GNT

1 ἦσαν δὲ ἐν ἀντιοχείᾳ κατὰ τὴν οὗσαν ἐκκλησίαν προφῆται καὶ διδάσκαλοι ὅ τε βαρναβᾶς καὶ συμεὼν ὁ καλούμενος νίγερ, καὶ λούκιος ὁ κυρηναῖος, μαναήν τε ἡρῴδου τοῦ τετραάρχου σύντροφος καὶ σαῦλος.

2 λειτουργούντων δὲ αὐτῶν τῶ κυρίῳ καὶ νηστευόντων εἶπεν τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον, ἀφορίσατε δή μοι τὸν βαρναβᾶν καὶ σαῦλον εἰς τὸ ἔργον ὃ προσκέκλημαι αὐτούς.

3 τότε νηστεύσαντες καὶ προσευξάμενοι καὶ ἐπιθέντες τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῖς ἀπέλυσαν.

4 αὐτοὶ μὲν οὗν ἐκπεμφθέντες ὑπὸ τοῦ ἁγίου πνεύματος κατῆλθον εἰς σελεύκειαν, ἐκεῖθέν τε ἀπέπλευσαν εἰς κύπρον,

5 καὶ γενόμενοι ἐν σαλαμῖνι κατήγγελλον τὸν λόγον τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς τῶν ἰουδαίων· εἶχον δὲ καὶ ἰωάννην ὑπηρέτην.

6 διελθόντες δὲ ὅλην τὴν νῆσον ἄχρι πάφου εὖρον ἄνδρα τινὰ μάγον ψευδοπροφήτην ἰουδαῖον ᾧ ὄνομα βαριησοῦ,

7 ὃς ἦν σὺν τῶ ἀνθυπάτῳ σεργίῳ παύλῳ, ἀνδρὶ συνετῶ. οὖτος προσκαλεσάμενος βαρναβᾶν καὶ σαῦλον ἐπεζήτησεν ἀκοῦσαι τὸν λόγον τοῦ θεοῦ·

8 ἀνθίστατο δὲ αὐτοῖς ἐλύμας ὁ μάγος, οὕτως γὰρ μεθερμηνεύεται τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ, ζητῶν διαστρέψαι τὸν ἀνθύπατον ἀπὸ τῆς πίστεως.

9 σαῦλος δέ, ὁ καὶ παῦλος, πλησθεὶς πνεύματος ἁγίου ἀτενίσας εἰς αὐτὸν

10 εἶπεν, ὦ πλήρης παντὸς δόλου καὶ πάσης ῥᾳδιουργίας, υἱὲ διαβόλου, ἐχθρὲ πάσης δικαιοσύνης, οὐ παύσῃ διαστρέφων τὰς ὁδοὺς [τοῦ] κυρίου τὰς εὐθείας;

11 καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ χεὶρ κυρίου ἐπὶ σέ, καὶ ἔσῃ τυφλὸς μὴ βλέπων τὸν ἥλιον ἄχρι καιροῦ. παραχρῆμά τε ἔπεσεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν ἀχλὺς καὶ σκότος, καὶ περιάγων ἐζήτει χειραγωγούς.

12 τότε ἰδὼν ὁ ἀνθύπατος τὸ γεγονὸς ἐπίστευσεν ἐκπλησσόμενος ἐπὶ τῇ διδαχῇ τοῦ κυρίου.

13 ἀναχθέντες δὲ ἀπὸ τῆς πάφου οἱ περὶ παῦλον ἦλθον εἰς πέργην τῆς παμφυλίας· ἰωάννης δὲ ἀποχωρήσας ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν ὑπέστρεψεν εἰς ἱεροσόλυμα.

14 αὐτοὶ δὲ διελθόντες ἀπὸ τῆς πέργης παρεγένοντο εἰς ἀντιόχειαν τὴν πισιδίαν, καὶ [εἰς]ελθόντες εἰς τὴν συναγωγὴν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῶν σαββάτων ἐκάθισαν.

15 μετὰ δὲ τὴν ἀνάγνωσιν τοῦ νόμου καὶ τῶν προφητῶν ἀπέστειλαν οἱ ἀρχισυνάγωγοι πρὸς αὐτοὺς λέγοντες, ἄνδρες ἀδελφοί, εἴ τίς ἐστιν ἐν ὑμῖν λόγος παρακλήσεως πρὸς τὸν λαόν, λέγετε.

16 ἀναστὰς δὲ παῦλος καὶ κατασείσας τῇ χειρὶ εἶπεν· ἄνδρες ἰσραηλῖται καὶ οἱ φοβούμενοι τὸν θεόν, ἀκούσατε.

17 ὁ θεὸς τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου ἰσραὴλ ἐξελέξατο τοὺς πατέρας ἡμῶν, καὶ τὸν λαὸν ὕψωσεν ἐν τῇ παροικίᾳ ἐν γῇ αἰγύπτου, καὶ μετὰ βραχίονος ὑψηλοῦ ἐξήγαγεν αὐτοὺς ἐξ αὐτῆς,

18 καὶ ὡς τεσσερακονταετῆ χρόνον ἐτροποφόρησεν αὐτοὺς ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ,

19 καὶ καθελὼν ἔθνη ἑπτὰ ἐν γῇ χανάαν κατεκληρονόμησεν τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν

20 ὡς ἔτεσιν τετρακοσίοις καὶ πεντήκοντα. καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἔδωκεν κριτὰς ἕως σαμουὴλ [τοῦ] προφήτου.

