Berean Standard Bible
1ωσ δε εγενετο αναχθηναι ημασ αποσπασθεντασ απ αυτων ευθυδρομησαντεσ ηλθομεν εισ την κων τη δε εξησ εισ την ροδον κακειθεν εισ παταρα
1After we had torn ourselves away from them, we sailed directly to Cos, and the next day on to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.
2και ευροντεσ πλοιον διαπερων εισ φοινικην επιβαντεσ ανηχθημεν
2Finding a ship crossing over to Phoenicia, we boarded it and set sail.
3αναφανεντεσ δε την κυπρον και καταλιποντεσ αυτην ευωνυμον επλεομεν εισ συριαν και κατηχθημεν εισ τυρον εκεισε γαρ ην το πλοιον αποφορτιζομενον τον γομον
3After sighting Cyprus and passing south of it, we sailed on to Syria and landed at Tyre, where the ship was to unload its cargo.
4και ανευροντεσ μαθητασ επεμειναμεν αυτου ημερασ επτα οιτινεσ τω παυλω ελεγον δια του πνευματοσ μη αναβαινειν εισ ιερουσαλημ
4We sought out the disciples in Tyre and stayed with them seven days. Through the Spirit they kept telling Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
5οτε δε εγενετο ημασ εξαρτισαι τασ ημερασ εξελθοντεσ επορευομεθα προπεμποντων ημασ παντων συν γυναιξιν και τεκνοισ εωσ εξω τησ πολεωσ και θεντεσ τα γονατα επι τον αιγιαλον προσηυξαμεθα
5But when our time there had ended, we set out on our journey. All the disciples, with their wives and children, accompanied us out of the city and knelt down on the beach to pray with us.
6και ασπασαμενοι αλληλουσ επεβημεν εισ το πλοιον εκεινοι δε υπεστρεψαν εισ τα ιδια
6And after we had said our farewells, we went aboard the ship, and they returned home.
7ημεισ δε τον πλουν διανυσαντεσ απο τυρου κατηντησαμεν εισ πτολεμαιδα και ασπασαμενοι τουσ αδελφουσ εμειναμεν ημεραν μιαν παρ αυτοισ
7When we had finished our voyage from Tyre, we landed at Ptolemais, where we greeted the brothers and stayed with them for a day.
8τη δε επαυριον εξελθοντεσ οι περι τον παυλον ηλθον εισ καισαρειαν και εισελθοντεσ εισ τον οικον φιλιππου του ευαγγελιστου οντοσ εκ των επτα εμειναμεν παρ αυτω
8Leaving the next day, we went on to Caesarea and stayed at the home of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the Seven.
9τουτω δε ησαν θυγατερεσ παρθενοι τεσσαρεσ προφητευουσαι
9He had four unmarried daughters who prophesied.
10επιμενοντων δε ημων ημερασ πλειουσ κατηλθεν τισ απο τησ ιουδαιασ προφητησ ονοματι αγαβοσ
10After we had been there several days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.
11και ελθων προσ ημασ και αρασ την ζωνην του παυλου δησασ τε αυτου τουσ ποδασ και τασ χειρασ ειπεν ταδε λεγει το πνευμα το αγιον τον ανδρα ου εστιν η ζωνη αυτη ουτωσ δησουσιν εν ιερουσαλημ οι ιουδαιοι και παραδωσουσιν εισ χειρασ εθνων
11Coming over to us, he took Paul’s belt, bound his own feet and hands, and said, “The Holy Spirit says: ‘In this way the Jews of Jerusalem will bind the owner of this belt and hand him over to the Gentiles.’”
12ωσ δε ηκουσαμεν ταυτα παρεκαλουμεν ημεισ τε και οι εντοπιοι του μη αναβαινειν αυτον εισ ιερουσαλημ
12When we heard this, we and the people there pleaded with Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
13απεκριθη τε ο παυλοσ τι ποιειτε κλαιοντεσ και συνθρυπτοντεσ μου την καρδιαν εγω γαρ ου μονον δεθηναι αλλα και αποθανειν εισ ιερουσαλημ ετοιμωσ εχω υπερ του ονοματοσ του κυριου ιησου
13Then Paul answered, “Why are you weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.”
14μη πειθομενου δε αυτου ησυχασαμεν ειποντεσ το θελημα του κυριου γενεσθω
14When he would not be dissuaded, we fell silent and said, “The Lord’s will be done.”
