Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Now there were in the church which was at Antioch, prophets and doctors, among whom was Barnabas, and Simon who was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manahen, who was the foster brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
1ησαν 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
2And as they were ministering to the Lord, and fasting, the Holy Ghost said to them: Separate me Saul and Barnabas, for the work whereunto I have taken them.
2λειτουργουντων 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
3Then they, fasting and praying, and imposing their hands upon them, sent them away.
3τοτε νηστευσαντεσ και προσευξαμενοι και επιθεντεσ τασ χειρασ αυτοισ απελυσαν
4So they being sent by the Holy Ghost, went to Seleucia: and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
4ουτοι μεν ουν εκπεμφθεντεσ υπο του πνευματοσ του αγιου κατηλθον εισ την σελευκειαν εκειθεν δε απεπλευσαν εισ την κυπρον
5And when they were come to Salamina, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John also in the ministry.
5και γενομενοι εν σαλαμινι κατηγγελλον τον λογον του θεου εν ταισ συναγωγαισ των ιουδαιων ειχον δε και ιωαννην υπηρετην
6And when they had gone through the whole island, as far as Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesu:
6διελθοντεσ δε την νησον αχρι παφου ευρον τινα μαγον ψευδοπροφητην ιουδαιον ω ονομα βαριησουσ
7Who was with the proconsul Sergius Paulus, a prudent man. He sending for Barnabas and Saul, desired to hear the word of God.
7οσ ην συν τω ανθυπατω σεργιω παυλω ανδρι συνετω ουτοσ προσκαλεσαμενοσ βαρναβαν και σαυλον επεζητησεν ακουσαι τον λογον του θεου
8But Elymas the magician (for so his name is interpreted) withstood them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith.
8ανθιστατο δε αυτοισ ελυμασ ο μαγοσ ουτωσ γαρ μεθερμηνευεται το ονομα αυτου ζητων διαστρεψαι τον ανθυπατον απο τησ πιστεωσ
9Then Saul, otherwise Paul, filled with the Holy Ghost, looking upon him,
9σαυλοσ δε ο και παυλοσ πλησθεισ πνευματοσ αγιου και ατενισασ εισ αυτον
10Said: O full of all guile, and of all deceit, child of the devil, enemy of all justice, thou ceasest not to pervert the right ways of the Lord.
10ειπεν ω πληρησ παντοσ δολου και πασησ ραδιουργιασ υιε διαβολου εχθρε πασησ δικαιοσυνησ ου παυση διαστρεφων τασ οδουσ κυριου τασ ευθειασ
11And now behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a time. And immediately there fell a mist and darkness upon him, and going about, he sought some one to lead him by the hand.
11και 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
12Then the proconsul, when he had seen what was done, believed, admiring at the doctrine of the Lord.
12τοτε ιδων ο ανθυπατοσ το γεγονοσ επιστευσεν εκπλησσομενοσ επι τη διδαχη του κυριου
13Now when Paul and they that were with him had sailed from Paphos, they came to Perge in Pamphylia. And John departing from them, returned to Jerusalem.
13αναχθεντεσ δε απο τησ παφου οι περι τον παυλον ηλθον εισ περγην τησ παμφυλιασ ιωαννησ δε αποχωρησασ απ αυτων υπεστρεψεν εισ ιεροσολυμα
14But they passing through Perge, came to Antioch in Pisidia: and entering into the synagogue on the sabbath day, they sat down.
14αυτοι δε διελθοντεσ απο τησ περγησ παρεγενοντο εισ αντιοχειαν τησ πισιδιασ και εισελθοντεσ εισ την συναγωγην τη ημερα των σαββατων εκαθισαν
15And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying: Ye men, brethren, if you have any word of exhortation to make to the people, speak.
15μετα 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
16Then Paul rising up, and with his hand bespeaking silence, said: Ye men of Israel, and you that fear God, give ear.
16αναστασ δε παυλοσ και κατασεισασ τη χειρι ειπεν ανδρεσ ισραηλιται και οι φοβουμενοι τον θεον ακουσατε
17The God of the people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they were sojourners in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought them out from thence,
17ο 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
18And for the space of forty years endured their manners in the desert.
