KJV_Strong : Acts 13
1. Now[G1161] there were[G2258] in[G2596] the[G3588] church[G1577] that was[G5607] at[G1722] Antioch[G490] certain[G5100] prophets[G4396] and[G2532] teachers;[G1320] as[G5037] [G3739] Barnabas,[G921] and[G2532] Simeon[G4826] that was called[G2564] Niger,[G3526] and[G2532] Lucius[G3066] of Cyrene,[G2956] and[G5037] Manaen,[G3127] which had been brought up with[G4939] Herod[G2264] the[G3588] tetrarch,[G5076] and[G2532] Saul.[G4569]
2. As[G1161] they[G846] ministered[G3008] to the[G3588] Lord,[G2962] and[G2532] fasted,[G3522] the[G3588] Holy[G40] Ghost[G4151] said,[G2036] Separate[G873] [G1211] me[G3427] [G5037] Barnabas[G921] and[G2532] Saul[G4569] for[G1519] the[G3588] work[G2041] whereunto[G3739] I have called[G4341] them.[G846]
3. And when[G5119] they had fasted[G3522] and[G2532] prayed,[G4336] and[G2532] laid[G2007] their hands[G5495] on them,[G846] they sent them away.[G630]
4. So[G3767] they,[G3778] being[G3303] sent forth[G1599] by[G5259] the[G3588] Holy[G40] Ghost,[G4151] departed[G2718] unto[G1519] Seleucia;[G4581] and[G5037] from thence[G1564] they sailed[G636] to[G1519] Cyprus.[G2954]
5. And[G2532] when they were[G1096] at[G1722] Salamis,[G4529] they preached[G2605] the[G3588] word[G3056] of God[G2316] in[G1722] the[G3588] synagogues[G4864] of the[G3588] Jews:[G2453] and[G1161] they had[G2192] also[G2532] John[G2491] to their minister.[G5257]
6. And[G1161] when they had gone through[G1330] the[G3588] isle[G3520] unto[G891] Paphos,[G3974] they found[G2147] a certain[G5100] sorcerer,[G3097] a false prophet,[G5578] a Jew,[G2453] whose[G3739] name[G3686] was Barjesus: [G919]
7. Which[G3739] was[G2258] with[G4862] the[G3588] deputy of the country,[G446] Sergius[G4588] Paulus,[G3972] a prudent[G4908] man;[G435] who[G3778] called for[G4341] Barnabas[G921] and[G2532] Saul,[G4569] and desired[G1934] to hear[G191] the[G3588] word[G3056] of God.[G2316]
8. But[G1161] Elymas[G1681] the[G3588] sorcerer[G3097] (for[G1063] so[G3779] is his name by interpretation)[G3177] [G846] [G3686] withstood[G436] them,[G846] seeking[G2212] to turn away[G1294] the[G3588] deputy[G446] from[G575] the[G3588] faith.[G4102]
9. Then[G1161] Saul,[G4569] (who[G3588] also[G2532] is called Paul,)[G3972] filled[G4130] with the Holy[G40] Ghost,[G4151] [G2532] set his eyes[G816] on[G1519] him,[G846]
10. And said,[G2036] O[G5599] full[G4134] of all[G3956] subtlety[G1388] and[G2532] all[G3956] mischief,[G4468] thou child[G5207] of the devil,[G1228] thou enemy[G2190] of all[G3956] righteousness,[G1343] wilt thou not[G3756] cease[G3973] to pervert[G1294] the[G3588] right[G2117] ways[G3598] of the Lord?[G2962]
11. And[G2532] now,[G3568] behold,[G2400] the hand[G5495] of the[G3588] Lord[G2962] is upon[G1909] thee,[G4571] and[G2532] thou shalt be[G2071] blind,[G5185] not[G3361] seeing[G991] the[G3588] sun[G2246] for[G891] a season.[G2540] And[G1161] immediately[G3916] there fell[G1968] on[G1909] him[G846] a mist[G887] and[G2532] a darkness;[G4655] and[G2532] he went about[G4013] seeking[G2212] some to lead him by the hand.[G5497]
12. Then[G5119] the[G3588] deputy,[G446] when he saw[G1492] what was done,[G1096] believed,[G4100] being astonished[G1605] at[G1909] the[G3588] doctrine[G1322] of the[G3588] Lord.[G2962]
13. Now[G1161] when Paul[G3972] and his company[G4012] loosed[G321] from[G575] Paphos,[G3974] they came[G2064] to[G1519] Perga[G4011] in Pamphylia:[G3828] and[G1161] John[G2491] departing[G672] from[G575] them[G846] returned[G5290] to[G1519] Jerusalem.[G2414]
14. But[G1161] when they[G846] departed[G1330] from[G575] Perga,[G4011] they came[G3854] to[G1519] Antioch[G490] in Pisidia,[G4099] and[G2532] went[G1525] into[G1519] the[G3588] synagogue[G4864] on the[G3588] sabbath[G4521] day,[G2250] and sat down.[G2523]
15. And[G1161] after[G3326] the[G3588] reading[G320] of the[G3588] law[G3551] and[G2532] the[G3588] prophets[G4396] the[G3588] rulers of the synagogue[G752] sent[G649] unto[G4314] them,[G846] saying,[G3004] Ye men[G435] and brethren,[G80] if[G1487] ye have[G2076] [G1722] [G5213] any word[G3056] of exhortation[G3874] for[G4314] the[G3588] people,[G2992] say on.[G3004]
16. Then[G1161] Paul[G3972] stood up,[G450] and[G2532] beckoning[G2678] with his hand[G5495] said,[G2036] Men[G435] of Israel,[G2475] and[G2532] ye that fear[G5399] God,[G2316] give audience.[G191]
17. The[G3588] God[G2316] of this[G5127] people[G2992] of Israel[G2474] chose[G1586] our[G2257] fathers,[G3962] and[G2532] exalted[G5312] the[G3588] people[G2992] when[G1722] they dwelt as strangers[G3940] in[G1722] the land[G1093] of Egypt,[G125] and[G2532] with[G3326] a high[G5308] arm[G1023] brought[G1806] he them[G846] out of[G1537] it.[G846]
18. And[G2532] about[G5613] the time[G5550] of forty years[G5063] suffered he their manners[G5159] [G846] in[G1722] the[G3588] wilderness.[G2048]
19. And[G2532] when he had destroyed[G2507] seven[G2033] nations[G1484] in[G1722] the land[G1093] of Canaan,[G5477] he divided their land to them by lot.[G2624] [G846] [G1093] [G846]
20. And[G2532] after[G3326] that[G5023] he gave[G1325] unto them judges[G2923] about the space of[G5613] four hundred[G5071] and[G2532] fifty[G4004] years,[G2094] until[G2193] Samuel[G4545] the[G3588] prophet.[G4396]
21. And afterward[G2547] they desired[G154] a king:[G935] and[G2532] God[G2316] gave[G1325] unto them[G846] Saul[G4549] the son[G5207] of Kish,[G2797] a man[G435] of[G1537] the tribe[G5443] of Benjamin,[G958] by the space of forty[G5062] years.[G2094]
22. And[G2532] when he had removed[G3179] him,[G846] he raised up[G1453] unto them[G846] David[G1138] to be their king;[G1519] [G935] to whom[G3739] also[G2532] he gave testimony,[G3140] and said,[G2036] I have found[G2147] David[G1138] the[G3588] son of Jesse,[G2421] a man[G435] after[G2596] mine own[G3450] heart,[G2588] which[G3739] shall fulfil[G4160] all[G3956] my[G3450] will.[G2307]
23. Of[G575] this man's[G5127] seed[G4690] hath God[G2316] according[G2596] to his promise[G1860] raised[G1453] unto Israel[G2474] a Savior,[G4990] Jesus: [G2424]
24. When John[G2491] had first preached[G4296] before[G4253] his[G846] coming[G1529] [G4383] the baptism[G908] of repentance[G3341] to all[G3956] the[G3588] people[G2992] of Israel.[G2474]
25. And[G1161] as[G5613] John[G2491] fulfilled[G4137] his course,[G1408] he said,[G3004] Whom[G5101] think[G5282] ye that I[G3165] am?[G1511] I[G1473] am[G1510] not[G3756] he. But,[G235] behold,[G2400] there cometh[G2064] one after[G3326] me,[G1691] whose[G3739] shoes[G5266] of his feet[G4228] I am[G1510] not[G3756] worthy[G514] to loose.[G3089]
26. Men[G435] and brethren,[G80] children[G5207] of the stock[G1085] of Abraham,[G11] and[G2532] whosoever among[G1722] you[G5213] feareth[G5399] God,[G2316] to you[G5213] is the[G3588] word[G3056] of this[G5026] salvation[G4991] sent.[G649]
27. For[G1063] they that dwell[G2730] at[G1722] Jerusalem,[G2419] and[G2532] their[G846] rulers,[G758] because they knew him not,[G50] [G5126] nor[G2532] yet the[G3588] voices[G5456] of the[G3588] prophets[G4396] which are read[G314] every[G2596] [G3956] sabbath day,[G4521] they have fulfilled[G4137] them in condemning[G2919] him.
28. And[G2532] though they found[G2147] no[G3367] cause[G156] of death[G2288] in him, yet desired[G154] they Pilate[G4091] that he[G846] should be slain.[G337]
29. And[G1161] when[G5613] they had fulfilled[G5055] all[G537] that was written[G1125] of[G4012] him,[G846] they took him down[G2507] from[G575] the[G3588] tree,[G3586] and laid[G5087] him in[G1519] a sepulcher.[G3419]
30. But[G1161] God[G2316] raised[G1453] him[G846] from[G1537] the dead: [G3498]
31. And he[G3739] was seen[G3700] many[G4119] days[G2250] of them which came up with[G4872] him[G846] from[G575] Galilee[G1056] to[G1519] Jerusalem,[G2419] who[G3748] are[G1526] his[G846] witnesses[G3144] unto[G4314] the[G3588] people.[G2992]
32. And[G2532] we[G2249] declare unto you glad tidings,[G2097] [G5209] how that the[G3588] promise[G1860] which was made[G1096] unto[G4314] the[G3588] fathers,[G3962]
33. [G3754] God[G2316] hath fulfilled[G1603] the same[G5026] unto us[G2254] their[G846] children,[G5043] in that he hath raised up Jesus again;[G450] [G2424] as[G5613] it is also[G2532] written[G1125] in[G1722] the[G3588] second[G1208] psalm,[G5568]
34. And[G1161] as concerning that[G3754] he raised him up[G450] [G846] from[G1537] the dead,[G3498]
35. Wherefore[G1352] he saith[G3004]
36. For[G1063] David,[G1138] after he[G3303] had served[G5256] his own[G2398] generation[G1074] by the[G3588] will[G1012] of God,[G2316] fell on sleep,[G2837] and[G2532] was laid[G4369] unto[G4314] his[G848] fathers,[G3962] and[G2532] saw[G1492] corruption: [G1312]
37. But[G1161] he, whom[G3739] God[G2316] raised again,[G1453] saw[G1492] no[G3756] corruption.[G1312]
38. Be[G2077] it known[G1110] unto you[G5213] therefore,[G3767] men[G435] and brethren,[G80] that[G3754] through[G1223] this man[G5127] is preached[G2605] unto you[G5213] the forgiveness[G859] of sins: [G266]
39. And[G2532] by[G1722] him[G5129] all[G3956] that believe[G4100] are justified[G1344] from[G575] all things,[G3956] from which[G3739] ye could[G1410] not[G3756] be justified[G1344] by[G1722] the[G3588] law[G3551] of Moses.[G3475]
40. Beware[G991] therefore,[G3767] lest[G3361] that come[G1904] upon[G1909] you,[G5209] which is spoken of[G2046] in[G1722] the[G3588] prophets;[G4396]
41.
42. And[G1161] when the[G3588] Jews[G2453] were gone[G1826] out of[G1537] the[G3588] synagogue,[G4864] the[G3588] Gentiles[G1484] besought[G3870] that these[G5023] words[G4487] might be preached[G2980] to them[G848] the[G3588] next[G3342] sabbath.[G4521]
43. Now[G1161] when the[G3588] congregation[G4864] was broken up,[G3089] many[G4183] of the[G3588] Jews[G2453] and[G2532] religious[G4576] proselytes[G4339] followed[G190] Paul[G3972] and[G2532] Barnabas:[G921] who,[G3748] speaking to[G4354] them,[G846] persuaded[G3982] them[G846] to continue[G1961] in the[G3588] grace[G5485] of God.[G2316]
44. And[G1161] the[G3588] next[G2064] sabbath day[G4521] came almost the whole city together[G4863] [G4975] [G3588] [G3956] [G4172] to hear[G191] the[G3588] word[G3056] of God.[G2316]
45. But[G1161] when the[G3588] Jews[G2453] saw[G1492] the[G3588] multitudes,[G3793] they were filled[G4130] with envy,[G2205] and[G2532] spake against[G483] those things which were spoken[G3004] by[G5259] Paul,[G3972] contradicting[G483] and[G2532] blaspheming.[G987]
46. Then[G1161] Paul[G3972] and[G2532] Barnabas[G921] waxed bold,[G3955] and said,[G2036] It was[G2258] necessary[G316] that the[G3588] word[G3056] of God[G2316] should first[G4412] have been spoken[G2980] to you:[G5213] but[G1161] seeing[G1894] ye put it from you,[G683] [G846] and[G2532] judge[G2919] yourselves[G1438] unworthy[G3756] [G514] of everlasting[G166] life,[G2222] lo,[G2400] we turn[G4762] to[G1519] the[G3588] Gentiles.[G1484]
47. For[G1063] so[G3779] hath the[G3588] Lord[G2962] commanded[G1781] us,[G2254] saying,
48. And[G1161] when the[G3588] Gentiles[G1484] heard[G191] this, they were glad,[G5463] and[G2532] glorified[G1392] the[G3588] word[G3056] of the[G3588] Lord:[G2962] and[G2532] as many as[G3745] were[G2258] ordained[G5021] to[G1519] eternal[G166] life[G2222] believed.[G4100]
49. And[G1161] the[G3588] word[G3056] of the[G3588] Lord[G2962] was published[G1308] throughout[G1223] all[G3650] the[G3588] region.[G5561]
50. But[G1161] the[G3588] Jews[G2453] stirred up[G3951] the[G3588] devout[G4576] and[G2532] honorable[G2158] women,[G1135] and[G2532] the[G3588] chief men[G4413] of the[G3588] city,[G4172] and[G2532] raised[G1892] persecution[G1375] against[G1909] Paul[G3972] and[G2532] Barnabas,[G921] and[G2532] expelled[G1544] them[G846] out of[G575] their[G848] coasts.[G3725]
51. But[G1161] they[G3588] shook off[G1621] the[G3588] dust[G2868] of their[G848] feet[G4228] against[G1909] them,[G846] and came[G2064] unto[G1519] Iconium.[G2430]
52. And[G1161] the[G3588] disciples[G3101] were filled[G4137] with joy,[G5479] and[G2532] with the Holy[G40] Ghost.[G4151]
