27001  Acts 3:4  And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.

27016  Acts 3:19  Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; 
27017  Acts 3:20  And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: 
27018  Acts 3:21  Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

27025  Acts 4:2  Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead. 
27026  Acts 4:3  And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide. 
27027  Acts 4:4  Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand. 
27028  Acts 4:5  And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes, 
27029  Acts 4:6  And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem. 
27030  Acts 4:7  And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this? 
27031  Acts 4:8  Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel, 
27032  Acts 4:9  If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole; 
27033  Acts 4:10  Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole. 
27034  Acts 4:11  This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. 
27035  Acts 4:12  Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. 
27036  Acts 4:13  Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus. 
27037  Acts 4:14  And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it. 
27038  Acts 4:15  But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves, 
27039  Acts 4:16  Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it. 
27040  Acts 4:17  But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name. 
27041  Acts 4:18  And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus. 
27042  Acts 4:19  But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye. 
27043  Acts 4:20  For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard. 
27044  Acts 4:21  So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorified God for that which was done. 
27045  Acts 4:22  For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was shewed. 
27046  Acts 4:23  And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them. 
27047  Acts 4:24  And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is: 
27048  Acts 4:25  Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things? 
27049  Acts 4:26  The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ. 
27050  Acts 4:27  For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together, 
27051  Acts 4:28  For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done. 
27052  Acts 4:29  And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word, 
27053  Acts 4:30  By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus. 
27054  Acts 4:31  And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness. 
27055  Acts 4:32  And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common. 
27056  Acts 4:33  And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all. 
27057  Acts 4:34  Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, 
27058  Acts 4:35  And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need. 
27059  Acts 4:36  And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus, 
27060  Acts 4:37  Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles' feet. 
27061  Acts 5:1  But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession, 
27062  Acts 5:2  And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet. 
27063  Acts 5:3  But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land? 
27064  Acts 5:4  Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God. 
27065  Acts 5:5  And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things. 
27066  Acts 5:6  And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him. 
27067  Acts 5:7  And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in. 
27068  Acts 5:8  And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much. 
27069  Acts 5:9  Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out. 
27070  Acts 5:10  Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband. 
27071  Acts 5:11  And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things. 
27072  Acts 5:12  And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch. 
27073  Acts 5:13  And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them. 
27074  Acts 5:14  And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.) 
27075  Acts 5:15  Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them. 
27076  Acts 5:16  There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one. 
27077  Acts 5:17  Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him, (which is the sect of the Sadducees,) and were filled with indignation, 
27078  Acts 5:18  And laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison. 
27079  Acts 5:19  But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said, 
27080  Acts 5:20  Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life. 
27081  Acts 5:21  And when they heard that, they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought. 
27082  Acts 5:22  But when the officers came, and found them not in the prison, they returned, and told, 
27083  Acts 5:23  Saying, The prison truly found we shut with all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within. 
27084  Acts 5:24  Now when the high priest and the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these things, they doubted of them whereunto this would grow. 
27085  Acts 5:25  Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people. 
27086  Acts 5:26  Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: for they feared the people, lest they should have been stoned. 
27087  Acts 5:27  And when they had brought them, they set them before the council: and the high priest asked them, 
27088  Acts 5:28  Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us. 
27089  Acts 5:29  Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men. 
27090  Acts 5:30  The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree. 
27091  Acts 5:31  Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. 
27092  Acts 5:32  And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him. 
27093  Acts 5:33  When they heard that, they were cut to the heart, and took counsel to slay them. 
27094  Acts 5:34  Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space; 
27095  Acts 5:35  And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men. 
27096  Acts 5:36  For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought. 
27097  Acts 5:37  After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, even as many as obeyed him, were dispersed. 
27098  Acts 5:38  And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought: 
27099  Acts 5:39  But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God. 
27100  Acts 5:40  And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. 
27101  Acts 5:41  And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name. 
27102  Acts 5:42  And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ. 
27103  Acts 6:1  And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration. 
27104  Acts 6:2  Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables. 
27105  Acts 6:3  Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business. 
27106  Acts 6:4  But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word. 
27107  Acts 6:5  And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch: 
27108  Acts 6:6  Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them. 
27109  Acts 6:7  And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith. 
27110  Acts 6:8  And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people. 
27111  Acts 6:9  Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the synagogue of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen. 
27112  Acts 6:10  And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake. 
27113  Acts 6:11  Then they suborned men, which said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God. 
27114  Acts 6:12  And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him, and caught him, and brought him to the council, 
27115  Acts 6:13  And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law: 
27116  Acts 6:14  For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered us. 
27117  Acts 6:15  And all that sat in the council, looking stedfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel. 
27118  Acts 7:1  Then said the high priest, Are these things so? 
27119  Acts 7:2  And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken; The God of glory appeared unto our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charran, 
27120  Acts 7:3  And said unto him, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall shew thee. 
27121  Acts 7:4  Then came he out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land, wherein ye now dwell. 
27122  Acts 7:5  And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child. 
27123  Acts 7:6  And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years. 
27124  Acts 7:7  And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place. 
27125  Acts 7:8  And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so Abraham begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat the twelve patriarchs. 
27126  Acts 7:9  And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him, 
27127  Acts 7:10  And delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house. 
27128  Acts 7:11  Now there came a dearth over all the land of Egypt and Chanaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance. 
27129  Acts 7:12  But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first. 
27130  Acts 7:13  And at the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph's kindred was made known unto Pharaoh. 
27131  Acts 7:14  Then sent Joseph, and called his father Jacob to him, and all his kindred, threescore and fifteen souls. 
27132  Acts 7:15  So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers, 
27133  Acts 7:16  And were carried over into Sychem, and laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor the father of Sychem. 
27134  Acts 7:17  But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt, 
27135  Acts 7:18  Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph. 
27136  Acts 7:19  The same dealt subtilly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live. 
27137  Acts 7:20  In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father's house three months: 
27138  Acts 7:21  And when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son. 
27139  Acts 7:22  And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds. 
27140  Acts 7:23  And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel. 
27141  Acts 7:24  And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian: 
27142  Acts 7:25  For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not. 
27143  Acts 7:26  And the next day he shewed himself unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another? 
27144  Acts 7:27  But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us? 
27145  Acts 7:28  Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday? 
27146  Acts 7:29  Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons. 
27147  Acts 7:30  And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush. 
27148  Acts 7:31  When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold it, the voice of the Lord came unto him, 
27149  Acts 7:32  Saying, I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and durst not behold. 
27150  Acts 7:33  Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground. 
27151  Acts 7:34  I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send thee into Egypt. 
27152  Acts 7:35  This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel which appeared to him in the bush. 
27153  Acts 7:36  He brought them out, after that he had shewed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years. 
27154  Acts 7:37  This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear. 
27155  Acts 7:38  This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us: 
27156  Acts 7:39  To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt, 
27157  Acts 7:40  Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for as for this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him. 
