1: Having passed through_G1353 then_G1161 -_G3588 Amphipolis_G0295 and_G2532 -_G3588 Apollonia,_G0624 they came_G2064 to_G1519 Thessalonica,_G2332 where_G3699 was_G1510 a synagogue_G4864 of the_G3588 Jews._G2453

2: According to_G2596 now_G1161 the_G3588 custom_G1486 -_G3588 with Paul,_G3972 he went in_G1525 to_G4314 them,_G0846 and_G2532 for_G1909 Sabbaths_G4521 three_G5140 he reasoned_G1256 with them_G0846 from_G0575 the_G3588 Scriptures,_G1124

3: opening_G1272 and_G2532 setting forth_G3908 that_G3754 the_G3588 Christ_G5547 it behooved_G1163 to have suffered,_G3958 and_G2532 to have risen_G0450 out from_G1537 [the] dead,_G3498 and_G2532 that_G3754 this_G3778 is_G1510 the_G3588 Christ_G5547 -_G3588 Jesus,_G2424 whom_G3739 I_G1473 preach_G2605 to you._G4771

4: And_G2532 some_G5100 of_G1537 them_G0846 were obedient_G3982 and_G2532 joined themselves_G4345 -_G3588 to Paul_G3972 and_G2532 -_G3588 to Silas,_G4609 -_G3588 along with_G5037 worshipping_G4576 Greeks_G1672 a multitude_G4128 great,_G4183 women_G1135 then_G5037 of the_G3588 leading_G4413 not_G3756 a few._G3641

5: Having become jealous_G2206 now_G1161 the_G3588 Jews,_G2453 and_G2532 having taken to [them]_G4355 of the_G3588 market-loungers_G0060 men_G0435 certain_G5100 wicked,_G4190 and_G2532 having collected a crowd,_G3792 they set in uproar_G2350 the_G3588 city;_G4172 and_G2532 having assailed_G2186 the_G3588 house_G3614 of Jason,_G2394 they were seeking_G2212 them_G0846 to bring out_G4254 to_G1519 the_G3588 people._G1218

6: Not_G3361 having found_G2147 however_G1161 them,_G0846 they dragged_G4951 Jason_G2394 and_G2532 certain_G5100 brothers_G0080 before_G1909 the_G3588 city authorities,_G4173 crying out_G0994 -,_G3754 The [ones]_G3588 the_G3588 world_G3625 having upset,_G0387 these_G3778 also_G2532 here_G1759 are come,_G3918

7: whom_G3739 has received_G5264 Jason._G2394 And_G2532 these_G3778 all,_G3956 contrary to_G0561 the_G3588 decrees_G1378 of Caesar_G2541 do,_G4238 king_G0935 another_G2087 proclaiming_G3004 to be:_G1510 Jesus._G2424

8: They stirred up_G5015 then_G1161 the_G3588 crowd,_G3793 and_G2532 the_G3588 city authorities,_G4173 hearing_G0191 these things._G3778

9: And_G2532 having taken_G2983 -_G3588 security_G2425 from_G3844 -_G3588 Jason_G2394 and_G2532 the_G3588 rest,_G3062 they let go_G0630 them._G0846

10: -_G3588 And_G1161 the brothers_G0080 immediately_G2112 by_G1223 night_G3571 sent away_G1599 -_G3588 both_G5037 Paul_G3972 and_G2532 -_G3588 Silas_G4609 to_G1519 Berea,_G0960 who_G3748 having arrived,_G3854 into_G1519 the_G3588 synagogue_G4864 of the_G3588 Jews_G2453 went._G0549

11: These_G3778 now_G1161 were_G1510 more noble_G2104 than those_G3588 in_G1722 Thessalonica,_G2332 who_G3748 received_G1209 the_G3588 word_G3056 with_G3326 all_G3956 readiness,_G4288 on the_G3588 every_G2596 day_G2250 examining_G0350 the_G3588 Scriptures_G1124 if_G1487 were_G2192 these things_G3778 so._G3779

12: Many_G4183 indeed_G3303 therefore_G3767 of_G1537 them_G0846 believed,_G4100 and_G2532 of the_G3588 Grecian_G1674 women_G1135 -_G3588 prominent_G2158 and_G2532 men_G0435 not_G3756 a few._G3641

