1 Now G1161 when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia , they came G2064 to Thessalonica Θεσσαλονίκην, Thessalonikēn G2332 , where ὅπου hopou G3699 was G1510 a synagogue συναγωγὴ sunagōgē G4864 of the Jews Ἰουδαίων. Ioudaiōn G2453 : 2 and Paul Παύλῳ Paulō G3972 , as his custom was , went G1525 in unto them , and for three τρία tria G5140 sabbath σάββατα sabbata G4521 days reasoned διελέξατο dielexato G1256 with them from the scriptures G1124 , 3 opening and alleging that it behooved the Christ χριστὸν christon G5547 to suffer παθεῖν pathein G3958 , and to rise G450 again G450 from the dead νεκρῶν nekrōn G3498 ; and that this Jesus Ἰησοῦς Iēsous G2424 , whom , said he , I proclaim G2605 unto you , is G1510 the Christ χριστὸς christos G5547 . 4 And some of them were persuaded G3982 , and consorted with Paul Παύλῳ Paulō G3972 and Silas Σιλᾷ, Sila G4609 ; and of the devout Greeks Ἑλλήνων Hellēnōn G1672 a great πολύ, polu G4183 multitude πλῆθος plēthos G4128 , and of the chief women G1135 not a few ὀλίγαι.¶ oligai G3641 . 5 But the Jews Ἰουδαῖοι Ioudaioi G2453 , being moved with jealousy, took unto them certain τινὰς tinas G5100 vile fellows of the rabble, and gathering a crowd, set the city πόλιν, polin G4172 on an uproar; and assaulting the house οἰκίᾳ oikia G3614 of Jason Ἰάσονος Iasonos G2394 , they sought ἐζήτουν ezētoun G2212 to bring προαγαγεῖν proagagein G4254 them forth to the people . 6 And when they found G2147 them not , they dragged Jason Ἰάσονα Iasona G2394 and certain τινας tinas G5100 brethren before the rulers of the city πολιτάρχας politarchas G4173 , crying βοῶντες boōntes G994 , These that have turned the world οἰκουμένην oikoumenēn G3625 upside down are come hither also G2532 ; 7 whom Jason Ἰάσων· Iasōn G2394 hath received : and these all act contrary to the decrees of Cæsar, saying G3004 that there is G1510 another king βασιλέα basilea G935 , one G3739 Jesus Ἰησοῦν. Iēsoun G2424 . 8 And they troubled G5015 the multitude G3793 and the rulers of the city πολιτάρχας politarchas G4173 , when they heard ἀκούοντας akouontas G191 these things ταῦτα· tauta G3778 . 9 And when they had taken G2983 security from Jason Ἰάσονος Iasonos G2394 and the rest λοιπῶν loipōn G3062 , they let them go ἀπέλυσαν apelusan G630 . 10 And the brethren immediately εὐθέως eutheōs G2112 sent away Paul Παῦλον Paulon G3972 and Silas Σιλᾶν Silan G4609 by night νυκτὸς nuktos G3571 unto Beroea: who when they were come G3854 thither went into the synagogue συναγωγὴν sunagōgēn G4864 of the Jews Ἰουδαίων Ioudaiōn G2453 .