27158  Acts 7:41  And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands. 
27159  Acts 7:42  Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness? 
27160  Acts 7:43  Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon. 
27161  Acts 7:44  Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen. 
27162  Acts 7:45  Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David; 
27163  Acts 7:46  Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob. 
27164  Acts 7:47  But Solomon built him an house. 
27165  Acts 7:48  Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet, 
27166  Acts 7:49  Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest? 
27167  Acts 7:50  Hath not my hand made all these things? 
27168  Acts 7:51  Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye. 
27169  Acts 7:52  Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers: 
27170  Acts 7:53  Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it. 
27171  Acts 7:54  When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth. 
27172  Acts 7:55  But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, 
27173  Acts 7:56  And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God. 
27174  Acts 7:57  Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord, 
27175  Acts 7:58  And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose name was Saul. 
27176  Acts 7:59  And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. 
27177  Acts 7:60  And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep. 
27178  Acts 8:1  And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles. 
27179  Acts 8:2  And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him. 
27180  Acts 8:3  As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison. 
27181  Acts 8:4  Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word. 
27182  Acts 8:5  Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them. 
27183  Acts 8:6  And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 
27184  Acts 8:7  For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed with them: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame, were healed. 
27185  Acts 8:8  And there was great joy in that city. 
27186  Acts 8:9  But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one: 
27187  Acts 8:10  To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God. 
27188  Acts 8:11  And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries. 
27189  Acts 8:12  But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. 
27190  Acts 8:13  Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which were done. 
27191  Acts 8:14  Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: 
27192  Acts 8:15  Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: 
27193  Acts 8:16  (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) 
27194  Acts 8:17  Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost. 
27195  Acts 8:18  And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, 
27196  Acts 8:19  Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost. 
27197  Acts 8:20  But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money. 
27198  Acts 8:21  Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God. 
27199  Acts 8:22  Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee. 
27200  Acts 8:23  For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity. 
27201  Acts 8:24  Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the Lord for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me. 
27202  Acts 8:25  And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the Samaritans. 
27203  Acts 8:26  And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is desert. 
27204  Acts 8:27  And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship, 
27205  Acts 8:28  Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet. 
27206  Acts 8:29  Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot. 
27207  Acts 8:30  And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest? 
27208  Acts 8:31  And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him. 
27209  Acts 8:32  The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth: 
27210  Acts 8:33  In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth. 
27211  Acts 8:34  And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man? 
27212  Acts 8:35  Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. 
27213  Acts 8:36  And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? 
27214  Acts 8:37  And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. 
27215  Acts 8:38  And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. 
27216  Acts 8:39  And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. 
27217  Acts 8:40  But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea. 
27218  Acts 9:1  And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest, 
27219  Acts 9:2  And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem. 
27220  Acts 9:3  And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven: 
27221  Acts 9:4  And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? 
27222  Acts 9:5  And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. 
27223  Acts 9:6  And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do. 
27224  Acts 9:7  And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man. 
27225  Acts 9:8  And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus. 
27226  Acts 9:9  And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink. 
27227  Acts 9:10  And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord. 
27228  Acts 9:11  And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth, 
27229  Acts 9:12  And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hand on him, that he might receive his sight. 
27230  Acts 9:13  Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem: 
27231  Acts 9:14  And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name. 
27232  Acts 9:15  But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel: 
27233  Acts 9:16  For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake. 
27234  Acts 9:17  And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost. 
27235  Acts 9:18  And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized. 
27236  Acts 9:19  And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus. 
27237  Acts 9:20  And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God. 
27238  Acts 9:21  But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests? 
27239  Acts 9:22  But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ. 
27240  Acts 9:23  And after that many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill him: 
27241  Acts 9:24  But their laying await was known of Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him. 
27242  Acts 9:25  Then the disciples took him by night, and let him down by the wall in a basket. 
27243  Acts 9:26  And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to join himself to the disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and believed not that he was a disciple. 
27244  Acts 9:27  But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared unto them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus. 
27245  Acts 9:28  And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem. 
27246  Acts 9:29  And he spake boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Grecians: but they went about to slay him. 
27247  Acts 9:30  Which when the brethren knew, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus. 
27248  Acts 9:31  Then had the churches rest throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied. 
27249  Acts 9:32  And it came to pass, as Peter passed throughout all quarters, he came down also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda. 
27250  Acts 9:33  And there he found a certain man named AEneas, which had kept his bed eight years, and was sick of the palsy. 
27251  Acts 9:34  And Peter said unto him, AEneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately. 
27252  Acts 9:35  And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron saw him, and turned to the Lord. 
27253  Acts 9:36  Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did. 
27254  Acts 9:37  And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber. 
27255  Acts 9:38  And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them. 
27256  Acts 9:39  Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them. 
27257  Acts 9:40  But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up. 
27258  Acts 9:41  And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive. 
27259  Acts 9:42  And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord. 
27260  Acts 9:43  And it came to pass, that he tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon a tanner. 
27261  Acts 10:1  There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band, 
27262  Acts 10:2  A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway. 
27263  Acts 10:3  He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius. 
27264  Acts 10:4  And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God. 
27265  Acts 10:5  And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter: 
27266  Acts 10:6  He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do. 
27267  Acts 10:7  And when the angel which spake unto Cornelius was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually; 
27268  Acts 10:8  And when he had declared all these things unto them, he sent them to Joppa. 
27269  Acts 10:9  On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour: 
27270  Acts 10:10  And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance, 
27271  Acts 10:11  And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth: 
27272  Acts 10:12  Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. 
27273  Acts 10:13  And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat. 
27274  Acts 10:14  But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean. 
27275  Acts 10:15  And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. 
27276  Acts 10:16  This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven. 
27277  Acts 10:17  Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate, 
27278  Acts 10:18  And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there. 
27279  Acts 10:19  While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee. 
27280  Acts 10:20  Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them. 
27281  Acts 10:21  Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what is the cause wherefore ye are come? 
27282  Acts 10:22  And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee. 
27283  Acts 10:23  Then called he them in, and lodged them. And on the morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied him. 
27284  Acts 10:24  And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends. 
27285  Acts 10:25  And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him. 
27286  Acts 10:26  But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man. 
27287  Acts 10:27  And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together. 
27288  Acts 10:28  And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean. 
27289  Acts 10:29  Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me? 
27290  Acts 10:30  And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing, 
27291  Acts 10:31  And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God. 
27292  Acts 10:32  Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he cometh, shall speak unto thee. 
27293  Acts 10:33  Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded thee of God. 
27294  Acts 10:34  Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: 
27295  Acts 10:35  But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. 
27296  Acts 10:36  The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:) 
27297  Acts 10:37  That word, I say, ye know, which was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached; 
27298  Acts 10:38  How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him. 
27299  Acts 10:39  And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree: 
27300  Acts 10:40  Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly; 
27301  Acts 10:41  Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead. 
27302  Acts 10:42  And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead. 
27303  Acts 10:43  To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins. 
27304  Acts 10:44  While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. 
27305  Acts 10:45  And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. 
27306  Acts 10:46  For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, 
27307  Acts 10:47  Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? 
27308  Acts 10:48  And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days. 
27309  Acts 11:1  And the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God. 
27310  Acts 11:2  And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him, 
27311  Acts 11:3  Saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them. 
27312  Acts 11:4  But Peter rehearsed the matter from the beginning, and expounded it by order unto them, saying, 
27313  Acts 11:5  I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me: 
27314  Acts 11:6  Upon the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and saw fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. 
