Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1Now when the day of Pentecost had come, they were all with one accord in one place.
1και εν τω συμπληρουσθαι την ημεραν τησ πεντηκοστησ ησαν απαντεσ ομοθυμαδον επι το αυτο
2Suddenly there came from the sky a sound like the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
2και εγενετο αφνω εκ του ουρανου ηχοσ ωσπερ φερομενησ πνοησ βιαιασ και επληρωσεν ολον τον οικον ου ησαν καθημενοι
3Tongues like fire appeared and were distributed to them, and one sat on each of them.
3και ωφθησαν αυτοισ διαμεριζομεναι γλωσσαι ωσει πυροσ εκαθισεν τε εφ ενα εκαστον αυτων
4They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other languages, as the Spirit gave them the ability to speak.
4και επλησθησαν απαντεσ πνευματοσ αγιου και ηρξαντο λαλειν ετεραισ γλωσσαισ καθωσ το πνευμα εδιδου αυτοισ αποφθεγγεσθαι
5Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under the sky.
5ησαν δε εν ιερουσαλημ κατοικουντεσ ιουδαιοι ανδρεσ ευλαβεισ απο παντοσ εθνουσ των υπο τον ουρανον
6When this sound was heard, the multitude came together and were bewildered, because everyone heard them speaking in his own language.
6γενομενησ δε τησ φωνησ ταυτησ συνηλθεν το πληθοσ και συνεχυθη οτι ηκουον εισ εκαστοσ τη ιδια διαλεκτω λαλουντων αυτων
7They were all amazed and marveled, saying to one another, “Behold, aren’t all these who speak Galileans?
7εξισταντο δε παντεσ και εθαυμαζον λεγοντεσ προσ αλληλουσ ουκ ιδου παντεσ ουτοι εισιν οι λαλουντεσ γαλιλαιοι
8How do we hear, everyone in our own native language?
8και πωσ ημεισ ακουομεν εκαστοσ τη ιδια διαλεκτω ημων εν η εγεννηθημεν
9Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and people from Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus, Asia,
9παρθοι και μηδοι και ελαμιται και οι κατοικουντεσ την μεσοποταμιαν ιουδαιαν τε και καππαδοκιαν ποντον και την ασιαν
10Phrygia, Pamphylia, Egypt, the parts of Libya around Cyrene, visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,
10φρυγιαν τε και παμφυλιαν αιγυπτον και τα μερη τησ λιβυησ τησ κατα κυρηνην και οι επιδημουντεσ ρωμαιοι ιουδαιοι τε και προσηλυτοι
11Cretans and Arabians—we hear them speaking in our languages the mighty works of God!”
11κρητεσ και αραβεσ ακουομεν λαλουντων αυτων ταισ ημετεραισ γλωσσαισ τα μεγαλεια του θεου
12They were all amazed and were perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?”
12εξισταντο δε παντεσ και διηπορουν αλλοσ προσ αλλον λεγοντεσ τι αν θελοι τουτο ειναι
13Others, mocking, said, “They are filled with new wine.”
13ετεροι δε χλευαζοντεσ ελεγον οτι γλευκουσ μεμεστωμενοι εισιν
14But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice and spoke out to them, “You men of Judea and all you who dwell at Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen to my words.
14σταθεισ δε πετροσ συν τοισ ενδεκα επηρεν την φωνην αυτου και απεφθεγξατο αυτοισ ανδρεσ ιουδαιοι και οι κατοικουντεσ ιερουσαλημ απαντεσ τουτο υμιν γνωστον εστω και ενωτισασθε τα ρηματα μου
15For these aren’t drunken, as you suppose, seeing it is only the third hour of the day.
15ου γαρ ωσ υμεισ υπολαμβανετε ουτοι μεθυουσιν εστιν γαρ ωρα τριτη τησ ημερασ
16But this is what has been spoken through the prophet Joel:
16αλλα τουτο εστιν το ειρημενον δια του προφητου ιωηλ
17‘It will be in the last days, says God, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh. Your sons and your daughters will prophesy. Your young men will see visions. Your old men will dream dreams.
