Acts of the Apostles 7

DOUAI-RHEIMS	GREEK BIBLE
1 Then the high priest said: Are these things so?	1 Ειπε δε ο αρχιερευς? Τωοντι ουτως εχουσι ταυτα;
2 Who said: Ye men, brethren, and fathers, hear. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charan.	2 Ο δε ειπεν? Ανδρες αδελφοι και πατερες, ακουσατε. Ο Θεος της δοξης εφανη εις τον πατερα ημων Αβρααμ οτε ητο εν τη Μεσοποταμια, πριν κατοικηση εν Χαρραν,
3 And said to him: Go forth out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.	3 και ειπε προς αυτον? Εξελθε εκ της γης σου και εκ της συγγενειας σου, και ελθε εις γην, την οποιαν θελω σοι δειξει.
4 Then he went out of the land of the Chaldeans, and dwelt in Charan. And from thence, after his father was dead, he removed him into this land, wherein you now dwell.	4 Τοτε εξελθων εκ της γης των Χαλδαιων κατωκησεν εν Χαρραν? και εκειθεν μετα τον θανατον του πατρος αυτου μετωκισεν αυτον εις την γην ταυτην, εις την οποιαν σεις κατοικειτε τωρα?
5 And he gave him no inheritance in it; no, not the pace of a foot: but he promised to give it him in possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child.	5 και δεν εδωκεν εις αυτον κληρονομιαν εν αυτη ουδε βημα ποδος, υπεσχεθη δε οτι θελει δωσει αυτην κτημα εις αυτην και εις το σπερμα αυτου μετ' αυτον, ενω δεν ειχε τεκνον.
6 And God said to him: That his seed should sojourn in a strange country, and that they should bring them under bondage, and treat them evil four hundred years.	6 Ελαλησε δε προς αυτον ο Θεος ουτως, οτι το σπερμα αυτου θελει εισθαι παροικον εν γη ξενη, και θελουσι δουλωσει αυτο και καταθλιψει τετρακοσια ετη?
7 And the nation which they shall serve will I judge, said the Lord; and after these things they shall go out, and shall serve me in this place.	7 και το εθνος, εις το οποιον θελουσι δουλωθη, εγω θελω κρινει, ειπεν ο Θεος? και μετα ταυτα θελουσιν εξελθει και θελουσι με λατρευσει εν τω τοπω τουτω.
8 And he gave him the covenant of circumcision, and so he begot Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begot Jacob; and Jacob the twelve patriarchs.	8 Και εδωκεν εις αυτον διαθηκην περιτομης? και ουτως εγεννησε τον Ισαακ και περιετεμεν αυτον τη ογδοη ημερα, και ο Ισαακ εγεννησε τον Ιακωβ, και ο Ιακωβ τους δωδεκα πατριαρχας.
9 And the patriarchs, through envy, sold Joseph into Egypt; and God was with him,	9 Και οι πατριαρχαι, φθονησαντες τον Ιωσηφ, επωλησαν εις την Αιγυπτον. Ο Θεος ομως ητο μετ' αυτου,
10 And delivered him out of all his tribulations: and he gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharao, the king of Egypt; and he appointed him governor over Egypt, and over all his house.	10 και ηλευθερωσεν αυτον εκ πασων των θλιψεων αυτου και εδωκεν εις αυτον χαριν και σοφιαν ενωπιον Φαραω του βασιλεως της Αιγυπτου, οστις κατεστησεν αυτον κυβερνητην επι της Αιγυπτου και ολου του οικου αυτου.
11 Now there came a famine upon all Egypt and Chanaan, and great tribulation; and our fathers found no food.	11 Ηλθε δε πεινα εφ' ολην την γην της Αιγυπτου και Χανααν και θλιψις μεγαλη, και δεν ευρισκον τροφας οι πατερες ημων.
12 But when Jacob had heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent our fathers first:	12 Ακουσας δε ο Ιακωβ οτι υπηρχε σιτος εν Αιγυπτω, εξαπεστειλε πρωτην φοραν τους πατερας ημων?
13 And at the second time, Joseph was known by his brethren, and his kindred was made known to Pharao.	13 και εν τη δευτερα ανεγνωρισθη ο Ιωσηφ εις τους αδελφους αυτου, και εφανερωθη εις τον Φαραω το γενος του Ιωσηφ.
