Acts 17:1-34

Now
<1161>
when they had passed through
<1353> (5660)
Amphipolis
<295>
and
<2532>
Apollonia
<624>_,
they came
<2064> (5627)
to
<1519>
Thessalonica
<2332>_,
where
<3699>
was
<2258> (5713)
a synagogue
<4864>
of the Jews
<2453>_:
And
<1161>
Paul
<3972>_,
as
<2596>
his manner was
<1486> (5756)_,
went in
<1525> (5627)
unto
<4314>
them
<846>_,
and
<2532> <1909>
three
<5140>
sabbath
<4521>
days reasoned
<1256> (5711)
with them
<846>
out of
<575>
the scriptures
<1124>_,
Opening
<1272> (5723)
and
<2532>
alleging
<3908> (5734)_,
that
<3754>
Christ
<5547>
must needs
<1163> (5713)
have suffered
<3958> (5629)_,
and
<2532>
risen again
<450> (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>_.
{whom...: or, whom, said he, I preach}
And
<2532>
some
<5100>
of
<1537>
them
<846>
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>_.
But
<1161>
the Jews
<2453>
which believed not
<544> (5723)_,
moved with envy
<2206> (5660)_,

<2532>
took unto them
<4355> (5642)
certain
<5100>
lewd
<4190>
fellows
<435>
of the baser sort
<60>_,
and
<2532>
gathered a company
<3792> (5660)_,
and set all
<2350> (0)
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
<71> (5629)
them
<846>
out
<1519>
to the people
<1218>_.
And
<1161>
when they found
<2147> (5631)
them
<846>
not
<3361>_,
they drew
<4951> (5707)
Jason
<2394>
and
<2532>
certain
<5100>
brethren
<80>
unto
<1909>
the rulers of the city
<4173>_,
crying
<994> (5723)_,

<3754>
These
<3778>
that have turned
<387> (0)
the world
<3625>
upside down
<387> (5660)
are come
<3918> (5748)
hither
<1759>
also
<2532>_;
Whom
<3739>
Jason
<2394>
hath received
<5264> (5766)_:
and
<2532>
these
<3778>
all
<3956>
do
<4238> (5719)
contrary
<561>
to the decrees
<1378>
of Caesar
<2541>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)
that there is
<1511> (5750)
another
<2087>
king
<935>_,
[one] Jesus
<2424>_.
And
<1161>
they troubled
<5015> (5656)
the people
<3793>
and
<2532>
the rulers of the city
<4173>_,
when they heard
<191> (5723)
these things
<5023>_.
And
<2532>
when they had taken
<2983> (5631)
security
<2425>
of
<3844>
Jason
<2394>_,
and
<2532>
of the other
<3062>_,
they let
<630> (0)
them
<846>
go
<630> (5656)_.
And
<1161>
the brethren
<80>
immediately
<2112>
sent away
<1599> (5656) <5037>
Paul
<3972>
and
<2532>
Silas
<4609>
by
<1223>
night
<3571>
unto
<1519>
Berea
<960>_:
who
<3748>
coming
<3854> (5637)
[thither] went
<549> (5713)
into
<1519>
the synagogue
<4864>
of the Jews
<2453>_.
<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
<350> (5723)
the scriptures
<1124>
daily
<2250> <2596>_,
whether
<1487>
those things
<5023>
were
<2192> (5722)
so
<3779>_.
Therefore
<3767> <3303>
many
<4183>
of
<1537>
them
<846>
believed
<4100> (5656)_;
also
<2532>
of honourable
<2158>
women
<1135>
which
<3588>
were Greeks
<1674>_,
and
<2532>
of men
<435>_,
not
<3756>
a few
<3641>_.
But
<1161>
when
<5613>
the Jews
<2453>
of
<575>
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
<960>_,
they came
<2064> (5627)
thither also
<2546>_,
and stirred up
<4531> (5723)
the people
<3793>_.
And
<1161>
then
<5119>
immediately
<2112>
the brethren
<80>
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> (0)
there
<1563>
still
<5278> (5707)_.
And
<1161>
they that conducted
<2525> (5723)
Paul
<3972>
brought
<71> (5627)
him
<846>
unto
<2193>
Athens
<116>_:
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
<846>
with all speed
<5613> <5033>_,
they departed
<1826> (5713)_.
Now
<1161>
while Paul
<3972>
waited for
<1551> (5740)
them
<846>
at
<1722>
Athens
<116>_,
his
<846>
spirit
<4151>
was stirred
<3947> (5712)
in
<1722>
him
<846>_,
when he saw
<2334> (5723)
the city
<4172>
wholly given
<5607> (5752)
to idolatry
<2712>_.
{wholly...: or, full of idols}
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
<58>
daily
<2596> <3956> <2250>
with
<4314>
them that met with him
<3909> (5723)_.
Then
<1161>
certain
<5100>
philosophers
<5386>
of the Epicureans
<1946>_,
and
<2532>
of the Stoicks
<4770>_,
encountered
<4820> (5707)
him
<846>_.
And
<2532>
some
<5100>
said
<3004> (5707)_,
What
<5101>
will
<302> <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
<846>
Jesus
<2424>_,
and
<2532>
the resurrection
<386>_.
{babbler: or, base fellow}
And
<5037>
they took
<1949> (5637)
him
<846>_,
and brought him
<71> (5627)
unto
<1909>
Areopagus
<697>_,
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]? {Areopagus: or, Mars' hill: it was the highest court in Athens}
For
<1063>
thou bringest
<1533> (5719)
certain
<5100>
strange things
<3579> (5723)
to
<1519>
our
<2257>
ears
<189>_:
we would
<1014> (5736)
know
<1097> (5629)
therefore
<3767>
what
<5101>
these things
<5023>
mean
<302> <2309> (5722) <1511> (5750)_.
(For
<1161>
all
<3956>
the Athenians
<117>
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
<191> (5721)
some
<5100>
new thing
<2537>.)
Then
<1161>
Paul
<3972>
stood
<2476> (5685)
in
<1722>
the midst
<3319>
of Mars' hill
<697>_,
and said
<5346> (5713)_,
[Ye] men
<435>
of Athens
<117>_,
I perceive
<2334> (5719)
that
<5613>
in
<2596>
all things
<3956>
ye
<5209>
are too superstitious
<1174>_.
{Mars' hill: or, the court of the Areopagites}
For
<1063>
as I passed by
<1330> (5740)_,
and
<2532>
beheld
<333> (5723)
your
<5216>
devotions
<4574>_,

