Πραξεις 14

1 εγενετο δε εν ικονιω κατα το αυτο εισελθειν αυτουσ εισ την συναγωγην των ιουδαιων και λαλησαι ουτωσ ωστε πιστευσαι ιουδαιων τε και ελληνων πολυ πληθοσ

And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke that a great multitude both of Jews and Greeks believed.

2 οι δε απειθουντεσ ιουδαιοι επηγειραν και εκακωσαν τασ ψυχασ των εθνων κατα των αδελφων

But the Jews that disbelieved stirred up and embittered the minds of the gentiles against the brethren.

3 ικανον μεν ουν χρονον διετριψαν παρρησιαζομενοι επι τω κυριω τω μαρτυρουντι τω λογω τησ χαριτοσ αυτου διδοντι σημεια και τερατα γινεσθαι δια των χειρων αυτων

They abode therefore a long time there, speaking boldly in reliance on the Lord, who gave testimony to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be wrought by their a hands.

4 εσχισθη δε το πληθοσ τησ πολεωσ και οι μεν ησαν συν τοισ ιουδαιοισ οι δε συν τοισ αποστολοισ

But the multitude of the city was divided; and some held with the Jews, and some with the apostles.

5 ωσ δε εγενετο ορμη των εθνων τε και ιουδαιων συν τοισ αρχουσιν αυτων υβρισαι και λιθοβολησαι αυτουσ

And when a movement was made both of the gentiles, and the Jews with their rulers, to abuse and stone them,

6 συνιδοντεσ κατεφυγον εισ τασ πολεισ τησ λυκαονιασ λυστραν και δερβην και την περιχωρον

they became aware of it, and fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the neighboring country;

7 κακει ησαν ευαγγελιζομενοι

and they were publishing the glad tidings there.

8 και τισ ανηρ εν λυστροισ αδυνατοσ τοισ ποσιν εκαθητο χωλοσ εκ κοιλιασ μητροσ αυτου υπαρχων οσ ουδεποτε περιπεπατηκει

And at Lystra there sat a certain man who had not the use of his feet, a cripple from his birth, who never had walked.

9 ουτοσ ηκουσεν του παυλου λαλουντοσ οσ ατενισασ αυτω και ιδων οτι πιστιν εχει του σωθηναι

This man heard Paul speaking; who looking steadily at him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,

10 ειπεν μεγαλη τη φωνη αναστηθι επι τουσ ποδασ σου ορθωσ και ηλλετο και περιεπατει

said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped up and walked.

11 οι δε οχλοι ιδοντεσ ο εποιησεν ο παυλοσ επηραν την φωνην αυτων λυκαονιστι λεγοντεσ οι θεοι ομοιωθεντεσ ανθρωποισ κατεβησαν προσ ημασ

And the multitudes, seeing what Paul had done, lifted up their voices, saying, in the language of Lycaonia, The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men.

12 εκαλουν τε τον μεν βαρναβαν δια τον δε παυλον ερμην επειδη αυτοσ ην ο ηγουμενοσ του λογου

And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercury, because he was the chief speaker.

13 ο δε ιερευσ του διοσ του οντοσ προ τησ πολεωσ αυτων ταυρουσ και στεμματα επι τουσ πυλωνασ ενεγκασ συν τοισ οχλοισ ηθελεν θυειν

Then the priest of Jupiter, that was in front of the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, and would have offered sacrifice with the multitudes.

14 ακουσαντεσ δε οι αποστολοι βαρναβασ και παυλοσ διαρρηξαντεσ τα ιματια αυτων εισεπηδησαν εισ τον οχλον κραζοντεσ

But the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, when they heard of it, rent their garments, and rushed forth to the multitude, crying out

15 και λεγοντεσ ανδρεσ τι ταυτα ποιειτε και ημεισ ομοιοπαθεισ εσμεν υμιν ανθρωποι ευαγγελιζομενοι υμασ απο τουτων των ματαιων επιστρεφειν επι τον θεον τον ζωντα οσ εποιησεν τον ουρανον και την γην και την θαλασσαν και παντα τα εν αυτοισ

and saying, Men, why do ye these things? We also are men of like nature with you, bringing to you glad tidings, that ye may turn from these vanities to the living God, who made heaven and earth and sea, and all things that are therein;

16 οσ εν ταισ παρωχημεναισ γενεαισ ειασεν παντα τα εθνη πορευεσθαι ταισ οδοισ αυτων

who in the ages past suffered all the nations to walk in their own ways;

17 καιτοιγε ουκ αμαρτυρον εαυτον αφηκεν αγαθοποιων ουρανοθεν υμιν υετουσ διδουσ και καιρουσ καρποφορουσ εμπιπλων τροφησ και ευφροσυνησ τασ καρδιασ ημων

although he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, giving you rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness.

18 και ταυτα λεγοντεσ μολισ κατεπαυσαν τουσ οχλουσ του μη θυειν αυτοισ

And with these words, they hardly restrained the multitudes from sacrificing to them.

19 επηλθον δε απο αντιοχειασ και ικονιου ιουδαιοι και πεισαντεσ τουσ οχλουσ και λιθασαντεσ τον παυλον εσυρον εξω τησ πολεωσ νομισαντεσ αυτον τεθναναι

But there came thither Jews from Antioch and Iconium; who, having persuaded the multitudes, and stoned Paul, dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.

20 κυκλωσαντων δε αυτον των μαθητων αναστασ εισηλθεν εισ την πολιν και τη επαυριον εξηλθεν συν τω βαρναβα εισ δερβην

But the disciples having gathered around him, he rose up, and came into the city. And the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

21 ευαγγελισαμενοι τε την πολιν εκεινην και μαθητευσαντεσ ικανουσ υπεστρεψαν εισ την λυστραν και ικονιον και αντιοχειαν

And when they had published the glad tidings to that city, and had made many disciples, they went back to Lystra, and to Iconium, and to Antioch;

22 επιστηριζοντεσ τασ ψυχασ των μαθητων παρακαλουντεσ εμμενειν τη πιστει και οτι δια πολλων θλιψεων δει ημασ εισελθειν εισ την βασιλειαν του θεου

confirming the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and saying that it is through many afflictions that we mast enter into the kingdom of God.

23 χειροτονησαντεσ δε αυτοισ πρεσβυτερουσ κατ εκκλησιαν προσευξαμενοι μετα νηστειων παρεθεντο αυτουσ τω κυριω εισ ον πεπιστευκεισαν

And having appointed for them elders in every church, they prayed with fasting, and commended them to the Lord, in whom they believed.

24 και διελθοντεσ την πισιδιαν ηλθον εισ παμφυλιαν

And having gone through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia;

25 και λαλησαντεσ εν περγη τον λογον κατεβησαν εισ ατταλειαν

and when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia,

26 κακειθεν απεπλευσαν εισ αντιοχειαν οθεν ησαν παραδεδομενοι τη χαριτι του θεου εισ το εργον ο επληρωσαν

and thence set sail for Antioch, whence they had been commended to the grace of God, for the work which they had accomplished.

27 παραγενομενοι δε και συναγαγοντεσ την εκκλησιαν ανηγγειλαν οσα εποιησεν ο θεοσ μετ αυτων και οτι ηνοιξεν τοισ εθνεσιν θυραν πιστεωσ

And when they had arrived and had gathered the church together, they related what great things God had wrought with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the gentiles.

28 διετριβον δε εκει χρονον ουκ ολιγον συν τοισ μαθηταισ

And they abode no little time with the disciples.