13: When_G5613 however_G1161 knew_G1097 those_G3588 from_G0575 -_G3588 Thessalonica_G2332 Jews_G2453 that_G3754 also_G2532 in_G1722 -_G3588 Berea_G0960 was proclaimed_G2605 by_G5259 -_G3588 Paul_G3972 the_G3588 word_G3056 -_G3588 of God,_G2316 they came_G2064 there also,_G2546 stirring up_G4531 and_G2532 agitating_G5015 the_G3588 crowds._G3793

14: Immediately_G2112 also_G1161 then,_G5119 -_G3588 Paul_G3972 sent away_G1821 the_G3588 brothers_G0080 to go_G4198 as_G2193 to_G1909 the_G3588 sea;_G2281 remained_G5278 but_G5037 -_G3588 both_G5037 Silas_G4609 and_G2532 -_G3588 Timothy_G5095 there._G1563

15: Those_G3588 now_G1161 escorting_G2525 -_G3588 Paul_G3972 brought [him]_G0071 unto_G2193 Athens;_G0116 and_G2532 having received_G2983 a command_G1785 unto_G4314 -_G3588 Silas_G4609 and_G2532 -_G3588 Timothy_G5095 that_G2443 as_G5613 quickly as possible_G5033 they should come_G2064 to_G4314 him,_G0846 they departed._G1826

16: In_G1722 now_G1161 -_G3588 Athens,_G0116 waiting for_G1551 them_G0846 -_G3588 of Paul,_G3972 was provoked_G3947 the_G3588 spirit_G4151 of him_G0846 in_G1722 him,_G0846 seeing_G2334 utterly idolatrous_G2712 to be_G1510 the_G3588 city._G4172

17: He was reasoning_G1256 indeed_G3303 therefore_G3767 in_G1722 the_G3588 synagogue_G4864 with the_G3588 Jews_G2453 and_G2532 those_G3588 worshiping,_G4576 and_G2532 in_G1722 the_G3588 marketplace_G0058 on_G2596 every_G3956 day_G2250 with_G4314 those_G3588 meeting [him]._G3909

18: Some_G5100 then_G1161 also_G2532 of the_G3588 Epicureans_G1946 and_G2532 Stoics,_G4770 philosophers,_G5386 encountered_G4820 him._G0846 And_G2532 some_G5100 were saying,_G2036 What_G5101 -_G0302 may desire_G2309 of the_G3588 babbler_G4691 this_G3778 to say?_G3004 Others_G3588 however,_G1161 Of foreign_G3581 gods_G1140 he seems_G1380 a proclaimer_G2604 to be,_G1510 because_G3754 -_G3588 Jesus_G2424 and_G2532 the_G3588 resurrection_G0386 he was proclaiming the gospel of._G2097

19: Having taken hold_G1949 also_G5037 of him,_G0846 to_G1909 the_G3588 Ares_G0697 Hill_G0697 they brought [him],_G0071 saying,_G3004 Are we able_G1410 to know_G1097 what [is]_G5101 the_G3588 new_G2537 this,_G3778 which_G3588 by_G5259 you_G4771 is spoken,_G2980 teaching?_G1322

20: Strange things_G3579 for_G1063 some_G5100 you are bringing_G1533 to_G1519 the_G3588 ears_G0189 of us._G1473 We resolve_G1014 therefore_G3767 to know_G1097 what_G5101 wish_G2309 these things_G3778 to be._G1510

21: [The] Athenians_G0117 now_G1161 all,_G3956 and_G2532 the_G3588 visiting_G1927 strangers,_G3581 in_G1519 nothing_G3762 else_G2087 spent their time_G2119 than_G2228 to tell_G3004 something_G5100 and_G2228 to hear_G0191 something_G5100 new._G2537

22: Having stood_G2476 then_G1161 -_G3588 Paul_G3972 in_G1722 [the] midst_G3319 of the_G3588 Ares_G0697 Hill,_G0697 he was saying,_G5346 Men,_G0435 Athenians,_G0117 in_G2596 all things_G3956 as_G5613 very religious_G1174 you_G4771 I behold._G2334