21 κἀκεῖθεν ᾐτήσαντο βασιλέα, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ὁ θεὸς τὸν σαοὺλ υἱὸν κίς, ἄνδρα ἐκ φυλῆς βενιαμίν, ἔτη τεσσεράκοντα.

22 καὶ μεταστήσας αὐτὸν ἤγειρεν τὸν δαυὶδ αὐτοῖς εἰς βασιλέα, ᾧ καὶ εἶπεν μαρτυρήσας, εὖρον δαυὶδ τὸν τοῦ ἰεσσαί, ἄνδρα κατὰ τὴν καρδίαν μου, ὃς ποιήσει πάντα τὰ θελήματά μου.

23 τούτου ὁ θεὸς ἀπὸ τοῦ σπέρματος κατ᾽ ἐπαγγελίαν ἤγαγεν τῶ ἰσραὴλ σωτῆρα ἰησοῦν,

24 προκηρύξαντος ἰωάννου πρὸ προσώπου τῆς εἰσόδου αὐτοῦ βάπτισμα μετανοίας παντὶ τῶ λαῶ ἰσραήλ.

25 ὡς δὲ ἐπλήρου ἰωάννης τὸν δρόμον, ἔλεγεν, τί ἐμὲ ὑπονοεῖτε εἶναι; οὐκ εἰμὶ ἐγώ· ἀλλ᾽ ἰδοὺ ἔρχεται μετ᾽ ἐμὲ οὖ οὐκ εἰμὶ ἄξιος τὸ ὑπόδημα τῶν ποδῶν λῦσαι.

26 ἄνδρες ἀδελφοί, υἱοὶ γένους ἀβραὰμ καὶ οἱ ἐν ὑμῖν φοβούμενοι τὸν θεόν, ἡμῖν ὁ λόγος τῆς σωτηρίας ταύτης ἐξαπεστάλη.

27 οἱ γὰρ κατοικοῦντες ἐν ἰερουσαλὴμ καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες αὐτῶν τοῦτον ἀγνοήσαντες καὶ τὰς φωνὰς τῶν προφητῶν τὰς κατὰ πᾶν σάββατον ἀναγινωσκομένας κρίναντες ἐπλήρωσαν,

28 καὶ μηδεμίαν αἰτίαν θανάτου εὑρόντες ᾐτήσαντο πιλᾶτον ἀναιρεθῆναι αὐτόν·

29 ὡς δὲ ἐτέλεσαν πάντα τὰ περὶ αὐτοῦ γεγραμμένα, καθελόντες ἀπὸ τοῦ ξύλου ἔθηκαν εἰς μνημεῖον.

30 ὁ δὲ θεὸς ἤγειρεν αὐτὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν·

31 ὃς ὤφθη ἐπὶ ἡμέρας πλείους τοῖς συναναβᾶσιν αὐτῶ ἀπὸ τῆς γαλιλαίας εἰς ἰερουσαλήμ, οἵτινες [νῦν] εἰσιν μάρτυρες αὐτοῦ πρὸς τὸν λαόν.

32 καὶ ἡμεῖς ὑμᾶς εὐαγγελιζόμεθα τὴν πρὸς τοὺς πατέρας ἐπαγγελίαν γενομένην,

33 ὅτι ταύτην ὁ θεὸς ἐκπεπλήρωκεν τοῖς τέκνοις [αὐτῶν] ἡμῖν ἀναστήσας ἰησοῦν, ὡς καὶ ἐν τῶ ψαλμῶ γέγραπται τῶ δευτέρῳ, υἱός μου εἶ σύ, ἐγὼ σήμερον γεγέννηκά σε.

34 ὅτι δὲ ἀνέστησεν αὐτὸν ἐκ νεκρῶν μηκέτι μέλλοντα ὑποστρέφειν εἰς διαφθοράν, οὕτως εἴρηκεν ὅτι δώσω ὑμῖν τὰ ὅσια δαυὶδ τὰ πιστά.

35 διότι καὶ ἐν ἑτέρῳ λέγει, οὐ δώσεις τὸν ὅσιόν σου ἰδεῖν διαφθοράν.

36 δαυὶδ μὲν γὰρ ἰδίᾳ γενεᾷ ὑπηρετήσας τῇ τοῦ θεοῦ βουλῇ ἐκοιμήθη καὶ προσετέθη πρὸς τοὺς πατέρας αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶδεν διαφθοράν,

37 ὃν δὲ ὁ θεὸς ἤγειρεν οὐκ εἶδεν διαφθοράν.

38 γνωστὸν οὗν ἔστω ὑμῖν, ἄνδρες ἀδελφοί, ὅτι διὰ τούτου ὑμῖν ἄφεσις ἁμαρτιῶν καταγγέλλεται [, καὶ] ἀπὸ πάντων ὧν οὐκ ἠδυνήθητε ἐν νόμῳ μωϊσέως δικαιωθῆναι

39 ἐν τούτῳ πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων δικαιοῦται.

40 βλέπετε οὗν μὴ ἐπέλθῃ τὸ εἰρημένον ἐν τοῖς προφήταις,

41 ἴδετε, οἱ καταφρονηταί, καὶ θαυμάσατε καὶ ἀφανίσθητε, ὅτι ἔργον ἐργάζομαι ἐγὼ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ὑμῶν, ἔργον ὃ οὐ μὴ πιστεύσητε ἐάν τις ἐκδιηγῆται ὑμῖν.

