Acts 13
1 Now in the assembly that was at Antioch there were some prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
ησαν δε τινεσ 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 τετραρχου συντροφοσ και σαυλοσ
2 As they served the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, “Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, 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 τον σαυλον εισ το εργον ο προσκεκλημαι αυτουσ
3 Then, 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, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia. From there they sailed to Cyprus.
ουτοι μεν ουν εκπεμφθεντεσ υπο του πνευματοσ του αγιου κατηλθον εισ την σελευκειαν εκειθεν δε απεπλευσαν εισ την κυπρον
5 When they were at Salamis, they proclaimed God’s word in the Jewish synagogues. They also had John as their attendant.
και γενομενοι εν σαλαμινι κατηγγελλον τον λογον του θεου εν ταισ συναγωγαισ των ιουδαιων ειχον δε και ιωαννην υπηρετην
6 When they had gone through the island to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew whose name was Bar Jesus,
διελθοντεσ δε την νησον αχρι παφου ευρον τινα μαγον ψευδοπροφητην ιουδαιον ω ονομα βαριησουσ
7 who was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of understanding. This man summoned Barnabas and Saul, and sought 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 the proconsul away from the faith.
ανθιστατο δε αυτοισ ελυμασ ο μαγοσ ουτωσ γαρ μεθερμηνευεται το ονομα αυτου ζητων διαστρεψαι τον ανθυπατον απο τησ πιστεωσ
9 But Saul, who is also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, fastened his eyes on him
σαυλοσ δε ο και παυλοσ πλησθεισ πνευματοσ αγιου και ατενισασ εισ αυτον
10 and said, “You son of the devil, full of all deceit and all cunning, you enemy of all righteousness, will you 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 κυριου τασ ευθειασ
11 Now, behold, the hand of the Lord is on you, and you will be blind, not seeing the sun for a season!” Immediately a mist and darkness fell on him. He went around seeking someone to lead him by the hand.
και νυν ιδου χειρ κυριου επι σε και εση τυφλοσ μη βλεπων τον ηλιον αχρι καιρου παραχρημα δε επεπεσεν επ αυτον αχλυσ και σκοτοσ και περιαγων εζητει χειραγωγουσ
12 Then the proconsul, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the teaching of the Lord.
τοτε ιδων ο ανθυπατοσ το γεγονοσ επιστευσεν εκπλησσομενοσ επι τη διδαχη του κυριου
13 Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia. John departed from them and returned to Jerusalem.
αναχθεντεσ δε απο τησ παφου οι περι τον παυλον ηλθον εισ περγην τησ παμφυλιασ ιωαννησ δε αποχωρησασ απ αυτων υπεστρεψεν εισ ιεροσολυμα
14 But they, passing on from Perga, came to Antioch of Pisidia. They went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day and sat down.
αυτοι δε διελθοντεσ απο τησ περγησ παρεγενοντο εισ αντιοχειαν τησ πισιδιασ και εισελθοντεσ εισ την συναγωγην τη ημερα των σαββατων εκαθισαν
15 After the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, “Brothers, if you 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 εστιν λογοσ εν υμιν παρακλησεωσ προσ τον λαον λεγετε
16 Paul stood up, and gesturing with his hand said, “Men of Israel, and you who fear God, listen.
αναστασ δε παυλοσ και κατασεισασ τη χειρι ειπεν ανδρεσ ισραηλιται και οι φοβουμενοι τον θεον ακουσατε
17 The God of this people chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they stayed as aliens in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm, he led them out of it.
ο θεοσ του λαου τουτου εξελεξατο τουσ πατερασ ημων και τον λαον υψωσεν εν τη παροικια εν γη αιγυπτω και μετα βραχιονοσ υψηλου εξηγαγεν αυτουσ εξ αυτησ
18 For a period of about forty years he put up with them in the wilderness.
και ωσ τεσσαρακονταετη χρονον ετροποφορησεν αυτουσ εν τη ερημω
19 When he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land for an inheritance for about four hundred and fifty years.
και καθελων εθνη επτα εν γη χανααν κατεκληρονομησεν αυτοισ την γην αυτων
20 After these things, he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet.
και μετα ταυτα ωσ ετεσιν τετρακοσιοισ και πεντηκοντα εδωκεν κριτασ εωσ σαμουηλ του προφητου
21 Afterward they asked for a king, and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.
κακειθεν ητησαντο βασιλεα και εδωκεν αυτοισ ο θεοσ τον σαουλ υιον κισ ανδρα εκ φυλησ βενιαμιν ετη τεσσαρακοντα
22 When he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king, to whom he also testified, ‘I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my heart, who will do all my will.’
και μεταστησασ αυτον ηγειρεν αυτοισ τον δαυιδ εισ βασιλεα ω και ειπεν μαρτυρησασ ευρον δαυιδ τον του ιεσσαι ανδρα κατα την καρδιαν μου οσ ποιησει παντα τα θεληματα μου
23 From this man’s offspring, God has brought salvation to Israel according to his promise,
τουτου ο θεοσ απο του σπερματοσ κατ επαγγελιαν ηγαγεν τω ισραηλ σωτηριαν
24 before his coming, when John had first preached the baptism of repentance to Israel.
προκηρυξαντοσ ιωαννου προ προσωπου τησ εισοδου αυτου βαπτισμα μετανοιασ τω ισραηλ
25 As John was fulfilling his course, he said, ‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. But behold, one comes after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.’
ωσ δε επληρου ο ιωαννησ τον δρομον ελεγεν τινα με υπονοειτε ειναι ουκ ειμι εγω αλλ ιδου ερχεται μετ εμε ου ουκ ειμι αξιοσ το υποδημα των ποδων λυσαι
26 “Brothers, children of the stock of Abraham, and those amongst you who fear God, the word of this salvation is sent out to you.
