Acts 23:1-35

And
<1161>
Paul
<3972>_,
earnestly beholding
<816> (5660)
the council
<4892>_,
said
<2036> (5627)_,
Men
<435>
[and] brethren
<80>_,
I
<1473>
have lived
<4176> (5769)
in all
<3956>
good
<18>
conscience
<4893>
before God
<2316>
until
<891>
this
<5026>
day
<2250>_.
And
<1161>
the high priest
<749>
Ananias
<367>
commanded
<2004> (5656)
them that stood by
<3936> (5761)
him
<846>
to smite
<5180> (5721)
him
<846>
on the mouth
<4750>_.
Then
<5119>
said
<2036> (5627)
Paul
<3972>
unto
<4314>
him
<846>_,
God
<2316>
shall
<3195> (5719)
smite
<5180> (5721)
thee
<4571>_,
[thou] whited
<2867> (5772)
wall
<5109>_:
for
<2532>
sittest
<2521> (5736)
thou
<4771>
to judge
<2919> (5723)
me
<3165>
after
<2596>
the law
<3551>_,
and
<2532>
commandest
<2753> (5719)
me
<3165>
to be smitten
<5180> (5745)
contrary to the law
<3891> (5723)_?
And
<1161>
they that stood by
<3936> (5761)
said
<2036> (5627)_,
Revilest thou
<3058> (5719)
God's
<2316>
high priest
<749>_?
Then
<5037>
said
<5346> (5713)
Paul
<3972>_,
I wist
<1492> (5715)
not
<3756>_,
brethren
<80>_,
that
<3754>
he was
<2076> (5748)
the high priest
<749>_:
for
<1063>
it is written
<1125> (5769)_,
Thou shalt
<2046> (0)
not
<3756>
speak
<2046> (5692)
evil
<2560>
of the ruler
<758>
of thy
<4675>
people
<2992>_.
But
<1161>
when Paul
<3972>
perceived
<1097> (5631)
that
<3754>
the one
<1520>
part
<3313>
were
<2076> (5748)
Sadducees
<4523>_,
and
<1161>
the other
<2087>
Pharisees
<5330>_,
he cried out
<2896> (5656)
in
<1722>
the council
<4892>_,
Men
<435>
[and] brethren
<80>_,
I
<1473>
am
<1510> (5748)
a Pharisee
<5330>_,
the son
<5207>
of a Pharisee
<5330>_:
of
<4012>
the hope
<1680>
and
<2532>
resurrection
<386>
of the dead
<3498>
I
<1473>
am called in question
<2919> (5743)_.
And
<1161>
when he
<846>
had
<2980> (0)
so
<5124>
said
<2980> (5660)_,
there arose
<1096> (5633)
a dissension
<4714>
between the Pharisees
<5330>
and
<2532>
the Sadducees
<4523>_:
and
<2532>
the multitude
<4128>
was divided
<4977> (5681)_.
For
<1063> <3303>
the Sadducees
<4523>
say
<3004> (5719)
that there is
<1511> (5750)
no
<3361>
resurrection
<386>_,
neither
<3366>
angel
<32>_,
nor
<3383>
spirit
<4151>_:
but
<1161>
the Pharisees
<5330>
confess
<3670> (5719)
both
<297>_.
And
<1161>
there arose
<1096> (5633)
a great
<3173>
cry
<2906>_:
and
<2532>
the scribes
<1122>
[that were] of the Pharisees
<5330>_'
part
<3313>
arose
<450> (5631)_,
and strove
<1264> (5711)_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
We find
<2147> (5719)
no
<3762>
evil
<2556>
in
<1722>
this
<5129>
man
<444>_:
but
<1161>
if
<1487>
a spirit
<4151>
or
<2228>
an angel
<32>
hath spoken
<2980> (5656)
to him
<846>_,
let us
<2313> (0)
not
<3361>
fight
<2313> (5725)
against God.
And
<1161>
when there arose
<1096> (5637)
a great
<4183>
dissension
<4714>_,
the chief captain
<5506>_,
fearing
<2125> (5685)
lest
<3361>
Paul
<3972>
should have been pulled in pieces
<1288> (5686)
of
<5259>
them
<846>_,
commanded
<2753> (5656)
the soldiers
<4753>
to go down
<2597> (5631)_,
and to take
<726> (0)
him
<846>
by force
<726> (5658)
from
<1537>
among
<3319>
them
<846>_,
and
<5037>
to bring
<71> (5721)
[him] into
<1519>
the castle
<3925>_.
And
<1161>
the night
<3571>
following
<1966> (5752)
the Lord
<2962>
stood by
<2186> (5631)
him
<846>_,
and said
<2036> (5627)_,
Be of good cheer
<2293> (5720)_,
Paul
<3972>_:
for
<1063>
as
<5613>
thou hast testified
<1263> (5662)
of
<4012>
me
<1700>
in
<1519>
Jerusalem
<2419>_,
so
<3779>
must
<1163> (5748)
thou
<4571>
bear witness
<3140> (5658)
also
<2532>
at
<1519>
Rome
<4516>_.