42 ἐξιόντων δὲ αὐτῶν παρεκάλουν εἰς τὸ μεταξὺ σάββατον λαληθῆναι αὐτοῖς τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα.

43 λυθείσης δὲ τῆς συναγωγῆς ἠκολούθησαν πολλοὶ τῶν ἰουδαίων καὶ τῶν σεβομένων προσηλύτων τῶ παύλῳ καὶ τῶ βαρναβᾷ, οἵτινες προσλαλοῦντες αὐτοῖς ἔπειθον αὐτοὺς προσμένειν τῇ χάριτι τοῦ θεοῦ.

44 τῶ δὲ ἐρχομένῳ σαββάτῳ σχεδὸν πᾶσα ἡ πόλις συνήχθη ἀκοῦσαι τὸν λόγον τοῦ κυρίου.

45 ἰδόντες δὲ οἱ ἰουδαῖοι τοὺς ὄχλους ἐπλήσθησαν ζήλου καὶ ἀντέλεγον τοῖς ὑπὸ παύλου λαλουμένοις βλασφημοῦντες.

46 παρρησιασάμενοί τε ὁ παῦλος καὶ ὁ βαρναβᾶς εἶπαν, ὑμῖν ἦν ἀναγκαῖον πρῶτον λαληθῆναι τὸν λόγον τοῦ θεοῦ· ἐπειδὴ ἀπωθεῖσθε αὐτὸν καὶ οὐκ ἀξίους κρίνετε ἑαυτοὺς τῆς αἰωνίου ζωῆς, ἰδοὺ στρεφόμεθα εἰς τὰ ἔθνη.

47 οὕτως γὰρ ἐντέταλται ἡμῖν ὁ κύριος, τέθεικά σε εἰς φῶς ἐθνῶν τοῦ εἶναί σε εἰς σωτηρίαν ἕως ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς.

48 ἀκούοντα δὲ τὰ ἔθνη ἔχαιρον καὶ ἐδόξαζον τὸν λόγον τοῦ κυρίου, καὶ ἐπίστευσαν ὅσοι ἦσαν τεταγμένοι εἰς ζωὴν αἰώνιον·

49 διεφέρετο δὲ ὁ λόγος τοῦ κυρίου δι᾽ ὅλης τῆς χώρας.

50 οἱ δὲ ἰουδαῖοι παρώτρυναν τὰς σεβομένας γυναῖκας τὰς εὐσχήμονας καὶ τοὺς πρώτους τῆς πόλεως καὶ ἐπήγειραν διωγμὸν ἐπὶ τὸν παῦλον καὶ βαρναβᾶν, καὶ ἐξέβαλον αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων αὐτῶν.

51 οἱ δὲ ἐκτιναξάμενοι τὸν κονιορτὸν τῶν ποδῶν ἐπ᾽ αὐτοὺς ἦλθον εἰς ἰκόνιον,

52 οἵ τε μαθηταὶ ἐπληροῦντο χαρᾶς καὶ πνεύματος ἁγίου.

KJV

1  Now¹¹⁶¹ there were²²⁵⁸ in²⁵⁹⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ church¹⁵⁷⁷ that was⁵⁶⁰⁷ at¹⁷²² Antioch⁴⁹⁰ certain⁵¹⁰⁰ prophets⁴³⁹⁶ and²⁵³² teachers;¹³²⁰ as^{5037 3739} Barnabas,⁹²¹ and²⁵³² Simeon⁴⁸²⁶ that was called²⁵⁶⁴ Niger,³⁵²⁶ and²⁵³² Lucius³⁰⁶⁶ of Cyrene,²⁹⁵⁶ and⁵⁰³⁷ Manaen,³¹²⁷ which had been brought up with⁴⁹³⁹ Herod²²⁶⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ tetrarch,⁵⁰⁷⁶ and²⁵³² Saul.⁴⁵⁶⁹

2  As¹¹⁶¹ they⁸⁴⁶ ministered³⁰⁰⁸ to the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord,²⁹⁶² and²⁵³² fasted,³⁵²² the³⁵⁸⁸ Holy⁴⁰ Ghost⁴¹⁵¹ said,²⁰³⁶ Separate^{873 1211} me^{3427 5037} Barnabas⁹²¹ and²⁵³² Saul⁴⁵⁶⁹ for¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ work²⁰⁴¹ whereunto³⁷³⁹ I have called⁴³⁴¹ them.⁸⁴⁶

3  And when⁵¹¹⁹ they had fasted³⁵²² and²⁵³² prayed,⁴³³⁶ and²⁵³² laid²⁰⁰⁷ their hands⁵⁴⁹⁵ on them,⁸⁴⁶ they sent them away.⁶³⁰

4  So³⁷⁶⁷ they,³⁷⁷⁸ being³³⁰³ sent forth¹⁵⁹⁹ by⁵²⁵⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ Holy⁴⁰ Ghost,⁴¹⁵¹ departed²⁷¹⁸ unto¹⁵¹⁹ Seleucia;⁴⁵⁸¹ and⁵⁰³⁷ from thence¹⁵⁶⁴ they sailed⁶³⁶ to¹⁵¹⁹ Cyprus.²⁹⁵⁴

