NowG1161 when they had passed throughG1353 AmphipolisG295 andG2532 ApolloniaG624, they cameG2064 toG1519 ThessalonicaG2332, whereG3699 wasG2258 a synagogueG4864 of the JewsG2453:2AndG1161 PaulG3972, asG2596 his manner wasG1486, went inG1525 untoG4314 themG846, andG2532 G1909 threeG5140 sabbathG4521 days reasonedG1256 with themG846 out ofG575 the scripturesG1124,3OpeningG1272 andG2532 allegingG3908, thatG3754 ChristG5547 must needsG1163 have sufferedG3958, andG2532 risen againG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498; andG2532 thatG3754 thisG3778 JesusG2424, whomG3739 IG1473 preachG2605 unto youG5213, isG2076 ChristG5547.4AndG2532 someG5100 ofG1537 themG846 believedG3982, andG2532 consortedG4345 with PaulG3972 andG2532 SilasG4609; andG5037 of the devoutG4576 GreeksG1672 a greatG4183 multitudeG4128, andG5037 of the chiefG4413 womenG1135 notG3756 a fewG3641.5ButG1161 the JewsG2453 which believed notG544, moved with envyG2206,G2532 took unto themG4355 certainG5100 lewdG4190 fellowsG435 of the baser sortG60, andG2532 gathered a companyG3792, and set allG2350 the cityG4172 on an uproarG2350, andG5037 assaultedG2186 the houseG3614 of JasonG2394, and soughtG2212 to bringG71 themG846 outG1519 to the peopleG1218.6AndG1161 when they foundG2147 themG846 notG3361, they drewG4951 JasonG2394 andG2532 certainG5100 brethrenG80 untoG1909 the rulers of the cityG4173, cryingG994,G3754 TheseG3778 that have turnedG387 the worldG3625 upside downG387 are comeG3918 hitherG1759 alsoG2532;7WhomG3739 JasonG2394 hath receivedG5264: andG2532 theseG3778 allG3956 doG4238 contraryG561 to the decreesG1378 of CaesarG2541, sayingG3004 that there isG1511 anotherG2087 kingG935, one JesusG2424.8AndG1161 they troubledG5015 the peopleG3793 andG2532 the rulers of the cityG4173, when they heardG191 these thingsG5023.9AndG2532 when they had takenG2983 securityG2425 ofG3844 JasonG2394, andG2532 of the otherG3062, they letG630 themG846 goG630.10AndG1161 the brethrenG80 immediatelyG2112 sent awayG1599 G5037 PaulG3972 andG2532 SilasG4609 byG1223 nightG3571 untoG1519 BereaG960: whoG3748 comingG3854 thither wentG549 intoG1519 the synagogueG4864 of the JewsG2453.11G1161 TheseG3778 wereG2258 more nobleG2104 than those inG1722 ThessalonicaG2332, in that theyG3748 receivedG1209 the wordG3056 withG3326 allG3956 readiness of mindG4288, and searchedG350 the scripturesG1124 dailyG2250 G2596, whetherG1487 those thingsG5023 wereG2192 soG3779.12ThereforeG3767 G3303 manyG4183 ofG1537 themG846 believedG4100; alsoG2532 of honourableG2158 womenG1135 whichG3588 were GreeksG1674, andG2532 of menG435, notG3756 a fewG3641.13ButG1161 whenG5613 the JewsG2453 ofG575 ThessalonicaG2332 had knowledgeG1097 thatG3754 G2532 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 was preachedG2605 ofG5259 PaulG3972 atG1722 BereaG960, they cameG2064 thither alsoG2546, and stirred upG4531 the peopleG3793.14AndG1161 thenG5119 immediatelyG2112 the brethrenG80 sent awayG1821 PaulG3972 to goG4198 as it wereG5613 toG1909 the seaG2281: butG1161 G5037 SilasG4609 andG2532 TimotheusG5095 abodeG5278 thereG1563 stillG5278.15AndG1161 they that conductedG2525 PaulG3972 broughtG71 himG846 untoG2193 AthensG116: andG2532 receivingG2983 a commandmentG1785 untoG4314 SilasG4609 andG2532 TimotheusG5095 for toG2443 comeG2064 toG4314 himG846 with all speedG5613 G5033, they departedG1826.16NowG1161 while PaulG3972 waited forG1551 themG846 atG1722 AthensG116, hisG846 spiritG4151 was stirredG3947 inG1722 himG846, when he sawG2334 the cityG4172 wholly givenG5607 to idolatryG2712.17ThereforeG3767 G3303 disputed heG1256 inG1722 the synagogueG4864 with the JewsG2453, andG2532 with the devout personsG4576, andG2532 inG1722 the marketG58 dailyG2596 G3956 G2250 withG4314 them that met with himG3909.18ThenG1161 certainG5100 philosophersG5386 of