|
|
2. And when Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and questioning with them, {cf15i the brethren} appointed that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.
|
2. When therefore G3767 Paul G3972 and G2532 Barnabas G921 had G1096 no G3756 small G3641 dissension G4714 and G2532 disputation G4803 with G4314 them G846 , they determined G5021 that Paul G3972 and G2532 Barnabas G921 , and G2532 certain G5100 other G243 of G1537 them G846 , should go up G305 to G1519 Jerusalem G2419 unto G4314 the G3588 apostles G652 and G2532 elders G4245 about G4012 this G5127 question G2213 .
|
|
3. They therefore, being brought on their way by the church, passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.
|
3. And G3767 being G3303 brought on their way G4311 by G5259 the G3588 church G1577 , they G3588 passed through G1330 Phoenicia G5403 and G2532 Samaria G4540 , declaring G1555 the G3588 conversion G1995 of the G3588 Gentiles G1484 : and G2532 they caused G4160 great G3173 joy G5479 unto all G3956 the G3588 brethren G80 .
|
|
4. And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church and the apostles and the elders, and they rehearsed all things that God had done with them.
|
4. And G1161 when they were come G3854 to G1519 Jerusalem G2419 , they were received G588 of G5259 the G3588 church G1577 , and G2532 of the G3588 apostles G652 and G2532 elders G4245 , and G5037 they declared G312 all things that G3745 God G2316 had done G4160 with G3326 them G846 .
|
|
5. But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees who believed, saying, It is needful to circumcise them, and to charge them to keep the law of Moses.
|
5. But G1161 there rose up G1817 certain G5100 of G575 the G3588 sect G139 of the G3588 Pharisees G5330 which believed G4100 , saying G3004 , That G3754 it was needful G1163 to circumcise G4059 them G846 , and G5037 to command G3853 them to keep G5083 the G3588 law G3551 of Moses G3475 .
|
|
6. And the apostles and the elders were gathered together to consider of this matter.
|
6. And G1161 the G3588 apostles G652 and G2532 elders G4245 came together G4863 for to consider G1492 of G4012 this G5127 matter G3056 .
|
|
7. And when there had been much questioning, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among you, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
|
7. And G1161 when there had been G1096 much G4183 disputing G4803 , Peter G4074 rose up G450 , and said G2036 unto G4314 them G846 , Men G435 and brethren G80 , ye G5210 know G1987 how that G3754 a good while ago G575 G744 G2250 God G2316 made choice G1586 among G1722 us G2254 , that the G3588 Gentiles G1484 by G1223 my G3450 mouth G4750 should hear G191 the G3588 word G3056 of the G3588 gospel G2098 , and G2532 believe G4100 .
|
|
8. And God, which knoweth the heart, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us;
|
8. And G2532 God G2316 , which knoweth the hearts G2589 , bare them witness G3140 G846 , giving G1325 them G846 the G3588 Holy G40 Ghost G4151 , even as G2531 he did G2532 unto us G2254 ;
|
|
9. and he made no distinction between us and them, cleansing their hearts by faith.
|
9. And G2532 put no difference G1252 G3762 between G3342 G5037 us G2257 and G2532 them G846 , purifying G2511 their G846 hearts G2588 by faith G4102 .
|
|
10. Now therefore why tempt ye God, that ye should put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
|
10. Now G3568 therefore G3767 why G5101 tempt G3985 ye God G2316 , to put G2007 a yoke G2218 upon G1909 the G3588 neck G5137 of the G3588 disciples G3101 , which G3739 neither G3777 our G2257 fathers G3962 nor G3777 we G2249 were able G2480 to bear G941 ?
|
|
11. But we believe that we shall be saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in like manner as they.
|
11. But G235 we believe G4100 that through G1223 the G3588 grace G5485 of the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 we shall be saved G4982 , even as they G2596 G3739 G5158 G2548 .
|
|
12. And all the multitude kept silence; and they hearkened unto Barnabas and Paul rehearsing what signs and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles by them.
|
12. Then G1161 all G3956 the G3588 multitude G4128 kept silence G4601 , and G2532 gave audience G191 to Barnabas G921 and G2532 Paul G3972 , declaring G1834 what G3745 miracles G4592 and G2532 wonders G5059 God G2316 had wrought G4160 among G1722 the G3588 Gentiles G1484 by G1223 them G846 .