5  And²⁵³² when they were¹⁰⁹⁶ at¹⁷²² Salamis,⁴⁵²⁹ they preached²⁶⁰⁵ the³⁵⁸⁸ word³⁰⁵⁶ of God²³¹⁶ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ synagogues⁴⁸⁶⁴ of the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews:²⁴⁵³ and¹¹⁶¹ they had²¹⁹² also²⁵³² John²⁴⁹¹ to their minister.⁵²⁵⁷

6  And¹¹⁶¹ when they had gone through¹³³⁰ the³⁵⁸⁸ isle³⁵²⁰ unto⁸⁹¹ Paphos,³⁹⁷⁴ they found²¹⁴⁷ a certain⁵¹⁰⁰ sorcerer,³⁰⁹⁷ a false prophet,⁵⁵⁷⁸ a Jew,²⁴⁵³ whose³⁷³⁹ name³⁶⁸⁶ was Barjesus:⁹¹⁹

7  Which³⁷³⁹ was²²⁵⁸ with⁴⁸⁶² the³⁵⁸⁸ deputy of the country,⁴⁴⁶ Sergius⁴⁵⁸⁸ Paulus,³⁹⁷² a prudent⁴⁹⁰⁸ man;⁴³⁵ who³⁷⁷⁸ called for⁴³⁴¹ Barnabas⁹²¹ and²⁵³² Saul,⁴⁵⁶⁹ and desired¹⁹³⁴ to hear¹⁹¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ word³⁰⁵⁶ of God.²³¹⁶

8  But¹¹⁶¹ Elymas¹⁶⁸¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ sorcerer³⁰⁹⁷ (for¹⁰⁶³ so³⁷⁷⁹ is his name by interpretation)^{3177 846 3686} withstood⁴³⁶ them,⁸⁴⁶ seeking²²¹² to turn away¹²⁹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ deputy⁴⁴⁶ from⁵⁷⁵ the³⁵⁸⁸ faith.⁴¹⁰²

9  Then¹¹⁶¹ Saul,⁴⁵⁶⁹ (who³⁵⁸⁸ also²⁵³² is called Paul,)³⁹⁷² filled⁴¹³⁰ with the Holy⁴⁰ Ghost,^{4151 2532} set his eyes⁸¹⁶ on¹⁵¹⁹ him,⁸⁴⁶

10  And said,²⁰³⁶ O⁵⁵⁹⁹ full⁴¹³⁴ of all³⁹⁵⁶ subtlety¹³⁸⁸ and²⁵³² all³⁹⁵⁶ mischief,⁴⁴⁶⁸ thou child⁵²⁰⁷ of the devil,¹²²⁸ thou enemy²¹⁹⁰ of all³⁹⁵⁶ righteousness,¹³⁴³ wilt thou not³⁷⁵⁶ cease³⁹⁷³ to pervert¹²⁹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ right²¹¹⁷ ways³⁵⁹⁸ of the Lord?²⁹⁶²

11  And²⁵³² now,³⁵⁶⁸ behold,²⁴⁰⁰ the hand⁵⁴⁹⁵ of the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord²⁹⁶² is upon¹⁹⁰⁹ thee,⁴⁵⁷¹ and²⁵³² thou shalt be²⁰⁷¹ blind,⁵¹⁸⁵ not³³⁶¹ seeing⁹⁹¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ sun²²⁴⁶ for⁸⁹¹ a season.²⁵⁴⁰ And¹¹⁶¹ immediately³⁹¹⁶ there fell¹⁹⁶⁸ on¹⁹⁰⁹ him⁸⁴⁶ a mist⁸⁸⁷ and²⁵³² a darkness;⁴⁶⁵⁵ and²⁵³² he went about⁴⁰¹³ seeking²²¹² some to lead him by the hand.⁵⁴⁹⁷

12  Then⁵¹¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ deputy,⁴⁴⁶ when he saw¹⁴⁹² what was done,¹⁰⁹⁶ believed,⁴¹⁰⁰ being astonished¹⁶⁰⁵ at¹⁹⁰⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ doctrine¹³²² of the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord.²⁹⁶²

13  Now¹¹⁶¹ when Paul³⁹⁷² and his company⁴⁰¹² loosed³²¹ from⁵⁷⁵ Paphos,³⁹⁷⁴ they came²⁰⁶⁴ to¹⁵¹⁹ Perga⁴⁰¹¹ in Pamphylia:³⁸²⁸ and¹¹⁶¹ John²⁴⁹¹ departing⁶⁷² from⁵⁷⁵ them⁸⁴⁶ returned⁵²⁹⁰ to¹⁵¹⁹ Jerusalem.²⁴¹⁴

14  But¹¹⁶¹ when they⁸⁴⁶ departed¹³³⁰ from⁵⁷⁵ Perga,⁴⁰¹¹ they came³⁸⁵⁴ to¹⁵¹⁹ Antioch⁴⁹⁰ in Pisidia,⁴⁰⁹⁹ and²⁵³² went¹⁵²⁵ into¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ synagogue⁴⁸⁶⁴ on the³⁵⁸⁸ sabbath⁴⁵²¹ day,²²⁵⁰ and sat down.²⁵²³

15  And¹¹⁶¹ after³³²⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ reading³²⁰ of the³⁵⁸⁸ law³⁵⁵¹ and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ prophets⁴³⁹⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ rulers of the synagogue⁷⁵² sent⁶⁴⁹ unto⁴³¹⁴ them,⁸⁴⁶ saying,³⁰⁰⁴ Ye men⁴³⁵ and brethren,⁸⁰ if¹⁴⁸⁷ ye have^{2076 1722 5213} any word³⁰⁵⁶ of exhortation³⁸⁷⁴ for⁴³¹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ people,²⁹⁹² say on.³⁰⁰⁴

