GNT

1 ὡς δὲ ἐγένετο ἀναχθῆναι ἡμᾶς ἀποσπασθέντας ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν, εὐθυδρομήσαντες ἤλθομεν εἰς τὴν κῶ, τῇ δὲ ἑξῆς εἰς τὴν ῥόδον, κἀκεῖθεν εἰς πάταρα·

2 καὶ εὑρόντες πλοῖον διαπερῶν εἰς φοινίκην ἐπιβάντες ἀνήχθημεν.

3 ἀναφάναντες δὲ τὴν κύπρον καὶ καταλιπόντες αὐτὴν εὐώνυμον ἐπλέομεν εἰς συρίαν, καὶ κατήλθομεν εἰς τύρον, ἐκεῖσε γὰρ τὸ πλοῖον ἦν ἀποφορτιζόμενον τὸν γόμον.

4 ἀνευρόντες δὲ τοὺς μαθητὰς ἐπεμείναμεν αὐτοῦ ἡμέρας ἑπτά, οἵτινες τῶ παύλῳ ἔλεγον διὰ τοῦ πνεύματος μὴ ἐπιβαίνειν εἰς ἱεροσόλυμα.

5 ὅτε δὲ ἐγένετο ἡμᾶς ἐξαρτίσαι τὰς ἡμέρας, ἐξελθόντες ἐπορευόμεθα προπεμπόντων ἡμᾶς πάντων σὺν γυναιξὶ καὶ τέκνοις ἕως ἔξω τῆς πόλεως, καὶ θέντες τὰ γόνατα ἐπὶ τὸν αἰγιαλὸν προσευξάμενοι

6 ἀπησπασάμεθα ἀλλήλους, καὶ ἀνέβημεν εἰς τὸ πλοῖον, ἐκεῖνοι δὲ ὑπέστρεψαν εἰς τὰ ἴδια.

7 ἡμεῖς δὲ τὸν πλοῦν διανύσαντες ἀπὸ τύρου κατηντήσαμεν εἰς πτολεμαΐδα, καὶ ἀσπασάμενοι τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς ἐμείναμεν ἡμέραν μίαν παρ᾽ αὐτοῖς.

8 τῇ δὲ ἐπαύριον ἐξελθόντες ἤλθομεν εἰς καισάρειαν, καὶ εἰσελθόντες εἰς τὸν οἶκον φιλίππου τοῦ εὐαγγελιστοῦ ὄντος ἐκ τῶν ἑπτὰ ἐμείναμεν παρ᾽ αὐτῶ.

9 τούτῳ δὲ ἦσαν θυγατέρες τέσσαρες παρθένοι προφητεύουσαι.

10 ἐπιμενόντων δὲ ἡμέρας πλείους κατῆλθέν τις ἀπὸ τῆς ἰουδαίας προφήτης ὀνόματι ἅγαβος,

11 καὶ ἐλθὼν πρὸς ἡμᾶς καὶ ἄρας τὴν ζώνην τοῦ παύλου δήσας ἑαυτοῦ τοὺς πόδας καὶ τὰς χεῖρας εἶπεν, τάδε λέγει τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον, τὸν ἄνδρα οὖ ἐστιν ἡ ζώνη αὕτη οὕτως δήσουσιν ἐν ἰερουσαλὴμ οἱ ἰουδαῖοι καὶ παραδώσουσιν εἰς χεῖρας ἐθνῶν.

12 ὡς δὲ ἠκούσαμεν ταῦτα, παρεκαλοῦμεν ἡμεῖς τε καὶ οἱ ἐντόπιοι τοῦ μὴ ἀναβαίνειν αὐτὸν εἰς ἰερουσαλήμ.

13 τότε ἀπεκρίθη ὁ παῦλος, τί ποιεῖτε κλαίοντες καὶ συνθρύπτοντές μου τὴν καρδίαν; ἐγὼ γὰρ οὐ μόνον δεθῆναι ἀλλὰ καὶ ἀποθανεῖν εἰς ἰερουσαλὴμ ἑτοίμως ἔχω ὑπὲρ τοῦ ὀνόματος τοῦ κυρίου ἰησοῦ.

14 μὴ πειθομένου δὲ αὐτοῦ ἡσυχάσαμεν εἰπόντες, τοῦ κυρίου τὸ θέλημα γινέσθω.

15 μετὰ δὲ τὰς ἡμέρας ταύτας ἐπισκευασάμενοι ἀνεβαίνομεν εἰς ἱεροσόλυμα·

16 συνῆλθον δὲ καὶ τῶν μαθητῶν ἀπὸ καισαρείας σὺν ἡμῖν, ἄγοντες παρ᾽ ᾧ ξενισθῶμεν μνάσωνί τινι κυπρίῳ, ἀρχαίῳ μαθητῇ.