|
|
13. And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Brethren, hearken unto me:
|
13. And G1161 after they G846 had held their peace G4601 , James G2385 answered G611 , saying G3004 , Men G435 and brethren G80 , hearken G191 unto me G3450 :
|
|
14. Symeon hath rehearsed how first God did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.
|
14. Simeon G4826 hath declared G1834 how G2531 God G2316 at the first G4412 did visit G1980 the Gentiles G1484 , to take G2983 out of G1537 them a people G2992 for G1909 his G848 name G3686 .
|
|
15. And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
|
15. And G2532 to this G5129 agree G4856 the G3588 words G3056 of the G3588 prophets G4396 ; as G2531 it is written G1125 ,
|
|
16. After these things I will return, And I will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen; And I will build again the ruins thereof, And I will set it up:
|
16. After G3326 this G5023 I will return G390 , and G2532 will build again G456 the G3588 tabernacle G4633 of David G1138 , which is fallen down G4098 ; and G2532 I will build again G456 the G3588 ruins G2679 thereof G846 , and G2532 I will set it up G461 G846 :
|
|
17. That the residue of men may seek after the Lord, And all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called,
|
17. That G3704 the G3588 residue G2645 of men G444 might seek after G1567 G302 the G3588 Lord G2962 , and G2532 all G3956 the G3588 Gentiles G1484 , upon G1909 whom G3739 my G3450 name G3686 is called G1941 , saith G3004 G846 the Lord G2962 , who doeth G4160 all G3956 these things G5023 .
|
|
18. Saith the Lord, who maketh these things known from the beginning of the world.
|
18. Known G1110 unto God G2316 are G2076 all G3956 his G848 works G2041 from G575 the beginning of the world G165 .
|
|
19. Wherefore my judgment is, that we trouble not them which from among the Gentiles turn to God;
|
19. Wherefore G1352 my G1473 sentence is G2919 , that we trouble G3926 not G3361 them , which from G575 among the G3588 Gentiles G1484 are turned G1994 to G1909 God G2316 :
|
|
20. but that we write unto them, that they abstain from the pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from what is strangled, and from blood.
|
20. But G235 that we write G1989 unto them G846 , that they abstain G567 from G575 pollutions G234 of idols G1497 , and G2532 from fornication G4202 , and G2532 from things strangled G4156 , and G2532 from blood G129 .
|
|
21. For Moses from generations of old hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath.
|
21. For G1063 Moses G3475 of old time G1537 G744 G1074 hath G2192 in every city G2596 G4172 them that preach G2784 him G846 , being read G314 in G1722 the G3588 synagogues G4864 every G2596 G3956 sabbath day G4521 .
|
|
22. Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole church, to choose men out of their company, and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; {cf15i namely}, Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:
|
22. Then G5119 pleased G1380 it the G3588 apostles G652 and G2532 elders G4245 , with G4862 the G3588 whole G3650 church G1577 , to send G3992 chosen G1586 men G435 of G1537 their own company G846 to G1519 Antioch G490 with G4862 Paul G3972 and G2532 Barnabas G921 : namely, Judas G2455 surnamed G1941 Barsabas G923 , and G2532 Silas G4609 , chief G2233 men G435 among G1722 the G3588 brethren G80 :
|
|
23. and they wrote {cf15i thus} by them, The apostles and the elder brethren unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, greeting:
|
23. And they wrote G1125 letters by G1223 them G848 after this manner G3592 ; The G3588 apostles G652 and elders G4245 and G2532 brethren G80 send greeting G5463 unto the G3588 brethren G80 which G3588 are of G1537 the Gentiles G1484 in G2596 Antioch G490 and G2532 Syria G4947 and G2532 Cilicia G2791 .
|
|
24. Forasmuch as we have heard that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls; to whom we gave no commandment;
|
24. Forasmuch as G1894 we have heard G191 , that G3754 certain G5100 which went out G1831 from G1537 us G2257 have troubled G5015 you G5209 with words G3056 , subverting G384 your G5216 souls G5590 , saying G3004 , Ye must be circumcised G4059 , and G2532 keep G5083 the G3588 law G3551 : to whom G3739 we gave no such commandment G1291 G3756 :
|
|
25. it seemed good unto us, having come to one accord, to choose out men and send them unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,
|
25. It seemed good G1380 unto us G2254 , being assembled G1096 with one accord G3661 , to send G3992 chosen G1586 men G435 unto G4314 you G5209 with G4862 our G2257 beloved G27 Barnabas G921 and G2532 Paul G3972 ,
|
|
26. men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
|
26. Men G444 that have hazarded G3860 their G848 lives G5590 for G5228 the G3588 name G3686 of our G2257 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 .
