< Acts 13 >
1 Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
ησαν δε εν αντιοχεια κατα την ουσαν εκκλησιαν προφηται και διδασκαλοι ο τε βαρναβας και συμεων ο καλουμενος νιγερ και λουκιος ο κυρηναιος μαναην τε ηρωδου του τετρααρχου συντροφος και σαυλος
2 As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, Separate for me Barnabas and Saul, for the work to which I have called them.
λειτουργουντων δε αυτων τω κυριω και νηστευοντων ειπεν το πνευμα το αγιον αφορισατε δη μοι τον βαρναβαν και σαυλον εις το εργον ο προσκεκλημαι αυτους
3 And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid [their] hands on them, they sent [them] away.
τοτε νηστευσαντες και προσευξαμενοι και επιθεντες τας χειρας αυτοις απελυσαν
4 So they being sent forth by the Holy Spirit, departed to Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
αυτοι μεν ουν εκπεμφθεντες υπο του αγιου πνευματος κατηλθον εις σελευκειαν εκειθεν τε απεπλευσαν εις κυπρον
5 And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had also John for [their] minister.
και γενομενοι εν σαλαμινι κατηγγελλον τον λογον του θεου εν ταις συναγωγαις των ιουδαιων ειχον δε και ιωαννην υπηρετην
6 And when they had gone through the isle to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name [was] Barjesus:
διελθοντες δε ολην την νησον αχρι παφου ευρον ανδρα τινα μαγον ψευδοπροφητην ιουδαιον ω ονομα {VAR1: βαριησους } {VAR2: βαριησου }
7 Who was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.
ος ην συν τω ανθυπατω σεργιω παυλω ανδρι συνετω ουτος προσκαλεσαμενος βαρναβαν και σαυλον επεζητησεν ακουσαι τον λογον του θεου
8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.
ανθιστατο δε αυτοις ελυμας ο μαγος ουτως γαρ μεθερμηνευεται το ονομα αυτου ζητων διαστρεψαι τον ανθυπατον απο της πιστεως
9 Then Saul (who also [is called] Paul) filled with the Holy Spirit, set his eyes on him,
σαυλος δε ο και παυλος πλησθεις πνευματος αγιου ατενισας εις αυτον
10 And said, O full of all subtilty, and all mischief, [thou] child of the devil, [thou] enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
ειπεν ω πληρης παντος δολου και πασης ραδιουργιας υιε διαβολου εχθρε πασης δικαιοσυνης ου παυση διαστρεφων τας οδους {VAR1: του } {VAR2: [του] } κυριου τας ευθειας
11 And now behold, the hand of the Lord [is] upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
και νυν ιδου χειρ κυριου επι σε και εση τυφλος μη βλεπων τον ηλιον αχρι καιρου παραχρημα {VAR1: δε } {VAR2: τε } επεσεν επ αυτον αχλυς και σκοτος και περιαγων εζητει χειραγωγους
12 Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.
τοτε ιδων ο ανθυπατος το γεγονος επιστευσεν εκπλησσομενος επι τη διδαχη του κυριου
13 Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia. And John departing from them, returned to Jerusalem.
αναχθεντες δε απο της παφου οι περι παυλον ηλθον εις περγην της παμφυλιας ιωαννης δε αποχωρησας απ αυτων υπεστρεψεν εις ιεροσολυμα
14 But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath, and sat down.
αυτοι δε διελθοντες απο της περγης παρεγενοντο εις αντιοχειαν την πισιδιαν και {VAR1: ελθοντες } {VAR2: (εισελθοντες) } εις την συναγωγην τη ημερα των σαββατων εκαθισαν
15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Men, brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, speak.
μετα δε την αναγνωσιν του νομου και των προφητων απεστειλαν οι αρχισυναγωγοι προς αυτους λεγοντες ανδρες αδελφοι ει τις εστιν εν υμιν λογος παρακλησεως προς τον λαον λεγετε
16 Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with [his] hand, said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.
