14 But they , passing G1330 through from Perga Πέργης Pergēs G4011 , came G2064 to Antioch Ἀντιόχειαν Antiocheian G490 of Pisidia Πισιδίαν, Pisidian G4099 ; and they went into the synagogue συναγωγὴν sunagōgēn G4864 on the sabbath σαββάτων sabbatōn G4521 day ἡμέρᾳ hēmera G2250 , and sat G2523 down ἐκάθισαν.¶ ekathisan G2523 . 15 And after the reading ἀνάγνωσιν anagnōsin G320 of the law νόμου nomou G3551 and the prophets προφητῶν prophētōn G4396 the rulers of the synagogue ἀρχισυνάγωγοι archisunagōgoi G752 sent G649 unto them , saying G3004 , Brethren , if ye have any word λόγος logos G3056 of exhortation παρακλήσεως paraklēseōs G3874 for the people λαόν, laon G2992 , say G3004 on . 16 And Paul Παῦλος Paulos G3972 stood G450 up , and beckoning with the hand χειρὶ cheiri G5495 said G3004 , Men ἄνδρες andres G435 of Israel, and ye that fear φοβούμενοι phoboumenoi G5399 God θεόν, theon G2316 , hearken: 17 The God θεὸς theos G2316 of this people λαοῦ laou G2992 Israel Ἰσραὴλ Israēl G2474 chose our fathers πατέρας pateras G3962 , and exalted ὕψωσεν hupsōsen G5312 the people λαὸν laon G2992 when they sojourned in the land γῇ gēa G1093 of Egypt Αἰγύπτου Aiguptou G125 , and with a high G5308 arm βραχίονος brachionos G1023 led he them forth out of it . 18 And for about the time G5550 of forty τεσσερακονταετῆ tesserakontaetē G5063 years as a nursing-father bare he them in the wilderness ἐρήμῳ, erēmō G2048 . 19 And when he had destroyed seven ἑπτὰ hepta G2033 nations ἔθνη ethnē G1484 in the land γῇ gēa G1093 of Canaan Χανάαν Chanaan G5477 , he gave them their land γῆν gēn G1093 for an inheritance , for about four hundred and fifty years: 21 And afterward they asked ᾐτήσαντο ētēsanto G154 for a king βασιλέα, basilea G935 : and God θεὸς theos G2316 gave G1325 unto them Saul Σαοὺλ Saoul G4549 the son υἱὸν huion G5207 of Kish , a man ἄνδρα andra G435 of the tribe φυλῆς phulēs G5443 of Benjamin Βενιαμίν, Beniamin G958 , for the space of forty τεσσεράκοντα· tesserakonta G5062 years ἔτη etē G2094 . 22 And when he had removed him , he raised G1453 up David Δαυὶδ Dauid G1138 to be their king βασιλέα, basilea G935 ; to whom also G2532 he bare witness μαρτυρήσας· marturēsas G3140 and said G3004 , I have found G2147 David Δαυὶδ Dauid G1138 the son of Jesse Ἰεσσαί, Iessai G2421 , a man ἄνδρα andra G435 after my heart καρδίαν kardian G2588 , who shall do all my will . 23 Of this man’s τούτου toutou G3778 seed σπέρματος spermatos G4690 hath God θεὸς theos G2316 according κατ᾽ kat᾽ G2596 to promise ἐπαγγελίαν epangelian G1860 brought G71 unto Israel Ἰσραὴλ Israēl G2474 a Saviour, Jesus Ἰησοῦν, Iēsoun G2424 ; 24 when John Ἰωάννου Iōannou G2491 had first preached before his coming the baptism βάπτισμα baptisma G908 of repentance μετανοίας metanoias G3341 to all the people λαῷ laō G2992 of Israel Ἰσραήλ. Israēl G2474 . 26 Brethren , children of the stock of Abraham Ἀβραὰμ Abraam G11 , and those among you that fear φοβούμενοι phoboumenoi G5399 God θεόν, theon G2316 , to us is the word G3056 of this salvation σωτηρίας sōtērias G4991 sent forth G1821 . 27 For they that dwell κατοικοῦντες katoikountes G2730 in Jerusalem Ἰερουσαλὴμ Ierousalēm G2419 , and their rulers ἄρχοντες archontes G758 , because they knew him not , nor the voices G5456 of the prophets προφητῶν prophētōn G4396 which are read ἀναγινωσκομένας, anaginōskomenas G314 every sabbath σάββατον sabbaton G4521 , fulfilled them by condemning him . 28 And though they found G2147 no cause αἰτίαν aitian G156 of death θανάτου thanatou G2288 in him , yet asked G154 they of Pilate Πιλᾶτον Pilaton G4091 that he should be slain . 