17 γενομένων δὲ ἡμῶν εἰς ἱεροσόλυμα ἀσμένως ἀπεδέξαντο ἡμᾶς οἱ ἀδελφοί.

18 τῇ δὲ ἐπιούσῃ εἰσῄει ὁ παῦλος σὺν ἡμῖν πρὸς ἰάκωβον, πάντες τε παρεγένοντο οἱ πρεσβύτεροι.

19 καὶ ἀσπασάμενος αὐτοὺς ἐξηγεῖτο καθ᾽ ἓν ἕκαστον ὧν ἐποίησεν ὁ θεὸς ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν διὰ τῆς διακονίας αὐτοῦ.

20 οἱ δὲ ἀκούσαντες ἐδόξαζον τὸν θεόν, εἶπόν τε αὐτῶ, θεωρεῖς, ἀδελφέ, πόσαι μυριάδες εἰσὶν ἐν τοῖς ἰουδαίοις τῶν πεπιστευκότων, καὶ πάντες ζηλωταὶ τοῦ νόμου ὑπάρχουσιν·

21 κατηχήθησαν δὲ περὶ σοῦ ὅτι ἀποστασίαν διδάσκεις ἀπὸ μωϊσέως τοὺς κατὰ τὰ ἔθνη πάντας ἰουδαίους, λέγων μὴ περιτέμνειν αὐτοὺς τὰ τέκνα μηδὲ τοῖς ἔθεσιν περιπατεῖν.

22 τί οὗν ἐστιν; πάντως ἀκούσονται ὅτι ἐλήλυθας.

23 τοῦτο οὗν ποίησον ὅ σοι λέγομεν· εἰσὶν ἡμῖν ἄνδρες τέσσαρες εὐχὴν ἔχοντες ἐφ᾽ ἑαυτῶν.

24 τούτους παραλαβὼν ἁγνίσθητι σὺν αὐτοῖς καὶ δαπάνησον ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς ἵνα ξυρήσονται τὴν κεφαλήν, καὶ γνώσονται πάντες ὅτι ὧν κατήχηνται περὶ σοῦ οὐδέν ἐστιν, ἀλλὰ στοιχεῖς καὶ αὐτὸς φυλάσσων τὸν νόμον.

25 περὶ δὲ τῶν πεπιστευκότων ἐθνῶν ἡμεῖς ἐπεστείλαμεν κρίναντες φυλάσσεσθαι αὐτοὺς τό τε εἰδωλόθυτον καὶ αἷμα καὶ πνικτὸν καὶ πορνείαν.

26 τότε ὁ παῦλος παραλαβὼν τοὺς ἄνδρας, τῇ ἐχομένῃ ἡμέρᾳ σὺν αὐτοῖς ἁγνισθεὶς εἰσῄει εἰς τὸ ἱερόν, διαγγέλλων τὴν ἐκπλήρωσιν τῶν ἡμερῶν τοῦ ἁγνισμοῦ ἕως οὖ προσηνέχθη ὑπὲρ ἑνὸς ἑκάστου αὐτῶν ἡ προσφορά.

27 ὡς δὲ ἔμελλον αἱ ἑπτὰ ἡμέραι συντελεῖσθαι, οἱ ἀπὸ τῆς ἀσίας ἰουδαῖοι θεασάμενοι αὐτὸν ἐν τῶ ἱερῶ συνέχεον πάντα τὸν ὄχλον καὶ ἐπέβαλον ἐπ᾽ αὐτὸν τὰς χεῖρας,

28 κράζοντες, ἄνδρες ἰσραηλῖται, βοηθεῖτε· οὖτός ἐστιν ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ κατὰ τοῦ λαοῦ καὶ τοῦ νόμου καὶ τοῦ τόπου τούτου πάντας πανταχῇ διδάσκων, ἔτι τε καὶ ἕλληνας εἰσήγαγεν εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν καὶ κεκοίνωκεν τὸν ἅγιον τόπον τοῦτον.

29 ἦσαν γὰρ προεωρακότες τρόφιμον τὸν ἐφέσιον ἐν τῇ πόλει σὺν αὐτῶ, ὃν ἐνόμιζον ὅτι εἰς τὸ ἱερὸν εἰσήγαγεν ὁ παῦλος.

30 ἐκινήθη τε ἡ πόλις ὅλη καὶ ἐγένετο συνδρομὴ τοῦ λαοῦ, καὶ ἐπιλαβόμενοι τοῦ παύλου εἷλκον αὐτὸν ἔξω τοῦ ἱεροῦ, καὶ εὐθέως ἐκλείσθησαν αἱ θύραι.

31 ζητούντων τε αὐτὸν ἀποκτεῖναι ἀνέβη φάσις τῶ χιλιάρχῳ τῆς σπείρης ὅτι ὅλη συγχύννεται ἰερουσαλήμ,

32 ὃς ἐξαυτῆς παραλαβὼν στρατιώτας καὶ ἑκατοντάρχας κατέδραμεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτούς· οἱ δὲ ἰδόντες τὸν χιλίαρχον καὶ τοὺς στρατιώτας ἐπαύσαντο τύπτοντες τὸν παῦλον.

