Acts 13

Ησαν δε εν Αντιοχεια εν τη υπαρχουση εκκλησια προφηται τινες και διδασκαλοι, ο Βαρναβας και Συμεων ο καλουμενος Νιγερ, και Λουκιος ο Κυρηναιος, και Μαναην ο συνανατραφεις μετα του Ηρωδου του τετραρχου, και ο Σαυλος.

Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

Και ενω υπηρετουν εις τον Κυριον και ενηστευον, ειπε το Πνευμα το Αγιον Χωρισατε εις εμε τον Βαρναβαν και τον Σαυλον δια το εργον, εις το οποιον προσεκαλεσα αυτους.

As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.

Τοτε αφου ενηστευσαν και προσευχηθησαν και επεθεσαν τας χειρας επ αυτους, απεστειλαν.

And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.

Ουτοι λοιπον πεμφθεντες υπο του Πνευματος του Αγιου, κατεβησαν εις την Σελευκειαν και εκειθεν απεπλευσαν εις την Κυπρον,

So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.

και οτε ηλθον εις την Σαλαμινα, εκηρυττον τον λογον του Θεου εν ταις συναγωγαις των Ιουδαιων ειχον δε και τον Ιωαννην υπηρετην.

And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to their minister.

Και αφου διηλθον την νησον μεχρι της Παφου, ευρον τινα μαγον ψευδοπροφητην Ιουδαιον ονομαζομενον Βαριησουν,

And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Bar-jesus:

οστις ητο μετα του ανθυπατου Σεργιου Παυλου, ανδρος συνετου. Ουτος προσκαλεσας τον Βαρναβαν και Σαυλον, εζητησε να ακουση τον λογον του Θεου

Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.

ανθιστατο δε εις αυτους Ελυμας ο μαγος, διοτι ουτω μεθερμηνευεται το ονομα αυτου, ζητων να αποτρεψη τον ανθυπατον απο της πιστεως.

But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.

Πλην ο Σαυλος, ο και Παυλος, πλησθεις Πνευματος Αγιου και ατενισας εις αυτον,

Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him,

ειπεν Ω πληρης παντος δολου και πασης ραδιουργιας, υιε του διαβολου, εχθρε πασης δικαιοσυνης, δεν θελεις παυσει διαστρεφων τας ευθειας οδους του Κυριου;

And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?

Και τωρα ιδου, χειρ του Κυριου ειναι κατα σου, και θελεις εισθαι τυφλος, μη βλεπων τον ηλιον μεχρι καιρου. Και παρευθυς επεπεσεν επ αυτον αμαυρωσις και σκοτος, και περιστρεφομενος εζητει χειραγωγους.

And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.

Τοτε ιδων ο ανθυπατος το γεγονος επιστευσεν, εκπληττομενος εις την διδαχην του Κυριου.

Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.

Αποπλευσαντες δε απο της Παφου ο Παυλος και οι περι αυτον ηλθον εις την Περγην της Παμφυλιας ο δε Ιωαννης, χωρισθεις απ αυτων, υπεστρεψεν εις τα Ιεροσολυμα.

Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.

Αυτοι δε περασαντες απο της Περγης, εφθασαν εις Αντιοχειαν της Πισιδιας, και εισελθοντες εις την συναγωγην τη ημερα του σαββατου εκαθησαν.

But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.

Και μετα την αναγνωσιν του νομου και των προφητων απεστειλαν εις αυτους οι αρχισυναγωγοι, λεγοντες Ανδρες αδελφοι, εαν εχητε λογον τινα προτροπης εις τον λαον, λεγετε.

And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.

Σηκωθεις δε ο Παυλος και σεισας την χειρα, ειπεν Ανδρες Ισραηλιται και οι φοβουμενοι τον Θεον, ακουσατε.

Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.

Ο Θεος του λαου τουτου Ισραηλ εξελεξε τους πατερας ημων και υψωσε τον λαον παροικουντα εν γη Αιγυπτου, και μετα βραχιονος υψηλου εξηγαγεν αυτους εξ αυτης,

The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm brought he them out of it.

και εως τεσσαρακοντα ετη υπεφερε τους τροπους αυτων εν τη ερημω,

And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness.

και αφου κατεστρεψεν επτα εθνη εν γη Χανααν, διεμερισεν εις αυτους κατα κληρον την γην αυτων.

And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.

Και μετα ταυτα ως τετρακοσια και πεντηκοντα περιπου ετη εδωκεν εις αυτους κριτας εως Σαμουηλ του προφητου.

And after that he gave unto them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.

Και επειτα εζητησαν βασιλεα, και εδωκεν εις αυτους ο Θεος τον Σαουλ, υιον του Κις, ανδρα εκ της φυλης Βενιαμιν, τεσσαρακοντα ετη

And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.

και μεταστησας αυτον, ανεστησεν εις αυτους βασιλεα τον Δαβιδ, περι του οποιου και ειπε μαρτυρησας Ευρον Δαβιδ τον του Ιεσσαι, ανδρα κατα την καρδιαν μου, οστις θελει καμει παντα τα θεληματα μου.

And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.

Απο του σπερματος τουτου ο Θεος κατα την επαγγελιαν αυτου ανεστησεν εις τον Ισραηλ σωτηρα τον Ιησουν,

Of this man's seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:

αφου ο Ιωαννης προ της ελευσεως αυτου προεκηρυξε βαπτισμα μετανοιας εις παντα τον λαον του Ισραηλ.

When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

Και ενω ο Ιωαννης ετελειονε τον δρομον αυτου, ελεγε Τινα με στοχαζεσθε οτι ειμαι; δεν ειμαι εγω, αλλ ιδου, ερχεται μετ εμε εκεινος, του οποιου δεν ειμαι αξιος να λυσω το υποδημα των ποδων.