15μετα δε τασ ημερασ ταυτασ επισκευασαμενοι ανεβαινομεν εισ ιερουσαλημ
15After these days, we packed up and went on to Jerusalem.
16συνηλθον δε και των μαθητων απο καισαρειασ συν ημιν αγοντεσ παρ ω ξενισθωμεν μνασωνι τινι κυπριω αρχαιω μαθητη
16Some of the disciples from Caesarea accompanied us, and they took us to stay at the home of Mnason the Cypriot, an early disciple.
17γενομενων δε ημων εισ ιεροσολυμα ασμενωσ εδεξαντο ημασ οι αδελφοι
17When we arrived in Jerusalem, the brothers welcomed us joyfully.
18τη δε επιουση εισηει ο παυλοσ συν ημιν προσ ιακωβον παντεσ τε παρεγενοντο οι πρεσβυτεροι
18The next day Paul went in with us to see James, and all the elders were present.
19και ασπασαμενοσ αυτουσ εξηγειτο καθ εν εκαστον ων εποιησεν ο θεοσ εν τοισ εθνεσιν δια τησ διακονιασ αυτου
19Paul greeted them and recounted one by one the things that God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.
20οι δε ακουσαντεσ εδοξαζον τον κυριον ειποντεσ αυτω θεωρεισ αδελφε ποσαι μυριαδεσ εισιν ιουδαιων των πεπιστευκοτων και παντεσ ζηλωται του νομου υπαρχουσιν
20When they heard this, they glorified God. Then they said to Paul, “You see, brother, how many thousands of Jews have believed, and all of them are zealous for the law.
21κατηχηθησαν δε περι σου οτι αποστασιαν διδασκεισ απο μωυσεωσ τουσ κατα τα εθνη παντασ ιουδαιουσ λεγων μη περιτεμνειν αυτουσ τα τεκνα μηδε τοισ εθεσιν περιπατειν
21But they are under the impression that you teach all the Jews who live among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children or observe our customs.
22τι ουν εστιν παντωσ δει πληθοσ συνελθειν ακουσονται γαρ οτι εληλυθασ
22What then should we do? They will certainly hear that you have come.
23τουτο ουν ποιησον ο σοι λεγομεν εισιν ημιν ανδρεσ τεσσαρεσ ευχην εχοντεσ εφ εαυτων
23Therefore do what we advise you. There are four men with us who have taken a vow.
24τουτουσ παραλαβων αγνισθητι συν αυτοισ και δαπανησον επ αυτοισ ινα ξυρησωνται την κεφαλην και γνωσιν παντεσ οτι ων κατηχηνται περι σου ουδεν εστιν αλλα στοιχεισ και αυτοσ τον νομον φυλασσων
24Take these men, purify yourself along with them, and pay their expenses so they can have their heads shaved. Then everyone will know that there is no truth to these rumors about you, but that you also live in obedience to the law.
25περι δε των πεπιστευκοτων εθνων ημεισ επεστειλαμεν κριναντεσ μηδεν τοιουτον τηρειν αυτουσ ει μη φυλασσεσθαι αυτουσ το τε ειδωλοθυτον και το αιμα και πνικτον και πορνειαν
25As for the Gentile believers, we have written to them our decision that they must abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality.”
26τοτε ο παυλοσ παραλαβων τουσ ανδρασ τη εχομενη ημερα συν αυτοισ αγνισθεισ εισηει εισ το ιερον διαγγελλων την εκπληρωσιν των ημερων του αγνισμου εωσ ου προσηνεχθη υπερ ενοσ εκαστου αυτων η προσφορα
26So the next day Paul took the men and purified himself along with them. Then he entered the temple to give notice of the date when their purification would be complete and the offering would be made for each of them.
27ωσ δε εμελλον αι επτα ημεραι συντελεισθαι οι απο τησ ασιασ ιουδαιοι θεασαμενοι αυτον εν τω ιερω συνεχεον παντα τον οχλον και επεβαλον τασ χειρασ επ αυτον
27When the seven days were almost over, some Jews from the province of Asia saw Paul at the temple. They stirred up the whole crowd and seized him,
28κραζοντεσ ανδρεσ ισραηλιται βοηθειτε ουτοσ εστιν ο ανθρωποσ ο κατα του λαου και του νομου και του τοπου τουτου παντασ πανταχου διδασκων ετι τε και ελληνασ εισηγαγεν εισ το ιερον και κεκοινωκεν τον αγιον τοπον τουτον
28crying out, “Men of Israel, help us! This is the man who teaches everywhere against our people and against our law and against this place. Furthermore, he has brought Greeks into the temple and defiled this holy place.”