16  Then¹¹⁶¹ Paul³⁹⁷² stood up,⁴⁵⁰ and²⁵³² beckoning²⁶⁷⁸ with his hand⁵⁴⁹⁵ said,²⁰³⁶ Men⁴³⁵ of Israel,²⁴⁷⁵ and²⁵³² ye that fear⁵³⁹⁹ God,²³¹⁶ give audience.¹⁹¹

17  The³⁵⁸⁸ God²³¹⁶ of this⁵¹²⁷ people²⁹⁹² of Israel²⁴⁷⁴ chose¹⁵⁸⁶ our²²⁵⁷ fathers,³⁹⁶² and²⁵³² exalted⁵³¹² the³⁵⁸⁸ people²⁹⁹² when¹⁷²² they dwelt as strangers³⁹⁴⁰ in¹⁷²² the land¹⁰⁹³ of Egypt,¹²⁵ and²⁵³² with³³²⁶ a high⁵³⁰⁸ arm¹⁰²³ brought¹⁸⁰⁶ he them⁸⁴⁶ out of¹⁵³⁷ it.⁸⁴⁶

18  And²⁵³² about⁵⁶¹³ the time⁵⁵⁵⁰ of forty years⁵⁰⁶³ suffered he their manners^{5159 846} in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ wilderness.²⁰⁴⁸

19  And²⁵³² when he had destroyed²⁵⁰⁷ seven²⁰³³ nations¹⁴⁸⁴ in¹⁷²² the land¹⁰⁹³ of Canaan,⁵⁴⁷⁷ he divided their land to them by lot.^{2624 846 1093 846}

20  And²⁵³² after³³²⁶ that⁵⁰²³ he gave¹³²⁵ unto them judges²⁹²³ about the space of⁵⁶¹³ four hundred⁵⁰⁷¹ and²⁵³² fifty⁴⁰⁰⁴ years,²⁰⁹⁴ until²¹⁹³ Samuel⁴⁵⁴⁵ the³⁵⁸⁸ prophet.⁴³⁹⁶

21  And afterward²⁵⁴⁷ they desired¹⁵⁴ a king:⁹³⁵ and²⁵³² God²³¹⁶ gave¹³²⁵ unto them⁸⁴⁶ Saul⁴⁵⁴⁹ the son⁵²⁰⁷ of Kish,²⁷⁹⁷ a man⁴³⁵ of¹⁵³⁷ the tribe⁵⁴⁴³ of Benjamin,⁹⁵⁸ by the space of forty⁵⁰⁶² years.²⁰⁹⁴

22  And²⁵³² when he had removed³¹⁷⁹ him,⁸⁴⁶ he raised up¹⁴⁵³ unto them⁸⁴⁶ David¹¹³⁸ to be their king;^{1519 935} to whom³⁷³⁹ also²⁵³² he gave testimony,³¹⁴⁰ and said,²⁰³⁶ I have found²¹⁴⁷ David¹¹³⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ son of Jesse,²⁴²¹ a man⁴³⁵ after²⁵⁹⁶ mine own³⁴⁵⁰ heart,²⁵⁸⁸ which³⁷³⁹ shall fulfil⁴¹⁶⁰ all³⁹⁵⁶ my³⁴⁵⁰ will.²³⁰⁷

23  Of⁵⁷⁵ this man's⁵¹²⁷ seed⁴⁶⁹⁰ hath God²³¹⁶ according²⁵⁹⁶ to his promise¹⁸⁶⁰ raised¹⁴⁵³ unto Israel²⁴⁷⁴ a Savior,⁴⁹⁹⁰ Jesus:²⁴²⁴

24  When John²⁴⁹¹ had first preached⁴²⁹⁶ before⁴²⁵³ his⁸⁴⁶ coming^{1529 4383} the baptism⁹⁰⁸ of repentance³³⁴¹ to all³⁹⁵⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ people²⁹⁹² of Israel.²⁴⁷⁴

25  And¹¹⁶¹ as⁵⁶¹³ John²⁴⁹¹ fulfilled⁴¹³⁷ his course,¹⁴⁰⁸ he said,³⁰⁰⁴ Whom⁵¹⁰¹ think⁵²⁸² ye that I³¹⁶⁵ am?¹⁵¹¹ I¹⁴⁷³ am¹⁵¹⁰ not³⁷⁵⁶ he. But,²³⁵ behold,²⁴⁰⁰ there cometh²⁰⁶⁴ one after³³²⁶ me,¹⁶⁹¹ whose³⁷³⁹ shoes⁵²⁶⁶ of his feet⁴²²⁸ I am¹⁵¹⁰ not³⁷⁵⁶ worthy⁵¹⁴ to loose.³⁰⁸⁹

26  Men⁴³⁵ and brethren,⁸⁰ children⁵²⁰⁷ of the stock¹⁰⁸⁵ of Abraham,¹¹ and²⁵³² whosoever among¹⁷²² you⁵²¹³ feareth⁵³⁹⁹ God,²³¹⁶ to you⁵²¹³ is the³⁵⁸⁸ word³⁰⁵⁶ of this⁵⁰²⁶ salvation⁴⁹⁹¹ sent.⁶⁴⁹

27  For¹⁰⁶³ they that dwell²⁷³⁰ at¹⁷²² Jerusalem,²⁴¹⁹ and²⁵³² their⁸⁴⁶ rulers,⁷⁵⁸ because they knew him not,^{50 5126} nor²⁵³² yet the³⁵⁸⁸ voices⁵⁴⁵⁶ of the³⁵⁸⁸ prophets⁴³⁹⁶ which are read³¹⁴ every^{2596 3956} sabbath day,⁴⁵²¹ they have fulfilled⁴¹³⁷ them in condemning²⁹¹⁹ him.