33 τότε ἐγγίσας ὁ χιλίαρχος ἐπελάβετο αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐκέλευσεν δεθῆναι ἁλύσεσι δυσί, καὶ ἐπυνθάνετο τίς εἴη καὶ τί ἐστιν πεποιηκώς.

34 ἄλλοι δὲ ἄλλο τι ἐπεφώνουν ἐν τῶ ὄχλῳ· μὴ δυναμένου δὲ αὐτοῦ γνῶναι τὸ ἀσφαλὲς διὰ τὸν θόρυβον ἐκέλευσεν ἄγεσθαι αὐτὸν εἰς τὴν παρεμβολήν.

35 ὅτε δὲ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ τοὺς ἀναβαθμούς, συνέβη βαστάζεσθαι αὐτὸν ὑπὸ τῶν στρατιωτῶν διὰ τὴν βίαν τοῦ ὄχλου,

36 ἠκολούθει γὰρ τὸ πλῆθος τοῦ λαοῦ κράζοντες, αἶρε αὐτόν.

37 μέλλων τε εἰσάγεσθαι εἰς τὴν παρεμβολὴν ὁ παῦλος λέγει τῶ χιλιάρχῳ, εἰ ἔξεστίν μοι εἰπεῖν τι πρὸς σέ; ὁ δὲ ἔφη, ἑλληνιστὶ γινώσκεις;

38 οὐκ ἄρα σὺ εἶ ὁ αἰγύπτιος ὁ πρὸ τούτων τῶν ἡμερῶν ἀναστατώσας καὶ ἐξαγαγὼν εἰς τὴν ἔρημον τοὺς τετρακισχιλίους ἄνδρας τῶν σικαρίων;

39 εἶπεν δὲ ὁ παῦλος, ἐγὼ ἄνθρωπος μέν εἰμι ἰουδαῖος, ταρσεὺς τῆς κιλικίας, οὐκ ἀσήμου πόλεως πολίτης· δέομαι δέ σου, ἐπίτρεψόν μοι λαλῆσαι πρὸς τὸν λαόν.

40 ἐπιτρέψαντος δὲ αὐτοῦ ὁ παῦλος ἑστὼς ἐπὶ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν κατέσεισεν τῇ χειρὶ τῶ λαῶ· πολλῆς δὲ σιγῆς γενομένης προσεφώνησεν τῇ ἑβραΐδι διαλέκτῳ λέγων,

11  And²⁵³² when he was come²⁰⁶⁴ unto⁴³¹⁴ us,²²⁴⁸ he²⁵³² took¹⁴² Paul's³⁹⁷² girdle,²²²³ and⁵⁰³⁷ bound¹²¹⁰ his own⁸⁴⁸ hands⁵⁴⁹⁵ and²⁵³² feet,⁴²²⁸ and said,²⁰³⁶ Thus³⁵⁹² saith³⁰⁰⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ Holy⁴⁰ Ghost,⁴¹⁵¹ So³⁷⁷⁹ shall the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews²⁴⁵³ at¹⁷²² Jerusalem²⁴¹⁹ bind¹²¹⁰ the³⁵⁸⁸ man⁴³⁵ that³⁷³⁹ owneth²⁰⁷⁶ this³⁷⁷⁸ girdle,²²²³ and²⁵³² shall deliver³⁸⁶⁰ him into¹⁵¹⁹ the hands⁵⁴⁹⁵ of the Gentiles.¹⁴⁸⁴

12  And¹¹⁶¹ when⁵⁶¹³ we heard¹⁹¹ these things,⁵⁰²³ both⁵⁰³⁷ we,²²⁴⁹ and²⁵³² they of that place,¹⁷⁸⁶ besought³⁸⁷⁰ him⁸⁴⁶ not³³⁶¹ to go up³⁰⁵ to¹⁵¹⁹ Jerusalem.²⁴¹⁹

13  Then¹¹⁶¹ Paul³⁹⁷² answered,⁶¹¹ What⁵¹⁰¹ mean⁴¹⁶⁰ ye to weep²⁷⁹⁹ and²⁵³² to break⁴⁹¹⁹ mine³⁴⁵⁰ heart?²⁵⁸⁸ for¹⁰⁶³ I¹⁴⁷³ am²¹⁹² ready²⁰⁹³ not³⁷⁵⁶ to be bound¹²¹⁰ only,³⁴⁴⁰ but²³⁵ also²⁵³² to die⁵⁹⁹ at¹⁵¹⁹ Jerusalem²⁴¹⁹ for⁵²²⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ name³⁶⁸⁶ of the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord²⁹⁶² Jesus.²⁴²⁴