And
<1161>
when it was
<1096> (5637)
day
<2250>_,
certain
<5100>
of the Jews
<2453>
banded together
<4160> (5660) <4963>_,
and bound
<332> (0)
themselves
<1438>
under a curse
<332> (5656)_,
saying
<3004> (5723)
that they would
<5315> (0)
neither
<3383>
eat
<5315> (5629)
nor
<3383>
drink
<4095> (5629)
till
<2193> <3757>
they had killed
<615> (5725)
Paul
<3972>_.
{under a curse: or, with an oath of execration}
And
<1161>
they were
<2258> (5713)
more than
<4119>
forty
<5062>
which
<3588>
had made
<4160> (5761)
this
<5026>
conspiracy
<4945>_.
And they
<3748>
came to
<4334> (5631)
the chief priests
<749>
and
<2532>
elders
<4245>_,
and said
<2036> (5627)_,
We have bound
<332> (5656)
ourselves
<1438>
under a great curse
<331>_,
that we will eat
<1089> (5664)
nothing
<3367>
until
<2193> <3739>
we have slain
<615> (5725)
Paul
<3972>_.
Now
<3568>
therefore
<3767>
ye
<5210>
with
<4862>
the council
<4892>
signify
<1718> (5657)
to the chief captain
<5506>
that
<3704>
he bring
<2609> (0)
him
<846>
down
<2609> (5632)
unto
<4314>
you
<5209>
to morrow
<839>_,
as
<5613>
though ye would
<3195> (5723)
enquire
<1231> (5721)
something more perfectly
<197>
concerning
<4012>
him
<846>_:
and
<1161>
we
<2249>_,
or ever
<4253>
he
<846>
come near
<1448> (5658)_,
are
<2070> (5748)
ready
<2092>
to kill
<337> (5629)
him
<846>_.
And
<1161>
when Paul's
<3972>
sister's
<79>
son
<5207>
heard
<191> (5660)
of their lying in wait
<1749>_,
he went
<3854> (5637)
and
<2532>
entered
<1525> (5631)
into
<1519>
the castle
<3925>_,
and told
<518> (5656)
Paul
<3972>_.
Then
<1161>
Paul
<3972>
called
<4341> (5666)
one
<1520>
of the centurions
<1543>
unto [him], and said
<5346> (5713)_,
Bring
<520> (5628)
this
<5126>
young man
<3494>
unto
<4314>
the chief captain
<5506>_:
for
<1063>
he hath
<2192> (5719)
a certain thing
<5100>
to tell
<518> (5658)
him
<846>_.
So
<3767> <3303>
he took
<3880> (5631)
him
<846>_,
and brought
<71> (5627)
[him] to
<4314>
the chief captain
<5506>_,
and
<2532>
said
<5346> (5748)_,
Paul
<3972>
the prisoner
<1198>
called
<4341> (5666)
me
<3165>
unto [him], and prayed me
<2065> (5656)
to bring
<71> (5629)
this
<5126>
young man
<3494>
unto
<4314>
thee
<4571>_,
who hath
<2192> (5723)
something
<5100>
to say
<2980> (5658)
unto thee
<4671>_.
Then
<1161>
the chief captain
<5506>
took
<1949> (5637)
him
<846>
by the hand
<5495>_,
and
<2532>
went [with him] aside
<402> (5660)
privately
<2596> <2398>_,
and asked
<4441> (5711)
[him], What
<5101>
is
<2076> (5748)
that
<3739>
thou hast
<2192> (5719)
to tell
<518> (5658)
me
<3427>_?
And
<1161>
he said
<2036> (5627)_,

<3754>
The Jews
<2453>
have agreed
<4934> (5639)
to desire
<2065> (5658)
thee
<4571>
that
<3704>
thou wouldest bring down
<2609> (5632)
Paul
<3972>
to morrow
<839>
into
<1519>
the council
<4892>_,
as
<5613>
though they would
<3195> (5723)
enquire
<4441> (5738)
somewhat
<5100>
of
<4012>
him
<846>
more perfectly
<197>_.
But
<3767>
do
<3982> (0)
not
<3361>
thou
<4771>
yield
<3982> (5686)
unto them
<846>_:
for
<1063>
there lie in wait for
<1748> (5719)
him
<846>
of
<1537>
them
<846>
more than
<4119>
forty
<5062>
men
<435>_,
which
<3748>
have bound
<332> (0)
themselves
<1438>
with an oath
<332> (5656)_,
that they will
<5315> (0)
neither
<3383>
eat
<5315> (5629)
nor
<3383>
drink
<4095> (5629)
till
<2193> <3739>
they have killed
<337> (5661)
him
<846>_:
and
<2532>
now
<3568>
are they
<1526> (5748)
ready
<2092>_,
looking for
<4327> (5740)
a promise
<1860>
from
<575>
thee
<4675>_.