28  And²⁵³² though they found²¹⁴⁷ no³³⁶⁷ cause¹⁵⁶ of death²²⁸⁸ in him, yet desired¹⁵⁴ they Pilate⁴⁰⁹¹ that he⁸⁴⁶ should be slain.³³⁷

29  And¹¹⁶¹ when⁵⁶¹³ they had fulfilled⁵⁰⁵⁵ all⁵³⁷ that was written¹¹²⁵ of⁴⁰¹² him,⁸⁴⁶ they took him down²⁵⁰⁷ from⁵⁷⁵ the³⁵⁸⁸ tree,³⁵⁸⁶ and laid⁵⁰⁸⁷ him in¹⁵¹⁹ a sepulcher.³⁴¹⁹

30  But¹¹⁶¹ God²³¹⁶ raised¹⁴⁵³ him⁸⁴⁶ from¹⁵³⁷ the dead:³⁴⁹⁸

31  And he³⁷³⁹ was seen³⁷⁰⁰ many⁴¹¹⁹ days²²⁵⁰ of them which came up with⁴⁸⁷² him⁸⁴⁶ from⁵⁷⁵ Galilee¹⁰⁵⁶ to¹⁵¹⁹ Jerusalem,²⁴¹⁹ who³⁷⁴⁸ are¹⁵²⁶ his⁸⁴⁶ witnesses³¹⁴⁴ unto⁴³¹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ people.²⁹⁹²

32  And²⁵³² we²²⁴⁹ declare unto you glad tidings,^{2097 5209} how that the³⁵⁸⁸ promise¹⁸⁶⁰ which was made¹⁰⁹⁶ unto⁴³¹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ fathers,³⁹⁶²

33  ³⁷⁵⁴ God²³¹⁶ hath fulfilled¹⁶⁰³ the same⁵⁰²⁶ unto us²²⁵⁴ their⁸⁴⁶ children,⁵⁰⁴³ in that he hath raised up Jesus again;^{450 2424} as⁵⁶¹³ it is also²⁵³² written¹¹²⁵ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ second¹²⁰⁸ psalm,⁵⁵⁶⁸ Thou⁴⁷⁷¹ art¹⁴⁸⁸ my³⁴⁵⁰ Son,⁵²⁰⁷ this day⁴⁵⁹⁴ have I¹⁴⁷³ begotten¹⁰⁸⁰ thee.⁴⁵⁷¹

34  And¹¹⁶¹ as concerning that³⁷⁵⁴ he raised him up^{450 846} from¹⁵³⁷ the dead,³⁴⁹⁸ now no more³³⁷¹ to³¹⁹⁵ return⁵²⁹⁰ to¹⁵¹⁹ corruption,¹³¹² he said²⁰⁴⁶ on this wise,³⁷⁷⁹ I will give¹³²⁵ you⁵²¹³ the³⁵⁸⁸ sure⁴¹⁰³ mercies³⁷⁴¹ of David.¹¹³⁸

35  Wherefore¹³⁵² he saith³⁰⁰⁴ also²⁵³² in¹⁷²² another²⁰⁸⁷ psalm, Thou shalt not³⁷⁵⁶ suffer¹³²⁵ thine⁴⁶⁷⁵ Holy One³⁷⁴¹ to see¹⁴⁹² corruption.¹³¹²

36  For¹⁰⁶³ David,¹¹³⁸ after he³³⁰³ had served⁵²⁵⁶ his own²³⁹⁸ generation¹⁰⁷⁴ by the³⁵⁸⁸ will¹⁰¹² of God,²³¹⁶ fell on sleep,²⁸³⁷ and²⁵³² was laid⁴³⁶⁹ unto⁴³¹⁴ his⁸⁴⁸ fathers,³⁹⁶² and²⁵³² saw¹⁴⁹² corruption:¹³¹²

37  But¹¹⁶¹ he, whom³⁷³⁹ God²³¹⁶ raised again,¹⁴⁵³ saw¹⁴⁹² no³⁷⁵⁶ corruption.¹³¹²

38  Be²⁰⁷⁷ it known¹¹¹⁰ unto you⁵²¹³ therefore,³⁷⁶⁷ men⁴³⁵ and brethren,⁸⁰ that³⁷⁵⁴ through¹²²³ this man⁵¹²⁷ is preached²⁶⁰⁵ unto you⁵²¹³ the forgiveness⁸⁵⁹ of sins:²⁶⁶

39  And²⁵³² by¹⁷²² him⁵¹²⁹ all³⁹⁵⁶ that believe⁴¹⁰⁰ are justified¹³⁴⁴ from⁵⁷⁵ all things,³⁹⁵⁶ from which³⁷³⁹ ye could¹⁴¹⁰ not³⁷⁵⁶ be justified¹³⁴⁴ by¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ law³⁵⁵¹ of Moses.³⁴⁷⁵

40  Beware⁹⁹¹ therefore,³⁷⁶⁷ lest³³⁶¹ that come¹⁹⁰⁴ upon¹⁹⁰⁹ you,⁵²⁰⁹ which is spoken of²⁰⁴⁶ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ prophets;⁴³⁹⁶