18και ωσ τεσσαρακονταετη χρονον ετροποφορησεν αυτουσ εν τη ερημω
19And destroying seven nations in the land of Chanaan, divided their land among them, by lot,
19και καθελων εθνη επτα εν γη χανααν κατεκληρονομησεν αυτοισ την γην αυτων
20As it were, after four hundred and fifty years: and after these things, he gave unto them judges, until Samuel the prophet.
20και μετα ταυτα ωσ ετεσιν τετρακοσιοισ και πεντηκοντα εδωκεν κριτασ εωσ σαμουηλ του προφητου
21And after that they desired a king: and God gave them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, forty years.
21κακειθεν ητησαντο βασιλεα και εδωκεν αυτοισ ο θεοσ τον σαουλ υιον κισ ανδρα εκ φυλησ βενιαμιν ετη τεσσαρακοντα
22And when he had removed him, he raised them up David to be king: to whom giving testimony, he said: I have found David, the son of Jesse, a man according to my own heart, who shall do all my wills.
22και 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
23Of this man’s seed God according to his promise, hath raised up to Israel a Saviour, Jesus:
23τουτου ο θεοσ απο του σπερματοσ κατ επαγγελιαν ηγαγεν τω ισραηλ σωτηριαν
24John first preaching, before his coming, the baptism of penance to all the people of Israel.
24προκηρυξαντοσ ιωαννου προ προσωπου τησ εισοδου αυτου βαπτισμα μετανοιασ τω ισραηλ
25And when John was fulfilling his course, he said: I am not he, whom you think me to be: but behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.
25ωσ 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
26Men, brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you fear God, to you the word of this salvation is sent.
26ανδρεσ αδελφοι υιοι γενουσ αβρααμ και οι εν υμιν φοβουμενοι τον θεον υμιν ο λογοσ τησ σωτηριασ ταυτησ απεσταλη
27For they that inhabited Jerusalem, and the rulers thereof, not knowing him, nor the voices of the prophets, which are read every sabbath, judging him have fulfilled them.
27οι γαρ κατοικουντεσ εν ιερουσαλημ και οι αρχοντεσ αυτων τουτον αγνοησαντεσ και τασ φωνασ των προφητων τασ κατα παν σαββατον αναγινωσκομενασ κριναντεσ επληρωσαν
28And finding no cause of death in him, they desired of Pilate, that they might kill him.
28και μηδεμιαν αιτιαν θανατου ευροντεσ ητησαντο πιλατον αναιρεθηναι αυτον
29And when they had fulfilled all things that were written of him, taking him down from the tree, they laid him in a sepulchre.
29ωσ δε ετελεσαν παντα τα περι αυτου γεγραμμενα καθελοντεσ απο του ξυλου εθηκαν εισ μνημειον
30But God raised him up from the dead the third day:
30ο δε θεοσ ηγειρεν αυτον εκ νεκρων
31Who was seen for many days, by them who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who to this present are his witnesses to the people.
31οσ ωφθη επι ημερασ πλειουσ τοισ συναναβασιν αυτω απο τησ γαλιλαιασ εισ ιερουσαλημ οιτινεσ εισιν μαρτυρεσ αυτου προσ τον λαον
32And we declare unto you, that the promise which was made to our fathers,
32και ημεισ υμασ ευαγγελιζομεθα την προσ τουσ πατερασ επαγγελιαν γενομενην οτι ταυτην ο θεοσ εκπεπληρωκεν τοισ τεκνοισ αυτων ημιν αναστησασ ιησουν
33This same God hath fulfilled to our children, raising up Jesus, as in the second psalm also is written: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
33ωσ και εν τω ψαλμω τω δευτερω γεγραπται υιοσ μου ει συ εγω σημερον γεγεννηκα σε
34And to shew that he raised him up from the dead, not to return now any more to corruption, he said thus: I will give you the holy things of David faithful.