27315  Acts 11:7  And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat. 
27316  Acts 11:8  But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth. 
27317  Acts 11:9  But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. 
27318  Acts 11:10  And this was done three times: and all were drawn up again into heaven. 
27319  Acts 11:11  And, behold, immediately there were three men already come unto the house where I was, sent from Caesarea unto me. 
27320  Acts 11:12  And the spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered into the man's house: 
27321  Acts 11:13  And he shewed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter; 
27322  Acts 11:14  Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved. 
27323  Acts 11:15  And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning. 
27324  Acts 11:16  Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost. 
27325  Acts 11:17  Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God? 
27326  Acts 11:18  When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life. 
27327  Acts 11:19  Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only. 
27328  Acts 11:20  And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they were come to Antioch, spake unto the Grecians, preaching the Lord Jesus. 
27329  Acts 11:21  And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number believed, and turned unto the Lord. 
27330  Acts 11:22  Then tidings of these things came unto the ears of the church which was in Jerusalem: and they sent forth Barnabas, that he should go as far as Antioch. 
27331  Acts 11:23  Who, when he came, and had seen the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they would cleave unto the Lord. 
27332  Acts 11:24  For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord. 
27333  Acts 11:25  Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul: 
27334  Acts 11:26  And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. 
27335  Acts 11:27  And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem unto Antioch. 
27336  Acts 11:28  And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by the spirit that there should be great dearth throughout all the world: which came to pass in the days of Claudius Caesar. 
27337  Acts 11:29  Then the disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief unto the brethren which dwelt in Judaea: 
27338  Acts 11:30  Which also they did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul. 
27339  Acts 12:1  Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. 
27340  Acts 12:2  And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. 
27341  Acts 12:3  And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.) 
27342  Acts 12:4  And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people. 
27343  Acts 12:5  Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him. 
27344  Acts 12:6  And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison. 
27345  Acts 12:7  And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands. 
27346  Acts 12:8  And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And so he did. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me. 
27347  Acts 12:9  And he went out, and followed him; and wist not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision. 
27348  Acts 12:10  When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him. 
27349  Acts 12:11  And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews. 
27350  Acts 12:12  And when he had considered the thing, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying. 
27351  Acts 12:13  And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken, named Rhoda. 
27352  Acts 12:14  And when she knew Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate. 
27353  Acts 12:15  And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel. 
27354  Acts 12:16  But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished. 
27355  Acts 12:17  But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go shew these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place. 
27356  Acts 12:18  Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter. 
27357  Acts 12:19  And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judaea to Caesarea, and there abode. 
27358  Acts 12:20  And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king's chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king's country. 
27359  Acts 12:21  And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them. 
27360  Acts 12:22  And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man. 
27361  Acts 12:23  And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost. 
27362  Acts 12:24  But the word of God grew and multiplied. 
27363  Acts 12:25  And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark. 
27364  Acts 13:1  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. 
27365  Acts 13:2  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. 
27366  Acts 13:3  And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away. 
27367  Acts 13:4  So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus. 
27368  Acts 13:5  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. 
27369  Acts 13:6  And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus: 
27370  Acts 13:7  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. 
27371  Acts 13:8  But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith. 
27372  Acts 13:9  Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him, 
27373  Acts 13:10  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? 
27374  Acts 13:11  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. 
27375  Acts 13:12  Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord. 
27376  Acts 13:13  Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem. 
27377  Acts 13:14  But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down. 
27378  Acts 13:15  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. 
27379  Acts 13:16  Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience. 
27380  Acts 13:17  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. 
27381  Acts 13:18  And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness. 
27382  Acts 13:19  And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot. 
27383  Acts 13:20  And after that he gave unto them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet. 
27384  Acts 13:21  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. 
27385  Acts 13:22  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. 
27386  Acts 13:23  Of this man's seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus: 
27387  Acts 13:24  When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. 
27388  Acts 13:25  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. 
27389  Acts 13:26  Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent. 
27390  Acts 13:27  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. 
27391  Acts 13:28  And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain. 
27392  Acts 13:29  And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre. 
27393  Acts 13:30  But God raised him from the dead: 
27394  Acts 13:31  And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people. 
27395  Acts 13:32  And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers, 
27396  Acts 13:33  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. 
27397  Acts 13:34  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. 
27398  Acts 13:35  Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. 
27399  Acts 13:36  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: 
27400  Acts 13:37  But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption. 
27401  Acts 13:38  Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: 
27402  Acts 13:39  And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses. 
27403  Acts 13:40  Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets; 
27404  Acts 13:41  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. 
27405  Acts 13:42  And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath. 
27406  Acts 13:43  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. 
27407  Acts 13:44  And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God. 
27408  Acts 13:45  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. 
27409  Acts 13:46  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. 
27410  Acts 13:47  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. 
27411  Acts 13:48  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. 
27412  Acts 13:49  And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region. 
27413  Acts 13:50  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. 
27414  Acts 13:51  But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came unto Iconium. 
27415  Acts 13:52  And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost. 
27416  Acts 14:1  And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed. 
27417  Acts 14:2  But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren. 
27418  Acts 14:3  Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands. 
27419  Acts 14:4  But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles. 
27420  Acts 14:5  And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them, 
27421  Acts 14:6  They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about: 
27422  Acts 14:7  And there they preached the gospel. 
27423  Acts 14:8  And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked: 
27424  Acts 14:9  The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed, 
27425  Acts 14:10  Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked. 
27426  Acts 14:11  And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men. 
27427  Acts 14:12  And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker. 
27428  Acts 14:13  Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people. 
27429  Acts 14:14  Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out, 
27430  Acts 14:15  And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein: 
27431  Acts 14:16  Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways. 
27432  Acts 14:17  Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness. 
27433  Acts 14:18  And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them. 
27434  Acts 14:19  And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and, having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead. 
27435  Acts 14:20  Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe. 
27436  Acts 14:21  And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch, 
27437  Acts 14:22  Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God. 
27438  Acts 14:23  And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed. 
27439  Acts 14:24  And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia. 
27440  Acts 14:25  And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia: 
27441  Acts 14:26  And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled. 
27442  Acts 14:27  And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles. 
27443  Acts 14:28  And there they abode long time with the disciples. 
27444  Acts 15:1  And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved. 
27445  Acts 15:2  When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question. 
27446  Acts 15:3  And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren. 
27447  Acts 15:4  And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them. 
27448  Acts 15:5  But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses. 
27449  Acts 15:6  And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter. 
27450  Acts 15:7  And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe. 
27451  Acts 15:8  And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us; 
27452  Acts 15:9  And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith. 
27453  Acts 15:10  Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? 
27454  Acts 15:11  But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they. 
27455  Acts 15:12  Then all the multitude kept silence, and gave audience to Barnabas and Paul, declaring what miracles and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles by them. 