17και εσται εν ταισ εσχαταισ ημεραισ λεγει ο θεοσ εκχεω απο του πνευματοσ μου επι πασαν σαρκα και προφητευσουσιν οι υιοι υμων και αι θυγατερεσ υμων και οι νεανισκοι υμων ορασεισ οψονται και οι πρεσβυτεροι υμων ενυπνια ενυπνιασθησονται
18Yes, and on my servants and on my handmaidens in those days, I will pour out my Spirit, and they will prophesy.
18και γε επι τουσ δουλουσ μου και επι τασ δουλασ μου εν ταισ ημεραισ εκειναισ εκχεω απο του πνευματοσ μου και προφητευσουσιν
19I will show wonders in the sky above, and signs on the earth beneath: blood, and fire, and billows of smoke.
19και δωσω τερατα εν τω ουρανω ανω και σημεια επι τησ γησ κατω αιμα και πυρ και ατμιδα καπνου
20The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and glorious day of the Lord comes.
20ο ηλιοσ μεταστραφησεται εισ σκοτοσ και η σεληνη εισ αιμα πριν η ελθειν την ημεραν κυριου την μεγαλην και επιφανη
21It will be that whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.’
21και εσται πασ οσ αν επικαλεσηται το ονομα κυριου σωθησεται
22“Men of Israel, hear these words! Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved by God to you by mighty works and wonders and signs which God did by him among you, even as you yourselves know,
22ανδρεσ ισραηλιται ακουσατε τουσ λογουσ τουτουσ ιησουν τον ναζωραιον ανδρα απο του θεου αποδεδειγμενον εισ υμασ δυναμεσιν και τερασιν και σημειοισ οισ εποιησεν δι αυτου ο θεοσ εν μεσω υμων καθωσ και αυτοι οιδατε
23him, being delivered up by the determined counsel and foreknowledge of God, you have taken by the hand of lawless men, crucified and killed;
23τουτον τη ωρισμενη βουλη και προγνωσει του θεου εκδοτον λαβοντεσ δια χειρων ανομων προσπηξαντεσ ανειλετε
24whom God raised up, having freed him from the agony of death, because it was not possible that he should be held by it.
24ον ο θεοσ ανεστησεν λυσασ τασ ωδινασ του θανατου καθοτι ουκ ην δυνατον κρατεισθαι αυτον υπ αυτου
25For David says concerning him, ‘I saw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved.
25δαυιδ γαρ λεγει εισ αυτον προωρωμην τον κυριον ενωπιον μου δια παντοσ οτι εκ δεξιων μου εστιν ινα μη σαλευθω
26Therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced. Moreover my flesh also will dwell in hope,
26δια τουτο ευφρανθη η καρδια μου και ηγαλλιασατο η γλωσσα μου ετι δε και η σαρξ μου κατασκηνωσει επ ελπιδι
27because you will not leave my soul in Hades, neither will you allow your Holy One to see decay.
27οτι ουκ εγκαταλειψεισ την ψυχην μου εισ αδου ουδε δωσεισ τον οσιον σου ιδειν διαφθοραν
28You made known to me the ways of life. You will make me full of gladness with your presence.’
28εγνωρισασ μοι οδουσ ζωησ πληρωσεισ με ευφροσυνησ μετα του προσωπου σου
29“Brothers, I may tell you freely of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.
29ανδρεσ αδελφοι εξον ειπειν μετα παρρησιασ προσ υμασ περι του πατριαρχου δαυιδ οτι και ετελευτησεν και εταφη και το μνημα αυτου εστιν εν ημιν αχρι τησ ημερασ ταυτησ
30Therefore, being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that of the fruit of his body, according to the flesh, he would raise up the Christ to sit on his throne,
30προφητησ ουν υπαρχων και ειδωσ οτι ορκω ωμοσεν αυτω ο θεοσ εκ καρπου τησ οσφυοσ αυτου το κατα σαρκα αναστησειν τον χριστον καθισαι επι του θρονου αυτου
31he foreseeing this, spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that his soul wasn’t left in Hades, and his flesh didn’t see decay.
