King James Version with Apocrypha
1εγενετο δε εν τω τον απολλω ειναι εν κορινθω παυλον διελθοντα τα ανωτερικα μερη ελθειν εισ εφεσον και ευρων τινασ μαθητασ
1And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,
2ειπεν προσ αυτουσ ει πνευμα αγιον ελαβετε πιστευσαντεσ οι δε ειπον προσ αυτον αλλ ουδε ει πνευμα αγιον εστιν ηκουσαμεν
2He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.
3ειπεν τε προσ αυτουσ εισ τι ουν εβαπτισθητε οι δε ειπον εισ το ιωαννου βαπτισμα
3And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John’s baptism.
4ειπεν δε παυλοσ ιωαννησ μεν εβαπτισεν βαπτισμα μετανοιασ τω λαω λεγων εισ τον ερχομενον μετ αυτον ινα πιστευσωσιν τουτ εστιν εισ τον χριστον ιησουν
4Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
5ακουσαντεσ δε εβαπτισθησαν εισ το ονομα του κυριου ιησου
5When they heard this , they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
6και επιθεντοσ αυτοισ του παυλου τασ χειρασ ηλθεν το πνευμα το αγιον επ αυτουσ ελαλουν τε γλωσσαισ και προεφητευον
6And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.
7ησαν δε οι παντεσ ανδρεσ ωσει δεκαδυο
7And all the men were about twelve.
8εισελθων δε εισ την συναγωγην επαρρησιαζετο επι μηνασ τρεισ διαλεγομενοσ και πειθων τα περι τησ βασιλειασ του θεου
8And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.
9ωσ δε τινεσ εσκληρυνοντο και ηπειθουν κακολογουντεσ την οδον ενωπιον του πληθουσ αποστασ απ αυτων αφωρισεν τουσ μαθητασ καθ ημεραν διαλεγομενοσ εν τη σχολη τυραννου τινοσ
9But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.
10τουτο δε εγενετο επι ετη δυο ωστε παντασ τουσ κατοικουντασ την ασιαν ακουσαι τον λογον του κυριου ιησου ιουδαιουσ τε και ελληνασ
10And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
11δυναμεισ τε ου τασ τυχουσασ εποιει ο θεοσ δια των χειρων παυλου
11And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:
12ωστε και επι τουσ ασθενουντασ επιφερεσθαι απο του χρωτοσ αυτου σουδαρια η σιμικινθια και απαλλασσεσθαι απ αυτων τασ νοσουσ τα τε πνευματα τα πονηρα εξερχεσθαι απ αυτων
12So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.
13επεχειρησαν δε τινεσ απο των περιερχομενων ιουδαιων εξορκιστων ονομαζειν επι τουσ εχοντασ τα πνευματα τα πονηρα το ονομα του κυριου ιησου λεγοντεσ ορκιζομεν υμασ τον ιησουν ον ο παυλοσ κηρυσσει
13¶ Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.
14ησαν δε τινεσ υιοι σκευα ιουδαιου αρχιερεωσ επτα οι τουτο ποιουντεσ
14And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.
15αποκριθεν δε το πνευμα το πονηρον ειπεν τον ιησουν γινωσκω και τον παυλον επισταμαι υμεισ δε τινεσ εστε
15And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
16και εφαλλομενοσ επ αυτουσ ο ανθρωποσ εν ω ην το πνευμα το πονηρον και κατακυριευσαν αυτων ισχυσεν κατ αυτων ωστε γυμνουσ και τετραυματισμενουσ εκφυγειν εκ του οικου εκεινου
16And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
17τουτο δε εγενετο γνωστον πασιν ιουδαιοισ τε και ελλησιν τοισ κατοικουσιν την εφεσον και επεπεσεν φοβοσ επι παντασ αυτουσ και εμεγαλυνετο το ονομα του κυριου ιησου
17And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
18πολλοι τε των πεπιστευκοτων ηρχοντο εξομολογουμενοι και αναγγελλοντεσ τασ πραξεισ αυτων
18And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds.
19ικανοι δε των τα περιεργα πραξαντων συνενεγκαντεσ τασ βιβλουσ κατεκαιον ενωπιον παντων και συνεψηφισαν τασ τιμασ αυτων και ευρον αργυριου μυριαδασ πεντε
19Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men : and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
20ουτωσ κατα κρατοσ ο λογοσ του κυριου ηυξανεν και ισχυεν
20So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.
21ωσ δε επληρωθη ταυτα εθετο ο παυλοσ εν τω πνευματι διελθων την μακεδονιαν και αχαιαν πορευεσθαι εισ ιερουσαλημ ειπων οτι μετα το γενεσθαι με εκει δει με και ρωμην ιδειν
21¶ After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.
