Acts 22:1-30

Men
<435>_,
brethren
<80>_,
and
<2532>
fathers
<3962>_,
hear ye
<191> (5657)
my
<3450>
defence
<627>
[which I make] now
<3568>
unto
<4314>
you
<5209>_.
(And
<1161>
when they heard
<191> (5660)
that
<3754>
he spake
<4377> (5707)
in the Hebrew
<1446>
tongue
<1258>
to them
<846>_,
they kept
<3930> (5627)
the more
<3123>
silence
<2271>_:
and
<2532>
he saith
<5346> (5748),)
I
<1473>
am
<1510> (5748)
verily
<3303>
a man
<435>
[which am] a Jew
<2453>_,
born
<1080> (5772)
in
<1722>
Tarsus
<5019>_,
[a city] in Cilicia
<2791>_,
yet
<1161>
brought up
<397> (5772)
in
<1722>
this
<5026>
city
<4172>
at
<3844>
the feet
<4228>
of Gamaliel
<1059>_,
[and] taught
<3811> (5772)
according
<2596>
to the perfect manner
<195>
of the law
<3551>
of the fathers
<3971>_,
and was
<5225> (5723)
zealous
<2207>
toward God
<2316>_,
as
<2531>
ye
<5210>
all
<3956>
are
<2075> (5748)
this day
<4594>_.
And I
<3739>
persecuted
<1377> (5656)
this
<5026>
way
<3598>
unto
<891>
the death
<2288>_,
binding
<1195> (5723)
and
<2532>
delivering
<3860> (5723)
into
<1519>
prisons
<5438>
both
<5037>
men
<435>
and
<2532>
women
<1135>_.
As
<5613>
also
<2532>
the high priest
<749>
doth bear
<3140> (0)
me
<3427>
witness
<3140> (5719)_,
and
<2532>
all
<3956>
the estate of the elders
<4244>_:
from
<3844>
whom
<3739>
also
<2532>
I received
<1209> (5666)
letters
<1992>
unto
<4314>
the brethren
<80>_,
and
<2532>
went
<4198> (5711)
to
<1519>
Damascus
<1154>_,
to bring
<71> (5694)
them which were
<5607> (5752)
there
<1566>
bound
<1210> (5772)
unto
<1519>
Jerusalem
<2419>_,
for to
<2443>
be punished
<5097> (5686)_.
And
<1161>
it came to pass
<1096> (5633)_,
that, as I made
<4198> (0)
my
<3427>
journey
<4198> (5740)_,
and
<2532>
was come nigh
<1448> (5723)
unto Damascus
<1154>
about
<4012>
noon
<3314>_,
suddenly
<1810>
there shone
<4015> (0)
from
<1537>
heaven
<3772>
a great
<2425>
light
<5457>
round
<4015> (5658)
about
<4012>
me
<1691>_.
And
<5037>
I fell
<4098> (5627)
unto
<1519>
the ground
<1475>_,
and
<2532>
heard
<191> (5656)
a voice
<5456>
saying
<3004> (5723)
unto me
<3427>_,
Saul
<4549>_,
Saul
<4549>_,
why
<5101>
persecutest thou
<1377> (5719)
me
<3165>_?
And
<1161>
I
<1473>
answered
<611> (5662)_,
Who
<5101>
art thou
<1488> (5748)_,
Lord
<2962>_?
And
<5037>
he said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
me
<3165>_,
I
<1473>
am
<1510> (5748)
Jesus
<2424>
of Nazareth
<3480>_,
whom
<3739>
thou
<4771>
persecutest
<1377> (5719)_.
And
<1161>
they that were
<5607> (5752)
with
<4862>
me
<1698>
saw
<2300> (5662)
indeed
<3303>
the light
<5457>_,
and
<2532>
were
<1096> (5633)
afraid
<1719>_;
but
<1161>
they heard
<191> (5656)
not
<3756>
the voice
<5456>
of him that spake
<2980> (5723)
to me
<3427>_.
And
<1161>
I said
<2036> (5627)_,
What
<5101>
shall I do
<4160> (5661)_,
Lord
<2962>_?