27456  Acts 15:13  And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me: 
27457  Acts 15:14  Simeon hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name. 
27458  Acts 15:15  And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written, 
27459  Acts 15:16  After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up: 
27460  Acts 15:17  That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things. 
27461  Acts 15:18  Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world. 
27462  Acts 15:19  Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God: 
27463  Acts 15:20  But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood. 
27464  Acts 15:21  For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day. 
27465  Acts 15:22  Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren: 
27466  Acts 15:23  And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren send greeting unto the brethren which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia: 
27467  Acts 15:24  Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment: 
27468  Acts 15:25  It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul, 
27469  Acts 15:26  Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 
27470  Acts 15:27  We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell you the same things by mouth. 
27471  Acts 15:28  For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things; 
27472  Acts 15:29  That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well. 
27473  Acts 15:30  So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle: 
27474  Acts 15:31  Which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation. 
27475  Acts 15:32  And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them. 
27476  Acts 15:33  And after they had tarried there a space, they were let go in peace from the brethren unto the apostles. 
27477  Acts 15:34  Notwithstanding it pleased Silas to abide there still. 
27478  Acts 15:35  Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also. 
27479  Acts 15:36  And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they do. 
27480  Acts 15:37  And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark. 
27481  Acts 15:38  But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work. 
27482  Acts 15:39  And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed asunder one from the other: and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed unto Cyprus; 
27483  Acts 15:40  And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of God. 
27484  Acts 15:41  And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches. 
27485  Acts 16:1  Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek: 
27486  Acts 16:2  Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium. 
27487  Acts 16:3  Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek. 
27488  Acts 16:4  And as they went through the cities, they delivered them the decrees for to keep, that were ordained of the apostles and elders which were at Jerusalem. 
27489  Acts 16:5  And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in number daily. 
27490  Acts 16:6  Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia, 
27491  Acts 16:7  After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not. 
27492  Acts 16:8  And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas. 
27493  Acts 16:9  And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us. 
27494  Acts 16:10  And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them. 
27495  Acts 16:11  Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next day to Neapolis; 
27496  Acts 16:12  And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia, and a colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days. 
27497  Acts 16:13  And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which resorted thither. 
27498  Acts 16:14  And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul. 
27499  Acts 16:15  And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there. And she constrained us. 
27500  Acts 16:16  And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying: 
27501  Acts 16:17  The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation. 
27502  Acts 16:18  And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour. 
27503  Acts 16:19  And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers, 
27504  Acts 16:20  And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city, 
27505  Acts 16:21  And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans. 
27506  Acts 16:22  And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat them. 
27507  Acts 16:23  And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely: 
27508  Acts 16:24  Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks. 
27509  Acts 16:25  And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them. 
27510  Acts 16:26  And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed. 
27511  Acts 16:27  And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled. 
27512  Acts 16:28  But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here. 
27513  Acts 16:29  Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, 
27514  Acts 16:30  And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 
27515  Acts 16:31  And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. 
27516  Acts 16:32  And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house. 
27517  Acts 16:33  And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway. 
27518  Acts 16:34  And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house. 
27519  Acts 16:35  And when it was day, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go. 
27520  Acts 16:36  And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore depart, and go in peace. 
27521  Acts 16:37  But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast us into prison; and now do they thrust us out privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and fetch us out. 
27522  Acts 16:38  And the serjeants told these words unto the magistrates: and they feared, when they heard that they were Romans. 
27523  Acts 16:39  And they came and besought them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the city. 
27524  Acts 16:40  And they went out of the prison, and entered into the house of Lydia: and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed. 
27525  Acts 17:1  Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews: 
27526  Acts 17:2  And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures, 
27527  Acts 17:3  Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ. 
27528  Acts 17:4  And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas; and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few. 
27529  Acts 17:5  But the Jews which believed not, moved with envy, took unto them certain lewd fellows of the baser sort, and gathered a company, and set all the city on an uproar, and assaulted the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people. 
27530  Acts 17:6  And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the rulers of the city, crying, These that have turned the world upside down are come hither also; 
27531  Acts 17:7  Whom Jason hath received: and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, one Jesus. 
27532  Acts 17:8  And they troubled the people and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things. 
27533  Acts 17:9  And when they had taken security of Jason, and of the other, they let them go. 
27534  Acts 17:10  And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. 
27535  Acts 17:11  These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. 
27536  Acts 17:12  Therefore many of them believed; also of honourable women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few. 
27537  Acts 17:13  But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was preached of Paul at Berea, they came thither also, and stirred up the people. 
27538  Acts 17:14  And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul to go as it were to the sea: but Silas and Timotheus abode there still. 
27539  Acts 17:15  And they that conducted Paul brought him unto Athens: and receiving a commandment unto Silas and Timotheus for to come to him with all speed, they departed. 
27540  Acts 17:16  Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry. 
27541  Acts 17:17  Therefore disputed he in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him. 
27542  Acts 17:18  Then certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoicks, encountered him. And some said, What will this babbler say? other some, He seemeth to be a setter forth of strange gods: because he preached unto them Jesus, and the resurrection. 
27543  Acts 17:19  And they took him, and brought him unto Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new doctrine, whereof thou speakest, is? 
27544  Acts 17:20  For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears: we would know therefore what these things mean. 
27545  Acts 17:21  (For all the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.) 
27546  Acts 17:22  Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious. 
27547  Acts 17:23  For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you. 
27548  Acts 17:24  God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; 
27549  Acts 17:25  Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; 
27550  Acts 17:26  And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; 
27551  Acts 17:27  That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: 
27552  Acts 17:28  For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. 
27553  Acts 17:29  Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device. 
27554  Acts 17:30  And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: 
27555  Acts 17:31  Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. 
27556  Acts 17:32  And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter. 
27557  Acts 17:33  So Paul departed from among them. 
27558  Acts 17:34  Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed: among the which was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them. 
27559  Acts 18:1  After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth; 
27560  Acts 18:2  And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them. 
27561  Acts 18:3  And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers. 
27562  Acts 18:4  And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks. 
27563  Acts 18:5  And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was Christ. 
27564  Acts 18:6  And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his raiment, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles. 
27565  Acts 18:7  And he departed thence, and entered into a certain man's house, named Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the synagogue. 
27566  Acts 18:8  And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized. 
27567  Acts 18:9  Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace: 
27568  Acts 18:10  For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city. 
27569  Acts 18:11  And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them. 
27570  Acts 18:12  And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat, 
27571  Acts 18:13  Saying, This fellow persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law. 
27572  Acts 18:14  And when Paul was now about to open his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O ye Jews, reason would that I should bear with you: 
27573  Acts 18:15  But if it be a question of words and names, and of your law, look ye to it; for I will be no judge of such matters. 
27574  Acts 18:16  And he drave them from the judgment seat. 
27575  Acts 18:17  Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. And Gallio cared for none of those things. 
27576  Acts 18:18  And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow. 
27577  Acts 18:19  And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews. 
27578  Acts 18:20  When they desired him to tarry longer time with them, he consented not; 
27579  Acts 18:21  But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus. 
27580  Acts 18:22  And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch. 
27581  Acts 18:23  And after he had spent some time there, he departed, and went over all the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples. 
