Now [1161] when they had passed through [1353] [5660] Amphipolis [0295] and [2532] Apollonia [0624], they came [2064] [5627] to [1519] Thessalonica [2332], where [3699] was [2258] [5713] a synagogue [4864] of the Jews [2453]:

2

And [1161] Paul [3972], as [2596] his manner was [1486] [5756], went in [1525] [5627] unto [4314] them [0846], and [2532] [1909] three [5140] sabbath [4521] days reasoned [1256] [5711] with them [0846] out of [0575] the scriptures [1124],

3

Opening [1272] [5723] and [2532] alleging [3908] [5734], that [3754] Christ [5547] must needs [1163] [5713] have suffered [3958] [5629], and [2532] risen again [0450] [5629] from [1537] the dead [3498]; and [2532] that [3754] this [3778] Jesus [2424], whom [3739] I [1473] preach [2605] [5719] unto you [5213], is [2076] [5748] Christ [5547].

4

And [2532] some [5100] of [1537] them [0846] believed [3982] [5681], and [2532] consorted [4345] [5681] with Paul [3972] and [2532] Silas [4609]; and [5037] of the devout [4576] [5740] Greeks [1672] a great [4183] multitude [4128], and [5037] of the chief [4413] women [1135] not [3756] a few [3641].

5

But [1161] the Jews [2453] which believed not [0544] [5723], moved with envy [2206] [5660], [2532] took unto them [4355] [5642] certain [5100] lewd [4190] fellows [0435] of the baser sort [0060], and [2532] gathered a company [3792] [5660], and set all [2350] [0000] the city [4172] on an uproar [2350] [5707], and [5037] assaulted [2186] [5631] the house [3614] of Jason [2394], and sought [2212] [5707] to bring [0071] [5629] them [0846] out [1519] to the people [1218].

6

And [1161] when they found [2147] [5631] them [0846] not [3361], they drew [4951] [5707] Jason [2394] and [2532] certain [5100] brethren [0080] unto [1909] the rulers of the city [4173], crying [0994] [5723], [3754] These [3778] that have turned [0387] [0000] the world [3625] upside down [0387] [5660] are come [3918] [5748] hither [1759] also [2532];

7

Whom [3739] Jason [2394] hath received [5264] [5766]: and [2532] these [3778] all [3956] do [4238] [5719] contrary [0561] to the decrees [1378] of Caesar [2541], saying [3004] [5723] that there is [1511] [5750] another [2087] king [0935], [one] Jesus [2424].

8

And [1161] they troubled [5015] [5656] the people [3793] and [2532] the rulers of the city [4173], when they heard [0191] [5723] these things [5023].

9

And [2532] when they had taken [2983] [5631] security [2425] of [3844] Jason [2394], and [2532] of the other [3062], they let [0630] [0000] them [0846] go [0630] [5656].

10

And [1161] the brethren [0080] immediately [2112] sent away [1599] [5656] [5037] Paul [3972] and [2532] Silas [4609] by [1223] night [3571] unto [1519] Berea [0960]: who [3748] coming [3854] [5637] [thither] went [0549] [5713] into [1519] the synagogue [4864] of the Jews [2453].

11

1161 These [3778] were [2258] [5713] more noble [2104] than those in [1722] Thessalonica [2332], in that they [3748] received [1209] [5662] the word [3056] with [3326] all [3956] readiness of mind [4288], and searched [0350] [5723] the scriptures [1124] daily [2250] [2596], whether [1487] those things [5023] were [2192] [5722] so [3779].

12

Therefore [3767] [3303] many [4183] of [1537] them [0846] believed [4100] [5656]; also [2532] of honourable [2158] women [1135] which [3588] were Greeks [1674], and [2532] of men [0435], not [3756] a few [3641].

13

But [1161] when [5613] the Jews [2453] of [0575] Thessalonica [2332] had knowledge [1097] [5627] that [3754] [2532] the word [3056] of God [2316] was preached [2605] [5648] of [5259] Paul [3972] at [1722] Berea [0960], they came [2064] [5627] thither also [2546], and stirred up [4531] [5723] the people [3793].

14

And [1161] then [5119] immediately [2112] the brethren [0080] sent away [1821] [5656] Paul [3972] to go [4198] [5738] as it were [5613] to [1909] the sea [2281]: but [1161] [5037] Silas [4609] and [2532] Timotheus [5095] abode [5278] [0000] there [1563] still [5278] [5707].

15

And [1161] they that conducted [2525] [5723] Paul [3972] brought [0071] [5627] him [0846] unto [2193] Athens [0116]: and [2532] receiving [2983] [5631] a commandment [1785] unto [4314] Silas [4609] and [2532] Timotheus [5095] for to [2443] come [2064] [5632] to [4314] him [0846] with all speed [5613] [5033], they departed [1826] [5713].

16

Now [1161] while Paul [3972] waited for [1551] [5740] them [0846] at [1722] Athens [0116], his [0846] spirit [4151] was stirred [3947] [5712] in [1722] him [0846], when he saw [2334] [5723] the city [4172] wholly given [5607] [5752] to idolatry [2712].

17

Therefore [3767] [3303] disputed he [1256] [5711] in [1722] the synagogue [4864] with the Jews [2453], and [2532] with the devout persons [4576] [5740], and [2532] in [1722] the market [0058] daily [2596] [3956] [2250] with [4314] them that met with him [3909] [5723].