And
<1161>
the Lord
<2962>
said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
me
<3165>_,
Arise
<450> (5631)_,
and go
<4198> (5737)
into
<1519>
Damascus
<1154>_;
and there
<2546>
it shall be told
<2980> (5701)
thee
<4671>
of
<4012>
all things
<3956>
which
<3739>
are appointed
<5021> (5769)
for thee
<4671>
to do
<4160> (5658)_.
And
<1161>
when
<5613>
I could
<1689> (0)
not
<3756>
see
<1689> (5707)
for
<575>
the glory
<1391>
of that
<1565>
light
<5457>_,
being led by the hand
<5496> (5746)
of
<5259>
them that were
<4895> (5752)
with me
<3427>_,
I came
<2064> (5627)
into
<1519>
Damascus
<1154>_.
And
<1161>
one
<5100>
Ananias
<367>_,
a devout
<2152>
man
<435>
according
<2596>
to the law
<3551>_,
having a good report
<3140> (5746)
of
<5259>
all
<3956>
the Jews
<2453>
which dwelt
<2730> (5723)
[there],
Came
<2064> (5631)
unto
<4314>
me
<3165>_,
and
<2532>
stood
<2186> (5631)_,
and said
<2036> (5627)
unto me
<3427>_,
Brother
<80>
Saul
<4549>_,
receive thy sight
<308> (5657)_.
And
<2504> (0)
the same
<846>
hour
<5610>
I
<2504>
looked up
<308> (5656)
upon
<1519>
him
<846>_.
And
<1161>
he said
<2036> (5627)_,
The God
<2316>
of our
<2257>
fathers
<3962>
hath chosen
<4400> (5662)
thee
<4571>_,
that thou shouldest know
<1097> (5629)
his
<846>
will
<2307>_,
and
<2532>
see
<1492> (5629)
that Just One
<1342>_,
and
<2532>
shouldest hear
<191> (5658)
the voice
<5456>
of
<1537>
his
<846>
mouth
<4750>_.
For
<3754>
thou shalt be
<2071> (5704)
his
<846>
witness
<3144>
unto
<4314>
all
<3956>
men
<444>
of what
<3739>
thou hast seen
<3708> (5758)
and
<2532>
heard
<191> (5656)_.
And
<2532>
now
<3568>
why
<5101>
tarriest thou
<3195> (5719)_?
arise
<450> (5631)_,
and be baptized
<907> (5669)_,
and
<2532>
wash away
<628> (5669)
thy
<4675>
sins
<266>_,
calling on
<1941> (5671)
the name
<3686>
of the Lord
<2962>_.
And
<1161>
it came to pass
<1096> (5633)_,
that, when I
<3427>
was come again
<5290> (5660)
to
<1519>
Jerusalem
<2419>_,
even
<2532>
while I
<3450>
prayed
<4336> (5740)
in
<1722>
the temple
<2411>_,
I
<3165>
was
<1096> (5635)
in
<1722>
a trance
<1611>_;
And
<2532>
saw
<1492> (5629)
him
<846>
saying
<3004> (5723)
unto me
<3427>_,
Make haste
<4692> (5657)_,
and
<2532>
get thee
<1831> (5628)
quickly
<5034> <1722>
out of
<1537>
Jerusalem
<2419>_:
for
<1360>
they will
<3858> (0)
not
<3756>
receive
<3858> (5699)
thy
<4675>
testimony
<3141>
concerning
<4012>
me
<1700>_.
And I
<2504>
said
<2036> (5627)_,
Lord
<2962>_,
they
<846>
know
<1987> (5736)
that
<3754>
I
<1473>
imprisoned
<2252> (5713) <5439> (5723)
and
<2532>
beat
<1194> (5723)
in every
<2596>
synagogue
<4864>
them that believed
<4100> (5723)
on
<1909>
thee
<4571>_:
And
<2532>
when
<3753>
the blood
<129>
of thy
<4675>
martyr
<3144>
Stephen
<4736>
was shed
<1632> (5712)_,
I
<846>
also
<2532>
was
<2252> (5713)
standing by
<2186> (5761)_,
and
<2532>
consenting
<4909> (5723)
unto his
<846>
death
<336>_,
and
<2532>
kept
<5442> (5723)
the raiment
<2440>
of them that slew
<337> (5723)
him
<846>_.