32 And we bring G2097 you good tidings of the promise ἐπαγγελίαν epangelian G1860 made unto the fathers πατέρας pateras G3962 , 34 And as concerning that he raised G450 him up from the dead νεκρῶν nekrōn G3498 , now G1161 no more μηκέτι mēketi G3371 to return ὑποστρέφειν hupostrephein G5290 to corruption, he hath spoken on this wise, I will give δώσω dōsō G1325 you the holy ὅσια hosia G3741 and sure blessings of David Δαυὶδ Dauid G1138 . 36 For David Δαυὶδ Dauid G1138 , after he had in his own ἰδίᾳ idia G2398 generation γενεᾷ genea G1074 served the counsel G1012 of God θεοῦ theou G2316 , fell asleep ἐκοιμήθη ekoimēthē G2837 , and was laid unto his fathers πατέρας pateras G3962 , and saw G3708 corruption: 38 Be ἔστω estō G1510 it known unto you therefore οὖν oun G3767 , brethren , that through this man G435 is G1510 proclaimed καταγγέλλεται· katangelletai G2605 unto you remission of sins ἁμαρτιῶν hamartiōn G266 : 40 Beware G991 therefore οὖν oun G3767 , lest μὴ mē G3361 that come ἐπέλθῃ epelthē G1904 upon you which is spoken in the prophets προφήταις· prophētais G4396 : 41 Behold , ye despisers, and wonder θαυμάσατε thaumasate G2296 , and perish ; For I work ἔργον ergon G2041 a work ἔργον ergon G2041 in your days ἡμέραις hēmerais G2250 , A work G2041 which ye shall in no wise believe πιστεύσητε pisteusēte G4100 , if one τις tis G5100 declare it unto you . 42 And as they went out, they besought that these words might be spoken λαληθῆναι lalēthēnai G2980 to them the next sabbath σάββατον sabbaton G4521 . 43 Now G1161 when the synagogue συναγωγῆς sunagōgēs G4864 broke G3089 up, many πολλοὶ polloi G4183 of the Jews Ἰουδαίων Ioudaiōn G2453 and of the devout proselytes followed ἠκολούθησαν ēkolouthēsan G190 Paul Παύλῳ Paulō G3972 and Barnabas Βαρναβᾷ, Barnaba G921 ; who , speaking to them , urged them to continue in the grace χάριτι chariti G5485 of God θεοῦ. theou G2316 . 44 And the next sabbath σαββάτῳ sabbatō G4521 almost σχεδὸν schedon G4975 the whole city πόλις polis G4172 was gathered G4863 together συνήχθη sunēchthē G4863 to hear ἀκοῦσαι akousai G191 the word λόγον logon G3056 of God . 45 But when the Jews Ἰουδαῖοι Ioudaioi G2453 saw G3708 the multitudes G3793 , they were filled ἐπλήσθησαν eplēsthēsan G4130 with jealousy ζήλου zēlou G2205 , and contradicted the things which were spoken λαλουμένοις laloumenois G2980 by Paul Παύλου Paulou G3972 , and blasphemed G987 . 46 And Paul Παῦλος Paulos G3972 and Barnabas Βαρναβᾶς Barnabas G921 spake out boldly παρρησιασάμενοί parrēsiasamenoi G3955 , and said G3004 , It was G1510 necessary ἀναγκαῖον anagkaion G316 that the word λόγον logon G3056 of God θεοῦ· theou G2316 should first πρῶτον prōton G4413 be G1510 spoken λαληθῆναι lalēthēnai G2980 to you . Seeing G3708 ye thrust it from you , and judge κρίνετε krinete G2919 yourselves unworthy of eternal αἰωνίου aiōniou G166 life ζωῆς, zōēs G2222 , lo , we turn G4762 to the Gentiles ἔθνη. ethnē G1484 . 47 For so G3779 hath the Lord κύριος· kurios G2962 commanded ἐντέταλται entetaltai G1781 us , saying, I have set τέθεικά tetheika G5087 thee for a light φῶς phōs G5457 of the Gentiles ἐθνῶν ethnōn G1484 , That thou shouldest be G1510 for salvation σωτηρίαν sōtērian G4991 unto the uttermost part of the earth γῆς.¶ gēs G1093 . 49 And the word λόγος logos G3056 of the Lord κυρίου kuriou G2962 was spread abroad throughout all the region χώρας. chōras G5561 . 50 But the Jews Ἰουδαῖοι Ioudaioi G2453 urged on the devout women G1135 of honorable estate, and the chief men of the city πόλεως poleōs G4172 , and stirred up a persecution διωγμὸν diōgmon G1375 against Paul Παῦλον Paulon G3972 and Barnabas Βαρναβᾶν Barnaban G921 , and cast G1544 them out of their borders. 52 And the disciples G3101 were filled ἐπληροῦντο eplērounto G4137 with joy χαρᾶς charas G5479 and with the Holy ἁγίου.¶ hagiou G40 Spirit πνεύματος pneumatos G4151 .