14  And¹¹⁶¹ when he⁸⁴⁶ would not³³⁶¹ be persuaded,³⁹⁸² we ceased,²²⁷⁰ saying,²⁰³⁶ The³⁵⁸⁸ will²³⁰⁷ of the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord²⁹⁶² be done.¹⁰⁹⁶

15  And¹¹⁶¹ after³³²⁶ those⁵⁰²⁵ days²²⁵⁰ we took up our carriages,⁶⁴³ and went up³⁰⁵ to¹⁵¹⁹ Jerusalem.²⁴¹⁹

16  There¹¹⁶¹ went⁴⁹⁰⁵ with⁴⁸⁶² us²²⁵⁴ also²⁵³² certain of the³⁵⁸⁸ disciples³¹⁰¹ of⁵⁷⁵ Caesarea,²⁵⁴² and brought⁷¹ with them one⁵¹⁰⁰ Mnason³⁴¹⁶ of Cyprus,²⁹⁵³ an old⁷⁴⁴ disciple,³¹⁰¹ with³⁸⁴⁴ whom³⁷³⁹ we should lodge.³⁵⁷⁹

17  And¹¹⁶¹ when we²²⁵⁷ were come¹⁰⁹⁶ to¹⁵¹⁹ Jerusalem,²⁴¹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ brethren⁸⁰ received¹²⁰⁹ us²²⁴⁸ gladly.⁷⁸⁰

18  And¹¹⁶¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ day following¹⁹⁶⁶ Paul³⁹⁷² went in¹⁵²⁴ with⁴⁸⁶² us²²⁵⁴ unto⁴³¹⁴ James;²³⁸⁵ and⁵⁰³⁷ all³⁹⁵⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ elders⁴²⁴⁵ were present.³⁸⁵⁴

19  And²⁵³² when he had saluted⁷⁸² them,⁸⁴⁶ he declared¹⁸³⁴ particularly^{2596 1520 1538} what things³⁷³⁹ God²³¹⁶ had wrought⁴¹⁶⁰ among¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ Gentiles¹⁴⁸⁴ by¹²²³ his⁸⁴⁸ ministry.¹²⁴⁸

20  And¹¹⁶¹ when they³⁵⁸⁸ heard¹⁹¹ it, they glorified¹³⁹² the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord,²⁹⁶² and⁵⁰³⁷ said²⁰³⁶ unto him,⁸⁴⁶ Thou seest,²³³⁴ brother,⁸⁰ how many⁴²¹⁴ thousands³⁴⁶¹ of Jews²⁴⁵³ there are¹⁵²⁶ which believe;⁴¹⁰⁰ and²⁵³² they are⁵²²⁵ all³⁹⁵⁶ zealous²²⁰⁷ of the³⁵⁸⁸ law:³⁵⁵¹

21  And¹¹⁶¹ they are informed²⁷²⁷ of⁴⁰¹² thee,⁴⁶⁷⁵ that³⁷⁵⁴ thou teachest¹³²¹ all³⁹⁵⁶ the Jews²⁴⁵³ which³⁵⁸⁸ are among²⁵⁹⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ Gentiles¹⁴⁸⁴ to forsake⁶⁴⁶ Moses,³⁴⁷⁵ saying³⁰⁰⁴ that they⁸⁴⁶ ought not³³⁶¹ to circumcise⁴⁰⁵⁹ their children,⁵⁰⁴³ neither³³⁶⁶ to walk⁴⁰⁴³ after the³⁵⁸⁸ customs.¹⁴⁸⁵

22  What⁵¹⁰¹ is²⁰⁷⁶ it therefore?³⁷⁶⁷ the multitude⁴¹²⁸ must¹¹⁶³ needs³⁸⁴³ come together:⁴⁹⁰⁵ for¹⁰⁶³ they will hear¹⁹¹ that³⁷⁵⁴ thou art come.²⁰⁶⁴

23  Do⁴¹⁶⁰ therefore³⁷⁶⁷ this⁵¹²⁴ that³⁷³⁹ we say³⁰⁰⁴ to thee:⁴⁶⁷¹ We²²⁵⁴ have¹⁵²⁶ four⁵⁰⁶⁴ men⁴³⁵ which have²¹⁹² a vow²¹⁷¹ on¹⁹⁰⁹ them;¹⁴³⁸

24  Them⁵¹²⁸ take,³⁸⁸⁰ and purify⁴⁸ thyself with⁴⁸⁶² them,⁸⁴⁶ and²⁵³² be at charges¹¹⁵⁹ with¹⁹⁰⁹ them,⁸⁴⁶ that²⁴⁴³ they may shave³⁵⁸⁷ their heads:²⁷⁷⁶ and²⁵³² all³⁹⁵⁶ may know¹⁰⁹⁷ that³⁷⁵⁴ those things, whereof³⁷³⁹ they were informed²⁷²⁷ concerning⁴⁰¹² thee,⁴⁶⁷⁵ are²⁰⁷⁶ nothing;³⁷⁶² but²³⁵ that thou⁸⁴⁸ thyself also²⁵³² walkest orderly,⁴⁷⁴⁸ and keepest⁵⁴⁴² the³⁵⁸⁸ law.³⁵⁵¹