And
<2532>
he said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
me
<3165>_,
Depart
<4198> (5737)_:
for
<3754>
I
<1473>
will send
<1821> (5692)
thee
<4571>
far hence
<3112>
unto
<1519>
the Gentiles
<1484>_.
And
<1161>
they gave
<191> (0)
him
<846>
audience
<191> (5707)
unto
<891>
this
<5127>
word
<3056>_,
and
<2532>
[then] lifted up
<1869> (5656)
their
<846>
voices
<5456>_,
and said
<3004> (5723)_,
Away with
<142> (5720)
such
<5108>
a [fellow] from
<575>
the earth
<1093>_:
for
<1063>
it is
<2520> (0)
not
<3756>
fit
<2520> (5723)
that he
<846>
should live
<2198> (5721)_.
And
<1161>
as they
<846>
cried out
<2905> (5723)_,
and
<2532>
cast off
<4495> (5723)
[their] clothes
<2440>_,
and
<2532>
threw
<906> (5723)
dust
<2868>
into
<1519>
the air
<109>_,
The chief captain
<5506>
commanded
<2753> (5656)
him
<846>
to be brought
<71> (5745)
into
<1519>
the castle
<3925>_,
and bade
<2036> (5631)
that he
<846>
should be examined
<426> (5745)
by scourging
<3148>_;
that
<2443>
he might know
<1921> (5632)
wherefore
<1223> <3739> <156>
they cried
<2019> (0)
so
<3779>
against
<2019> (5707)
him
<846>_.
And
<1161>
as
<5613>
they bound
<4385> (5656) (5625) <4385> (5656)
him
<846>
with thongs
<2438>_,
Paul
<3972>
said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
the centurion
<1543>
that stood by
<2476> (5761)_,
Is it lawful
<1487> <1832> (5748)
for you
<5213>
to scourge
<3147> (5721)
a man
<444>
that is a Roman
<4514>_,
and
<2532>
uncondemned
<178>_?
When
<1161>
the centurion
<1543>
heard
<191> (5660)
[that], he went
<4334> (5631)
and told
<518> (5656)
the chief captain
<5506>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
Take heed
<3708> (5720)
what
<5101>
thou doest
<3195> (5719) <4160> (5721)_:
for
<1063>
this
<3778>
man
<444>
is
<2076> (5748)
a Roman
<4514>_.
Then
<1161>
the chief captain
<5506>
came
<4334> (5631)_,
and said
<2036> (5627)
unto him
<846>_,
Tell
<3004> (5720)
me
<3427>_,

<1487>
art
<1488> (5748)
thou
<4771>
a Roman
<4514>_?

<1161>
He said
<5346> (5713)_,
Yea
<3483>_.
And
<5037>
the chief captain
<5506>
answered
<611> (5662)_,
With a great
<4183>
sum
<2774>
obtained
<2932> (5662)
I
<1473>
this
<5026>
freedom
<4174>_.
And
<1161>
Paul
<3972>
said
<5346> (5713)_,
But
<1161>
I
<1473> <2532>
was [free] born
<1080> (5769)_.
Then
<3767>
straightway
<2112>
they departed
<868> (5627)
from
<575>
him
<846>
which
<3588>
should
<3195> (5723)
have examined
<426> (5721)
him
<846>_:
and
<1161>
the chief captain
<5506>
also
<2532>
was afraid
<5399> (5675)_,
after he knew
<1921> (5631)
that
<3754>
he was
<2076> (5748)
a Roman
<4514>_,
and
<2532>
because
<3754>
he had
<2258> (5713)
bound
<1210> (5761)
him
<846>_.
{examined him: or, tortured him}
<1161>@ On the morrow
<1887>_,
because he would
<1014> (5740)
have known
<1097> (5629)
the certainty
<804>
wherefore
<5101>
he was accused
<2723> (5743)
of
<3844>
the Jews
<2453>_,
he loosed
<3089> (5656)
him
<846>
from
<575>
[his] bands
<1199>_,
and
<2532>
commanded
<2753> (5656)
the chief priests
<749>
and
<2532>
all
<3650>
their
<846>
council
<4892>
to appear
<2064> (5629)_,
and
<2532>
brought
<2609> (0)
Paul
<3972>
down
<2609> (5631)_,
and set him
<2476> (5656)
before
<1519>
them
<846>_.