29ησαν γαρ εωρακοτεσ τροφιμον τον εφεσιον εν τη πολει συν αυτω ον ενομιζον οτι εισ το ιερον εισηγαγεν ο παυλοσ
29For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, and they assumed that Paul had brought him into the temple.
30εκινηθη τε η πολισ ολη και εγενετο συνδρομη του λαου και επιλαβομενοι του παυλου ειλκον αυτον εξω του ιερου και ευθεωσ εκλεισθησαν αι θυραι
30The whole city was stirred up, and the people rushed together. They seized Paul and dragged him out of the temple, and at once the gates were shut.
31ζητουντων δε αυτον αποκτειναι ανεβη φασισ τω χιλιαρχω τησ σπειρησ οτι ολη συγκεχυται ιερουσαλημ
31While they were trying to kill him, the commander of the Roman regiment received a report that all Jerusalem was in turmoil.
32οσ εξαυτησ παραλαβων στρατιωτασ και εκατονταρχουσ κατεδραμεν επ αυτουσ οι δε ιδοντεσ τον χιλιαρχον και τουσ στρατιωτασ επαυσαντο τυπτοντεσ τον παυλον
32Immediately he took some soldiers and centurions and ran down to the crowd. When the people saw the commander and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.
33εγγισασ δε ο χιλιαρχοσ επελαβετο αυτου και εκελευσεν δεθηναι αλυσεσιν δυσιν και επυνθανετο τισ αν ειη και τι εστιν πεποιηκωσ
33The commander came up and arrested Paul, ordering that he be bound with two chains. Then he asked who he was and what he had done.
34αλλοι δε αλλο τι εβοων εν τω οχλω μη δυναμενοσ δε γνωναι το ασφαλεσ δια τον θορυβον εκελευσεν αγεσθαι αυτον εισ την παρεμβολην
34Some in the crowd were shouting one thing, and some another. And since the commander could not get at the truth because of the uproar, he ordered that Paul be brought into the barracks.
35οτε δε εγενετο επι τουσ αναβαθμουσ συνεβη βασταζεσθαι αυτον υπο των στρατιωτων δια την βιαν του οχλου
35When Paul reached the steps, he had to be carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the mob.
36ηκολουθει γαρ το πληθοσ του λαου κραζον αιρε αυτον
36For the crowd that followed him kept shouting, “Away with him!”
37μελλων τε εισαγεσθαι εισ την παρεμβολην ο παυλοσ λεγει τω χιλιαρχω ει εξεστιν μοι ειπειν προσ σε ο δε εφη ελληνιστι γινωσκεισ
37As they were about to take Paul into the barracks, he asked the commander, “May I say something to you?” “Do you speak Greek?” he replied.
38ουκ αρα συ ει ο αιγυπτιοσ ο προ τουτων των ημερων αναστατωσασ και εξαγαγων εισ την ερημον τουσ τετρακισχιλιουσ ανδρασ των σικαριων
38“Aren’t you the Egyptian who incited a rebellion some time ago and led four thousand members of the ‘Assassins’ into the wilderness?”
39ειπεν δε ο παυλοσ εγω ανθρωποσ μεν ειμι ιουδαιοσ ταρσευσ τησ κιλικιασ ουκ ασημου πολεωσ πολιτησ δεομαι δε σου επιτρεψον μοι λαλησαι προσ τον λαον
39But Paul answered, “I am a Jew from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no ordinary city. Now I beg you to allow me to speak to the people.”
40επιτρεψαντοσ δε αυτου ο παυλοσ εστωσ επι των αναβαθμων κατεσεισεν τη χειρι τω λαω πολλησ δε σιγησ γενομενησ προσεφωνει τη εβραιδι διαλεκτω λεγων
40Having received permission, Paul stood on the steps and motioned to the crowd. A great hush came over the crowd, and he addressed them in Hebrew:
