Acts 28:17-29
17AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that afterG3326 threeG5140 daysG2250 PaulG3588G3972 calledG4779 the chiefG4413 of the JewsG3588G2453 togetherG4779: andG1161 whenG3588G1510 they wereG846 come togetherG4905, he saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846, MenG435 and brethrenG80, though IG1473 have committedG4160 nothingG3762 againstG1727 the peopleG3588G2992, orG2228 customsG3588G1485 of our fathersG3588G3971, yet was I deliveredG3860 prisonerG1198 fromG1537 JerusalemG2414 intoG1519 the handsG3588G5495 of the RomansG3588G4514.
18WhoG3748, when they had examinedG350 meG1473, would haveG1014 letG630 me goG630, becauseG1223 there wasG5225 noG3367 causeG156 of deathG2288 inG1722 meG1473.
19ButG1161 when the JewsG2453 spake againstG483 it, I was constrainedG315 to appealG1941 unto CæsarG2541; notG3756 thatG5613 I hadG2192 oughtG5100 to accuseG2723 myG1473 nationG3588G1484 ofG2723.
20ForG1223 thisG3778 causeG3588G156 thereforeG3767 have I calledG3870 for youG4771, to seeG3708 you, andG2532 to speak withG4354 you: because thatG1752 forG1063 the hopeG3588G1680 of IsraelG2474 I am bound withG4029 thisG3778 chainG3588G254.
21AndG1161 they saidG3004 untoG4314 himG846, WeG1473 neitherG3777 receivedG1209 lettersG1121 outG575 of JudæaG3588G2449 concerningG4012 theeG4771, neitherG3777 anyG5100 of the brethrenG3588G80 that cameG3854 shewedG518 orG2228 spakeG2980 anyG5100 harmG4190 ofG4012 theeG4771.
22ButG1161 we desireG515 to hearG191 ofG3844 theeG4771 whatG3739 thou thinkestG5426: forG1063 asG3303 concerningG4012 thisG3778 sectG3588G139, weG1473 knowG1110 thatG3754 every whereG3837 it isG1510 spoken againstG483.
23AndG1161 when they had appointedG5021 himG846 a dayG2250, there cameG2240 manyG4119 toG4314 himG846 intoG1519 his lodgingG3588G3578; to whomG3739 he expoundedG1620 andG5037 testifiedG1263 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316, persuadingG3982 themG846 concerningG4012 JesusG3588G2424, bothG5037 outG575 of the lawG3588G3551 of MosesG3475, andG2532 out of the prophetsG3588G4396, fromG575 morningG4404 tillG2193 eveningG2073.
24AndG2532 someG3303 believedG3982 the thingsG3588 which were spokenG3004, andG1161 someG3588 believed notG569.
25AndG1161 whenG1510 they agreed notG800 amongG4314 themselvesG240, they departedG630, after that PaulG3588G3972 had spokenG3004 oneG1520 wordG4487, WellG2573 spakeG2980 the HolyG40 GhostG3588G4151 byG1223 IsaiahG2268 the prophetG3588G4396 untoG4314 ourG1473 fathersG3588G3962,
26SayingG3004, GoG4198 untoG4314 thisG3778 peopleG3588G2992, andG2532 sayG3004, HearingG189 ye shall hearG191, andG2532 shallG4920 notG3756 understandG4920; andG2532 seeingG991 ye shall seeG991, andG2532 notG3756 perceiveG3708:
27ForG1063 the heartG3588G2588 of thisG3778 peopleG3588G2992 is waxed grossG3975, andG2532 their earsG3588G3775 areG191 dull ofG917 hearingG191, andG2532 theirG846 eyesG3588G3788 have they closedG2576; lestG3379 they should seeG3708 withG3588G3788 their eyesG3588G3788, andG2532 hearG191 withG3588G3775 their earsG3588G3775, andG2532 understandG4920 withG3588G2588 their heartG3588G2588, andG2532 should be convertedG1994, andG2532 I should healG2390 themG846.
28Be itG1510 knownG1110 thereforeG3767 unto youG4771, thatG3754 the salvationG4992 of GodG3588G2316 is sentG649 unto the GentilesG3588G1484, andG2532 that theyG846 will hear itG191.
29AndG2532 when heG846 had saidG3004 these wordsG3778, the JewsG2453 departedG565, and hadG2192 greatG4183 reasoningG4803 amongG1722 themselvesG1438.