|
|
27. We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who themselves also shall tell you the same things by word of mouth.
|
27. We have sent G649 therefore G3767 Judas G2455 and G2532 Silas G4609 , who G846 shall also G2532 tell G518 you the G3588 same things G846 by mouth G1223 G3056 .
|
|
28. For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;
|
28. For G1063 it seemed good G1380 to the G3588 Holy G40 Ghost G4151 , and G2532 to us G2254 , to lay G2007 upon you G5213 no G3367 greater G4119 burden G922 than G4133 these G5130 necessary things G1876 ;
|
|
29. that ye abstain from things sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication; from which if ye keep yourselves, it shall be well with you. Fare ye well.
|
29. That ye abstain G567 from meats offered to idols G1494 , and G2532 from blood G129 , and G2532 from things strangled G4156 , and G2532 from fornication G4202 : from G1537 which G3739 if ye keep G1301 yourselves G1438 , ye shall do G4238 well G2095 , Fare ye well G4517 .
|
|
30. So they, when they were dismissed, came down to Antioch; and having gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle.
|
30. So G3767 when they G3588 were G3303 dismissed G630 , they came G2064 to G1519 Antioch G490 : and G2532 when they had gathered the multitude together G4863 G3588 G4128 , they delivered G1929 the G3588 epistle G1992 :
|
|
31. And when they had read it, they rejoiced for the consolation.
|
31. Which when G1161 they had read G314 , they rejoiced G5463 for G1909 the G3588 consolation G3874 .
|
|
32. And Judas and Silas, being themselves also prophets, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.
|
32. And G5037 Judas G2455 and G2532 Silas G4609 , being G5607 prophets G4396 also G2532 themselves G848 , exhorted G3870 the G3588 brethren G80 with G1223 many G4183 words G3056 , and G2532 confirmed G1991 them.
|
|
33. And after they had spent some time {cf15i there}, they were dismissed in peace from the brethren unto those that had sent them forth.
|
33. And G1161 after they had tarried G4160 there a space G5550 , they were let go G630 in G3326 peace G1515 from G575 the G3588 brethren G80 unto G4314 the G3588 apostles G652 .

34. vnumber="34"/>
|
34. Notwithstanding G1161 it pleased G1380 Silas G4609 to abide G1961 there G847 still.
|
|
35. But Paul and Barnabas tarried in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
|
35. Paul G3972 also G1161 and G2532 Barnabas G921 continued G1304 in G1722 Antioch G490 , teaching G1321 and G2532 preaching G2097 the G3588 word G3056 of the G3588 Lord G2962 , with G3326 many G4183 others G2087 also G2532 .
|
|
36. And after some days Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us return now and visit the brethren in every city wherein we proclaimed the word of the Lord, {cf15i and see} how they fare.
|
36. And G1161 some G5100 days G2250 after G3326 Paul G3972 said G2036 unto G4314 Barnabas G921 , Let us go again G1994 G1211 and visit G1980 our G2257 brethren G80 in G2596 every G3956 city G4172 where G1722 G3739 we have preached G2605 the G3588 word G3056 of the G3588 Lord G2962 , and see how G4459 they do G2192 .
|
|
37. And Barnabas was minded to take with them John also, who was called Mark.
|
37. And G1161 Barnabas G921 determined G1011 to take with G4838 them John G2491 , whose surname was G2564 Mark G3138 .
|
|
38. But Paul thought not good to take with them him who withdrew from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.
|
38. But G1161 Paul G3972 thought not good G515 G3361 to take him with G4838 G5126 them , who departed G868 from G575 them G846 from G575 Pamphylia G3828 , and G2532 went not with G4905 G3361 them G846 to G1519 the G3588 work G2041 .
|
|
39. And there arose a sharp contention, so that they parted asunder one from the other, and Barnabas took Mark with him, and sailed away unto Cyprus;
|
39. And G3767 the contention was so sharp between G3948 G1096 them, that G5620 they G846 departed asunder G673 one from the other G575 G240 : and G5037 so Barnabas G921 took G3880 Mark G3138 , and sailed G1602 unto G1519 Cyprus G2954 ;
|
|
40. but Paul chose Silas, and went forth, being commended by the brethren to the grace of the Lord.
|
40. And G1161 Paul G3972 chose G1951 Silas G4609 , and departed G1831 , being recommended G3860 by G5259 the G3588 brethren G80 unto the G3588 grace G5485 of God G2316 .

41. And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.