25  ¹¹⁶¹ As touching⁴⁰¹² the³⁵⁸⁸ Gentiles¹⁴⁸⁴ which believe,⁴¹⁰⁰ we²²⁴⁹ have written¹⁹⁸⁹ and concluded²⁹¹⁹ that they⁸⁴⁶ observe⁵⁰⁸³ no³³⁶⁷ such thing,⁵¹⁰⁸ save¹⁵⁰⁸ only that they keep⁵⁴⁴² themselves⁸⁴⁶ from⁵⁰³⁷ things offered to idols,¹⁴⁹⁴ and²⁵³² from blood,¹²⁹ and²⁵³² from strangled,⁴¹⁵⁶ and²⁵³² from fornication.⁴²⁰²

26  Then⁵¹¹⁹ Paul³⁹⁷² took³⁸⁸⁰ the³⁵⁸⁸ men,⁴³⁵ and the³⁵⁸⁸ next²¹⁹² day²²⁵⁰ purifying⁴⁸ himself with⁴⁸⁶² them⁸⁴⁶ entered¹⁵²⁴ into¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ temple,²⁴¹¹ to signify¹²²⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ accomplishment¹⁶⁰⁴ of the³⁵⁸⁸ days²²⁵⁰ of purification,⁴⁹ until^{2193 3757} that an offering⁴³⁷⁶ should be offered⁴³⁷⁴ for⁵²²⁸ every¹⁵³⁸ one¹⁵²⁰ of them.⁸⁴⁶

27  And¹¹⁶¹ when⁵⁶¹³ the³⁵⁸⁸ seven²⁰³³ days²²⁵⁰ were almost³¹⁹⁵ ended,⁴⁹³¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews²⁴⁵³ which were of⁵⁷⁵ Asia,⁷⁷³ when they saw²³⁰⁰ him⁸⁴⁶ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ temple,²⁴¹¹ stirred up⁴⁷⁹⁷ all³⁹⁵⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ people,³⁷⁹³ and²⁵³² laid¹⁹¹¹ hands⁵⁴⁹⁵ on¹⁹⁰⁹ him,⁸⁴⁶

28  Crying out,²⁸⁹⁶ Men⁴³⁵ of Israel,²⁴⁷⁵ help:⁹⁹⁷ This³⁷⁷⁸ is²⁰⁷⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ man,⁴⁴⁴ that teacheth¹³²¹ all³⁹⁵⁶ men every where³⁸³⁷ against²⁵⁹⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ people,²⁹⁹² and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ law,³⁵⁵¹ and²⁵³² this⁵¹²⁷ place:⁵¹¹⁷ and⁵⁰³⁷ further²⁰⁸⁹ brought¹⁵²¹ Greeks¹⁶⁷² also²⁵³² into¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ temple,²⁴¹¹ and²⁵³² hath polluted²⁸⁴⁰ this⁵¹²⁶ holy⁴⁰ place.⁵¹¹⁷

29  (For¹⁰⁶³ they had²²⁵⁸ seen before⁴³⁰⁸ with⁴⁸⁶² him⁸⁴⁶ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ city⁴¹⁷² Trophimus⁵¹⁶¹ an Ephesian,²¹⁸⁰ whom³⁷³⁹ they supposed³⁵⁴³ that³⁷⁵⁴ Paul³⁹⁷² had brought¹⁵²¹ into¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ temple.)²⁴¹¹

30  And⁵⁰³⁷ all³⁶⁵⁰ the³⁵⁸⁸ city⁴¹⁷² was moved,²⁷⁹⁵ and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ people²⁹⁹² ran together:^{1096 4890} and²⁵³² they took¹⁹⁴⁹ Paul,³⁹⁷² and drew¹⁶⁷⁰ him⁸⁴⁶ out¹⁸⁵⁴ of the³⁵⁸⁸ temple:²⁴¹¹ and²⁵³² forthwith²¹¹² the³⁵⁸⁸ doors²³⁷⁴ were shut.²⁸⁰⁸

31  And¹¹⁶¹ as they went about²²¹² to kill⁶¹⁵ him,⁸⁴⁶ tidings⁵³³⁴ came³⁰⁵ unto the³⁵⁸⁸ chief captain⁵⁵⁰⁶ of the³⁵⁸⁸ band,⁴⁶⁸⁶ that³⁷⁵⁴ all³⁶⁵⁰ Jerusalem²⁴¹⁹ was in an uproar.⁴⁷⁹⁷