ανδρεσ αδελφοι υιοι γενουσ αβρααμ και οι εν υμιν φοβουμενοι τον θεον υμιν ο λογοσ τησ σωτηριασ ταυτησ απεσταλη
27 For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they didn’t know him, nor the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath, fulfilled them by 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 Though they found no cause for death, they still asked Pilate to have him killed.
και μηδεμιαν αιτιαν θανατου ευροντεσ ητησαντο πιλατον αναιρεθηναι αυτον
29 When they had fulfilled all things that were written about him, they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb.
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 for many days by those 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 εισιν μαρτυρεσ αυτου προσ τον λαον
32 We bring you good news of the promise made to the fathers,
και ημεισ υμασ ευαγγελιζομεθα την προσ τουσ πατερασ επαγγελιαν γενομενην οτι ταυτην ο θεοσ εκπεπληρωκεν τοισ τεκνοισ αυτων ημιν αναστησασ ιησουν
33 that God has fulfilled this to us, their children, in that he raised up Jesus. As it is also written in the second psalm, ‘You are my Son. Today I have become your father.’
ωσ και εν τω ψαλμω τω δευτερω γεγραπται υιοσ μου ει συ εγω σημερον γεγεννηκα σε
34 “Concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he has spoken thus: ‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.’
οτι δε ανεστησεν αυτον εκ νεκρων μηκετι μελλοντα υποστρεφειν εισ διαφθοραν ουτωσ ειρηκεν οτι δωσω υμιν τα οσια δαυιδ τα πιστα
35 Therefore he says also in another psalm, ‘You will not allow your Holy One to see decay.’
διο και εν ετερω λεγει ου δωσεισ τον οσιον σου ιδειν διαφθοραν
36 For David, after he had in his own generation served the counsel of God, fell asleep, was laid with his fathers, and saw decay.
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 up saw no decay.
ον δε ο θεοσ ηγειρεν ουκ ειδεν διαφθοραν
38 Be it known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man is proclaimed to you remission of sins;
γνωστον ουν εστω υμιν ανδρεσ αδελφοι οτι δια τουτου υμιν αφεσισ αμαρτιων καταγγελλεται
39 and by him everyone who believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.
και απο παντων ων ουκ ηδυνηθητε εν τω νομω μωυσεωσ δικαιωθηναι εν τουτω πασ ο πιστευων δικαιουται
40 Beware therefore, lest that come on you which is spoken in the prophets:
βλεπετε ουν μη επελθη εφ υμασ το ειρημενον εν τοισ προφηταισ
41 ‘Behold, you scoffers! Wonder and perish, for I work a work in your days, a work which you will in no way believe, if one declares it to you.’”
ιδετε οι καταφρονηται και θαυμασατε και αφανισθητε οτι εργον εγω εργαζομαι εν ταισ ημεραισ υμων ο ου μη πιστευσητε εαν τισ εκδιηγηται υμιν
42 So when the Jews went out of the synagogue, the Gentiles begged that these words might be preached to them the next Sabbath.
εξιοντων δε εκ τησ συναγωγησ των ιουδαιων παρεκαλουν τα εθνη εισ το μεταξυ σαββατον λαληθηναι αυτοισ τα ρηματα
43 Now when the synagogue broke up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, urged 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 επειθον αυτουσ επιμενειν τη χαριτι του θεου
44 The next Sabbath, almost the whole city was gathered together to hear the word of God.
τω τε ερχομενω σαββατω σχεδον πασα η πολισ συνηχθη ακουσαι τον λογον του θεου
45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the things which were spoken by Paul, and blasphemed.
ιδοντεσ δε οι ιουδαιοι τουσ οχλουσ επλησθησαν ζηλου και αντελεγον τοισ υπο του παυλου λεγομενοισ αντιλεγοντεσ και βλασφημουντεσ
46 Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, and said, “It was necessary that God’s word should be spoken to you first. Since indeed you thrust it from yourselves, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
παρρησιασαμενοι δε ο παυλοσ και ο βαρναβασ ειπον υμιν ην αναγκαιον πρωτον λαληθηναι τον λογον του θεου επειδη δε απωθεισθε αυτον και ουκ αξιουσ κρινετε εαυτουσ τησ αιωνιου ζωησ ιδου στρεφομεθα εισ τα εθνη (aiōnios g166)
47 For so has the Lord commanded us, saying, ‘I have set you as a light for the Gentiles, that you should bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.’”
ουτωσ γαρ εντεταλται ημιν ο κυριοσ τεθεικα σε εισ φωσ εθνων του ειναι σε εισ σωτηριαν εωσ εσχατου τησ γησ
48 As the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and glorified the word of God. As many as were appointed to eternal life believed. (aiōnios g166)
ακουοντα δε τα εθνη εχαιρεν και εδοξαζον τον λογον του κυριου και επιστευσαν οσοι ησαν τεταγμενοι εισ ζωην αιωνιον (aiōnios g166)
49 The Lord’s word was spread abroad throughout all the region.
διεφερετο δε ο λογοσ του κυριου δι ολησ τησ χωρασ
50 But the Jews stirred up the devout and prominent women and the chief men of the city, and stirred up a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and threw them out of their borders.
οι δε ιουδαιοι παρωτρυναν τασ σεβομενασ γυναικασ και τασ ευσχημονασ και τουσ πρωτουσ τησ πολεωσ και επηγειραν διωγμον επι τον παυλον και τον 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 αυτων επ αυτουσ ηλθον εισ ικονιον
52 The disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
οι δε μαθηται επληρουντο χαρασ και πνευματοσ αγιου