27582  Acts 18:24  And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus. 
27583  Acts 18:25  This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John. 
27584  Acts 18:26  And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly. 
27585  Acts 18:27  And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he was come, helped them much which had believed through grace: 
27586  Acts 18:28  For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ. 
27587  Acts 19:1  And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples, 
27588  Acts 19:2  He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost. 
27589  Acts 19:3  And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism. 
27590  Acts 19:4  Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. 
27591  Acts 19:5  When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 
27592  Acts 19:6  And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. 
27593  Acts 19:7  And all the men were about twelve. 
27594  Acts 19:8  And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God. 
27595  Acts 19:9  But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus. 
27596  Acts 19:10  And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks. 
27597  Acts 19:11  And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: 
27598  Acts 19:12  So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them. 
27599  Acts 19:13  Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. 
27600  Acts 19:14  And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so. 
27601  Acts 19:15  And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? 
27602  Acts 19:16  And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. 
27603  Acts 19:17  And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. 
27604  Acts 19:18  And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds. 
27605  Acts 19:19  Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. 
27606  Acts 19:20  So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed. 
27607  Acts 19:21  After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome. 
27608  Acts 19:22  So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season. 
27609  Acts 19:23  And the same time there arose no small stir about that way. 
27610  Acts 19:24  For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen; 
27611  Acts 19:25  Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth. 
27612  Acts 19:26  Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands: 
27613  Acts 19:27  So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth. 
27614  Acts 19:28  And when they heard these sayings, they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians. 
27615  Acts 19:29  And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions in travel, they rushed with one accord into the theatre. 
27616  Acts 19:30  And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not. 
27617  Acts 19:31  And certain of the chief of Asia, which were his friends, sent unto him, desiring him that he would not adventure himself into the theatre. 
27618  Acts 19:32  Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together. 
27619  Acts 19:33  And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his defence unto the people. 
27620  Acts 19:34  But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians. 
27621  Acts 19:35  And when the townclerk had appeased the people, he said, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not how that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter? 
27622  Acts 19:36  Seeing then that these things cannot be spoken against, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly. 
27623  Acts 19:37  For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess. 
27624  Acts 19:38  Wherefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen which are with him, have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them implead one another. 
27625  Acts 19:39  But if ye inquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly. 
27626  Acts 19:40  For we are in danger to be called in question for this day's uproar, there being no cause whereby we may give an account of this concourse. 
27627  Acts 19:41  And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly. 
27628  Acts 20:1  And after the uproar was ceased, Paul called unto him the disciples, and embraced them, and departed for to go into Macedonia. 
27629  Acts 20:2  And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much exhortation, he came into Greece, 
27630  Acts 20:3  And there abode three months. And when the Jews laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Syria, he purposed to return through Macedonia. 
27631  Acts 20:4  And there accompanied him into Asia Sopater of Berea; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timotheus; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus. 
27632  Acts 20:5  These going before tarried for us at Troas. 
27633  Acts 20:6  And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came unto them to Troas in five days; where we abode seven days. 
27634  Acts 20:7  And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight. 
27635  Acts 20:8  And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they were gathered together. 
27636  Acts 20:9  And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus, being fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paul was long preaching, he sunk down with sleep, and fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead. 
27637  Acts 20:10  And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Trouble not yourselves; for his life is in him. 
27638  Acts 20:11  When he therefore was come up again, and had broken bread, and eaten, and talked a long while, even till break of day, so he departed. 
27639  Acts 20:12  And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted. 
27640  Acts 20:13  And we went before to ship, and sailed unto Assos, there intending to take in Paul: for so had he appointed, minding himself to go afoot. 
27641  Acts 20:14  And when he met with us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene. 
27642  Acts 20:15  And we sailed thence, and came the next day over against Chios; and the next day we arrived at Samos, and tarried at Trogyllium; and the next day we came to Miletus. 
27643  Acts 20:16  For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, because he would not spend the time in Asia: for he hasted, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost. 
27644  Acts 20:17  And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the church. 
27645  Acts 20:18  And when they were come to him, he said unto them, Ye know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all seasons, 
27646  Acts 20:19  Serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews: 
27647  Acts 20:20  And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house, 
27648  Acts 20:21  Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ. 
27649  Acts 20:22  And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: 
27650  Acts 20:23  Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me. 
27651  Acts 20:24  But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God. 
27652  Acts 20:25  And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more. 
27653  Acts 20:26  Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men. 
27654  Acts 20:27  For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God. 
27655  Acts 20:28  Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. 
27656  Acts 20:29  For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 
27657  Acts 20:30  Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. 
27658  Acts 20:31  Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears. 
27659  Acts 20:32  And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified. 
27660  Acts 20:33  I have coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel. 
27661  Acts 20:34  Yea, ye yourselves know, that these hands have ministered unto my necessities, and to them that were with me. 
27662  Acts 20:35  I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive. 
27663  Acts 20:36  And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all. 
27664  Acts 20:37  And they all wept sore, and fell on Paul's neck, and kissed him, 
27665  Acts 20:38  Sorrowing most of all for the words which he spake, that they should see his face no more. And they accompanied him unto the ship. 
27666  Acts 21:1  And it came to pass, that after we were gotten from them, and had launched, we came with a straight course unto Coos, and the day following unto Rhodes, and from thence unto Patara: 
27667  Acts 21:2  And finding a ship sailing over unto Phenicia, we went aboard, and set forth. 
27668  Acts 21:3  Now when we had discovered Cyprus, we left it on the left hand, and sailed into Syria, and landed at Tyre: for there the ship was to unlade her burden. 
27669  Acts 21:4  And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem. 
27670  Acts 21:5  And when we had accomplished those days, we departed and went our way; and they all brought us on our way, with wives and children, till we were out of the city: and we kneeled down on the shore, and prayed. 
27671  Acts 21:6  And when we had taken our leave one of another, we took ship; and they returned home again. 
27672  Acts 21:7  And when we had finished our course from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, and saluted the brethren, and abode with them one day. 
27673  Acts 21:8  And the next day we that were of Paul's company departed, and came unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was one of the seven; and abode with him. 
27674  Acts 21:9  And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy. 
27675  Acts 21:10  And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus. 
27676  Acts 21:11  And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles. 
27677  Acts 21:12  And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem. 
27678  Acts 21:13  Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus. 
27679  Acts 21:14  And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be done. 
27680  Acts 21:15  And after those days we took up our carriages, and went up to Jerusalem. 
27681  Acts 21:16  There went with us also certain of the disciples of Caesarea, and brought with them one Mnason of Cyprus, an old disciple, with whom we should lodge. 
