Acts 17
1 And, travelling through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews;
paulasiilau aamphipalyaapalloniyaanagaraabhyaa. m gatvaa yatra yihuudiiyaanaa. m bhajanabhavanamekam aaste tatra thi. salaniikiinagara upasthitau|
2 and, according to Paul’s custom, he went in unto them, and, for three sabbaths, reasoned with them from the Scriptures, —
tadaa paula. h svaacaaraanusaare. na te. saa. m samiipa. m gatvaa vi"sraamavaaratraye tai. h saarddha. m dharmmapustakiiyakathaayaa vicaara. m k. rtavaan|
3 opening up, and setting forth, that it was needful for, the Christ, to suffer, and to arise from among the dead; and [saying], This, is the Christ, —Jesus, whom, I, am declaring unto you.
phalata. h khrii. s.tena du. hkhabhoga. h karttavya. h "sma"saanadutthaana nca karttavya. m yu. smaaka. m sannidhau yasya yii"so. h prastaava. m karomi sa ii"svare. naabhi. sikta. h sa etaa. h kathaa. h prakaa"sya pramaa. na. m datvaa sthiriik. rtavaan|
4 And, some from among them, were persuaded, and cast in their lot with Paul and Silas; also, of the devout Greeks, a great throng, and, of the chief women, not a few.
tasmaat te. saa. m katipayajanaa anyade"siiyaa bahavo bhaktalokaa bahya. h pradhaananaaryya"sca vi"svasya paulasiilayo. h pa"scaadgaamino jaataa. h|
5 But the Jews, being, jealous, and taking unto themselves certain wicked men, of the rabble, and making a riot, were setting the city in an uproar; and, besieging the house of Jason, were seeking to lead them forth unto the populace, —
kintu vi"svaasahiinaa yihuudiiyalokaa iir. syayaa paripuur. naa. h santo ha. ta. tsya katinayalampa. talokaan sa"ngina. h k. rtvaa janatayaa nagaramadhye mahaakalaha. m k. rtvaa yaasono g. rham aakramya preritaan dh. rtvaa lokanivahasya samiipam aanetu. m ce. s.titavanta. h|
6 and, not finding them, they began dragging Jason and certain brethren unto the city-rulers, shouting—They who have thrown the inhabited earth into confusion, the same, hither also, are come, —
te. saamudde"sam apraapya ca yaasona. m katipayaan bhraat. r.m"sca dh. rtvaa nagaraadhipatiinaa. m nika. tamaaniiya proccai. h kathitavanto ye manu. syaa jagadudvaa. titavantaste. atraapyupasthitaa. h santi,
7 unto whom Jason hath given welcome; and, these all, contrary to the decrees of Caesar, are acting, —saying that there is another king, Jesus.
e. sa yaason aatithya. m k. rtvaa taan g. rhiitavaan| yii"sunaamaka eko raajastiiti kathayantaste kaisarasyaaj naaviruddha. m karmma kurvvati|
8 And they troubled the multitude and the city-rulers, when they heard these things;
te. saa. m kathaamimaa. m "srutvaa lokanivaho nagaraadhipataya"sca samudvignaa abhavan|
9 and, taking security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.
tadaa yaasonastadanye. saa nca dhanada. n.da. m g. rhiitvaa taan parityaktavanta. h|
10 But, the brethren, straightway, during the night, sent away both Paul and Silas unto Beroea, who, indeed, arriving, unto the synagogue of the Jews, went off;
tata. h para. m bhraat. rga. no rajanyaa. m paulasiilau "siighra. m birayaanagara. m pre. sitavaan tau tatropasthaaya yihuudiiyaanaa. m bhajanabhavana. m gatavantau|
11 and, these, were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they welcomed the word with all readiness of mind, daily, searching the Scriptures, —whether these things could be so.
