Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1The first book I wrote, Theophilus, concerned all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,
1τον μεν πρωτον λογον εποιησαμην περι παντων ω θεοφιλε ων ηρξατο ο ιησουσ ποιειν τε και διδασκειν
2until the day in which he was received up, after he had given commandment through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.
2αχρι ησ ημερασ εντειλαμενοσ τοισ αποστολοισ δια πνευματοσ αγιου ουσ εξελεξατο ανεληφθη
3To these he also showed himself alive after he suffered, by many proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking about God’s Kingdom.
3οισ και παρεστησεν εαυτον ζωντα μετα το παθειν αυτον εν πολλοισ τεκμηριοισ δι ημερων τεσσαρακοντα οπτανομενοσ αυτοισ και λεγων τα περι τησ βασιλειασ του θεου
4Being assembled together with them, he commanded them, “Don’t depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which you heard from me.
4και συναλιζομενοσ παρηγγειλεν αυτοισ απο ιεροσολυμων μη χωριζεσθαι αλλα περιμενειν την επαγγελιαν του πατροσ ην ηκουσατε μου
5For John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”
5οτι ιωαννησ μεν εβαπτισεν υδατι υμεισ δε βαπτισθησεσθε εν πνευματι αγιω ου μετα πολλασ ταυτασ ημερασ
6Therefore, when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, are you now restoring the kingdom to Israel?”
6οι μεν ουν συνελθοντεσ επηρωτων αυτον λεγοντεσ κυριε ει εν τω χρονω τουτω αποκαθιστανεισ την βασιλειαν τω ισραηλ
7He said to them, “It isn’t for you to know times or seasons which the Father has set within his own authority.
7ειπεν δε προσ αυτουσ ουχ υμων εστιν γνωναι χρονουσ η καιρουσ ουσ ο πατηρ εθετο εν τη ιδια εξουσια
8But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.”
8αλλα ληψεσθε δυναμιν επελθοντοσ του αγιου πνευματοσ εφ υμασ και εσεσθε μοι μαρτυρεσ εν τε ιερουσαλημ και εν παση τη ιουδαια και σαμαρεια και εωσ εσχατου τησ γησ
9When he had said these things, as they were looking, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight.
9και ταυτα ειπων βλεποντων αυτων επηρθη και νεφελη υπελαβεν αυτον απο των οφθαλμων αυτων
10While they were looking steadfastly into the sky as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white clothing,
10και ωσ ατενιζοντεσ ησαν εισ τον ουρανον πορευομενου αυτου και ιδου ανδρεσ δυο παρειστηκεισαν αυτοισ εν εσθητι λευκη
11who also said, “You men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who was received up from you into the sky, will come back in the same way as you saw him going into the sky.”
11οι και ειπον ανδρεσ γαλιλαιοι τι εστηκατε εμβλεποντεσ εισ τον ουρανον ουτοσ ο ιησουσ ο αναληφθεισ αφ υμων εισ τον ουρανον ουτωσ ελευσεται ον τροπον εθεασασθε αυτον πορευομενον εισ τον ουρανον
12Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day’s journey away.
12τοτε υπεστρεψαν εισ ιερουσαλημ απο ορουσ του καλουμενου ελαιωνοσ ο εστιν εγγυσ ιερουσαλημ σαββατου εχον οδον
13When they had come in, they went up into the upper room where they were staying, that is Peter, John, James, Andrew, Philip, Thomas, Bartholomew, Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.
13και οτε εισηλθον ανεβησαν εισ το υπερωον ου ησαν καταμενοντεσ ο τε πετροσ και ιακωβοσ και ιωαννησ και ανδρεασ φιλιπποσ και θωμασ βαρθολομαιοσ και ματθαιοσ ιακωβοσ αλφαιου και σιμων ο ζηλωτησ και ιουδασ ιακωβου
14All these with one accord continued steadfastly in prayer and supplication, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
14ουτοι παντεσ ησαν προσκαρτερουντεσ ομοθυμαδον τη προσευχη και τη δεησει συν γυναιξιν και μαρια τη μητρι του ιησου και συν τοισ αδελφοισ αυτου
15In these days, Peter stood up in the middle of the disciples (and the number of names was about one hundred twenty), and said,
15και εν ταισ ημεραισ ταυταισ αναστασ πετροσ εν μεσω των μαθητων ειπεν ην τε οχλοσ ονοματων επι το αυτο ωσ εκατον εικοσι
16“Brothers, it was necessary that this Scripture should be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who was guide to those who took Jesus.
16ανδρεσ αδελφοι εδει πληρωθηναι την γραφην ταυτην ην προειπεν το πνευμα το αγιον δια στοματοσ δαυιδ περι ιουδα του γενομενου οδηγου τοισ συλλαβουσιν τον ιησουν
17For he was counted with us, and received his portion in this ministry.
17οτι κατηριθμημενοσ ην συν ημιν και ελαχεν τον κληρον τησ διακονιασ ταυτησ
18Now this man obtained a field with the reward for his wickedness; and falling headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines gushed out.
18ουτοσ μεν ουν εκτησατο χωριον εκ μισθου τησ αδικιασ και πρηνησ γενομενοσ ελακησεν μεσοσ και εξεχυθη παντα τα σπλαγχνα αυτου
19It became known to everyone who lived in Jerusalem that in their language that field was called ‘Akeldama,’ that is, ‘The field of blood.’
19και γνωστον εγενετο πασιν τοισ κατοικουσιν ιερουσαλημ ωστε κληθηναι το χωριον εκεινο τη ιδια διαλεκτω αυτων ακελδαμα τουτ εστιν χωριον αιματοσ
20For it is written in the book of Psalms, ‘Let his habitation be made desolate. Let no one dwell in it;’ and, ‘Let another take his office.’
20γεγραπται γαρ εν βιβλω ψαλμων γενηθητω η επαυλισ αυτου ερημοσ και μη εστω ο κατοικων εν αυτη και την επισκοπην αυτου λαβοι ετεροσ
21“Of the men therefore who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
21δει ουν των συνελθοντων ημιν ανδρων εν παντι χρονω εν ω εισηλθεν και εξηλθεν εφ ημασ ο κυριοσ ιησουσ
22beginning from the baptism of John to the day that he was received up from us, of these one must become a witness with us of his resurrection.”
22αρξαμενοσ απο του βαπτισματοσ ιωαννου εωσ τησ ημερασ ησ ανεληφθη αφ ημων μαρτυρα τησ αναστασεωσ αυτου γενεσθαι συν ημιν ενα τουτων
23They put forward two: Joseph called Barsabbas, who was also called Justus, and Matthias.
23και εστησαν δυο ιωσηφ τον καλουμενον βαρσαβαν οσ επεκληθη ιουστοσ και ματθιαν
24They prayed and said, “You, Lord, who know the hearts of all men, show which one of these two you have chosen
24και προσευξαμενοι ειπον συ κυριε καρδιογνωστα παντων αναδειξον ον εξελεξω εκ τουτων των δυο ενα
25to take part in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas fell away, that he might go to his own place.”
25λαβειν τον κληρον τησ διακονιασ ταυτησ και αποστολησ εξ ησ παρεβη ιουδασ πορευθηναι εισ τον τοπον τον ιδιον
26They drew lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias; and he was counted with the eleven apostles.
26και εδωκαν κληρουσ αυτων και επεσεν ο κληροσ επι ματθιαν και συγκατεψηφισθη μετα των ενδεκα αποστολων