the EpicureansG1946, andG2532 of the StoicksG4770, encounteredG4820 himG846. AndG2532 someG5100 saidG3004, WhatG5101 willG302 G2309 thisG3778 babblerG4691 sayG3004?G1161 other some, He seemethG1380 to beG1511 a setter forthG2604 of strangeG3581 godsG1140: becauseG3754 he preachedG2097 unto themG846 JesusG2424, andG2532 the resurrectionG386.19AndG5037 they tookG1949 himG846, and brought himG71 untoG1909 AreopagusG697, sayingG3004, MayG1410 we knowG1097 whatG5101 thisG3778 newG2537 doctrineG1322, whereofG5259 thouG4675 speakestG2980, is?20ForG1063 thou bringestG1533 certainG5100 strange thingsG3579 toG1519 ourG2257 earsG189: we wouldG1014 knowG1097 thereforeG3767 whatG5101 these thingsG5023 meanG302 G2309 G1511.21(ForG1161 allG3956 the AtheniansG117 andG2532 strangersG3581 whichG3588 were thereG1927 spent their timeG2119 inG1519 nothingG3762 elseG2087, but eitherG2228 to tellG3004, orG2532 to hearG191 someG5100 new thingG2537.)22ThenG1161 PaulG3972 stoodG2476 inG1722 the midstG3319 of Mars' hillG697, and saidG5346, Ye menG435 of AthensG117, I perceiveG2334 thatG5613 inG2596 all thingsG3956 yeG5209 are too superstitiousG1174.23ForG1063 as I passed byG1330, andG2532 beheldG333 yourG5216 devotionsG4574,G2532 I foundG2147 an altarG1041 with thisG1722 G3739 inscriptionG1924, TO THE UNKNOWNG57 GODG2316. WhomG3739 thereforeG3767 ye ignorantlyG50 worshipG2151, himG5126 declareG2605 IG1473 unto youG5213.24GodG2316 that madeG4160 the worldG2889 andG2532 all thingsG3956 thereinG1722 G846, seeing that heG3778 isG5225 LordG2962 of heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1093, dwellethG2730 notG3756 inG1722 templesG3485 made with handsG5499;25NeitherG3761 is worshippedG2323 withG5259 men'sG444 handsG5495, as though he neededG4326 any thingG5100, seeing heG846 givethG1325 to allG3956 lifeG2222, andG2532 breathG4157, andG2596 all thingsG3956;26AndG5037 hath madeG4160 ofG1537 oneG1520 bloodG129 allG3956 nationsG1484 of menG444 for to dwellG2730 onG1909 allG3956 the faceG4383 of the earthG1093, and hath determinedG3724 the timesG2540 before appointedG4384, andG2532 the boundsG3734 of theirG846 habitationG2733;27That they should seekG2212 the LordG2962, ifG1487 haplyG686 they might feelG5584 after himG846, andG2532 find himG2147, thoughG2544 he beG5225 notG3756 farG3112 fromG575 everyG1538 oneG1520 of usG2257:28ForG1063 inG1722 himG846 we liveG2198, andG2532 moveG2795, andG2532 have our beingG2070; asG5613 certainG5100 alsoG2532 of yourG5209 ownG2596 poetsG4163 have saidG2046, ForG1063 we areG2070 alsoG2532 hisG5120 offspringG1085.29Forasmuch thenG3767 as we areG5225 the offspringG1085 of GodG2316, we oughtG3784 notG3756 to thinkG3543 that the GodheadG2304 isG1511 likeG3664 unto goldG5557, orG2228 silverG696, orG2228 stoneG3037, gravenG5480 by artG5078 andG2532 man'sG444 deviceG1761.30AndG3303 G3767 the timesG5550 of this ignoranceG52 GodG2316 winked atG5237; but nowG3569 commandethG3853 allG3956 menG444 every whereG3837 to repentG3340:31BecauseG1360 he hath appointedG2476 a dayG2250, inG1722 the whichG3739 he willG3195 judgeG2919 the worldG3625 inG1722 righteousnessG1343 byG1722 that manG435 whomG3739 he hath ordainedG3724; whereof he hath givenG3930 assuranceG4102 unto allG3956 men, in that he hath raisedG450 himG846 fromG1537 the deadG3498.32AndG1161 when they heardG191 of the resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498, someG3303 mockedG5512: andG1161 others saidG2036, We will hearG191 theeG4675 againG3825 ofG4012 thisG5127 matter.33SoG2532 G3779 PaulG3972 departedG1831 fromG1537 amongG3319 themG846.34HowbeitG1161 certainG5100 menG435 claveG2853 unto himG846, and believedG4100: amongG1722 the whichG3739 G2532 was DionysiusG1354 the AreopagiteG698, andG2532 a womanG1135 namedG3686 DamarisG1152, andG2532 othersG2087 withG4862 themG846.