22αποστειλασ δε εισ την μακεδονιαν δυο των διακονουντων αυτω τιμοθεον και εραστον αυτοσ επεσχεν χρονον εισ την ασιαν
22So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.
23εγενετο δε κατα τον καιρον εκεινον ταραχοσ ουκ ολιγοσ περι τησ οδου
23And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.
24δημητριοσ γαρ τισ ονοματι αργυροκοποσ ποιων ναουσ αργυρουσ αρτεμιδοσ παρειχετο τοισ τεχνιταισ εργασιαν ουκ ολιγην
24For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen;
25ουσ συναθροισασ και τουσ περι τα τοιαυτα εργατασ ειπεν ανδρεσ επιστασθε οτι εκ ταυτησ τησ εργασιασ η ευπορια ημων εστιν
25Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth.
26και θεωρειτε και ακουετε οτι ου μονον εφεσου αλλα σχεδον πασησ τησ ασιασ ο παυλοσ ουτοσ πεισασ μετεστησεν ικανον οχλον λεγων οτι ουκ εισιν θεοι οι δια χειρων γινομενοι
26Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands:
27ου μονον δε τουτο κινδυνευει ημιν το μεροσ εισ απελεγμον ελθειν αλλα και το τησ μεγαλησ θεασ ιερον αρτεμιδοσ εισ ουθεν λογισθηναι μελλειν δε και καθαιρεισθαι την μεγαλειοτητα αυτησ ην ολη η ασια και η οικουμενη σεβεται
27So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.
28ακουσαντεσ δε και γενομενοι πληρεισ θυμου εκραζον λεγοντεσ μεγαλη η αρτεμισ εφεσιων
28And when they heard these sayings , they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
29και επλησθη η πολισ ολη τησ συγχυσεωσ ωρμησαν τε ομοθυμαδον εισ το θεατρον συναρπασαντεσ γαιον και αρισταρχον μακεδονασ συνεκδημουσ παυλου
29And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions in travel, they rushed with one accord into the theatre.
30του δε παυλου βουλομενου εισελθειν εισ τον δημον ουκ ειων αυτον οι μαθηται
30And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.
31τινεσ δε και των ασιαρχων οντεσ αυτω φιλοι πεμψαντεσ προσ αυτον παρεκαλουν μη δουναι εαυτον εισ το θεατρον
31And certain of the chief of Asia, which were his friends, sent unto him, desiring him that he would not adventure himself into the theatre.
32αλλοι μεν ουν αλλο τι εκραζον ην γαρ η εκκλησια συγκεχυμενη και οι πλειουσ ουκ ηδεισαν τινοσ ενεκεν συνεληλυθεισαν
32Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together.
33εκ δε του οχλου προεβιβασαν αλεξανδρον προβαλοντων αυτον των ιουδαιων ο δε αλεξανδροσ κατασεισασ την χειρα ηθελεν απολογεισθαι τω δημω
33And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his defence unto the people.
34επιγνοντεσ δε οτι ιουδαιοσ εστιν φωνη εγενετο μια εκ παντων ωσ επι ωρασ δυο κραζοντων μεγαλη η αρτεμισ εφεσιων
34But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.
35καταστειλασ δε ο γραμματευσ τον οχλον φησιν ανδρεσ εφεσιοι τισ γαρ εστιν ανθρωποσ οσ ου γινωσκει την εφεσιων πολιν νεωκορον ουσαν τησ μεγαλησ θεασ αρτεμιδοσ και του διοπετουσ
35And when the townclerk had appeased the people, he said, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not how that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?
36αναντιρρητων ουν οντων τουτων δεον εστιν υμασ κατεσταλμενουσ υπαρχειν και μηδεν προπετεσ πρασσειν
36Seeing then that these things cannot be spoken against, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.
37ηγαγετε γαρ τουσ ανδρασ τουτουσ ουτε ιεροσυλουσ ουτε βλασφημουντασ την θεον υμων
37For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess.
38ει μεν ουν δημητριοσ και οι συν αυτω τεχνιται εχουσιν προσ τινα λογον αγοραιοι αγονται και ανθυπατοι εισιν εγκαλειτωσαν αλληλοισ
38Wherefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen which are with him, have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them implead one another.
39ει δε τι περι ετερων επιζητειτε εν τη εννομω εκκλησια επιλυθησεται
39But if ye enquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly.
40και γαρ κινδυνευομεν εγκαλεισθαι στασεωσ περι τησ σημερον μηδενοσ αιτιου υπαρχοντοσ περι ου ου δυνησομεθα δουναι λογον τησ συστροφησ ταυτησ
40For we are in danger to be called in question for this day’s uproar, there being no cause whereby we may give an account of this concourse.
41και ταυτα ειπων απελυσεν την εκκλησιαν
41And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