18

Then [1161] certain [5100] philosophers [5386] of the Epicureans [1946], and [2532] of the Stoicks [4770], encountered [4820] [5707] him [0846]. And [2532] some [5100] said [3004] [5707], What [5101] will [0302] [2309] [5722] this [3778] babbler [4691] say [3004] [5721]? [1161] other some, He seemeth [1380] [5719] to be [1511] [5750] a setter forth [2604] of strange [3581] gods [1140]: because [3754] he preached [2097] [5710] unto them [0846] Jesus [2424], and [2532] the resurrection [0386].

19

And [5037] they took [1949] [5637] him [0846], and brought him [0071] [5627] unto [1909] Areopagus [0697], saying [3004] [5723], May [1410] [5736] we know [1097] [5629] what [5101] this [3778] new [2537] doctrine [1322], whereof [5259] thou [4675] speakest [2980] [5746], [is]?

20

For [1063] thou bringest [1533] [5719] certain [5100] strange things [3579] [5723] to [1519] our [2257] ears [0189]: we would [1014] [5736] know [1097] [5629] therefore [3767] what [5101] these things [5023] mean [0302] [2309] [5722] [1511] [5750].

21

(For [1161] all [3956] the Athenians [0117] and [2532] strangers [3581] which [3588] were there [1927] [5723] spent their time [2119] [5707] in [1519] nothing [3762] else [2087], but either [2228] to tell [3004] [5721], or [2532] to hear [0191] [5721] some [5100] new thing [2537])

22

Then [1161] Paul [3972] stood [2476] [5685] in [1722] the midst [3319] of Mars' hill [0697], and said [5346] [5713], [Ye] men [0435] of Athens [0117], I perceive [2334] [5719] that [5613] in [2596] all things [3956] ye [5209] are too superstitious [1174].

23

For [1063] as I passed by [1330] [5740], and [2532] beheld [0333] [5723] your [5216] devotions [4574], [2532] I found [2147] [5627] an altar [1041] with this [1722] [3739] inscription [1924] [5718], TO THE UNKNOWN [0057] GOD [2316]. Whom [3739] therefore [3767] ye ignorantly [0050] [5723] worship [2151] [5719], him [5126] declare [2605] [5719] I [1473] unto you [5213].

24

God [2316] that made [4160] [5660] the world [2889] and [2532] all things [3956] therein [1722] [0846], seeing that he [3778] is [5225] [5723] Lord [2962] of heaven [3772] and [2532] earth [1093], dwelleth [2730] [5719] not [3756] in [1722] temples [3485] made with hands [5499];

25

Neither [3761] is worshipped [2323] [5743] with [5259] men's [0444] hands [5495], as though he needed [4326] [5740] any thing [5100], seeing he [0846] giveth [1325] [5723] to all [3956] life [2222], and [2532] breath [4157], and [2596] all things [3956];

26

And [5037] hath made [4160] [5656] of [1537] one [1520] blood [0129] all [3956] nations [1484] of men [0444] for to dwell [2730] [5721] on [1909] all [3956] the face [4383] of the earth [1093], and hath determined [3724] [5660] the times [2540] before appointed [4384] [5772], and [2532] the bounds [3734] of their [0846] habitation [2733];

27

That they should seek [2212] [5721] the Lord [2962], if [1487] haply [0686] they might feel [5584] [5659] after him [0846], and [2532] find him [2147] [5630], though [2544] he be [5225] [5723] not [3756] far [3112] from [0575] every [1538] one [1520] of us [2257]:

28

For [1063] in [1722] him [0846] we live [2198] [5719], and [2532] move [2795] [5743], and [2532] have our being [2070] [5748]; as [5613] certain [5100] also [2532] of your [5209] own [2596] poets [4163] have said [2046] [5758], For [1063] we are [2070] [5748] also [2532] his [5120] offspring [1085].

29

Forasmuch then [3767] as we are [5225] [5723] the offspring [1085] of God [2316], we ought [3784] [5719] not [3756] to think [3543] [5721] that the Godhead [2304] is [1511] [5750] like [3664] unto gold [5557], or [2228] silver [0696], or [2228] stone [3037], graven [5480] by art [5078] and [2532] man's [0444] device [1761].

30

And [3303] [3767] the times [5550] of this ignorance [0052] God [2316] winked at [5237] [5660]; but now [3569] commandeth [3853] [5719] all [3956] men [0444] every where [3837] to repent [3340] [5721]:

31

Because [1360] he hath appointed [2476] [5656] a day [2250], in [1722] the which [3739] he will [3195] [5719] judge [2919] [5721] the world [3625] in [1722] righteousness [1343] by [1722] [that] man [0435] whom [3739] he hath ordained [3724] [5656]; [whereof] he hath given [3930] [5631] assurance [4102] unto all [3956] [men], in that he hath raised [0450] [5660] him [0846] from [1537] the dead [3498].

32

And [1161] when they heard [0191] [5660] of the resurrection [0386] of the dead [3498], some [3303] mocked [5512] [5707]: and [1161] others said [2036] [5627], We will hear [0191] [5695] thee [4675] again [3825] of [4012] this [5127] [matter].

33

So [2532] [3779] Paul [3972] departed [1831] [5627] from [1537] among [3319] them [0846].

34

Howbeit [1161] certain [5100] men [0435] clave [2853] [5685] unto him [0846], and believed [4100] [5656]: among [1722] the which [3739] [2532] [was] Dionysius [1354] the Areopagite [0698], and [2532] a woman [1135] named [3686] Damaris [1152], and [2532] others [2087] with [4862] them [0846].
