1NowG1161 when they had passed throughG1353 AmphipolisG3588G295 andG2532 ApolloniaG624, they cameG2064 toG1519 ThessalonicaG2332, whereG3699 wasG1510 a synagogueG3588G4864 of the JewsG2453: 2AndG1161 PaulG3588G3972, asG2596 his manner wasG1486, went inG1525 untoG4314 themG846, andG2532 threeG5140 sabbath daysG4521 reasonedG1256 with themG846 out ofG575 the scripturesG3588G1124, 3OpeningG1272 andG2532 allegingG3908, thatG3754 ChristG3588G5547 must needsG1163 have sufferedG3958, andG2532 risen againG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498; andG2532 thatG3754 thisG3778 JesusG2424, whomG3739 IG1473 preachG2605 unto youG4771, isG1510 ChristG3588G5547. 4AndG2532 someG5100 ofG1537 themG846 believedG3982, andG2532 consortedG4345 with PaulG3588G3972 andG2532 SilasG3588G4609; andG5037 of the devoutG4576 GreeksG1672 a greatG4183 multitudeG4128, andG5037 of the chiefG4413 womenG1135 notG3756 a fewG3641.
5ButG1161 the JewsG2453 whichG3588 believed notG544, moved with envyG2206, took unto themG4355 certainG5100 lewdG4190 fellowsG435 of the baser sortG3588G60, andG2532 gathered a companyG3792, and set allG2350 the cityG3588G4172 on an uproarG2350, andG5037 assaultedG2186 the houseG3588G3614 of JasonG2394, and soughtG2212 to bringG71 themG846 outG71 toG1519 the peopleG3588G1218. 6AndG1161 when they foundG2147 themG846 notG3361, they drewG4951 JasonG3588G2394 andG2532 certainG5100 brethrenG80 untoG1909 the rulers of the cityG3588G4173, cryingG994, TheseG3778 thatG3754 have turnedG387 the worldG3588G3625 upside downG387 are comeG3918 hitherG1759 alsoG2532; 7WhomG3739 JasonG2394 hath receivedG5264: andG2532 theseG3778 allG3956 doG4238 contraryG561 to the decreesG3588G1378 of CæsarG2541, sayingG3004 that there isG1510 anotherG2087 kingG935, one JesusG2424. 8AndG1161 they troubledG5015 the peopleG3588G3793 andG2532 the rulers of the cityG3588G4173, when they heardG191 these thingsG3778. 9AndG2532 when they had takenG2983 securityG2425 ofG3844 JasonG3588G2394, andG2532 of the otherG3062, they letG630 themG846 goG630.
10AndG1161 the brethrenG3588G80 immediatelyG2112 sent awayG1599 PaulG3588G3972 andG2532 SilasG3588G4609 byG1223 nightG3588G3571 untoG1519 BereaG960: whoG3748 comingG3854 thither wentG549 intoG1519 the synagogueG3588G4864 of the JewsG3588G2453. 11TheseG3778 wereG1510 more nobleG2104 than thoseG3588 inG1722 ThessalonicaG2332, in thatG3748 they receivedG1209 the wordG3588G3056 withG3326 allG3956 readiness of mindG4288, and searchedG350 the scripturesG3588G1124 dailyG2250, whetherG1487 those thingsG3778 wereG2192 soG3779. 12ThereforeG3767 manyG4183 ofG1537 themG846 believedG4100; alsoG2532 of honourableG2158 womenG1135 which wereG3588 GreeksG1674, andG2532 of menG435, notG3756 a fewG3641. 13ButG1161 whenG5613 the JewsG2453 ofG575 ThessalonicaG3588G2332 had knowledgeG1097 thatG3754 the wordG3588G3056 of GodG3588G2316 was preachedG2605 ofG5259 PaulG3588G3972 atG1722 BereaG3588G960, they cameG2064 thither alsoG2546, andG2532 stirred upG4531 the peopleG3588G3793. 14AndG1161 thenG5119 immediatelyG2112 the brethrenG3588G80 sent awayG1821 PaulG3588G3972 to goG4198 as it wereG5613 toG1909 the seaG3588G2281: butG1161 SilasG4609 andG2532 TimothyG3588G5095 abodeG5278 thereG1563 stillG5278. 15AndG1161 theyG3588 that conductedG2525 PaulG3588G3972 broughtG71 himG846 untoG2193 AthensG116: andG2532 receivingG2983 a commandmentG1785 untoG4314 SilasG3588G4609 andG2532 TimothyG5095 forG2443 to comeG2064 toG4314 himG846 withG5613 all speedG5033, they departedG1826.
