2 who had a [good] testimony of the brethren in Lystra and Iconium.

who was well spoken of by the in Lystra and Iconium brothers.

3 Him would Paul have go forth with him, and took [him and] circumcised him on account of the Jews who were in those places, for they all knew his father that he was a Greek.

This one wanted Paul with him to go forth, and having taken he circumcised him on account of the Jews those being in the parts those; they knew for all that a Greek (the father *N(k)O*) of him was.

4 And as they passed through the cities they instructed them to observe the decrees determined on by the apostles and elders who were in Jerusalem.

9 And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: There was a certain Macedonian man, standing and beseeching him, and saying, Pass over into Macedonia and help us.

And a vision during the night to Paul appeared: A man of Macedonia certain was already standing (and *no*) beseeching him and saying; Having passed over into Macedonia do help us.

10 And when he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go forth to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to announce to them the glad tidings.

When now the vision he had seen, immediately we sought to go forth to (*k*) Macedonia concluding that he has called us (God *N(K)O*) to evangelise to them.

11 Having sailed therefore away from Troas, we went in a straight course to Samothracia, and on the morrow to Neapolis,

Having sailed (then *N(K)O*) from (*k*) Troas we made a straight course to Samothrace, (and *N(k)O*) the following day to Nea Polis,

12 and thence to Philippi, which is [the] first city of that part of Macedonia, a colony. And we were staying in that city certain days.

(and from there and from there *N(k)O*) to Philippi, which is ([the] leading [city] *N(k)O*) (of the *ko*) district (*NK*) of Macedonia [the] city, [and Roman] colony. We were now in (this *NK(o)*) city staying days some.

When then she was baptized and the house of her, she begged saying; If you have judged me faithful to the Lord to be, having entered into the house of mine (do remain; *N(k)O*) And she persuaded us.

16 And it came to pass as we were going to prayer that a certain female slave, having a spirit of Python, met us, who brought much profit to her masters by prophesying.

It happened now going of us to (the *no*) [place of] prayer, a girl certain having a spirit (Python meeting by *N(k)O*) us, who gain much was bringing the masters of her by fortune-telling.

17 She, having followed Paul and us, cried saying, These men are bondmen of the Most High God, who announce to you [the] way of salvation.

She (having followed *N(k)O*) after Paul and us was crying out saying; These men servants of the God Most High are, who proclaim (to you *N(K)O*) [the] way of salvation.

18 And this she did many days. And Paul, being distressed, turned, and said to the spirit, I enjoin thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And it came out the same hour.

21 and announce customs which it is not lawful for us to receive nor practise, being Romans.

and preach customs that not it is lawful for us to accept nor to practice Romans being.

And rose up together the crowd against them, and the magistrates having torn off of them the garments were commanding to beat with rods;

23 And having laid many stripes upon them they cast [them] into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely;

24 who, having received such a charge, cast them into the inner prison, and secured their feet to the stocks.

37 But Paul said to them, Having beaten us publicly uncondemned, us who are Romans, they have cast us into prison, and now they thrust us out secretly? no, indeed, but let them come themselves and bring us out.

But Paul was saying to them; Having beaten us publicly uncondemned men Romans being, they cast [us] into prison, and now secretly us do they throw out? No indeed! Instead having come themselves us they should bring out.