32  Who³⁷³⁹ immediately¹⁸²⁴ took³⁸⁸⁰ soldiers⁴⁷⁵⁷ and²⁵³² centurions,¹⁵⁴³ and ran down²⁷⁰¹ unto¹⁹⁰⁹ them:⁸⁴⁶ and¹¹⁶¹ when they³⁵⁸⁸ saw¹⁴⁹² the³⁵⁸⁸ chief captain⁵⁵⁰⁶ and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ soldiers,⁴⁷⁵⁷ they left³⁹⁷³ beating⁵¹⁸⁰ of Paul.³⁹⁷²

33  Then⁵¹¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ chief captain⁵⁵⁰⁶ came near,¹⁴⁴⁸ and took¹⁹⁴⁹ him,⁸⁴⁶ and²⁵³² commanded²⁷⁵³ him to be bound¹²¹⁰ with two¹⁴¹⁷ chains;²⁵⁴ and²⁵³² demanded⁴⁴⁴¹ who⁵¹⁰¹ he was,^{1498 302} and²⁵³² what⁵¹⁰¹ he had²⁰⁷⁶ done.⁴¹⁶⁰

34  And¹¹⁶¹ some cried one thing, some another,^{243 994 243 5100} among¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ multitude:³⁷⁹³ and¹¹⁶¹ when he could¹⁴¹⁰ not³³⁶¹ know¹⁰⁹⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ certainty⁸⁰⁴ for¹²²³ the³⁵⁸⁸ tumult,²³⁵¹ he commanded²⁷⁵³ him⁸⁴⁶ to be carried⁷¹ into¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ castle.³⁹²⁵

35  And¹¹⁶¹ when³⁷⁵³ he came¹⁰⁹⁶ upon¹⁹⁰⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ stairs,³⁰⁴ so it was,⁴⁸¹⁹ that he⁸⁴⁶ was borne⁹⁴¹ of⁵²⁵⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ soldiers⁴⁷⁵⁷ for¹²²³ the³⁵⁸⁸ violence⁹⁷⁰ of the³⁵⁸⁸ people.³⁷⁹³

36  For¹⁰⁶³ the³⁵⁸⁸ multitude⁴¹²⁸ of the³⁵⁸⁸ people²⁹⁹² followed after,¹⁹⁰ crying,²⁸⁹⁶ Away¹⁴² with him.⁸⁴⁶

37  And⁵⁰³⁷ as Paul³⁹⁷² was³¹⁹⁵ to be led¹⁵²¹ into¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ castle,³⁹²⁵ he said³⁰⁰⁴ unto the³⁵⁸⁸ chief captain,^{5506 1487} May¹⁸³² I³⁴²⁷ speak²⁰³⁶ unto⁴³¹⁴ thee?^{4571 1161} Who³⁵⁸⁸ said,⁵³⁴⁶ Canst thou speak Greek?^{1097 1676}

38  Art¹⁴⁸⁸ not³⁷⁵⁶ thou⁴⁷⁷¹ that⁶⁸⁶ Egyptian,¹²⁴ which before⁴²⁵³ these⁵¹³⁰ days²²⁵⁰ madest an uproar,³⁸⁷ and²⁵³² leddest out¹⁸⁰⁶ into¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ wilderness²⁰⁴⁸ four thousand⁵⁰⁷⁰ men⁴³⁵ that were murderers?⁴⁶⁰⁷

39  But¹¹⁶¹ Paul³⁹⁷² said,²⁰³⁶ I¹⁴⁷³ am¹⁵¹⁰ a man⁴⁴⁴ which³³⁰³ am a Jew²⁴⁵³ of Tarsus,⁵⁰¹⁸ a city in Cilicia,²⁷⁹¹ a citizen⁴¹⁷⁷ of no³⁷⁵⁶ mean⁷⁶⁷ city:⁴¹⁷² and,¹¹⁶¹ I beseech¹¹⁸⁹ thee,⁴⁶⁷⁵ suffer²⁰¹⁰ me³⁴²⁷ to speak²⁹⁸⁰ unto⁴³¹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ people.²⁹⁹²

40  And¹¹⁶¹ when he⁸⁴⁶ had given him license,²⁰¹⁰ Paul³⁹⁷² stood²⁴⁷⁶ on¹⁹⁰⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ stairs,³⁰⁴ and beckoned²⁶⁷⁸ with the³⁵⁸⁸ hand⁵⁴⁹⁵ unto the³⁵⁸⁸ people.²⁹⁹² And¹¹⁶¹ when there was made¹⁰⁹⁶ a great⁴¹⁸³ silence,⁴⁶⁰² he spake unto⁴³⁷⁷ them in the³⁵⁸⁸ Hebrew¹⁴⁴⁶ tongue,¹²⁵⁸ saying,³⁰⁰⁴

