King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. Then[G1161] Agrippa[G67] said[G5346] unto[G4314] Paul,[G3972] Thou[G4671] art permitted[G2010] to speak[G3004] for[G5228] thyself.[G4572] Then[G5119] Paul[G3972] stretched forth[G1614] the[G3588] hand,[G5495] and answered for himself: [G626]

2. I think[G2233] myself[G1683] happy,[G3107] king[G935] Agrippa,[G67] because I shall[G3195] answer for myself[G626] this day[G4594] before[G1909] thee[G4675] touching[G4012] all[G3956] the things whereof[G3739] I am accused[G1458] of[G5259] the Jews: [G2453]

3. Especially[G3122] because I know[G1492] thee[G4571] to be[G5607] expert[G1109] in all[G3956] customs[G1485] and[G5037] [G2532] questions[G2213] which are among[G2596] the Jews:[G2453] wherefore[G1352] I beseech[G1189] thee[G4675] to hear[G191] me[G3450] patiently.[G3116]

4. My[G3450] manner of life[G981] [G3303] [G3767] from[G1537] my youth,[G3503] which was[G1096] at[G575] the first[G746] among[G1722] mine own[G3450] nation[G1484] at[G1722] Jerusalem,[G2414] know[G2467] all[G3956] the[G3588] Jews;[G2453]

5. Which knew[G4267] me[G3165] from the beginning,[G509] if[G1437] they would[G2309] testify,[G3140] that[G3754] after[G2596] the[G3588] most straitest[G196] sect[G139] of our[G2251] religion[G2356] I lived[G2198] a Pharisee.[G5330]

6. And[G2532] now[G3568] I stand[G2476] and am judged[G2919] for[G1909] the hope[G1680] of the[G3588] promise[G1860] made[G1096] of[G5259] God[G2316] unto[G4314] our fathers: [G3962]

7. Unto[G1519] which[G3739] promise our[G2257] twelve tribes,[G1429] instantly[G1722] [G1616] serving[G3000] God day[G2250] and[G2532] night,[G3571] hope[G1679] to come.[G2658] For[G4012] which[G3739] hope's[G1680] sake, king[G935] Agrippa,[G67] I am accused[G1458] of[G5259] the[G3588] Jews.[G2453]

8. Why[G5101] should it be thought[G2919] a thing incredible[G571] with[G3844] you,[G5213] that[G1487] God[G2316] should raise[G1453] the dead?[G3498]

9. I[G1473] verily[G3303] [G3767] thought[G1380] with myself,[G1683] that I ought[G1163] to do[G4238] many things[G4183] contrary[G1727] to[G4314] the[G3588] name[G3686] of Jesus[G2424] of Nazareth.[G3480]

10. Which thing[G3739] I also[G2532] did[G4160] in[G1722] Jerusalem:[G2414] and[G2532] many[G4183] of the[G3588] saints[G40] did I[G1473] shut up[G2623] in prison,[G5438] having received[G2983] authority[G1849] from[G3844] the[G3588] chief priests;[G749] and[G5037] when they[G846] were put to death,[G337] I gave my voice against[G2702] [G5586] them.

11. And[G2532] I punished[G5097] them[G846] oft[G4178] in every[G2596] [G3956] synagogue,[G4864] and compelled[G315] them to blaspheme;[G987] and[G5037] being exceedingly mad against[G1693] [G4057] them,[G846] I persecuted[G1377] them even[G2193] [G2532] unto[G1519] strange[G1854] cities.[G4172]

12. Whereupon[G1722] [G3739] as[G2532] I went[G4198] to[G1519] Damascus[G1154] with[G3326] authority[G1849] and[G2532] commission[G2011] from[G3844] the[G3588] chief priests,[G749]

13. At midday,[G3319] [G2250] O king,[G935] I[G1492] saw in[G2596] the[G3588] way[G3598] a light[G5457] from heaven,[G3771] above[G5228] the[G3588] brightness[G2987] of the[G3588] sun,[G2246] shining round about[G4034] me[G3165] and[G2532] them which journeyed[G4198] with[G4862] me.[G1698]

14. And[G1161] when we[G2257] were all[G3956] fallen[G2667] to[G1519] the[G3588] earth,[G1093] I heard[G191] a voice[G5456] speaking[G2980] unto[G4314] me,[G3165] and[G2532] saying[G3004] in the[G3588] Hebrew[G1446] tongue,[G1258] Saul,[G4549] Saul,[G4549] why[G5101] persecutest[G1377] thou me?[G3165] it is hard[G4642] for thee[G4671] to kick[G2979] against[G4314] the pricks.[G2759]

15. And[G1161] I[G1473] said,[G2036] Who[G5101] art[G1488] thou, Lord?[G2962] And[G1161] he[G3588] said,[G2036] I[G1473] am[G1510] Jesus[G2424] whom[G3739] thou[G4771] persecutest.[G1377]

16. But[G235] rise,[G450] and[G2532] stand[G2476] upon[G1909] thy[G4675] feet: [G4228] for[G1063] I have appeared[G3700] unto thee[G4671] for[G1519] this[G5124] purpose, to make[G4400] thee[G4571] a minister[G5257] and[G2532] a witness[G3144] both[G5037] of these things which[G3739] thou hast seen,[G1492] and[G5037] of those things in the which[G3739] I will appear[G3700] unto thee;[G4671]