23: Passing through_G1330 for_G1063 and_G2532 beholding_G0333 the_G3588 objects of worship_G4574 of you,_G4771 I found_G2147 even_G2532 an altar_G1041 on_G1722 which_G3739 had been inscribed:_G1924 To an unknown_G0057 God._G2316 Whom_G3739 therefore_G3767 not knowing_G0050 you worship,_G2151 Him_G3778 I_G1473 proclaim_G2605 to you._G4771

24: The_G3588 God_G2316 -_G3588 having made_G4160 the_G3588 world_G2889 and_G2532 all things_G3956 that [are]_G3588 in_G1722 it,_G0846 He_G3778 of heaven_G3772 and_G2532 earth_G1093 being_G5225 Lord,_G2962 not_G3756 in_G1722 hand-made_G5499 temples_G3485 dwells,_G2730

25: nor_G3761 by_G5259 hands_G5495 of men_G0442 is He served,_G2323 as needing_G4326 anything,_G5100 Himself_G0846 giving_G1325 to all_G3956 life_G2222 and_G2532 breath,_G4157 and_G2532 the_G3588 all;_G3956

26: He made_G4160 then_G5037 of_G1537 one,_G1520 every_G3956 nation_G1484 of men,_G0444 to dwell_G2730 upon_G1909 all_G3956 the face_G4383 of the_G3588 earth,_G1093 having determined_G3724 [the] appointed_G4367 times_G2540 and_G2532 the_G3588 boundaries_G3734 of the_G3588 habitation_G2733 of them,_G0846

27: to seek_G2212 -_G3588 God,_G2316 if_G1487 perhaps_G0687 indeed_G1065 they might palpate for_G5584 Him,_G0846 and_G2532 might find Him._G2147 And_G2532 indeed,_G1065 not_G3756 far_G3112 from_G0575 one_G1520 each_G1538 of us_G1473 He is._G5225

28: In_G1722 Him_G0846 for_G1063 we live_G2198 and_G2532 move_G2795 and_G2532 are._G1510 As_G5613 also_G2532 some_G5100 of the_G3588 among_G2596 you_G4771 poets_G4163 have said,_G2046 Of [Him]_G3588 for_G1063 also_G2532 offspring_G1085 we are._G1510

29: Offspring_G1085 therefore_G3767 being_G5225 -_G3588 of God,_G2316 not_G3756 we ought_G3784 to consider_G3543 to gold,_G5557 or_G2228 to silver,_G0696 or_G2228 to stone,_G3037 a graven thing,_G5480 of craft_G5078 and_G2532 imagination_G1761 of man,_G0444 the_G3588 Divine Being_G2304 to be_G1510 like._G3664

30: The_G3588 indeed_G3303 therefore_G3767 times_G5550 -_G3588 of ignorance_G0052 having overlooked_G5237 -_G3588 God,_G2316 -_G3588 now_G3568 He commands_G3853 -_G3588 men_G0444 all_G3956 everywhere_G3837 to repent,_G3340

31: because_G2530 He set_G2476 a day_G2250 in_G1722 which_G3739 He is about_G3195 to judge_G2919 the_G3588 world_G3625 in_G1722 righteousness,_G1343 by_G1722 a man_G0435 whom_G3739 He appointed,_G3724 a guarantee_G4102 having provided_G3930 to all,_G3956 having raised_G0450 Him_G0846 out from_G1537 [the] dead._G3498

32: Having heard of_G0191 now_G1161 a resurrection_G0386 of [the] dead,_G3498 some_G3588 indeed_G3303 began to mock [him];_G5512 some_G3588 however_G1161 said,_G2036 We will hear_G0191 you_G4771 concerning_G4012 this_G3778 also_G2532 again._G3825

33: Thus_G3779 -_G3588 Paul_G3972 went out_G1831 from_G1537 [the] midst_G3319 of them._G0846

34: Some_G5100 however_G1161 men,_G0435 having joined themselves_G2853 to him,_G0846 believed,_G4100 among_G1722 whom_G3739 also_G2532 [were] Dionysius_G1354 the_G3588 Areopagite,_G0698 and_G2532 a woman_G1135 named_G3686 Damaris,_G1152 and_G2532 others_G2087 with_G4862 them._G0846