1  And¹¹⁶¹ it⁵⁶¹³ came to pass,¹⁰⁹⁶ that after we²²⁴⁸ were gotten⁶⁴⁵ from⁵⁷⁵ them,⁸⁴⁶ and had launched,³²¹ we came²⁰⁶⁴ with a straight course²¹¹³ unto¹⁵¹⁹ Coos,²⁹⁷² and¹¹⁶¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ day following¹⁸³⁶ unto¹⁵¹⁹ Rhodes,⁴⁴⁹⁹ and from thence²⁵⁴⁷ unto¹⁵¹⁹ Patara:³⁹⁵⁹

2  And²⁵³² finding²¹⁴⁷ a ship⁴¹⁴³ sailing over¹²⁷⁶ unto¹⁵¹⁹ Phoenicia,⁵⁴⁰³ we went aboard,¹⁹¹⁰ and set forth.³²¹

3  Now¹¹⁶¹ when we had discovered³⁹⁸ Cyprus,²⁹⁵⁴ we²⁵³² left²⁶⁴¹ it⁸⁴⁶ on the left hand,²¹⁷⁶ and sailed⁴¹²⁶ into¹⁵¹⁹ Syria,⁴⁹⁴⁷ and²⁵³² landed²⁶⁰⁹ at¹⁵¹⁹ Tyre:⁵¹⁸⁴ for¹⁰⁶³ there¹⁵⁶⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ ship⁴¹⁴³ was²²⁵⁸ to unlade⁶⁷⁰ her burden.¹¹¹⁷

4  And²⁵³² finding⁴²⁹ disciples³¹⁰¹ we tarried¹⁹⁶¹ there⁸⁴⁷ seven²⁰³³ days:²²⁵⁰ who³⁷⁴⁸ said³⁰⁰⁴ to Paul³⁹⁷² through¹²²³ the³⁵⁸⁸ Spirit,⁴¹⁵¹ that he should not³³⁶¹ go up³⁰⁵ to¹⁵¹⁹ Jerusalem.²⁴¹⁹

5  And¹¹⁶¹ when³⁷⁵³ we²²⁴⁸ had¹⁰⁹⁶ accomplished¹⁸²² those days,²²⁵⁰ we departed¹⁸³¹ and went our way;⁴¹⁹⁸ and they all³⁹⁵⁶ brought us on our way,^{4311 2248} with⁴⁸⁶² wives¹¹³⁵ and²⁵³² children,⁵⁰⁴³ till²¹⁹³ we were out¹⁸⁵⁴ of the³⁵⁸⁸ city:⁴¹⁷² and²⁵³² we kneeled down^{5087 1119} on¹⁹⁰⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ shore,¹²³ and prayed.⁴³³⁶

6  And²⁵³² when we had taken our leave⁷⁸² one of another,²⁴⁰ we took ship;^{1910 1519 4143} and¹¹⁶¹ they¹⁵⁶⁵ returned⁵²⁹⁰ home again.^{1519 2398}

7  And¹¹⁶¹ when we²²⁴⁹ had finished¹²⁷⁴ our course⁴¹⁴⁴ from⁵⁷⁵ Tyre,⁵¹⁸⁴ we came²⁶⁵⁸ to¹⁵¹⁹ Ptolemais,⁴⁴²⁴ and²⁵³² saluted⁷⁸² the³⁵⁸⁸ brethren,⁸⁰ and abode³³⁰⁶ with³⁸⁴⁴ them⁸⁴⁶ one³³⁹¹ day.²²⁵⁰

8  And¹¹⁶¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ next¹⁸⁸⁷ day we that were of Paul's company^{4012 3972} departed,¹⁸³¹ and came²⁰⁶⁴ unto¹⁵¹⁹ Caesarea:²⁵⁴² and²⁵³² we entered¹⁵²⁵ into¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ house³⁶²⁴ of Philip⁵³⁷⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ evangelist,²⁰⁹⁹ which was⁵⁶⁰⁷ was⁵⁶⁰⁷ one of¹⁵³⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ seven;²⁰³³ and abode³³⁰⁶ with³⁸⁴⁴ him.⁸⁴⁶

9  And¹¹⁶¹ the same man⁵¹²⁹ had²²⁵⁸ four⁵⁰⁶⁴ daughters,²³⁶⁴ virgins,³⁹³³ which did prophesy.⁴³⁹⁵

10  And¹¹⁶¹ as we²²⁵⁷ tarried¹⁹⁶¹ there many⁴¹¹⁹ days,²²⁵⁰ there came down²⁷¹⁸ from⁵⁷⁵ Judea²⁴⁴⁹ a certain⁵¹⁰⁰ prophet,⁴³⁹⁶ named³⁶⁸⁶ Agabus.¹³

Vul

1 Cum autem factum esset ut navigaremus abstracti ab eis, recto cursu venimus Coum, et sequenti die Rhodum, et inde Pataram.