34οτι δε ανεστησεν αυτον εκ νεκρων μηκετι μελλοντα υποστρεφειν εισ διαφθοραν ουτωσ ειρηκεν οτι δωσω υμιν τα οσια δαυιδ τα πιστα
35And therefore, in another place also, he saith: Thou shalt not suffer thy holy one to see corruption.
35διο και εν ετερω λεγει ου δωσεισ τον οσιον σου ιδειν διαφθοραν
36For David, when he had served in his generation, according to the will of God, slept: and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption.
36δαυιδ μεν γαρ ιδια γενεα υπηρετησασ τη του θεου βουλη εκοιμηθη και προσετεθη προσ τουσ πατερασ αυτου και ειδεν διαφθοραν
37But he whom God hath raised from the dead, saw no corruption.
37ον δε ο θεοσ ηγειρεν ουκ ειδεν διαφθοραν
38Be it known therefore to you, men, brethren, that through him forgiveness of sins is preached to you: and from all the things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.
38γνωστον ουν εστω υμιν ανδρεσ αδελφοι οτι δια τουτου υμιν αφεσισ αμαρτιων καταγγελλεται
39In him every one that believeth, is justified.
39και απο παντων ων ουκ ηδυνηθητε εν τω νομω μωυσεωσ δικαιωθηναι εν τουτω πασ ο πιστευων δικαιουται
40Beware, therefore, lest that come upon you which is spoken in the prophets:
40βλεπετε ουν μη επελθη εφ υμασ το ειρημενον εν τοισ προφηταισ
41Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which you will not believe, if any man shall tell it you.
41ιδετε οι καταφρονηται και θαυμασατε και αφανισθητε οτι εργον εγω εργαζομαι εν ταισ ημεραισ υμων ο ου μη πιστευσητε εαν τισ εκδιηγηται υμιν
42And as they went out, they desired them, that on the next sabbath, they would speak unto them these words.
42εξιοντων δε εκ τησ συναγωγησ των ιουδαιων παρεκαλουν τα εθνη εισ το μεταξυ σαββατον λαληθηναι αυτοισ τα ρηματα
43And when the synagogue was broken up, many of the Jews, and of the strangers who served God, followed Paul and Barnabas: who speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
43λυθεισησ 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
44But the next sabbath day, the whole city almost came together, to hear the word of God.
44τω τε ερχομενω σαββατω σχεδον πασα η πολισ συνηχθη ακουσαι τον λογον του θεου
45And the Jews seeing the multitudes, were filled with envy, and contradicted those things which were said by Paul, blaspheming.
45ιδοντεσ δε οι ιουδαιοι τουσ οχλουσ επλησθησαν ζηλου και αντελεγον τοισ υπο του παυλου λεγομενοισ αντιλεγοντεσ και βλασφημουντεσ
46Then Paul and Barnabas said boldly: To you it behoved us first to speak the word of God: but because you reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold we turn to the Gentiles.
46παρρησιασαμενοι 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
47For so the Lord hath commanded us: I have set thee to be the light of the Gentiles; that thou mayest be for salvation unto the utmost part of the earth.
47ουτωσ γαρ εντεταλται ημιν ο κυριοσ τεθεικα σε εισ φωσ εθνων του ειναι σε εισ σωτηριαν εωσ εσχατου τησ γησ
48And the Gentiles hearing it, were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to life everlasting, believed.
48ακουοντα δε τα εθνη εχαιρεν και εδοξαζον τον λογον του κυριου και επιστευσαν οσοι ησαν τεταγμενοι εισ ζωην αιωνιον
49And the word of the Lord was published throughout the whole country.
49διεφερετο δε ο λογοσ του κυριου δι ολησ τησ χωρασ
50But the Jews stirred up religious and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas: and cast them out of their coasts.
50οι 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
51But they, shaking off the dust of their feet against them, came to Iconium.
51οι δε εκτιναξαμενοι τον κονιορτον των ποδων αυτων επ αυτουσ ηλθον εισ ικονιον
52And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Ghost.
52οι δε μαθηται επληρουντο χαρασ και πνευματοσ αγιου