31προιδων ελαλησεν περι τησ αναστασεωσ του χριστου οτι ου κατελειφθη η ψυχη αυτου εισ αδου ουδε η σαρξ αυτου ειδεν διαφθοραν
32This Jesus God raised up, to which we all are witnesses.
32τουτον τον ιησουν ανεστησεν ο θεοσ ου παντεσ ημεισ εσμεν μαρτυρεσ
33Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this which you now see and hear.
33τη δεξια ουν του θεου υψωθεισ την τε επαγγελιαν του αγιου πνευματοσ λαβων παρα του πατροσ εξεχεεν τουτο ο νυν υμεισ βλεπετε και ακουετε
34For David didn’t ascend into the heavens, but he says himself, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit by my right hand
34ου γαρ δαυιδ ανεβη εισ τουσ ουρανουσ λεγει δε αυτοσ ειπεν ο κυριοσ τω κυριω μου καθου εκ δεξιων μου
35until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.”’
35εωσ αν θω τουσ εχθρουσ σου υποποδιον των ποδων σου
36“Let all the house of Israel therefore know certainly that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified.”
36ασφαλωσ ουν γινωσκετω πασ οικοσ ισραηλ οτι και κυριον και χριστον αυτον ο θεοσ εποιησεν τουτον τον ιησουν ον υμεισ εσταυρωσατε
37Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?”
37ακουσαντεσ δε κατενυγησαν τη καρδια ειπον τε προσ τον πετρον και τουσ λοιπουσ αποστολουσ τι ποιησομεν ανδρεσ αδελφοι
38Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
38πετροσ δε εφη προσ αυτουσ μετανοησατε και βαπτισθητω εκαστοσ υμων επι τω ονοματι ιησου χριστου εισ αφεσιν αμαρτιων και ληψεσθε την δωρεαν του αγιου πνευματοσ
39For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are far off, even as many as the Lord our God will call to himself.”
39υμιν γαρ εστιν η επαγγελια και τοισ τεκνοισ υμων και πασιν τοισ εισ μακραν οσουσ αν προσκαλεσηται κυριοσ ο θεοσ ημων
40With many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation!”
40ετεροισ τε λογοισ πλειοσιν διεμαρτυρετο και παρεκαλει λεγων σωθητε απο τησ γενεασ τησ σκολιασ ταυτησ
41Then those who gladly received his word were baptized. There were added that day about three thousand souls.
41οι μεν ουν ασμενωσ αποδεξαμενοι τον λογον αυτου εβαπτισθησαν και προσετεθησαν τη ημερα εκεινη ψυχαι ωσει τρισχιλιαι
42They continued steadfastly in the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and prayer.
42ησαν δε προσκαρτερουντεσ τη διδαχη των αποστολων και τη κοινωνια και τη κλασει του αρτου και ταισ προσευχαισ
43Fear came on every soul, and many wonders and signs were done through the apostles.
43εγενετο δε παση ψυχη φοβοσ πολλα τε τερατα και σημεια δια των αποστολων εγινετο
44All who believed were together, and had all things in common.
44παντεσ δε οι πιστευοντεσ ησαν επι το αυτο και ειχον απαντα κοινα
45They sold their possessions and goods, and distributed them to all, according as anyone had need.
45και τα κτηματα και τασ υπαρξεισ επιπρασκον και διεμεριζον αυτα πασιν καθοτι αν τισ χρειαν ειχεν
46Day by day, continuing steadfastly with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread at home, they took their food with gladness and singleness of heart,
46καθ ημεραν τε προσκαρτερουντεσ ομοθυμαδον εν τω ιερω κλωντεσ τε κατ οικον αρτον μετελαμβανον τροφησ εν αγαλλιασει και αφελοτητι καρδιασ
47praising God and having favor with all the people. The Lord added to the assembly day by day those who were being saved.
47αινουντεσ τον θεον και εχοντεσ χαριν προσ ολον τον λαον ο δε κυριοσ προσετιθει τουσ σωζομενουσ καθ ημεραν τη εκκλησια