27682  Acts 21:17  And when we were come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly. 
27683  Acts 21:18  And the day following Paul went in with us unto James; and all the elders were present. 
27684  Acts 21:19  And when he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry. 
27685  Acts 21:20  And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord, and said unto him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are which believe; and they are all zealous of the law: 
27686  Acts 21:21  And they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs. 
27687  Acts 21:22  What is it therefore? the multitude must needs come together: for they will hear that thou art come. 
27688  Acts 21:23  Do therefore this that we say to thee: We have four men which have a vow on them; 
27689  Acts 21:24  Them take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave their heads: and all may know that those things, whereof they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law. 
27690  Acts 21:25  As touching the Gentiles which believe, we have written and concluded that they observe no such thing, save only that they keep themselves from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication. 
27691  Acts 21:26  Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of purification, until that an offering should be offered for every one of them. 
27692  Acts 21:27  And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews which were of Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands on him, 
27693  Acts 21:28  Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This is the man, that teacheth all men every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place. 
27694  Acts 21:29  (For they had seen before with him in the city Trophimus an Ephesian, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.) 
27695  Acts 21:30  And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and forthwith the doors were shut. 
27696  Acts 21:31  And as they went about to kill him, tidings came unto the chief captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar. 
27697  Acts 21:32  Who immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down unto them: and when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, they left beating of Paul. 
27698  Acts 21:33  Then the chief captain came near, and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains; and demanded who he was, and what he had done. 
27699  Acts 21:34  And some cried one thing, some another, among the multitude: and when he could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the castle. 
27700  Acts 21:35  And when he came upon the stairs, so it was, that he was borne of the soldiers for the violence of the people. 
27701  Acts 21:36  For the multitude of the people followed after, crying, Away with him. 
27702  Acts 21:37  And as Paul was to be led into the castle, he said unto the chief captain, May I speak unto thee? Who said, Canst thou speak Greek? 
27703  Acts 21:38  Art not thou that Egyptian, which before these days madest an uproar, and leddest out into the wilderness four thousand men that were murderers? 
27704  Acts 21:39  But Paul said, I am a man which am a Jew of Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city: and, I beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto the people. 
27705  Acts 21:40  And when he had given him licence, Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned with the hand unto the people. And when there was made a great silence, he spake unto them in the Hebrew tongue, saying, 
27706  Acts 22:1  Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence which I make now unto you. 
27707  Acts 22:2  (And when they heard that he spake in the Hebrew tongue to them, they kept the more silence: and he saith,) 
27708  Acts 22:3  I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day. 
27709  Acts 22:4  And I persecuted this way unto the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women. 
27710  Acts 22:5  As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished. 
27711  Acts 22:6  And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round about me. 
27712  Acts 22:7  And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? 
27713  Acts 22:8  And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest. 
27714  Acts 22:9  And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me. 
27715  Acts 22:10  And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said unto me, Arise, and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things which are appointed for thee to do. 
27716  Acts 22:11  And when I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of them that were with me, I came into Damascus. 
27717  Acts 22:12  And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews which dwelt there, 
27718  Acts 22:13  Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him. 
27719  Acts 22:14  And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth. 
27720  Acts 22:15  For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard. 
27721  Acts 22:16  And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. 
27722  Acts 22:17  And it came to pass, that, when I was come again to Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance; 
27723  Acts 22:18  And saw him saying unto me, Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me. 
27724  Acts 22:19  And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee: 
27725  Acts 22:20  And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew him. 
27726  Acts 22:21  And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles. 
27727  Acts 22:22  And they gave him audience unto this word, and then lifted up their voices, and said, Away with such a fellow from the earth: for it is not fit that he should live. 
27728  Acts 22:23  And as they cried out, and cast off their clothes, and threw dust into the air, 
27729  Acts 22:24  The chief captain commanded him to be brought into the castle, and bade that he should be examined by scourging; that he might know wherefore they cried so against him. 
27730  Acts 22:25  And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said unto the centurion that stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and uncondemned? 
27731  Acts 22:26  When the centurion heard that, he went and told the chief captain, saying, Take heed what thou doest: for this man is a Roman. 
27732  Acts 22:27  Then the chief captain came, and said unto him, Tell me, art thou a Roman? He said, Yea. 
27733  Acts 22:28  And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this freedom. And Paul said, But I was free born. 
27734  Acts 22:29  Then straightway they departed from him which should have examined him: and the chief captain also was afraid, after he knew that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him. 
27735  Acts 22:30  On the morrow, because he would have known the certainty wherefore he was accused of the Jews, he loosed him from his bands, and commanded the chief priests and all their council to appear, and brought Paul down, and set him before them. 
27736  Acts 23:1  And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day. 
27737  Acts 23:2  And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him to smite him on the mouth. 
27738  Acts 23:3  Then said Paul unto him, God shall smite thee, thou whited wall: for sittest thou to judge me after the law, and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law? 
27739  Acts 23:4  And they that stood by said, Revilest thou God's high priest? 
27740  Acts 23:5  Then said Paul, I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people. 
27741  Acts 23:6  But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question. 
27742  Acts 23:7  And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees: and the multitude was divided. 
27743  Acts 23:8  For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both. 
27744  Acts 23:9  And there arose a great cry: and the scribes that were of the Pharisees' part arose, and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God. 
27745  Acts 23:10  And when there arose a great dissension, the chief captain, fearing lest Paul should have been pulled in pieces of them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and to take him by force from among them, and to bring him into the castle. 
27746  Acts 23:11  And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome. 
27747  Acts 23:12  And when it was day, certain of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul. 
27748  Acts 23:13  And they were more than forty which had made this conspiracy. 
27749  Acts 23:14  And they came to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have bound ourselves under a great curse, that we will eat nothing until we have slain Paul. 
27750  Acts 23:15  Now therefore ye with the council signify to the chief captain that he bring him down unto you to morrow, as though ye would inquire something more perfectly concerning him: and we, or ever he come near, are ready to kill him. 
27751  Acts 23:16  And when Paul's sister's son heard of their lying in wait, he went and entered into the castle, and told Paul. 
27752  Acts 23:17  Then Paul called one of the centurions unto him, and said, Bring this young man unto the chief captain: for he hath a certain thing to tell him. 
27753  Acts 23:18  So he took him, and brought him to the chief captain, and said, Paul the prisoner called me unto him, and prayed me to bring this young man unto thee, who hath something to say unto thee. 
27754  Acts 23:19  Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went with him aside privately, and asked him, What is that thou hast to tell me? 
27755  Acts 23:20  And he said, The Jews have agreed to desire thee that thou wouldest bring down Paul to morrow into the council, as though they would inquire somewhat of him more perfectly. 
27756  Acts 23:21  But do not thou yield unto them: for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, which have bound themselves with an oath, that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him: and now are they ready, looking for a promise from thee. 
27757  Acts 23:22  So the chief captain then let the young man depart, and charged him, See thou tell no man that thou hast shewed these things to me. 
27758  Acts 23:23  And he called unto him two centurions, saying, Make ready two hundred soldiers to go to Caesarea, and horsemen threescore and ten, and spearmen two hundred, at the third hour of the night; 
27759  Acts 23:24  And provide them beasts, that they may set Paul on, and bring him safe unto Felix the governor. 
27760  Acts 23:25  And he wrote a letter after this manner: 
27761  Acts 23:26  Claudius Lysias unto the most excellent governor Felix sendeth greeting. 
27762  Acts 23:27  This man was taken of the Jews, and should have been killed of them: then came I with an army, and rescued him, having understood that he was a Roman. 
