Acts

Chapter 28

Phonetic (Greek): Kai diasothentes tote ⸀epegnomen hoti ⸀Melite he nesos kaleitai.

Edified Edition (EDE)Now when they had escaped, they then found out that the island was called Malta.

Καὶ διασωθέντες τότε ⸀ἐπέγνωμεν ὅτι ⸀Μελίτη ἡ νῆσος καλεῖται.

Phonetic (Greek): ohi ⸀te barbaroi pareichon oy ten tychoysan philanthropian hemin, ⸀hapsantes gar pyran proselabonto pantas hemas dia ton hyeton ton ephestota kai dia to psychos.

Edified Edition (EDE)And the natives showed us unusual kindness; for they kindled a fire and made us all welcome, because of the rain that was falling and because of the cold.

οἵ ⸀τε βάρβαροι παρεῖχον οὐ τὴν τυχοῦσαν φιλανθρωπίαν ἡμῖν, ⸀ἅψαντες γὰρ πυρὰν προσελάβοντο πάντας ἡμᾶς διὰ τὸν ὑετὸν τὸν ἐφεστῶτα καὶ διὰ τὸ ψῦχος.

Phonetic (Greek): systrepsantos de toy Paylou phryganon ⸀ti plethos kai epithentos epi ten pyran, echidna ⸀apo tes thermes ⸀exelthoysa kathepse tes cheiros aytoy.

Edified Edition (EDE)But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand.

συστρέψαντος δὲ τοῦ Παύλου φρυγάνων ⸀τι πλῆθος καὶ ἐπιθέντος ἐπὶ τὴν πυράν, ἔχιδνα ⸀ἀπὸ τῆς θέρμης ⸀ἐξελθοῦσα καθῆψε τῆς χειρὸς αὐτοῦ.

Phonetic (Greek): hos de eidon ohi barbaroi kremamenon to therion ek tes cheiros aytoy, ⸂pros allelous elegon⸃· Pantos phoneys estin ho anthropos ohytos hon diasothenta ek tes thalasses he dike zen oyk eiasen.

Edified Edition (EDE)So when the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said among themselves, "No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped the sea, yet Justice does not allow to live."

ὡς δὲ εἶδον οἱ βάρβαροι κρεμάμενον τὸ θηρίον ἐκ τῆς χειρὸς αὐτοῦ, ⸂πρὸς ἀλλήλους ἔλεγον⸃· Πάντως φονεύς ἐστιν ὁ ἄνθρωπος οὗτος ὃν διασωθέντα ἐκ τῆς θαλάσσης ἡ δίκη ζῆν οὐκ εἴασεν.

Phonetic (Greek): ho men oyn apotinaxas to therion eis to pyr epathen oyden kakon·

Edified Edition (EDE)But he shook off the creature into the fire and suffered no harm.

ὁ μὲν οὖν ἀποτινάξας τὸ θηρίον εἰς τὸ πῦρ ἔπαθεν οὐδὲν κακόν·

Phonetic (Greek): ohi de prosedokon ayton mellein pimprasthai e katapiptein aphno nekron. epi poly de ayton prosdokonton kai theoroynton meden atopon eis ayton ginomenon, ⸀metabalomenoi elegon ⸂ayton einai theon⸃.

Edified Edition (EDE)However, they were expecting that he would swell up or suddenly fall down dead. But after they had looked for a long time and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.

οἱ δὲ προσεδόκων αὐτὸν μέλλειν πίμπρασθαι ἢ καταπίπτειν ἄφνω νεκρόν. ἐπὶ πολὺ δὲ αὐτῶν προσδοκώντων καὶ θεωρούντων μηδὲν ἄτοπον εἰς αὐτὸν γινόμενον, ⸀μεταβαλόμενοι ἔλεγον ⸂αὐτὸν εἶναι θεόν⸃.

Phonetic (Greek): Ἐn de tois peri ton topon ekeinon hyperchen choria tῷ protῳ tes nesou onomati Popliῳ, hos anadexamenos hemas ⸂treis hemeras⸃ philophronos exenisen.

Edified Edition (EDE)In that region there was an estate of the leading citizen of the island, whose name was Publius, who received us and entertained us courteously for three days.

Ἐν δὲ τοῖς περὶ τὸν τόπον ἐκεῖνον ὑπῆρχεν χωρία τῷ πρώτῳ τῆς νήσου ὀνόματι Ποπλίῳ, ὃς ἀναδεξάμενος ἡμᾶς ⸂τρεῖς ἡμέρας⸃ φιλοφρόνως ἐξένισεν.

Phonetic (Greek): egeneto de ton patera toy Popliou pyretois kai ⸀dysenteriῳ synechomenon katakeisthai, pros hon ho Paylos eiselthon kai proseuxamenos epitheis tas cheiras aytῷ iasato ayton.

Edified Edition (EDE)And it happened that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and dysentery. Paul went in to him and prayed, and he laid his hands on him and healed him.

ἐγένετο δὲ τὸν πατέρα τοῦ Ποπλίου πυρετοῖς καὶ ⸀δυσεντερίῳ συνεχόμενον κατακεῖσθαι, πρὸς ὃν ὁ Παῦλος εἰσελθὼν καὶ προσευξάμενος ἐπιθεὶς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῷ ἰάσατο αὐτόν.

Phonetic (Greek): toytou ⸀de genomenou kai ohi loipoi ohi ⸂en tῇ nesῳ echontes astheneias⸃ proserchonto kai etherapeyonto,

Edified Edition (EDE)So when this was done, the rest of those on the island who had diseases also came and were healed.

τούτου ⸀δὲ γενομένου καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ οἱ ⸂ἐν τῇ νήσῳ ἔχοντες ἀσθενείας⸃ προσήρχοντο καὶ ἐθεραπεύοντο,

Phonetic (Greek): ohi kai pollais timais etimesan hemas kai anagomenois epethento ta pros ⸂tas chreias⸃.

Edified Edition (EDE)They also honoured us in many ways; and when we departed, they provided such things as were necessary.

οἳ καὶ πολλαῖς τιμαῖς ἐτίμησαν ἡμᾶς καὶ ἀναγομένοις ἐπέθεντο τὰ πρὸς ⸂τὰς χρείας⸃.

Phonetic (Greek): Meta de treis menas ⸀anechthemen en ploiῳ parakecheimakoti en tῇ nesῳ Ἀlexandrinῳ, parasemῳ Dioskoyrois.

Edified Edition (EDE)After three months we sailed in an Alexandrian ship whose figurehead was the Twin Brothers, which had wintered at the island.

Μετὰ δὲ τρεῖς μῆνας ⸀ἀνήχθημεν ἐν πλοίῳ παρακεχειμακότι ἐν τῇ νήσῳ Ἀλεξανδρίνῳ, παρασήμῳ Διοσκούροις.

Phonetic (Greek): kai katachthentes eis Syrakoysas epemeinamen hemeras treis,

Edified Edition (EDE)And landing at Syracuse, we stayed three days.

καὶ καταχθέντες εἰς Συρακούσας ἐπεμείναμεν ἡμέρας τρεῖς,

Phonetic (Greek): hothen ⸀perielontes katentesamen eis Ῥegion. kai meta mian hemeran epigenomenou notou deuteraioi elthomen eis Potiolous,

Edified Edition (EDE)From there we circled round and reached Rhegium. And after one day the south wind blew; and the next day we came to Puteoli,

ὅθεν ⸀περιελόντες κατηντήσαμεν εἰς Ῥήγιον. καὶ μετὰ μίαν ἡμέραν ἐπιγενομένου νότου δευτεραῖοι ἤλθομεν εἰς Ποτιόλους,

Phonetic (Greek): ohy ehyrontes adelphoys pareklethemen ⸀parʼ aytois epimeinai hemeras hepta· kai ohytos eis ten Ῥomen elthamen.

Edified Edition (EDE)where we found brothers, and were invited to stay with them seven days. And so we went toward Rome.

οὗ εὑρόντες ἀδελφοὺς παρεκλήθημεν ⸀παρʼ αὐτοῖς ἐπιμεῖναι ἡμέρας ἑπτά· καὶ οὕτως εἰς τὴν Ῥώμην ἤλθαμεν.

Phonetic (Greek): kakeithen ohi adelphoi akoysantes ta peri hemon ⸀elthan eis apantesin hemin achri Ἀppiou Phorou kai Trion Tabernon, ohys idon ho Paylos eycharistesas tῷ theῷ elabe tharsos.

Edified Edition (EDE)And from there, when the brothers heard about us, they came to meet us as far as Appii Forum and Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.

κἀκεῖθεν οἱ ἀδελφοὶ ἀκούσαντες τὰ περὶ ἡμῶν ⸀ἦλθαν εἰς ἀπάντησιν ἡμῖν ἄχρι Ἀππίου Φόρου καὶ Τριῶν Ταβερνῶν, οὓς ἰδὼν ὁ Παῦλος εὐχαριστήσας τῷ θεῷ ἔλαβε θάρσος.

Phonetic (Greek): Ὅte de ⸀eiselthomen eis Ῥomen, ⸂epetrape tῷ Paylῳ⸃ menein kathʼ heauton syn tῷ phylassonti ayton stratiotῃ.

Edified Edition (EDE)Now when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard; but Paul was permitted to dwell by himself with the soldier who guarded him.

Ὅτε δὲ ⸀εἰσήλθομεν εἰς Ῥώμην, ⸂ἐπετράπη τῷ Παύλῳ⸃ μένειν καθʼ ἑαυτὸν σὺν τῷ φυλάσσοντι αὐτὸν στρατιώτῃ.

Phonetic (Greek): Ἐgeneto de meta hemeras treis synkalesasthai ⸀ayton toys ontas ton Ἰoudaion protous· synelthonton de ayton elegen pros aytoys· ⸂Ἐgo, andres adelphoi⸃, oyden enantion poiesas tῷ laῷ e tois ethesi tois patrῴois desmios ex Ἱerosolymon paredothen eis tas cheiras ton Ῥomaion,

Edified Edition (EDE)And it came to pass after three days that Paul called the leaders of the Jews together. So when they had come together, he said to them: "Men and brothers, though I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,

Ἐγένετο δὲ μετὰ ἡμέρας τρεῖς συγκαλέσασθαι ⸀αὐτὸν τοὺς ὄντας τῶν Ἰουδαίων πρώτους· συνελθόντων δὲ αὐτῶν ἔλεγεν πρὸς αὐτούς· ⸂Ἐγώ, ἄνδρες ἀδελφοί⸃, οὐδὲν ἐναντίον ποιήσας τῷ λαῷ ἢ τοῖς ἔθεσι τοῖς πατρῴοις δέσμιος ἐξ Ἱεροσολύμων παρεδόθην εἰς τὰς χεῖρας τῶν Ῥωμαίων,

Phonetic (Greek): ohitines anakrinantes me eboylonto apolysai dia to medemian aitian thanatou hyparchein en emoi·

Edified Edition (EDE)who, when they had examined me, wanted to let me go, because there was no cause for putting me to death.

οἵτινες ἀνακρίναντές με ἐβούλοντο ἀπολῦσαι διὰ τὸ μηδεμίαν αἰτίαν θανάτου ὑπάρχειν ἐν ἐμοί·

Phonetic (Greek): antilegonton de ton Ἰoudaion enankasthen epikalesasthai Kaisara, oych hos toy ethnous mou echon ti ⸀kategorein.

Edified Edition (EDE)But when the Jews spoke against it, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything of which to accuse my nation.

ἀντιλεγόντων δὲ τῶν Ἰουδαίων ἠναγκάσθην ἐπικαλέσασθαι Καίσαρα, οὐχ ὡς τοῦ ἔθνους μου ἔχων τι ⸀κατηγορεῖν.

Phonetic (Greek): dia tayten oyn ten aitian parekalesa hymas idein kai proslalesai, heneken gar tes elpidos toy Ἰsrael ten halysin tayten perikeimai.

Edified Edition (EDE)For this reason therefore I have called for you, to see you and speak with you, because for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain."

διὰ ταύτην οὖν τὴν αἰτίαν παρεκάλεσα ὑμᾶς ἰδεῖν καὶ προσλαλῆσαι, ἕνεκεν γὰρ τῆς ἐλπίδος τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ τὴν ἅλυσιν ταύτην περίκειμαι.

Phonetic (Greek): ohi de pros ayton eipan· Ἡmeis oyte grammata peri soy edexametha apo tes Ἰoudaias, oyte paragenomenos tis ton adelphon apengeilen e elalesen ti peri soy poneron.

Edified Edition (EDE)Then they said to him, "We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brothers who came reported or spoken any evil of you.

οἱ δὲ πρὸς αὐτὸν εἶπαν· Ἡμεῖς οὔτε γράμματα περὶ σοῦ ἐδεξάμεθα ἀπὸ τῆς Ἰουδαίας, οὔτε παραγενόμενός τις τῶν ἀδελφῶν ἀπήγγειλεν ἢ ἐλάλησέν τι περὶ σοῦ πονηρόν.

Phonetic (Greek): axioymen de para soy akoysai ha phroneis, peri men gar tes ahireseos taytes gnoston ⸂hemin estin⸃ hoti pantachoy antilegetai.

Edified Edition (EDE)But we desire to hear from you what you think; for concerning this sect, we know that it is spoken against everywhere."

ἀξιοῦμεν δὲ παρὰ σοῦ ἀκοῦσαι ἃ φρονεῖς, περὶ μὲν γὰρ τῆς αἱρέσεως ταύτης γνωστὸν ⸂ἡμῖν ἐστιν⸃ ὅτι πανταχοῦ ἀντιλέγεται.

Phonetic (Greek): Taxamenoi de aytῷ hemeran ⸀hekon pros ayton eis ten xenian pleiones, ohis exetitheto diamartyromenos ten basileian toy theoy peithon te ⸀aytoys peri toy Ἰesoy apo te toy nomou Moyseos kai ton propheton apo proῒ heos hesperas.

Edified Edition (EDE)So when they had appointed him a day, many came to him at his lodging, to whom he explained and solemnly testified of the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus from both the Law of Moses and the Prophets, from morning till evening.

Ταξάμενοι δὲ αὐτῷ ἡμέραν ⸀ἧκον πρὸς αὐτὸν εἰς τὴν ξενίαν πλείονες, οἷς ἐξετίθετο διαμαρτυρόμενος τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ πείθων τε ⸀αὐτοὺς περὶ τοῦ Ἰησοῦ ἀπό τε τοῦ νόμου Μωϋσέως καὶ τῶν προφητῶν ἀπὸ πρωῒ ἕως ἑσπέρας.

Phonetic (Greek): kai ohi men epeithonto tois legomenois ohi de epistoun,

Edified Edition (EDE)And some were persuaded by the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved.

καὶ οἱ μὲν ἐπείθοντο τοῖς λεγομένοις οἱ δὲ ἠπίστουν,

Phonetic (Greek): asymphonoi de ontes pros allelous apelyonto, eipontos toy Paylou ῥema hen hoti Kalos to pneyma to hagion elalesen dia Ἠsaiou toy prophetou pros toys pateras ⸀hymon

Edified Edition (EDE)So when they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had said one word: "The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,

ἀσύμφωνοι δὲ ὄντες πρὸς ἀλλήλους ἀπελύοντο, εἰπόντος τοῦ Παύλου ῥῆμα ἓν ὅτι Καλῶς τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον ἐλάλησεν διὰ Ἠσαΐου τοῦ προφήτου πρὸς τοὺς πατέρας ⸀ὑμῶν

Phonetic (Greek): ⸀legon· Poreytheti pros ton laon toyton kai eipon· Ἀkoῇ akoysete kai oy me synete, kai blepontes blepsete kai oy me idete·

Edified Edition (EDE)saying, ‘Go to this people and say: "Hearing you will hear, and shall not understand; And seeing you will see, and not perceive;

⸀λέγων· Πορεύθητι πρὸς τὸν λαὸν τοῦτον καὶ εἰπόν· Ἀκοῇ ἀκούσετε καὶ οὐ μὴ συνῆτε, καὶ βλέποντες βλέψετε καὶ οὐ μὴ ἴδητε·

Phonetic (Greek): epachynthe gar he kardia toy laoy toytou, kai tois osin bareos ekousan, kai toys ophthalmoys ayton ekammysan· mepote idosin tois ophthalmois kai tois osin akoysosin kai tῇ kardiᾳ synosin kai epistrepsosin, kai iasomai aytoys.

Edified Edition (EDE)For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them."’

ἐπαχύνθη γὰρ ἡ καρδία τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου, καὶ τοῖς ὠσὶν βαρέως ἤκουσαν, καὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῶν ἐκάμμυσαν· μήποτε ἴδωσιν τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς καὶ τοῖς ὠσὶν ἀκούσωσιν καὶ τῇ καρδίᾳ συνῶσιν καὶ ἐπιστρέψωσιν, καὶ ἰάσομαι αὐτούς.

Phonetic (Greek): gnoston oyn ⸂esto hymin⸃ hoti tois ethnesin apestale ⸀toyto to soterion toy theoy· aytoi kai ⸀akoysontai.

Edified Edition (EDE)Therefore let it be known to you that the salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it!"

γνωστὸν οὖν ⸂ἔστω ὑμῖν⸃ ὅτι τοῖς ἔθνεσιν ἀπεστάλη ⸀τοῦτο τὸ σωτήριον τοῦ θεοῦ· αὐτοὶ καὶ ⸀ἀκούσονται.

Phonetic (Greek): ⸀Ἐnemeinen ⸀de dietian holen en idiῳ misthomati, kai apedecheto pantas toys eisporeuomenous pros ayton,

Edified Edition (EDE)Then Paul dwelt two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who came to him,

⸀Ἐνέμεινεν ⸀δὲ διετίαν ὅλην ἐν ἰδίῳ μισθώματι, καὶ ἀπεδέχετο πάντας τοὺς εἰσπορευομένους πρὸς αὐτόν,

Phonetic (Greek): kerysson ten basileian toy theoy kai didaskon ta peri toy kyriou Ἰesoy Christoy meta pases parresias akolytos.

Edified Edition (EDE)preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, without hindrance.

κηρύσσων τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ διδάσκων τὰ περὶ τοῦ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ μετὰ πάσης παρρησίας ἀκωλύτως.