2 Et cum invenissemus navem transfretantem in Phœnicen, ascendentes navigavimus.

3 Cum apparuissemus autem Cypro, relinquentes eam ad sinistram, navigavimus in Syriam, et venimus Tyrum: ibi enim navis expositura erat onus.

4 Inventis autem discipulis, mansimus ibi diebus septem: qui Paulo dicebant per Spiritum ne ascenderet Jerosolymam.

5 Et expletis diebus, profecti ibamus, deducentibus nos omnibus cum uxoribus et filiis usque foras civitatem: et positis genibus in littore, oravimus.

6 Et cum valefecissemus invicem, ascendimus navem: illi autem redierunt in sua.

7 Nos vero navigatione expleta a Tyro descendimus Ptolemaidam: et salutatis fratribus, mansimus die una apud illos.

8 Alia autem die profecti, venimus Cæsaream. Et intrantes domum Philippi evangelistæ, qui erat unus de septem, mansimus apud eum.

9 Huic autem erant quatuor filiæ virgines prophetantes.

10 Et cum moraremur per dies aliquot, supervenit quidam a Judæa propheta, nomine Agabus.

11 Is cum venisset ad nos, tulit zonam Pauli: et alligans sibi pedes et manus, dixit: Hæc dicit Spiritus Sanctus: Virum, cujus est zona hæc, sic alligabunt in Jerusalem Judæi, et tradent in manus gentium.

12 Quod cum audissemus, rogabamus nos, et qui loci illius erant, ne ascenderet Jerosolymam.

13 Tunc respondit Paulus, et dixit: Quid facitis flentes, et affligentes cor meum? Ego enim non solum alligari, sed et mori in Jerusalem paratus sum propter nomen Domini Jesu.

14 Et cum ei suadere non possemus, quievimus, dicentes: Domini voluntas fiat.

15 Post dies autem istos, præparati ascendebamus in Jerusalem.

16 Venerunt autem et ex discipulis a Cæsarea nobiscum, adducentes secum apud quem hospitaremur Mnasonem quemdam Cyprium, antiquum discipulum.

17 Et cum venissemus Jerosolymam, libenter exceperunt nos fratres.

18 Sequenti autem die introibat Paulus nobiscum ad Jacobum, omnesque collecti sunt seniores.

19 Quos cum salutasset, narrabat per singula quæ Deus fecisset in gentibus per ministerium ipsius.

20 At illi cum audissent, magnificabant Deum, dixeruntque ei: Vides, frater, quot millia sunt in Judæis qui crediderunt, et omnes æmulatores sunt legis.

21 Audierunt autem de te quia discessionem doceas a Moyse eorum qui per gentes sunt Judæorum, dicens non debere eos circumcidere filios suos, neque secundum consuetudinem ingredi.

22 Quid ergo est? utique oportet convenire multitudinem: audient enim te supervenisse.

23 Hoc ergo fac quod tibi dicimus. Sunt nobis viri quatuor, votum habentes super se.

24 His assumptis, sanctifica te cum illis, et impende in illis ut radant capita: et scient omnes quia quæ de te audierunt, falsa sunt, sed ambulas et ipse custodiens legem.

25 De his autem qui crediderunt ex gentibus, nos scripsimus judicantes ut abstineant se ab idolis immolato, et sanguine, et suffocato, et fornicatione.

26 Tunc Paulus, assumptis viris, postera die purificatus cum illis intravit in templum, annuntians expletionem dierum purificationis, donec offerretur pro unoquoque eorum oblatio.

27 Dum autem septem dies consummarentur, hi qui de Asia erant Judæi, cum vidissent eum in templo, concitaverunt omnem populum, et injecerunt ei manus, clamantes:

28 Viri Israëlitæ, adjuvate: hic est homo qui adversus populum, et legem, et locum hunc, omnes ubique docens, insuper et gentiles induxit in templum, et violavit sanctum locum istum.

29 Viderant enim Trophimum Ephesium in civitate cum ipso, quem æstimaverunt quoniam in templum introduxisset Paulus.

34 Alii autem aliud clamabant in turba. Et cum non posset certum cognoscere præ tumultu, jussit duci eum in castra.

35 Et cum venisset ad gradus, contigit ut portaretur a militibus propter vim populi.

36 Sequebatur enim multitudo populi, clamans: Tolle eum.

37 Et cum cœpisset induci in castra Paulus, dicit tribuno: Si licet mihi loqui aliquid ad te? Qui dixit: Græce nosti?

38 nonne tu es Ægyptius, qui ante hos dies tumultum concitasti, et eduxisti in desertum quatuor millia virorum sicariorum?

39 Et dixit ad eum Paulus: Ego homo sum quidem Judæus a Tarso Ciliciæ, non ignotæ civitatis municeps. Rogo autem te, permitte mihi loqui ad populum.

40 Et cum ille permisisset, Paulus stans in gradibus annuit manu ad plebem, et magno silentio facto, allocutus est lingua hebræa, dicens:
