King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. And[G1161] Paul,[G3972] earnestly beholding[G816] the[G3588] council,[G4892] said,[G2036] Men[G435] and brethren,[G80] I[G1473] have lived[G4176] in all[G3956] good[G18] conscience[G4893] before God[G2316] unto[G891] this[G5026] day.[G2250]

2. And[G1161] the[G3588] high priest[G749] Ananias[G367] commanded[G2004] them that stood by[G3936] him[G846] to smite[G5180] him[G848] on the[G3588] mouth.[G4750]

3. Then[G5119] said[G2036] Paul[G3972] unto[G4314] him,[G846] God[G2316] shall[G3195] smite[G5180] thee,[G4571] thou whited[G2867] wall:[G5109] for[G2532] sittest[G2521] thou[G4771] to judge[G2919] me[G3165] after[G2596] the[G3588] law,[G3551] and[G2532] commandest[G2753] me[G3165] to be smitten[G5180] contrary to the law?[G3891]

4. And[G1161] they that stood by[G3936] said,[G2036] Revilest[G3058] thou God's[G2316] high priest?[G749]

5. Then[G5037] said[G5346] Paul,[G3972] I wist[G1492] not,[G3756] brethren,[G80] that[G3754] he was[G2076] the high priest:[G749] for[G1063] it is written,[G1125] Thou shalt not[G3756] speak[G2046] evil[G2560] of the ruler[G758] of thy[G4675] people.[G2992]

6. But[G1161] when Paul[G3972] perceived[G1097] that[G3754] the[G3588] one[G1520] part[G3313] were[G2076] Sadducees,[G4523] and[G1161] the[G3588] other[G2087] Pharisees,[G5330] he cried out[G2896] in[G1722] the[G3588] council,[G4892] Men[G435] and brethren,[G80] I[G1473] am[G1510] a Pharisee,[G5330] the son[G5207] of a Pharisee:[G5330] of[G4012] the hope[G1680] and[G2532] resurrection[G386] of the dead[G3498] I[G1473] am called in question.[G2919]

7. And[G1161] when he[G846] had so[G5124] said,[G2980] there arose[G1096] a dissension[G4714] between the[G3588] Pharisees[G5330] and[G2532] the[G3588] Sadducees:[G4523] and[G2532] the[G3588] multitude[G4128] was divided.[G4977]

8. For[G1063] the[G3303] Sadducees[G4523] say[G3004] that there is[G1511] no[G3361] resurrection,[G386] neither[G3366] angel,[G32] nor[G3383] spirit:[G4151] but[G1161] the Pharisees[G5330] confess[G3670] both.[G297]

9. And[G1161] there arose[G1096] a great[G3173] cry:[G2906] and[G2532] the[G3588] scribes[G1122] that were of the[G3588] Pharisees'[G5330] part[G3313] arose,[G450] and strove,[G1264] saying,[G3004] We find[G2147] no[G3762] evil[G2556] in[G1722] this[G5129] man:[G444] but[G1161] if[G1487] a spirit[G4151] or[G2228] an angel[G32] hath spoken[G2980] to him,[G846] let us not[G3361] fight against God.[G2313]

10. And[G1161] when there arose[G1096] a great[G4183] dissension,[G4714] the[G3588] chief captain,[G5506] fearing[G2125] lest[G3361] Paul[G3972] should have been pulled in pieces[G1288] of[G5259] them,[G846] commanded[G2753] the[G3588] soldiers[G4753] to go down,[G2597] and to take him by force[G726] [G846] from[G1537] among[G3319] them,[G848] and[G5037] to bring[G71] him into[G1519] the[G3588] castle.[G3925]

11. And[G1161] the[G3588] night[G3571] following[G1966] the[G3588] Lord[G2962] stood by[G2186] him,[G846] and said,[G2036] Be of good cheer,[G2293] Paul: [G3972] for[G1063] as[G5613] thou hast testified[G1263] of[G4012] me[G1700] in[G1722] Jerusalem,[G2419] so[G3779] must[G1163] thou[G4571] bear witness[G3140] also[G2532] at[G1519] Rome.[G4516]

12. And[G1161] when it was[G1096] day,[G2250] certain[G5100] of the[G3588] Jews[G2453] banded together,[G4160] [G4963] and bound themselves under a curse,[G332] [G1438] saying[G3004] that they would neither[G3383] eat[G5315] nor[G3383] drink[G4095] till[G2193] [G3757] they had killed[G615] Paul.[G3972]

13. And[G1161] they were[G2258] more[G4119] than forty[G5062] which had made[G4160] this[G5026] conspiracy.[G4945]

14. And they[G3748] came[G4334] to the[G3588] chief priests[G749] and[G2532] elders,[G4245] and said,[G2036] We have bound ourselves under a great curse,[G332] [G1438] [G331] that we will eat[G1089] nothing[G3367] until[G2193] [G3757] we have slain[G615] Paul.[G3972]

15. Now[G3568] therefore[G3767] ye[G5210] with[G4862] the[G3588] council[G4892] signify[G1718] to the[G3588] chief captain[G5506] that[G3704] he bring him down[G2609] [G846] unto[G4314] you[G5209] tomorrow,[G839] as though[G5613] ye would[G3195] inquire[G1231] something more perfectly[G197] concerning[G4012] him:[G846] and[G1161] we,[G2249] or ever[G4253] he[G846] come near,[G1448] are[G2070] ready[G2092] to kill[G337] him.[G846]

16. And[G1161] when Paul's[G3972] sister's[G79] son[G5207] heard[G191] of their lying in wait,[G1749] he went[G3854] and[G2532] entered[G1525] into[G1519] the[G3588] castle,[G3925] and told[G518] Paul.[G3972]

17. Then[G1161] Paul[G3972] called one of the centurions unto[G4341] [G1520] [G3588] [G1543] him, and said,[G5346] Bring[G520] this[G5126] young man[G3494] unto[G4314] the[G3588] chief captain:[G5506] for[G1063] he hath[G2192] a certain thing[G5100] to tell[G518] him.[G846]

18. So[G3767] he[G3588] [G3303] took[G3880] him,[G846] and brought[G71] him to[G4314] the[G3588] chief captain,[G5506] and[G2532] said,[G5346] Paul[G3972] the[G3588] prisoner[G1198] called me unto[G4341] [G3165] him, and prayed[G2065] me to bring[G71] this[G5126] young man[G3494] unto[G4314] thee,[G4571] who hath[G2192] something[G5100] to say[G2980] unto thee.[G4671]

19. Then[G1161] the[G3588] chief captain[G5506] took[G1949] him[G848] by the[G3588] hand,[G5495] and[G2532] went with him aside[G402] privately,[G2596] [G2398] and asked[G4441] him, What[G5101] is[G2076] that[G3739] thou hast[G2192] to tell[G518] me?[G3427]

20. And[G1161] he said,[G2036] The[G3588] Jews[G2453] have agreed[G4934] to desire[G2065] thee[G4571] that[G3704] thou wouldest bring down[G2609] Paul[G3972] tomorrow[G839] into[G1519] the[G3588] council,[G4892] as though[G5613] they would[G3195] inquire[G4441] somewhat[G5100] of[G4012] him[G846] more perfectly.[G197]

21. But[G3767] do not[G3361] thou[G4771] yield[G3982] unto them:[G846] for[G1063] there lie in wait[G1748] for him[G846] of[G1537] them[G846] more[G4119] than forty[G5062] men,[G435] which[G3748] have bound themselves with an oath,[G332] [G1438] that they will neither[G3383] eat[G5315] nor[G3383] drink[G4095] till[G2193] [G3757] they have killed[G337] him:[G846] and[G2532] now[G3568] are[G1526] they ready,[G2092] looking for[G4327] a promise[G1860] from[G575] thee.[G4675]

22. So[G3767] the[G3588] chief captain[G5506] then[G3303] let the young man depart,[G630] [G3588] [G3494] and charged[G3853] him, See thou tell[G1583] no man[G3367] that[G3754] thou hast showed[G1718] these things[G5023] to[G4314] me.[G3165]

23. And[G2532] he called unto[G4341] him two[G1417] centurions,[G1543] saying,[G2036] Make ready[G2090] two hundred[G1250] soldiers[G4757] to[G3704] go[G4198] to[G2193] Caesarea,[G2542] and[G2532] horsemen[G2460] threescore and ten,[G1440] and[G2532] spearmen[G1187] two hundred,[G1250] at[G575] the third[G5154] hour[G5610] of the[G3588] night;[G3571]

24. And[G5037] provide[G3936] them beasts,[G2934] that[G2443] they may set Paul on,[G1913] [G3972] and bring him safe[G1295] unto[G4314] Felix[G5344] the[G3588] governor.[G2232]

25. And he wrote[G1125] a letter[G1992] after[G4023] this[G5126] manner: [G5179]

26. Claudius[G2804] Lysias[G3079] unto the[G3588] most excellent[G2903] governor[G2232] Felix[G5344] sendeth greeting.[G5463]

27. This[G5126] man[G435] was taken[G4815] of[G5259] the[G3588] Jews,[G2453] and[G2532] should[G3195] have been killed[G337] of[G5259] them:[G846] then came[G2186] I with[G4862] an army,[G4753] and rescued[G1807] him,[G846] having understood[G3129] that[G3754] he was[G2076] a Roman.[G4514]

28. And[G1161] when I would[G1014] have known[G1097] the[G3588] cause[G156] wherefore[G1223] [G3739] they accused[G1458] him,[G846] I brought him forth[G2609] [G846] into[G1519] their[G848] council: [G4892]

29. Whom[G3739] I perceived[G2147] to be accused[G1458] of[G4012] questions[G2213] of their[G848] law,[G3551] but[G1161] to have[G2192] nothing[G3367] laid to his charge[G1462] worthy[G514] of death[G2288] or[G2228] of bonds.[G1199]

30. And[G1161] when it was told[G3377] me[G3427] how that[G5259] the[G3588] Jews[G2453] laid wait[G1917] [G3195] [G1510] for[G1519] the[G3588] man,[G435] I sent[G3992] straightway[G1824] to[G4314] thee,[G4571] and gave commandment[G3853] to his accusers[G2725] also[G2532] to say[G3004] before[G1909] thee[G4675] what[G3588] they had against[G4314] him.[G846] Farewell.[G4517]

31. Then[G3767] [G3303] the[G3588] soldiers,[G4757] as[G2596] it was commanded[G1299] them,[G846] took[G353] Paul,[G3972] and brought[G71] him by[G1223] night[G3571] to[G1519] Antipatris.[G494]

32. On[G1161] the[G3588] morrow[G1887] they left[G1439] the[G3588] horsemen[G2460] to go[G4198] with[G4862] him,[G846] and returned[G5290] to[G1519] the[G3588] castle: [G3925]

33. Who,[G3748] when they came[G1525] to[G1519] Caesarea,[G2542] and[G2532] delivered[G325] the[G3588] epistle[G1992] to the[G3588] governor,[G2232] presented[G3936] Paul[G3972] also[G2532] before him.[G846]

34. And[G1161] when the[G3588] governor[G2232] had read[G314] the letter, he[G2532] asked[G1905] of[G1537] what[G4169] province[G1885] he was.[G2076] And[G2532] when he understood[G4441] that[G3754] he was of[G575] Cilicia;[G2791]

35. I will hear[G1251] thee,[G4675] said[G5346] he, when[G3752] thine[G4675] accusers[G2725] are also[G2532] come.[G3854] And[G5037] he commanded[G2753] him[G846] to be kept[G5442] in[G1722] Herod's[G2264] judgment hall.[G4232]