And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not he. But, behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.

Ανδρες αδελφοι, υιοι του γενους του Αβρααμ και οι εν υμιν φοβουμενοι τον Θεον, προς εσας απεσταλη ο λογος της σωτηριας ταυτης.

Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.

Διοτι οι κατοικουντες εν Ιερουσαλημ και οι αρχοντες αυτων, μη γνωρισαντες τουτον μηδε τας ρησεις των προφητων, τας αναγινωσκομενας κατα παν σαββατον, επληρωσαν αυτας κριναντες τουτον,

For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.

και μη ευροντες μηδεμιαν αιτιαν θανατου, εζητησαν παρα του Πιλατου να θανατωθη.

And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.

Αφου δε ετελειωσαν παντα τα περι αυτου γεγραμμενα, καταβιβασαντες αυτον απο του ξυλου εθεσαν εις μνημειον.

And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.

Ο Θεος ομως ανεστησεν αυτον εκ νεκρων

But God raised him from the dead:

οστις εφανη επι πολλας ημερας εις τους μετ αυτου αναβαντας απο της Γαλιλαιας εις Ιερουσαλημ, οιτινες ειναι μαρτυρες αυτου προς τον λαον.

And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.

Και ημεις ευαγγελιζομεθα προς εσας την γενομενην εις τους πατερας επαγγελιαν,

And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,

οτι ταυτην ο Θεος εξεπληρωσεν εις ημας τα τεκνα αυτων, αναστησας τον Ιησουν, ως ειναι γεγραμμενον και εν τω ψαλμω τω δευτερω Υιος μου εισαι συ, εγω σημερον σε εγεννησα.

God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.

Οτι δε ανεστησεν αυτον εκ νεκρων, μη μελλοντα πλεον να υποστρεψη εις την διαφθοραν, λεγει ουτως, οτι θελω σας δωσει τα ελεη του Δαβιδ τα πιστα.

And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.

Δια τουτο και εν αλλω ψαλμω λεγει Δεν θελεις αφησει τον οσιον σου να ιδη διαφθοραν.

Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

Διοτι ο μεν Δαβιδ, αφου υπηρετησε την βουλην του Θεου εν τη γενεα αυτου, εκοιμηθη και προσετεθη εις τους πατερας αυτου και ειδε διαφθοραν

For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:

εκεινος ομως, τον οποιον ο Θεος ανεστησε, δεν ειδε διαφθοραν.

But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.

Εστω λοιπον γνωστον εις εσας, ανδρες αδελφοι, οτι δια τουτου κηρυττεται προς εσας αφεσις αμαρτιων.

Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:

Και απο παντων, αφ οσων δεν ηδυνηθητε δια του νομου του Μωυσεως να δικαιωθητε, δια τουτου πας ο πιστευων δικαιουται.

And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.

Βλεπετε λοιπον μη επελθη εφ υμας το λαληθεν υπο των προφητων

Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;

Ιδετε, οι καταφρονηται, και θαυμασατε και αφανισθητε, διοτι εργον εγω εργαζομαι εν ταις ημεραις υμων, εργον, εις το οποιον δεν θελετε πιστευσει, εαν τις διηγηθη εις εσας.

Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.

Ενω δε εξηρχοντο εκ της συναγωγης των Ιουδαιων, παρεκαλουν τα εθνη να κηρυχθωσιν εις αυτους οι λογοι ουτοι το ακολουθον σαββατον.

And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.

Και αφου ελυθη η συναγωγη, πολλοι εκ των Ιουδαιων και των ευσεβων προσηλυτων ηκολουθησαν τον Παυλον και τον Βαρναβαν, οιτινες λαλουντες προς αυτους, επειθον αυτους να εμμενωσιν εις την χαριν του Θεου.

Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.

το δε ερχομενον σαββατον σχεδον ολη η πολις συνηχθη δια να ακουσωσι τον λογον του Θεου.

And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.

Ιδοντες δε οι Ιουδαιοι τα πλη0η, επλησθηααν φθονου και ηναντιουντο εις τα υπο του Παυλου λεγομενα, αντιλεγοντες και βλασφημουντες.

But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.

Ο Παυλος δε και ο Βαρναβας, λαλουντες μετα παρρησιας, ειπον Εις εσας πρωτον ητο αναγκαιον να λαληθη ο λογος του Θεου αλλ επειδη απορριπτετε αυτον και δεν κρινετε εαυτους αξιους της αιωνιου ζωης, ιδου, στρεφομεθα εις τα εθνη

Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.

διοτι ουτω προσεταξεν ημας ο Κυριος, λεγων Σε εθεσα φως των εθνων, δια να ησαι προς σωτηριαν εως εσχατου της γης.

For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.

Και οι εθνικοι ακουσαντες εχαιρον και εδοξαζον τον λογον του Κυριου, και επιστευσαν οσοι ησαν ωρισμενοι δια την αιωνιον ζωην

And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.

και ο λογος του Κυριου διεδιδετο δι ολου του τοπου.

And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.

Οι δε Ιουδαιοι παρεκινησαν τας ευλαβεις και επισημους γυναικας και τους πρωτους της πολεως και διηγειραν διωγμον κατα του Παυλου και του Βαρναβα, και εξεβαλον αυτους απο των οριων αυτων.

But the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them out of their coasts.

Εκεινοι δε εκτιναξαντες τον κονιορτον των ποδων αυτων επ αυτους, ηλθον εις το Ικονιον.

But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came unto Iconium.

Και οι μαθηται επληρουντο χαρας και Πνευματος Αγιου.

And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost.