αναστας δε παυλος και κατασεισας τη χειρι ειπεν ανδρες ισραηλιται και οι φοβουμενοι τον θεον ακουσατε
17 The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with a high arm he brought them out of it.
ο θεος του λαου τουτου ισραηλ εξελεξατο τους πατερας ημων και τον λαον υψωσεν εν τη παροικια εν γη αιγυπτου και μετα βραχιονος υψηλου εξηγαγεν αυτους εξ αυτης
18 And about the time of forty years he suffered their manners in the wilderness.
και ως τεσσερακονταετη χρονον ετροποφορησεν αυτους εν τη ερημω
19 And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he divided their land to them by lot.
{VAR2: και } καθελων εθνη επτα εν γη χανααν κατεκληρονομησεν την γην αυτων
20 And after that he gave [to them] judges, about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.
ως ετεσιν τετρακοσιοις και πεντηκοντα και μετα ταυτα εδωκεν κριτας εως σαμουηλ {VAR2: [του] } προφητου
21 And afterward they desired a king: and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.
κακειθεν ητησαντο βασιλεα και εδωκεν αυτοις ο θεος τον σαουλ υιον κις ανδρα εκ φυλης βενιαμιν ετη τεσσερακοντα
22 And when he had removed him, he raised up to them David to be their king: to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the [son] of Jesse, a man after my own heart, who shall fulfill all my will.
και μεταστησας αυτον ηγειρεν τον δαυιδ αυτοις εις βασιλεα ω και ειπεν μαρτυρησας ευρον δαυιδ τον του ιεσσαι {VAR1: [ανδρα] } {VAR2: ανδρα } κατα την καρδιαν μου ος ποιησει παντα τα θεληματα μου
23 Of this man's offspring hath God, according to [his] promise, raised up to Israel a Savior, Jesus:
τουτου ο θεος απο του σπερματος κατ επαγγελιαν ηγαγεν τω ισραηλ σωτηρα ιησουν
24 John having first preached, before his coming, the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
προκηρυξαντος ιωαννου προ προσωπου της εισοδου αυτου βαπτισμα μετανοιας παντι τω λαω ισραηλ
25 And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not [he]. But behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of [his] feet I am not worthy to loose.
ως δε επληρου ιωαννης τον δρομον ελεγεν τι εμε υπονοειτε ειναι ουκ ειμι εγω αλλ ιδου ερχεται μετ εμε ου ουκ ειμι αξιος το υποδημα των ποδων λυσαι
26 Men, brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.
ανδρες αδελφοι υιοι γενους αβρααμ και οι εν υμιν φοβουμενοι τον θεον ημιν ο λογος της σωτηριας ταυτης εξαπεσταλη
27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the words of the prophets which are read every sabbath, they have fulfilled [them] in condemning [him].
οι γαρ κατοικουντες εν ιερουσαλημ και οι αρχοντες αυτων τουτον αγνοησαντες και τας φωνας των προφητων τας κατα παν σαββατον αναγινωσκομενας κριναντες επληρωσαν
28 And though they found no cause of death [in him], yet they desired Pilate that he should be put to death.
και μηδεμιαν αιτιαν θανατου ευροντες ητησαντο πιλατον αναιρεθηναι αυτον
29 And when they had fulfilled all that was written concerning him, they took [him] down from the tree, and laid [him] in a sepulcher.
ως δε ετελεσαν παντα τα περι αυτου γεγραμμενα καθελοντες απο του ξυλου εθηκαν εις μνημειον
30 But God raised him from the dead:
ο δε θεος ηγειρεν αυτον εκ νεκρων
31 And he was seen many days by them who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.
ος ωφθη επι ημερας πλειους τοις συναναβασιν αυτω απο της γαλιλαιας εις ιερουσαλημ οιτινες [νυν] εισιν μαρτυρες αυτου προς τον λαον
32 And we declare to you the glad tidings, that the promise which was made to the fathers,
και ημεις υμας ευαγγελιζομεθα την προς τους πατερας επαγγελιαν γενομενην
33 God hath fulfilled the same to us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
οτι ταυτην ο θεος εκπεπληρωκεν τοις τεκνοις {VAR1: ημων } {VAR2: [αυτων] ημιν } αναστησας ιησουν ως και εν τω ψαλμω γεγραπται τω δευτερω υιος μου ει συ εγω σημερον γεγεννηκα σε