<2532>
I found
<2147> (5627)
an altar
<1041>
with this
<1722> <3739>
inscription
<1924> (5718)_,
TO THE UNKNOWN
<57>
GOD
<2316>_.
Whom
<3739>
therefore
<3767>
ye ignorantly
<50> (5723)
worship
<2151> (5719)_,
him
<5126>
declare
<2605> (5719)
I
<1473>
unto you
<5213>_.
{devotions: or, gods that ye worship}
God
<2316>
that made
<4160> (5660)
the world
<2889>
and
<2532>
all things
<3956>
therein
<1722> <846>_,
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>_;
Neither
<3761>
is worshipped
<2323> (5743)
with
<5259>
men's
<444>
hands
<5495>_,
as though he needed
<4326> (5740)
any thing
<5100>_,
seeing he
<846>
giveth
<1325> (5723)
to all
<3956>
life
<2222>_,
and
<2532>
breath
<4157>_,
and
<2596>
all things
<3956>_;
And
<5037>
hath made
<4160> (5656)
of
<1537>
one
<1520>
blood
<129>
all
<3956>
nations
<1484>
of men
<444>
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
<846>
habitation
<2733>_;
That they should seek
<2212> (5721)
the Lord
<2962>_,
if
<1487>
haply
<686>
they might feel
<5584> (5659)
after him
<846>_,
and
<2532>
find him
<2147> (5630)_,
though
<2544>
he be
<5225> (5723)
not
<3756>
far
<3112>
from
<575>
every
<1538>
one
<1520>
of us
<2257>_:
For
<1063>
in
<1722>
him
<846>
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>_.
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
<696>_,
or
<2228>
stone
<3037>_,
graven
<5480>
by art
<5078>
and
<2532>
man's
<444>
device
<1761>_.
And
<3303> <3767>
the times
<5550>
of this ignorance
<52>
God
<2316>
winked at
<5237> (5660)_;
but now
<3569>
commandeth
<3853> (5719)
all
<3956>
men
<444>
every where
<3837>
to repent
<3340> (5721)_:
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
<435>
whom
<3739>
he hath ordained
<3724> (5656)_;
[whereof] he hath given
<3930> (5631)
assurance
<4102>
unto all
<3956>
[men], in that he hath raised
<450> (5660)
him
<846>
from
<1537>
the dead
<3498>_.
{hath given...: or, offered faith}
And
<1161>
when they heard
<191> (5660)
of the resurrection
<386>
of the dead
<3498>_,
some
<3303>
mocked
<5512> (5707)_:
and
<1161>
others said
<2036> (5627)_,
We will hear
<191> (5695)
thee
<4675>
again
<3825>
of
<4012>
this
<5127>
[matter].
So
<2532> <3779>
Paul
<3972>
departed
<1831> (5627)
from
<1537>
among
<3319>
them
<846>_.
Howbeit
<1161>
certain
<5100>
men
<435>
clave
<2853> (5685)
unto him
<846>_,
and believed
<4100> (5656)_:
among
<1722>
the which
<3739> <2532>
[was] Dionysius
<1354>
the Areopagite
<698>_,
and
<2532>
a woman
<1135>
named
<3686>
Damaris
<1152>_,
and
<2532>
others
<2087>
with
<4862>
them
<846>_.