tatrasthaa lokaa. h thi. salaniikiisthalokebhyo mahaatmaana aasan yata ittha. m bhavati na veti j naatu. m dine dine dharmmagranthasyaalocanaa. m k. rtvaa svaira. m kathaam ag. rhlan|
12 Many, therefore, from among them, believed, and, of the Grecian women of the higher class, and of men, not a few.
tasmaad aneke yihuudiiyaa anyade"siiyaanaa. m maanyaa striya. h puru. saa"scaaneke vya"svasan|
13 But, when the Jews from Thessalonica came to know that, in Beroea also, had the word of God been declared by Paul, they came thither also, stirring up and troubling the multitudes.
kintu birayaanagare paulene"svariiyaa kathaa pracaaryyata iti thi. salaniikiisthaa yihuudiiyaa j naatvaa tatsthaanamapyaagatya lokaanaa. m kuprav. rttim ajanayan|
14 Howbeit, then, immediately, the brethren sent away, Paul, to be journeying as far as unto the sea; and both Silas and Timothy stayed behind, there.
ataeva tasmaat sthaanaat samudre. na yaantiiti dar"sayitvaa bhraatara. h k. sipra. m paula. m praahi. nvan kintu siilatiimathiyau tatra sthitavantau|
15 But, they who were conducting Paul, brought him as far as Athens, and, receiving a commandment unto Silas and Timothy, that with, all possible speed, they would come unto him, they departed.
tata. h para. m paulasya maargadar"sakaastam aathiiniinagara upasthaapayan pa"scaad yuvaa. m tuur. nam etat sthaana. m aagami. syatha. h siilatiimathiyau pratiimaam aaj naa. m praapya te pratyaagataa. h|
16 But, while, in Athens, Paul was expecting them, his spirit within him was being urged on, seeing how the city was given to idols.
paula aathiiniinagare taavapek. sya ti. s.than tannagara. m pratimaabhi. h paripuur. na. m d. r.s. tvaa santaptah. rdayo. abhavat|
17 So then, he began reasoning in the synagogue with the Jews, and with them who worshipped; and, in the market-place, every day, with them who happened to be at hand.
tata. h sa bhajanabhavane yaan yihuudiiyaan bhaktalokaa. m"sca ha. t.te ca yaan apa"syat tai. h saha pratidina. m vicaaritavaan|
18 But, certain both of the Epicurean and of the Stoic philosophers, were encountering him; and some were saying—What might this picker-up-of-scraps wish to be saying? And, others—Of foreign demons, he seemeth to be a declarer: because, of Jesus and the Resurrection, he was announcing the joyful tidings.

19 And so, laying hold of him, they brought him up, to the Hill of Mars, saying—Can we get to know what this new teaching is, which, by thee, is being spoken.
te tam areyapaaganaama vicaarasthaanam aaniiya praavocan ida. m yannaviina. m mata. m tva. m praaciika"sa ida. m kiid. r"sa. m etad asmaan "sraavaya;
20 For, certain foreign things, art thou bringing into our hearing: We are minded to get to know, therefore, what these things please to be!
yaamimaam asambhavakathaam asmaaka. m kar. nagocariik. rtavaan asyaa bhaavaartha. h ka iti vaya. m j naatum icchaama. h|
21 Now, all Athenians and the sojourning foreigners, unto nothing else, were devoting their leisure, than to be telling or hearing, something newer.
tadaathiiniinivaasinastannagarapravaasina"sca kevala. m kasyaa"scana naviinakathaayaa. h "srava. nena pracaara. nena ca kaalam ayaapayan|
22 And Paul taking his stand in the midst of the Hill of Mars, said—Ye men of Athens! In every way, how unusually reverent of the demons ye are, I perceive.
paulo. areyapaagasya madhye ti. s.than etaa. m kathaa. m pracaaritavaan, he aathiiniiyalokaa yuuya. m sarvvathaa devapuujaayaam aasaktaa ityaha pratyak. sa. m pa"syaami|
23 For, passing through, and carefully observing your objects of devotion, I found an altar also, in which was inscribed—Unto an Unknown God. What, therefore, not knowing, ye reverence, the same, do, I, declare unto you.