27763  Acts 23:28  And when I would have known the cause wherefore they accused him, I brought him forth into their council: 
27764  Acts 23:29  Whom I perceived to be accused of questions of their law, but to have nothing laid to his charge worthy of death or of bonds. 
27765  Acts 23:30  And when it was told me how that the Jews laid wait for the man, I sent straightway to thee, and gave commandment to his accusers also to say before thee what they had against him. Farewell. 
27766  Acts 23:31  Then the soldiers, as it was commanded them, took Paul, and brought him by night to Antipatris. 
27767  Acts 23:32  On the morrow they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to the castle: 
27768  Acts 23:33  Who, when they came to Caesarea, and delivered the epistle to the governor, presented Paul also before him. 
27769  Acts 23:34  And when the governor had read the letter, he asked of what province he was. And when he understood that he was of Cilicia; 
27770  Acts 23:35  I will hear thee, said he, when thine accusers are also come. And he commanded him to be kept in Herod's judgment hall. 
27771  Acts 24:1  And after five days Ananias the high priest descended with the elders, and with a certain orator named Tertullus, who informed the governor against Paul. 
27772  Acts 24:2  And when he was called forth, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, Seeing that by thee we enjoy great quietness, and that very worthy deeds are done unto this nation by thy providence, 
27773  Acts 24:3  We accept it always, and in all places, most noble Felix, with all thankfulness. 
27774  Acts 24:4  Notwithstanding, that I be not further tedious unto thee, I pray thee that thou wouldest hear us of thy clemency a few words. 
27775  Acts 24:5  For we have found this man a pestilent fellow, and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes: 
27776  Acts 24:6  Who also hath gone about to profane the temple: whom we took, and would have judged according to our law. 
27777  Acts 24:7  But the chief captain Lysias came upon us, and with great violence took him away out of our hands, 
27778  Acts 24:8  Commanding his accusers to come unto thee: by examining of whom thyself mayest take knowledge of all these things, whereof we accuse him. 
27779  Acts 24:9  And the Jews also assented, saying that these things were so. 
27780  Acts 24:10  Then Paul, after that the governor had beckoned unto him to speak, answered, Forasmuch as I know that thou hast been of many years a judge unto this nation, I do the more cheerfully answer for myself: 
27781  Acts 24:11  Because that thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem for to worship. 
27782  Acts 24:12  And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, neither raising up the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city: 
27783  Acts 24:13  Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me. 
27784  Acts 24:14  But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets: 
27785  Acts 24:15  And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust. 
27786  Acts 24:16  And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men. 
27787  Acts 24:17  Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings. 
27788  Acts 24:18  Whereupon certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, neither with multitude, nor with tumult. 
27789  Acts 24:19  Who ought to have been here before thee, and object, if they had ought against me. 
27790  Acts 24:20  Or else let these same here say, if they have found any evil doing in me, while I stood before the council, 
27791  Acts 24:21  Except it be for this one voice, that I cried standing among them, Touching the resurrection of the dead I am called in question by you this day. 
27792  Acts 24:22  And when Felix heard these things, having more perfect knowledge of that way, he deferred them, and said, When Lysias the chief captain shall come down, I will know the uttermost of your matter. 
27793  Acts 24:23  And he commanded a centurion to keep Paul, and to let him have liberty, and that he should forbid none of his acquaintance to minister or come unto him. 
27794  Acts 24:24  And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, which was a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ. 
27795  Acts 24:25  And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come, Felix trembled, and answered, Go thy way for this time; when I have a convenient season, I will call for thee. 
27796  Acts 24:26  He hoped also that money should have been given him of Paul, that he might loose him: wherefore he sent for him the oftener, and communed with him. 
27797  Acts 24:27  But after two years Porcius Festus came into Felix' room: and Felix, willing to shew the Jews a pleasure, left Paul bound. 
27798  Acts 25:1  Now when Festus was come into the province, after three days he ascended from Caesarea to Jerusalem. 
27799  Acts 25:2  Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and besought him, 
27800  Acts 25:3  And desired favour against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying wait in the way to kill him. 
27801  Acts 25:4  But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Caesarea, and that he himself would depart shortly thither. 
27802  Acts 25:5  Let them therefore, said he, which among you are able, go down with me, and accuse this man, if there be any wickedness in him. 
27803  Acts 25:6  And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down unto Caesarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat commanded Paul to be brought. 
27804  Acts 25:7  And when he was come, the Jews which came down from Jerusalem stood round about, and laid many and grievous complaints against Paul, which they could not prove. 
27805  Acts 25:8  While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, neither against the temple, nor yet against Caesar, have I offended any thing at all. 
27806  Acts 25:9  But Festus, willing to do the Jews a pleasure, answered Paul, and said, Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me? 
27807  Acts 25:10  Then said Paul, I stand at Caesar's judgment seat, where I ought to be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou very well knowest. 
27808  Acts 25:11  For if I be an offender, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there be none of these things whereof these accuse me, no man may deliver me unto them. I appeal unto Caesar. 
27809  Acts 25:12  Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast thou appealed unto Caesar? unto Caesar shalt thou go. 
27810  Acts 25:13  And after certain days king Agrippa and Bernice came unto Caesarea to salute Festus. 
27811  Acts 25:14  And when they had been there many days, Festus declared Paul's cause unto the king, saying, There is a certain man left in bonds by Felix: 
27812  Acts 25:15  About whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed me, desiring to have judgment against him. 
27813  Acts 25:16  To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any man to die, before that he which is accused have the accusers face to face, and have licence to answer for himself concerning the crime laid against him. 
27814  Acts 25:17  Therefore, when they were come hither, without any delay on the morrow I sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought forth. 
27815  Acts 25:18  Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought none accusation of such things as I supposed: 
27816  Acts 25:19  But had certain questions against him of their own superstition, and of one Jesus, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive. 
27817  Acts 25:20  And because I doubted of such manner of questions, I asked him whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these matters. 
27818  Acts 25:21  But when Paul had appealed to be reserved unto the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I might send him to Caesar. 
27819  Acts 25:22  Then Agrippa said unto Festus, I would also hear the man myself. To morrow, said he, thou shalt hear him. 
27820  Acts 25:23  And on the morrow, when Agrippa was come, and Bernice, with great pomp, and was entered into the place of hearing, with the chief captains, and principal men of the city, at Festus' commandment Paul was brought forth. 
27821  Acts 25:24  And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all men which are here present with us, ye see this man, about whom all the multitude of the Jews have dealt with me, both at Jerusalem, and also here, crying that he ought not to live any longer. 
27822  Acts 25:25  But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and that he himself hath appealed to Augustus, I have determined to send him. 
27823  Acts 25:26  Of whom I have no certain thing to write unto my lord. Wherefore I have brought him forth before you, and specially before thee, O king Agrippa, that, after examination had, I might have somewhat to write. 