So
<3303> <3767>
the chief captain
<5506>
[then] let
<630> (0)
the young man
<3494>
depart
<630> (5656)_,
and charged
<3853> (5660)
[him, See thou] tell
<1583> (5658)
no man
<3367>
that
<3754>
thou hast shewed
<1718> (5656)
these things
<5023>
to
<4314>
me
<3165>_.
And
<2532>
he called unto
<4341> (5666)
[him]
<5100>
two
<1417>
centurions
<1543>_,
saying
<2036> (5627)_,
Make ready
<2090> (5657)
two hundred
<1250>
soldiers
<4757>
to
<3704>
go
<4198> (5680)
to
<2193>
Caesarea
<2542>_,
and
<2532>
horsemen
<2460>
threescore and ten
<1440>_,
and
<2532>
spearmen
<1187>
two hundred
<1250>_,
at
<575>
the third
<5154>
hour
<5610>
of the night
<3571>_;
And
<5037>
provide
<3936> (5658)
[them] beasts
<2934>_,
that
<2443>
they may set
<1913> (0)
Paul
<3972>
on
<1913> (5660)_,
and bring [him] safe
<1295> (5661)
unto
<4314>
Felix
<5344>
the governor
<2232>_.
And he wrote
<1125> (5660)
a letter
<1992>
after
<4023> (5723)
this
<5126>
manner
<5179>_:
Claudius
<2804>
Lysias
<3079>
unto the most excellent
<2903>
governor
<2232>
Felix
<5344>
[sendeth] greeting
<5463> (5721)_.
This
<5126>
man
<435>
was taken
<4815> (5685)
of
<5259>
the Jews
<2453>_,
and
<2532>
should
<3195> (5723)
have been killed
<337> (5745)
of
<5259>
them
<846>_:
then came I
<2186> (5631)
with
<4862>
an army
<4753>_,
and rescued
<1807> (5639)
him
<846>_,
having understood
<3129> (5631)
that
<3754>
he was
<2076> (5748)
a Roman
<4514>_.
And
<1161>
when
<1014> (0)
I would
<1014> (5740)
have known
<1097> (5629)
the cause
<156>
wherefore
<1223> <3739>
they accused
<1458> (5707)
him
<846>_,
I brought
<2609> (0)
him
<846>
forth
<2609> (5627)
into
<1519>
their
<846>
council
<4892>_:
Whom
<3739>
I perceived
<2147> (5627)
to be accused
<1458> (5746)
of
<4012>
questions
<2213>
of their
<846>
law
<3551>_,
but
<1161>
to have
<2192> (5723)
nothing
<3367>
laid to his charge
<1462>
worthy
<514>
of death
<2288>
or
<2228>
of bonds
<1199>_.
And
<1161>
when it was told
<3377> (5685)
me
<3427>
how that
<5259>
the Jews
<2453>
laid wait
<1917> <3195> (5721) <1510> (5705)
for
<1519>
the man
<435>_,
I sent
<3992> (5656)
straightway
<1824>
to
<4314>
thee
<4571>_,
and gave commandment
<3853> (5660)
to his accusers
<2725>
also
<2532>
to say
<3004> (5721)
before
<1909>
thee
<4675>
what [they had] against
<4314>
him
<846>_.
Farewell
<4517> (5770)_.
Then
<3767> <3303>
the soldiers
<4757>_,
as
<2596>
it was commanded
<1299> (5772)
them
<846>_,
took
<353> (5631)
Paul
<3972>_,
and brought
<71> (5627)
[him] by
<1223>
night
<3571>
to
<1519>
Antipatris
<494>_.
<1161>@ On the morrow
<1887>
they left
<1439> (5660)
the horsemen
<2460>
to go
<4198> (5738)
with
<4862>
him
<846>_,
and returned
<5290> (5656)
to
<1519>
the castle
<3925>_:
Who
<3748>_,
when they came
<1525> (5631)
to
<1519>
Caesarea
<2542>_,
and
<2532>
delivered
<325> (5631)
the epistle
<1992>
to the governor
<2232>_,
presented
<3936> (5656)
Paul
<3972>
also
<2532>
before him
<846>_.
And
<1161>
when the governor
<2232>
had read
<314> (5631)
[the letter],
<2532>
he asked
<1905> (5660)
of
<1537>
what
<4169>
province
<1885>
he was
<2076> (5748)_.
And
<2532>
when he understood
<4441> (5637)
that
<3754>
[he was] of
<575>
Cilicia
<2791>_;
I will hear
<1251> (5695)
thee
<4675>_,
said he
<5346> (5713)_,
when
<3752>
thine
<4675>
accusers
<2725>
are
<3854> (0)
also
<2532>
come
<3854> (5638)_.
And
<5037>
he commanded
<2753> (5656)
him
<846>
to be kept
<5442> (5733)
in
<1722>
Herod's
<2264>
judgment hall
<4232>_.