yata. h paryya. tanakaale yu. smaaka. m puujaniiyaani pa"syan ‘avij naate"svaraaya` etallipiyuktaa. m yaj navediimekaa. m d. r.s. tavaan; ato na viditvaa ya. m puujayadhve tasyaiva tatva. m yu. smaan prati pracaarayaami|
24 The God that made the world and all things that are therein, the same, being, Lord, of heaven and earth, not in hand-made shrines, doth dwell,
jagato jagatsthaanaa. m sarvvavastuunaa nca sra. s.taa ya ii"svara. h sa svargap. rthivyorekaadhipati. h san karanirmmitamandire. su na nivasati;
25 nor, by human hands, is waited upon, as though in want of anything, himself, giving unto all life and breath and all things;
sa eva sarvvebhyo jiivana. m praa. naan sarvvasaamagrii"sca pradadaati; ataeva sa kasyaa"scit saamagyraa abhaavaheto rmanu. syaa. naa. m hastai. h sevito bhavatiiti na|
26 he made also, of one, every nation of men to dwell upon all the face of the earth, —marking out fitting opportunities, and the bounds of their dwelling place,
sa bhuuma. n.dale nivaasaartham ekasmaat "so. nitaat sarvvaan manu. syaan s. r.s. tvaa te. saa. m puurvvaniruupitasamaya. m vasatisiimaa nca niracinot;
27 that they might be seeking God—if, after all, indeed, they might feel after him and find him, —although, in truth, he is already not far from any one of us.
tasmaat lokai. h kenaapi prakaare. na m. rgayitvaa parame"svarasya tatva. m praaptu. m tasya gave. sa. na. m kara. niiyam|
28 For, in him, we live and move and are: as, even some of your own poets, have said—For, his offspring also, we are.
kintu so. asmaaka. m kasmaaccidapi duure ti. s.thatiiti nahi, vaya. m tena ni"svasanapra"svasanagamanaagamanapraa. nadhaara. naani kurmma. h, puna"sca yu. smaakameva katipayaa. h kavaya. h kathayanti ‘tasya va. m"saa vaya. m smo hi` iti|
29 Being, then, offspring, of God, we ought not to be supposing that, unto gold or silver or stone, graven by art and device of man, the Divine, is like.
ataeva yadi vayam ii"svarasya va. m"saa bhavaamastarhi manu. syai rvidyayaa kau"salena ca tak. sita. m svar. na. m ruupya. m d. r.sad vaite. saamii"svaratvam asmaabhi rna j naatavya. m|
30 The times of ignorance, therefore, overlooking, God, as things now are, is charging all men everywhere to repent,
te. saa. m puurvviiyalokaanaam aj naanataa. m pratii"svaro yadyapi naavaadhatta tathaapiidaanii. m sarvvatra sarvvaan mana. h parivarttayitum aaj naapayati,
31 inasmuch as he hath appointed a day, in which he is about to be judging the habitable earth in righteousness, by a man whom he hath pointed out, —offering faith unto all, by raising him from among the dead?
yata. h svaniyuktena puru. se. na yadaa sa p. rthiviisthaanaa. m sarvvalokaanaa. m vicaara. m kari. syati taddina. m nyaruupayat; tasya "sma"saanotthaapanena tasmin sarvvebhya. h pramaa. na. m praadaat|
32 Now, when they heard of raising the dead, some, indeed, began to mock, while, others, said—We will hear thee, concerning this, even again.
tadaa "sma"saanaad utthaanasya kathaa. m "srutvaa kecid upaahaman, kecidavadan enaa. m kathaa. m punarapi tvatta. h "sro. syaama. h|
33 Thus, Paul, came forth out of their midst.
tata. h paulaste. saa. m samiipaat prasthitavaan|
34 But, certain persons, joining themselves unto him, believed; among whom were even Dionysius the Mars-hill judge, and a woman by name Damaris, and others with them.
tathaapi kecillokaastena saarddha. m militvaa vya"svasan te. saa. m madhye. areyapaagiiyadiyanusiyo daamaariinaamaa kaacinnaarii kiyanto naraa"scaasan|
