656)
the chief captain
<5506>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
Take heed
<3708> (5720)
what
<5101>
thou doest
<3195> (5719) <4160> (5721)_:
for
<1063>
this
<3778>
man
<444>
is
<2076> (5748)
a Roman
<4514>_.
Then
<1161>
the chief captain
<5506>
came
<4334> (5631)_,
and said
<2036> (5627)
unto him
<846>_,
Tell
<3004> (5720)
me
<3427>_,

<1487>
art
<1488> (5748)
thou
<4771>
a Roman
<4514>_?

<1161>
He said
<5346> (5713)_,
Yea
<3483>_.
And
<5037>
the chief captain
<5506>
answered
<611> (5662)_,
With a great
<4183>
sum
<2774>
obtained
<2932> (5662)
I
<1473>
this
<5026>
freedom
<4174>_.
And
<1161>
Paul
<3972>
said
<5346> (5713)_,
But
<1161>
I
<1473> <2532>
was [free] born
<1080> (5769)_.
Then
<3767>
straightway
<2112>
they departed
<868> (5627)
from
<575>
him
<846>
which
<3588>
should
<3195> (5723)
have examined
<426> (5721)
him
<846>_:
and
<1161>
the chief captain
<5506>
also
<2532>
was afraid
<5399> (5675)_,
after he knew
<1921> (5631)
that
<3754>
he was
<2076> (5748)
a Roman
<4514>_,
and
<2532>
because
<3754>
he had
<2258> (5713)
bound
<1210> (5761)
him
<846>_.
{examined him: or, tortured him}
<1161>@ On the morrow
<1887>_,
because he would
<1014> (5740)
have known
<1097> (5629)
the certainty
<804>
wherefore
<5101>
he was accused
<2723> (5743)
of
<3844>
the Jews
<2453>_,
he loosed
<3089> (5656)
him
<846>
from
<575>
[his] bands
<1199>_,
and
<2532>
commanded
<2753> (5656)
the chief priests
<749>
and
<2532>
all
<3650>
their
<846>
council
<4892>
to appear
<2064> (5629)_,
and
<2532>
brought
<2609> (0)
Paul
<3972>
down
<2609> (5631)_,
and set him
<2476> (5656)
before
<1519>
them
<846>_.
And
<1161>
Paul
<3972>_,
earnestly beholding
<816> (5660)
the council
<4892>_,
said
<2036> (5627)_,
Men
<435>
[and] brethren
<80>_,
I
<1473>
have lived
<4176> (5769)
in all
<3956>
good
<18>
conscience
<4893>
before God
<2316>
until
<891>
this
<5026>
day
<2250>_.
And
<1161>
the high priest
<749>
Ananias
<367>
commanded
<2004> (5656)
them that stood by
<3936> (5761)
him
<846>
to smite
<5180> (5721)
him
<846>
on the mouth
<4750>_.
Then
<5119>
said
<2036> (5627)
Paul
<3972>
unto
<4314>
him
<846>_,
God
<2316>
shall
<3195> (5719)
smite
<5180> (5721)
thee
<4571>_,
[thou] whited
<2867> (5772)
wall
<5109>_:
for
<2532>
sittest
<2521> (5736)
thou
<4771>
to judge
<2919> (5723)
me
<3165>
after
<2596>
the law
<3551>_,
and
<2532>
commandest
<2753> (5719)
me
<3165>
to be smitten
<5180> (5745)
contrary to the law
<3891> (5723)_?
And
<1161>
they that stood by
<3936> (5761)
said
<2036> (5627)_,
Revilest thou
<3058> (5719)
God's
<2316>
high priest
<749>_?
Then
<5037>
said
<5346> (5713)
Paul
<3972>_,
I wist
<1492> (5715)
not
<3756>_,
brethren
<80>_,
that
<3754>
he was
<2076> (5748)
the high priest
<749>_:
for
<1063>
it is written
<1125> (5769)_,
Thou shalt
<2046> (0)
not
<3756>
speak
<2046> (5692)
evil
<2560>
of the ruler
<758>
of thy
<4675>
people
<2992>_.
But
<1161>
when Paul
<3972>
perceived
<1097> (5631)
that
<3754>
the one
<1520>
part
<3313>
were
<2076> (5748)
Sadducees
<4523>_,
and
<1161>
the other
<2087>
Pharisees
<5330>_,
he cried out
<2896> (5656)
in
<1722>
the council
<4892>_,
Men
<435>
[and] brethren
<80>_,
I
<1473>
am
<1510> (5748)
a Pharisee
<5330>_,
the son
<5207>
of a Pharisee
<5330>_:
of
<4012>
the hope
<1680>
and
<2532>
resurrection
<386>
of the dead
<3498>
I
<1473>
am called in question
<2919> (5743)_.
And
<1161>
when he
<846>
had
<2980> (0)
so
<5124>
said
<2980> (5660)_,
there arose
<1096> (5633)
a dissension
<4714>
between the Pharisees
<5330>
and
<2532>
the Sadducees
<4523>_:
and
<2532>
the multitude
<4128>
was divided
<4977> (5681)_.