17. Delivering[G1807] thee[G4571] from[G1537] the[G3588] people,[G2992] and[G2532] from the[G3588] Gentiles,[G1484] unto[G1519] whom[G3739] now[G3568] I send[G649] thee,[G4571]

18. To open[G455] their[G846] eyes,[G3788] and to turn[G1994] them from[G575] darkness[G4655] to[G1519] light,[G5457] and[G2532] from the[G3588] power[G1849] of Satan[G4567] unto[G1909] God,[G2316] that[G3588] they[G846] may receive[G2983] forgiveness[G859] of sins,[G266] and[G2532] inheritance[G2819] among[G1722] them[G3588] which are sanctified[G37] by faith[G4102] that[G3588] is in[G1519] me.[G1691]

19. Whereupon,[G3606] O king[G935] Agrippa,[G67] I was[G1096] not[G3756] disobedient[G545] unto the[G3588] heavenly[G3770] vision: [G3701]

20. But[G235] showed[G518] first[G4412] unto them[G3588] of[G1722] Damascus,[G1154] and[G2532] at Jerusalem,[G2414] and[G5037] throughout[G1519] all[G3956] the[G3588] coasts[G5561] of Judea,[G2449] and[G2532] then to the[G3588] Gentiles,[G1484] that they should repent[G3340] and[G2532] turn[G1994] to[G1909] God,[G2316] and do[G4238] works[G2041] meet[G514] for repentance.[G3341]

21. For these causes[G1752] [G5130] the[G3588] Jews[G2453] caught[G4815] me[G3165] in[G1722] the[G3588] temple,[G2411] and went about[G3987] to kill[G1315] me.

22. Having therefore[G3767] obtained[G5177] help[G1947] of[G3844] God,[G2316] I continue[G2476] unto[G891] this[G5026] day,[G2250] witnessing[G3140] both[G5037] to small[G3398] and[G2532] great,[G3173] saying[G3004] none[G3762] other things[G1622] than those which[G3739] [G5037] the[G3588] prophets[G4396] and[G2532] Moses[G3475] did say[G2980] should[G3195] come: [G1096]

23. That[G1487] Christ[G5547] should suffer,[G3805] and that[G1487] he should be the first[G4413] that should rise[G1537] [G386] from the dead,[G3498] and should[G3195] show[G2605] light[G5457] unto the[G3588] people,[G2992] and[G2532] to the[G3588] Gentiles.[G1484]

24. And[G1161] as he[G846] thus[G5023] spake for himself,[G626] Festus[G5347] said[G5346] with a loud[G3173] voice,[G5456] Paul,[G3972] thou art beside thyself;[G3105] much[G4183] learning[G1121] doth make[G4062] thee[G4571] mad.[G3130]

25. But[G1161] he[G3588] said,[G5346] I am not mad,[G3105] [G3756] most noble[G2903] Festus;[G5347] but[G235] I speak forth[G669] the words[G4487] of truth[G225] and[G2532] soberness.[G4997]

26. For[G1063] the[G3588] king[G935] knoweth[G1987] of[G4012] these things,[G5130] before[G4314] whom[G3739] also[G2532] I speak[G2980] freely:[G3955] for[G1063] I am persuaded[G3982] that none[G3756] [G5100] of these things[G5130] are hidden[G2990] from him;[G846] for[G1063] this thing[G5124] was[G2076] not[G3756] done[G4238] in[G1722] a corner.[G1137]

27. King[G935] Agrippa,[G67] believest[G4100] thou the[G3588] prophets?[G4396] I know[G1492] that[G3754] thou believest.[G4100]

28. Then[G1161] Agrippa[G67] said[G5346] unto[G4314] Paul,[G3972] Almost[G1722] [G3641] thou persuadest[G3982] me[G3165] to be[G1096] a Christian.[G5546]

29. And[G1161] Paul[G3972] said,[G2036] I would[G2172] [G302] to God,[G2316] that not[G3756] only[G3440] thou,[G4571] but[G235] also[G2532] all[G3956] that hear[G191] me[G3450] this day,[G4594] were[G1096] both[G2532] almost,[G1722] [G3641] and[G2532] altogether[G1722] [G4183] such[G5108] as[G3697] I[G2504] am,[G1510] except[G3924] these[G5130] bonds.[G1199]

30. And[G2532] when he[G846] had thus[G5023] spoken,[G2036] the[G3588] king[G935] rose up,[G450] and[G2532] the[G3588] governor,[G2232] and[G5037] Bernice,[G959] and[G2532] they that sat with[G4775] them: [G846]

31. And[G2532] when they were gone aside,[G402] they talked[G2980] between themselves,[G4314] [G240] saying,[G3004] This[G3778] man[G444] doeth[G4238] nothing[G3762] worthy[G514] of death[G2288] or[G2228] of bonds.[G1199]

32. Then[G1161] said[G5346] Agrippa[G67] unto Festus,[G5347] This[G3778] man[G444] might[G1410] have been set at liberty,[G630] if[G1487] he had not[G3361] appealed[G1941] unto Caesar.[G2541]
