23When they had setG5021 a dayG2250 for 1Paul, people cameG2064 to him at 2his lodgingG3578 in largeG4183 numbersG4183; and he was explainingG1620 to them by solemnlyG1263 3testifyingG1263 about the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 and trying to persuadeG3982 them concerningG4012 JesusG2424, 4from bothG5037 the LawG3551 of MosesG3475 and from the ProphetsG4396, from morningG4404 untilG2193 eveningG2073. 245SomeG3588 were being persuadedG3982 by the thingsG3004 saidG3004 by Paul, but othersG3588 wouldG569 notG569 believeG569. 25And when they disagreedG800G1510 with oneG240 anotherG240, they began leavingG630 after PaulG3972 saidG3004 oneG1520 parting statementG4487: “The HolyG40 SpiritG4151 rightlyG2573 spokeG2980 throughG1223 IsaiahG2268 the prophetG4396 to your fathersG3962, 26sayingG3004, ‘6GoG4198 to thisG3778 peopleG2992 and sayG3004, “78You will keepG189 on hearingG191, and will not understandG4920; And 9you will keepG991 on seeingG991, and will not perceiveG3708;2710For the heartsG2588 of thisG3778 peopleG2992 have becomeG3975 11insensitiveG3975, And with their earsG3775 they 12hardlyG917 hearG191, And they have closedG2576 their eyesG3788; OtherwiseG3379 they might seeG3708 with their eyesG3788, And hearG191 with their earsG3775, And understandG4920 with their heartG2588 and returnG1994, And I would healG2390 them.”’ 28ThereforeG3767, let it be knownG1110 to you that 13thisG3778 salvationG4992 of GodG2316 has been sentG649 14to the GentilesG1484; they will alsoG2532 listenG191.”15