34 And as concerning that he raised him from the dead, [now] no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.
οτι δε ανεστησεν αυτον εκ νεκρων μηκετι μελλοντα υποστρεφειν εις διαφθοραν ουτως ειρηκεν οτι δωσω υμιν τα οσια δαυιδ τα πιστα
35 Wherefore he saith also in another [psalm], Thou wilt not suffer thy Holy One to see corruption.
διοτι και εν ετερω λεγει ου δωσεις τον οσιον σου ιδειν διαφθοραν
36 For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell asleep, and was laid to his fathers, and saw corruption:
δαυιδ μεν γαρ ιδια γενεα υπηρετησας τη του θεου βουλη εκοιμηθη και προσετεθη προς τους πατερας αυτου και ειδεν διαφθοραν
37 But he whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
ον δε ο θεος ηγειρεν ουκ ειδεν διαφθοραν
38 Be it known to you therefore, men, brethren, that through this man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins;
γνωστον ουν εστω υμιν ανδρες αδελφοι οτι δια τουτου υμιν αφεσις αμαρτιων καταγγελλεται
39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
{VAR1: και } {VAR2: [και] } απο παντων ων ουκ ηδυνηθητε εν νομω μωυσεως δικαιωθηναι εν τουτω πας ο πιστευων δικαιουται
40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you which is spoken in the prophets;
βλεπετε ουν μη επελθη το ειρημενον εν τοις προφηταις
41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye will in no wise believe, though a man declare it to you.
ιδετε οι καταφρονηται και θαυμασατε και αφανισθητε οτι εργον εργαζομαι εγω εν ταις ημεραις υμων εργον ο ου μη πιστευσητε εαν τις εκδιηγηται υμιν
42 And when the Jews had gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.
εξιοντων δε αυτων παρεκαλουν εις το μεταξυ σαββατον λαληθηναι αυτοις τα ρηματα ταυτα
43 Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
λυθεισης δε της συναγωγης ηκολουθησαν πολλοι των ιουδαιων και των σεβομενων προσηλυτων τω παυλω και τω βαρναβα οιτινες προσλαλουντες αυτοις επειθον αυτους προσμενειν τη χαριτι του θεου
44 And the next sabbath came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.
τω δε ερχομενω σαββατω σχεδον πασα η πολις συνηχθη ακουσαι τον λογον του {VAR1: θεου } {VAR2: κυριου }
45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spoke against those things which were uttered by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.
ιδοντες δε οι ιουδαιοι τους οχλους επλησθησαν ζηλου και αντελεγον τοις υπο παυλου λαλουμενοις βλασφημουντες
46 Then Paul and Barnabas became bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you: but seeing ye reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios )
παρρησιασαμενοι τε ο παυλος και ο βαρναβας ειπαν υμιν ην αναγκαιον πρωτον λαληθηναι τον λογον του θεου επειδη απωθεισθε αυτον και ουκ αξιους κρινετε εαυτους της αιωνιου ζωης ιδου στρεφομεθα εις τα εθνη (aiōnios )
47 For so hath the Lord commanded us, [saying], I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldst be for salvation to the ends of the earth.
ουτως γαρ εντεταλται ημιν ο κυριος τεθεικα σε εις φως εθνων του ειναι σε εις σωτηριαν εως εσχατου της γης
48 And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life, believed. (aiōnios )
ακουοντα δε τα εθνη εχαιρον και εδοξαζον τον λογον του {VAR1: θεου } {VAR2: κυριου } και επιστευσαν οσοι ησαν τεταγμενοι εις ζωην αιωνιον (aiōnios )
49 And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.
διεφερετο δε ο λογος του κυριου δι ολης της χωρας
50 But the Jews stirred up the devout and honorable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their borders.
οι δε ιουδαιοι παρωτρυναν τας σεβομενας γυναικας τας ευσχημονας και τους πρωτους της πολεως και επηγειραν διωγμον επι τον παυλον και βαρναβαν και εξεβαλον αυτους απο των οριων αυτων
51 But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.
οι δε εκτιναξαμενοι τον κονιορτον των ποδων επ αυτους ηλθον εις ικονιον
52 And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
οι τε μαθηται επληρουντο χαρας και πνευματος αγιου