41  Behold,¹⁴⁹² ye despisers,²⁷⁰⁷ and²⁵³² wonder,²²⁹⁶ and²⁵³² perish:⁸⁵³ for³⁷⁵⁴ I¹⁴⁷³ work²⁰³⁸ a work²⁰⁴¹ in¹⁷²² your⁵²¹⁶ days,²²⁵⁰ a work²⁰⁴¹ which³⁷³⁹ ye shall in no wise³³⁶⁴ believe,⁴¹⁰⁰ though¹⁴³⁷ a man⁵¹⁰⁰ declare¹⁵⁵⁵ it unto you.⁵²¹³

42  And¹¹⁶¹ when the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews²⁴⁵³ were gone¹⁸²⁶ out of¹⁵³⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ synagogue,⁴⁸⁶⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ Gentiles¹⁴⁸⁴ besought³⁸⁷⁰ that these⁵⁰²³ words⁴⁴⁸⁷ might be preached²⁹⁸⁰ to them⁸⁴⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ next³³⁴² sabbath.⁴⁵²¹

43  Now¹¹⁶¹ when the³⁵⁸⁸ congregation⁴⁸⁶⁴ was broken up,³⁰⁸⁹ many⁴¹⁸³ of the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews²⁴⁵³ and²⁵³² religious⁴⁵⁷⁶ proselytes⁴³³⁹ followed¹⁹⁰ Paul³⁹⁷² and²⁵³² Barnabas:⁹²¹ who,³⁷⁴⁸ speaking to⁴³⁵⁴ them,⁸⁴⁶ persuaded³⁹⁸² them⁸⁴⁶ to continue¹⁹⁶¹ in the³⁵⁸⁸ grace⁵⁴⁸⁵ of God.²³¹⁶

44  And¹¹⁶¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ next²⁰⁶⁴ sabbath day⁴⁵²¹ came almost the whole city together^{4863 4975 3588 3956 4172} to hear¹⁹¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ word³⁰⁵⁶ of God.²³¹⁶

45  But¹¹⁶¹ when the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews²⁴⁵³ saw¹⁴⁹² the³⁵⁸⁸ multitudes,³⁷⁹³ they were filled⁴¹³⁰ with envy,²²⁰⁵ and²⁵³² spake against⁴⁸³ those things which were spoken³⁰⁰⁴ by⁵²⁵⁹ Paul,³⁹⁷² contradicting⁴⁸³ and²⁵³² blaspheming.⁹⁸⁷

46  Then¹¹⁶¹ Paul³⁹⁷² and²⁵³² Barnabas⁹²¹ waxed bold,³⁹⁵⁵ and said,²⁰³⁶ It was²²⁵⁸ necessary³¹⁶ that the³⁵⁸⁸ word³⁰⁵⁶ of God²³¹⁶ should first⁴⁴¹² have been spoken²⁹⁸⁰ to you:⁵²¹³ but¹¹⁶¹ seeing¹⁸⁹⁴ ye put it from you,^{683 846} and²⁵³² judge²⁹¹⁹ yourselves¹⁴³⁸ unworthy^{3756 514} of everlasting¹⁶⁶ life,²²²² lo,²⁴⁰⁰ we turn⁴⁷⁶² to¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ Gentiles.¹⁴⁸⁴

47  For¹⁰⁶³ so³⁷⁷⁹ hath the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord²⁹⁶² commanded¹⁷⁸¹ us,²²⁵⁴ saying, I have set⁵⁰⁸⁷ thee⁴⁵⁷¹ to be a light^{1519 5457} of the Gentiles,¹⁴⁸⁴ that thou⁴⁵⁷¹ shouldest be¹⁵¹¹ for¹⁵¹⁹ salvation⁴⁹⁹¹ unto²¹⁹³ the ends²⁰⁷⁸ of the³⁵⁸⁸ earth.¹⁰⁹³

1 Erant autem in ecclesia quæ erat Antiochiæ, prophetæ et doctores, in quibus Barnabas, et Simon qui vocabatur Niger, et Lucius Cyrenensis, et Manahen, qui erat Herodis Tetrarchæ collactaneus, et Saulus.

2 Ministrantibus autem illis Domino, et jejunantibus, dixit illis Spiritus Sanctus: Segregate mihi Saulum et Barnabam in opus ad quod assumpsi eos.

3 Tunc jejunantes et orantes, imponentesque eis manus, dimiserunt illos.

4 Et ipsi quidem missi a Spiritu Sancto abierunt Seleuciam: et inde navigaverunt Cyprum.

5 Et cum venissent Salaminam, prædicabant verbum Dei in synagogis Judæorum. Habebant autem et Joannem in ministerio.

6 Et cum perambulassent universam insulam usque Paphum, invenerunt quemdam virum magum pseudoprophetam, Judæum, cui nomen erat Barjesu,

7 qui erat cum proconsule Sergio Paulo viro prudente. Hic, accersitis Barnaba et Saulo, desiderabat audire verbum Dei.

8 Resistebat autem illis Elymas magus (sic enim interpretatur nomen ejus), quærens avertere proconsulem a fide.

9 Saulus autem, qui et Paulus, repletus Spiritu Sancto, intuens in eum,

10 dixit: O plene omni dolo et omni fallacia, fili diaboli, inimice omnis justitiæ, non desinis subvertere vias Domini rectas.