For
<1063> <3303>
the Sadducees
<4523>
say
<3004> (5719)
that there is
<1511> (5750)
no
<3361>
resurrection
<386>_,
neither
<3366>
angel
<32>_,
nor
<3383>
spirit
<4151>_:
but
<1161>
the Pharisees
<5330>
confess
<3670> (5719)
both
<297>_.
And
<1161>
there arose
<1096> (5633)
a great
<3173>
cry
<2906>_:
and
<2532>
the scribes
<1122>
[that were] of the Pharisees
<5330>_'
part
<3313>
arose
<450> (5631)_,
and strove
<1264> (5711)_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
We find
<2147> (5719)
no
<3762>
evil
<2556>
in
<1722>
this
<5129>
man
<444>_:
but
<1161>
if
<1487>
a spirit
<4151>
or
<2228>
an angel
<32>
hath spoken
<2980> (5656)
to him
<846>_,
let us
<2313> (0)
not
<3361>
fight
<2313> (5725)
against God.
And
<1161>
when there arose
<1096> (5637)
a great
<4183>
dissension
<4714>_,
the chief captain
<5506>_,
fearing
<2125> (5685)
lest
<3361>
Paul
<3972>
should have been pulled in pieces
<1288> (5686)
of
<5259>
them
<846>_,
commanded
<2753> (5656)
the soldiers
<4753>
to go down
<2597> (5631)_,
and to take
<726> (0)
him
<846>
by force
<726> (5658)
from
<1537>
among
<3319>
them
<846>_,
and
<5037>
to bring
<71> (5721)
[him] into
<1519>
the castle
<3925>_.
And
<1161>
the night
<3571>
following
<1966> (5752)
the Lord
<2962>
stood by
<2186> (5631)
him
<846>_,
and said
<2036> (5627)_,
Be of good cheer
<2293> (5720)_,
Paul
<3972>_:
for
<1063>
as
<5613>
thou hast testified
<1263> (5662)
of
<4012>
me
<1700>
in
<1519>
Jerusalem
<2419>_,
so
<3779>
must
<1163> (5748)
thou
<4571>
bear witness
<3140> (5658)
also
<2532>
at
<1519>
Rome
<4516>_.
And
<1161>
when it was
<1096> (5637)
day
<2250>_,
certain
<5100>
of the Jews
<2453>
banded together
<4160> (5660) <4963>_,
and bound
<332> (0)
themselves
<1438>
under a curse
<332> (5656)_,
saying
<3004> (5723)
that they would
<5315> (0)
neither
<3383>
eat
<5315> (5629)
nor
<3383>
drink
<4095> (5629)
till
<2193> <3757>
they had killed
<615> (5725)
Paul
<3972>_.
{under a curse: or, with an oath of execration}
And
<1161>
they were
<2258> (5713)
more than
<4119>
forty
<5062>
which
<3588>
had made
<4160> (5761)
this
<5026>
conspiracy
<4945>_.
And they
<3748>
came to
<4334> (5631)
the chief priests
<749>
and
<2532>
elders
<4245>_,
and said
<2036> (5627)_,
We have bound
<332> (5656)
ourselves
<1438>
under a great curse
<331>_,
that we will eat
<1089> (5664)
nothing
<3367>
until
<2193> <3739>
we have slain
<615> (5725)
Paul
<3972>_.
Now
<3568>
therefore
<3767>
ye
<5210>
with
<4862>
the council
<4892>
signify
<1718> (5657)
to the chief captain
<5506>
that
<3704>
he bring
<2609> (0)
him
<846>
down
<2609> (5632)
unto
<4314>
you
<5209>
to morrow
<839>_,
as
<5613>
though ye would
<3195> (5723)
enquire
<1231> (5721)
something more perfectly
<197>
concerning
<4012>
him
<846>_:
and
<1161>
we
<2249>_,
or ever
<4253>
he
<846>
come near
<1448> (5658)_,
are
<2070> (5748)
ready
<2092>
to kill
<337> (5629)
him
<846>_.
And
<1161>
when Paul's
<3972>
sister's
<79>
son
<5207>
heard
<191> (5660)
of their lying in wait
<1749>_,
he went
<3854> (5637)
and
<2532>
entered
<1525> (5631)
into
<1519>
the castle
<3925>_,
and told
<518> (5656)
Paul
<3972>_.
Then
<1161>
Paul
<3972>
called
<4341> (5666)
one
<1520>
of the centurions
<1543>
unto [him], and said
<5346> (5713)_,
Bring
<520> (5628)
this
<5126>
young man
<3494>
unto
<4314>
the chief captain
<5506>_:
for
<1063>
he hath
<2192> (5719)
a certain thing
<5100>
to tell
<518> (5658)
him
<846>_.
So
<3767> <3303>
he took
<3880> (5631)
him
<846>_,
and brought
<71> (5627)
[him] to
<4314>
the chief captain
<5506>_,
and
<2532>
said
<5346> (5748)_,
Paul
<3972>
the prisoner
<1198>
called
<4341> (5666)
me
<3165>
unto [him], and prayed me
<2065> (5656)
to bring
<71> (5629)
this
<5126>
young man
<3494>
unto
<4314>
thee
<4571>_,
who hath
<2192> (5723)
something
<5100>
to say
<2980> (5658)
unto thee
<4671>_.