27824  Acts 25:27  For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not withal to signify the crimes laid against him. 
27825  Acts 26:1  Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and answered for himself: 
27826  Acts 26:2  I think myself happy, king Agrippa, because I shall answer for myself this day before thee touching all the things whereof I am accused of the Jews: 
27827  Acts 26:3  Especially because I know thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently. 
27828  Acts 26:4  My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among mine own nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews; 
27829  Acts 26:5  Which knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after the most straitest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee. 
27830  Acts 26:6  And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God unto our fathers: 
27831  Acts 26:7  Unto which promise our twelve tribes, instantly serving God day and night, hope to come. For which hope's sake, king Agrippa, I am accused of the Jews. 
27832  Acts 26:8  Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead? 
27833  Acts 26:9  I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth. 
27834  Acts 26:10  Which thing I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I gave my voice against them. 
27835  Acts 26:11  And I punished them oft in every synagogue, and compelled them to blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even unto strange cities. 
27836  Acts 26:12  Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests, 
27837  Acts 26:13  At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me. 
27838  Acts 26:14  And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. 
27839  Acts 26:15  And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. 
27840  Acts 26:16  But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; 
27841  Acts 26:17  Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, 
27842  Acts 26:18  To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. 
27843  Acts 26:19  Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision: 
27844  Acts 26:20  But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance. 
27845  Acts 26:21  For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to kill me. 
27846  Acts 26:22  Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come: 
27847  Acts 26:23  That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles. 
27848  Acts 26:24  And as he thus spake for himself, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning doth make thee mad. 
27849  Acts 26:25  But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus; but speak forth the words of truth and soberness. 
27850  Acts 26:26  For the king knoweth of these things, before whom also I speak freely: for I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him; for this thing was not done in a corner. 
27851  Acts 26:27  King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know that thou believest. 
27852  Acts 26:28  Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian. 
27853  Acts 26:29  And Paul said, I would to God, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds. 
27854  Acts 26:30  And when he had thus spoken, the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them: 
27855  Acts 26:31  And when they were gone aside, they talked between themselves, saying, This man doeth nothing worthy of death or of bonds. 
27856  Acts 26:32  Then said Agrippa unto Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed unto Caesar. 
27857  Acts 27:1  And when it was determined that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners unto one named Julius, a centurion of Augustus' band. 
27858  Acts 27:2  And entering into a ship of Adramyttium, we launched, meaning to sail by the coasts of Asia; one Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us. 
27859  Acts 27:3  And the next day we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously entreated Paul, and gave him liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself. 
27860  Acts 27:4  And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary. 
27861  Acts 27:5  And when we had sailed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia. 
27862  Acts 27:6  And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy; and he put us therein. 
27863  Acts 27:7  And when we had sailed slowly many days, and scarce were come over against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over against Salmone; 
27864  Acts 27:8  And, hardly passing it, came unto a place which is called The fair havens; nigh whereunto was the city of Lasea. 
27865  Acts 27:9  Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished them, 
27866  Acts 27:10  And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives. 
27867  Acts 27:11  Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul. 
27868  Acts 27:12  And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to depart thence also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, and there to winter; which is an haven of Crete, and lieth toward the south west and north west. 
27869  Acts 27:13  And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, loosing thence, they sailed close by Crete. 
27870  Acts 27:14  But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon. 
27871  Acts 27:15  And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up into the wind, we let her drive. 
27872  Acts 27:16  And running under a certain island which is called Clauda, we had much work to come by the boat: 
27873  Acts 27:17  Which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, strake sail, and so were driven. 
27874  Acts 27:18  And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next day they lightened the ship; 
27875  Acts 27:19  And the third day we cast out with our own hands the tackling of the ship. 
27876  Acts 27:20  And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope that we should be saved was then taken away. 
27877  Acts 27:21  But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss. 
27878  Acts 27:22  And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but of the ship. 
27879  Acts 27:23  For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, 
27880  Acts 27:24  Saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee. 
27881  Acts 27:25  Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me. 
27882  Acts 27:26  Howbeit we must be cast upon a certain island. 
27883  Acts 27:27  But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the shipmen deemed that they drew near to some country; 
27884  Acts 27:28  And sounded, and found it twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again, and found it fifteen fathoms. 
27885  Acts 27:29  Then fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day. 
27886  Acts 27:30  And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under colour as though they would have cast anchors out of the foreship, 
27887  Acts 27:31  Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved. 
27888  Acts 27:32  Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off. 
27889  Acts 27:33  And while the day was coming on, Paul besought them all to take meat, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye have tarried and continued fasting, having taken nothing. 
27890  Acts 27:34  Wherefore I pray you to take some meat: for this is for your health: for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you. 
27891  Acts 27:35  And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in presence of them all: and when he had broken it, he began to eat. 
27892  Acts 27:36  Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took some meat. 
27893  Acts 27:37  And we were in all in the ship two hundred threescore and sixteen souls. 
27894  Acts 27:38  And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea. 
27895  Acts 27:39  And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discovered a certain creek with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were possible, to thrust in the ship. 
27896  Acts 27:40  And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoised up the mainsail to the wind, and made toward shore. 
27897  Acts 27:41  And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmoveable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waves. 
27898  Acts 27:42  And the soldiers' counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out, and escape. 
27899  Acts 27:43  But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from their purpose; and commanded that they which could swim should cast themselves first into the sea, and get to land: 
27900  Acts 27:44  And the rest, some on boards, and some on broken pieces of the ship. And so it came to pass, that they escaped all safe to land. 
27901  Acts 28:1  And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita. 
27902  Acts 28:2  And the barbarous people shewed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and because of the cold. 
27903  Acts 28:3  And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand. 
27904  Acts 28:4  And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live. 
27905  Acts 28:5  And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm. 
27906  Acts 28:6  Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god. 
27907  Acts 28:7  In the same quarters were possessions of the chief man of the island, whose name was Publius; who received us, and lodged us three days courteously. 
27908  Acts 28:8  And it came to pass, that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and of a bloody flux: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on him, and healed him. 
27909  Acts 28:9  So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island, came, and were healed: 
27910  Acts 28:10  Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they laded us with such things as were necessary. 
27911  Acts 28:11  And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux. 
27912  Acts 28:12  And landing at Syracuse, we tarried there three days. 
27913  Acts 28:13  And from thence we fetched a compass, and came to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli: 
27914  Acts 28:14  Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome. 
27915  Acts 28:15  And from thence, when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii forum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage. 
27916  Acts 28:16  And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered to dwell by himself with a soldier that kept him. 
27917  Acts 28:17  And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans. 
27918  Acts 28:18  Who, when they had examined me, would have let me go, because there was no cause of death in me. 
27919  Acts 28:19  But when the Jews spake against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I had ought to accuse my nation of. 
27920  Acts 28:20  For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see you, and to speak with you: because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain. 
27921  Acts 28:21  And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judaea concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came shewed or spake any harm of thee.

27923  Acts 28:23  And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening.

27926  Acts 28:26  Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive: 
27927  Acts 28:27  For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