11 Et nunc ecce manus Domini super te, et eris cæcus, non videns solem usque ad tempus. Et confestim cecidit in eum caligo et tenebræ: et circuiens quærebat qui ei manum daret.

12 Tunc proconsul cum vidisset factum, credidit admirans super doctrina Domini.

13 Et cum a Papho navigassent Paulus et qui cum eo erant, venerunt Pergen Pamphyliæ. Joannes autem discedens ab eis, reversus est Jerosolymam.

14 Illi vero pertranseuntes Pergen, venerunt Antiochiam Pisidiæ: et ingressi synagogam die sabbatorum, sederunt.

15 Post lectionem autem legis et prophetarum, miserunt principes synagogæ ad eos, dicentes: Viri fratres, si quis est in vobis sermo exhortationis ad plebem, dicite.

16 Surgens autem Paulus, et manu silentium indicens, ait: Viri Israëlitæ, et qui timetis Deum, audite:

17 Deus plebis Israël elegit patres nostros, et plebem exaltavit cum essent incolæ in terra Ægypti, et in brachio excelso eduxit eos ex ea,

18 et per quadraginta annorum tempus mores eorum sustinuit in deserto.

19 Et destruens gentes septem in terra Chanaan, sorte distribuit eis terram eorum,

20 quasi post quadringentos et quinquaginta annos: et post hæc dedit judices, usque ad Samuel prophetam.

21 Et exinde postulaverunt regem: et dedit illis Deus Saul filium Cis, virum de tribu Benjamin, annis quadraginta:

22 et amoto illo, suscitavit illis David regem: cui testimonium perhibens, dixit: Inveni David filium Jesse, virum secundum cor meum, qui faciet omnes voluntates meas.

23 Hujus Deus ex semine secundum promissionem eduxit Israël salvatorem Jesum,

24 prædicante Joanne ante faciem adventus ejus baptismum pœnitentiæ omni populo Israël.

25 Cum impleret autem Joannes cursum suum, dicebat: Quem me arbitramini esse, non sum ego: sed ecce venit post me, cujus non sum dignus calceamenta pedum solvere.

26 Viri fratres, filii generis Abraham, et qui in vobis timent Deum, vobis verbum salutis hujus missum est.

27 Qui enim habitabant Jerusalem, et principes ejus hunc ignorantes, et voces prophetarum quæ per omne sabbatum leguntur, judicantes impleverunt,

28 et nullam causam mortis invenientes in eo, petierunt a Pilato ut interficerent eum.

29 Cumque consummassent omnia quæ de eo scripta erant, deponentes eum de ligno, posuerunt eum in monumento.

30 Deus vero suscitavit eum a mortuis tertia die: qui visus est per dies multos his

31 qui simul ascenderant cum eo de Galilæa in Jerusalem: qui usque nunc sunt testes ejus ad plebem.

32 Et nos vobis annuntiamus eam, quæ ad patres nostros repromissio facta est:

33 quoniam hanc Deus adimplevit filiis nostris resuscitans Jesum, sicut et in psalmo secundo scriptum est: Filius meus es tu, ego hodie genui te.

34 Quod autem suscitavit eum a mortuis, amplius jam non reversurum in corruptionem, ita dixit: Quia dabo vobis sancta David fidelia.

35 Ideoque et alias dicit: Non dabis sanctum tuum videre corruptionem.

36 David enim in sua generatione cum administrasset, voluntati Dei dormivit: et appositus est ad patres suos, et vidit corruptionem.

37 Quem vero Deus suscitavit a mortuis, non vidit corruptionem.

38 Notum igitur sit vobis, viri fratres, quia per hunc vobis remissio peccatorum annuntiatur, et ab omnibus quibus non potuistis in lege Moysi justificari,

39 in hoc omnis qui credit, justificatur.

40 Videte ergo ne superveniat vobis quod dictum est in prophetis:

41 [Videte contemptores, et admiramini, et disperdimini:
quia opus operor ego in diebus vestris,
opus quod non credetis, si quis enarraverit vobis.]

42 Exeuntibus autem illis rogabant ut sequenti sabbato loquerentur sibi verba hæc.

43 Cumque dimissa esset synagoga, secuti sunt multi Judæorum, et colentium advenarum, Paulum et Barnabam: qui loquentes suadebant eis ut permanerent in gratia Dei.

44 Sequenti vero sabbato pene universa civitas convenit audire verbum Dei.

45 Videntes autem turbas Judæi, repleti sunt zelo, et contradicebant his quæ a Paulo dicebantur, blasphemantes.

46 Tunc constanter Paulus et Barnabas dixerunt: Vobis oportebat primum loqui verbum Dei: sed quoniam repellitis illud, et indignos vos judicatis æternæ vitæ, ecce convertimur ad gentes.

47 Sic enim præcepit nobis Dominus: Posui te in lucem gentium, ut sis in salutem usque ad extremum terræ.

48 Audientes autem gentes, gavisæ sunt, et glorificabant verbum Domini: et crediderunt quotquot erant præordinati ad vitam æternam.

49 Disseminabatur autem verbum Domini per universam regionem.

50 Judæi autem concitaverunt mulieres religiosas et honestas, et primos civitatis, et excitaverunt persecutionem in Paulum et Barnabam: et ejecerunt eos de finibus suis.

51 At illi excusso pulvere pedum in eos, venerunt Iconium.

52 Discipuli quoque replebantur gaudio, et Spiritu Sancto.