Then
<1161>
the chief captain
<5506>
took
<1949> (5637)
him
<846>
by the hand
<5495>_,
and
<2532>
went [with him] aside
<402> (5660)
privately
<2596> <2398>_,
and asked
<4441> (5711)
[him], What
<5101>
is
<2076> (5748)
that
<3739>
thou hast
<2192> (5719)
to tell
<518> (5658)
me
<3427>_?
And
<1161>
he said
<2036> (5627)_,

<3754>
The Jews
<2453>
have agreed
<4934> (5639)
to desire
<2065> (5658)
thee
<4571>
that
<3704>
thou wouldest bring down
<2609> (5632)
Paul
<3972>
to morrow
<839>
into
<1519>
the council
<4892>_,
as
<5613>
though they would
<3195> (5723)
enquire
<4441> (5738)
somewhat
<5100>
of
<4012>
him
<846>
more perfectly
<197>_.
But
<3767>
do
<3982> (0)
not
<3361>
thou
<4771>
yield
<3982> (5686)
unto them
<846>_:
for
<1063>
there lie in wait for
<1748> (5719)
him
<846>
of
<1537>
them
<846>
more than
<4119>
forty
<5062>
men
<435>_,
which
<3748>
have bound
<332> (0)
themselves
<1438>
with an oath
<332> (5656)_,
that they will
<5315> (0)
neither
<3383>
eat
<5315> (5629)
nor
<3383>
drink
<4095> (5629)
till
<2193> <3739>
they have killed
<337> (5661)
him
<846>_:
and
<2532>
now
<3568>
are they
<1526> (5748)
ready
<2092>_,
looking for
<4327> (5740)
a promise
<1860>
from
<575>
thee
<4675>_.
So
<3303> <3767>
the chief captain
<5506>
[then] let
<630> (0)
the young man
<3494>
depart
<630> (5656)_,
and charged
<3853> (5660)
[him, See thou] tell
<1583> (5658)
no man
<3367>
that
<3754>
thou hast shewed
<1718> (5656)
these things
<5023>
to
<4314>
me
<3165>_.
And
<2532>
he called unto
<4341> (5666)
[him]
<5100>
two
<1417>
centurions
<1543>_,
saying
<2036> (5627)_,
Make ready
<2090> (5657)
two hundred
<1250>
soldiers
<4757>
to
<3704>
go
<4198> (5680)
to
<2193>
Caesarea
<2542>_,
and
<2532>
horsemen
<2460>
threescore and ten
<1440>_,
and
<2532>
spearmen
<1187>
two hundred
<1250>_,
at
<575>
the third
<5154>
hour
<5610>
of the night
<3571>_;
And
<5037>
provide
<3936> (5658)
[them] beasts
<2934>_,
that
<2443>
they may set
<1913> (0)
Paul
<3972>
on
<1913> (5660)_,
and bring [him] safe
<1295> (5661)
unto
<4314>
Felix
<5344>
the governor
<2232>_.
And he wrote
<1125> (5660)
a letter
<1992>
after
<4023> (5723)
this
<5126>
manner
<5179>_:
Claudius
<2804>
Lysias
<3079>
unto the most excellent
<2903>
governor
<2232>
Felix
<5344>
[sendeth] greeting
<5463> (5721)_.
This
<5126>
man
<435>
was taken
<4815> (5685)
of
<5259>
the Jews
<2453>_,
and
<2532>
should
<3195> (5723)
have been killed
<337> (5745)
of
<5259>
them
<846>_:
then came I
<2186> (5631)
with
<4862>
an army
<4753>_,
and rescued
<1807> (5639)
him
<846>_,
having understood
<3129> (5631)
that
<3754>
he was
<2076> (5748)
a Roman
<4514>_.
And
<1161>
when
<1014> (0)
I would
<1014> (5740)
have known
<1097> (5629)
the cause
<156>
wherefore
<1223> <3739>
they accused
<1458> (5707)
him
<846>_,
I brought
<2609> (0)
him
<846>
forth
<2609> (5627)
into
<1519>
their
<846>
council
<4892>_:
Whom
<3739>
I perceived
<2147> (5627)
to be accused
<1458> (5746)
of
<4012>
questions
<2213>
of their
<846>
law
<3551>_,
but
<1161>
to have
<2192> (5723)
nothing
<3367>
laid to his charge
<1462>
worthy
<514>
of death
<2288>
or
<2228>
of bonds
<1199>_.
And
<1161>
when it was told
<3377> (5685)
me
<3427>
how that
<5259>
the Jews
<2453>
laid wait
<1917> <3195> (5721) <1510> (5705)
for
<1519>
the man
<435>_,
I sent
<3992> (5656)
straightway
<1824>
to
<4314>
thee
<4571>_,
and gave commandment
<3853> (5660)
to his accusers
<2725>
also
<2532>
to say
<3004> (5721)
before
<1909>
thee
<4675>
what [they had] against
<4314>
him
<846>_.
Farewell
<4517> (5770)_.