14 And Joseph sending, called thither Jacob, his father, and all his kindred, seventy-five souls.	14 Αποστειλας δε ο Ιωσηφ, εκαλεσε προς εαυτον τον πατερα αυτου Ιακωβ και πασαν την συγγενειαν αυτου εβδομηκοντα πεντε ψυχας.
15 So Jacob went down into Egypt; and he died, and our fathers.	15 Και κατεβη ο Ιακωβ εις Αιγυπτον και ετελευτησεν εκει αυτος και οι πατερες ημων,
16 And they were translated into Sichem, and were laid in the sepulchre, that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Hemor, the son of Sichem.	16 και μετεκομισθησαν εις Συχεμ και ετεθησαν εν τω μνηματι, το οποιον ηγορασεν ο Αβρααμ με τιμην αργυριου παρα των υιων του Εμμωρ πατρος του Συχεμ.
17 And when the time of the promise drew near, which God had promised to Abraham, the people increased, and were multiplied in Egypt,	17 Καθως δε επλησιαζεν ο καιρος της επαγγελιας, την οποιαν ωμοσεν ο Θεος προς τον Αβρααμ, ηυξησεν ο λαος και επληθυνθη εν Αιγυπτω,
18 Till another king arose in Egypt, who knew not Joseph.	18 εωσου εσηκωθη βασιλευς αλλος, οστις δεν ηξευρε τον Ιωσηφ.
19 This same dealing craftily with our race, afflicted our fathers, that they should expose their children, to the end they might not be kept alive.	19 Ουτος δολιευθεις το γενος ημων, κατεθλιψε τους πατερας ημων, ωστε να καμη να ριπτωνται τα βρεφη αυτων, δια να μη ζωογονωνται?
20 At the same time was Moses born, and he was acceptable to God: who was nourished three months in his father's house.	20 εν τουτω τω καιρω εγεννηθη ο Μωυσης, και ειχε θειον καλλος? οστις ανετραφη τρεις μηνας εν τω οικω του πατρος αυτου.
21 And when he was exposed, Pharao's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.	21 Αφου δε ερριφθη, ανελαβεν αυτον η θυγατηρ του Φαραω και ανεθρεψεν αυτον δια να ηναι υιος αυτης.
22 And Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians; and he was mighty in his words and in his deeds.	22 Και εδιδαχθη ο Μωυσης πασαν την σοφιαν των Αιγυπτιων και ητο δυνατος εν λογοις και εν εργοις.
23 And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren, the children of Israel.	23 Ενω δε ετελειονε το τεσσαρακοστον ετος της ηλικιας αυτου, ηλθεν εις την καρδιαν αυτου να επισκεφθη τους αδελφους αυτου, τους υιους Ισραηλ.
24 And when he had seen one of them suffer wrong, he defended him; and striking the Egyptian, he avenged him who suffered the injury.	24 Και ιδων τινα αδικουμενον, υπερησπισθη αυτον και εκαμεν εκδικησιν υπερ του καταθλιβομενου, παταξας τον Αιγυπτιον.
25 And he thought that his brethren understood that God by his hand would save them; but they understood it not.	25 Ενομιζε δε οτι οι αδελφοι αυτου ηθελον νοησει οτι ο Θεος δια της χειρος αυτου διδει εις αυτους σωτηριαν? εκεινοι ομως δεν ενοησαν.
26 And the day following, he shewed himself to them when they were at strife; and would have reconciled them in peace, saying: Men, ye are brethren; why hurt you one another?	26 Την δε ακολουθον ημεραν εφανη εις αυτους, ενω εμαχοντο, και παρεκινησεν αυτους εις ειρηνην, ειπων? Ανθρωποι, αδελφοι εισθε σεις? δια τι αδικειτε αλληλους;
27 But he that did the injury to his neighbour thrust him away, saying: Who hath appointed thee prince and judge over us?	27 Ο δε αδικων τον πλησιον απεσπρωξεν αυτον, ειπων? Τις σε κατεστησεν αρχοντα και δικαστην εφ' ημας;
28 What, wilt thou kill me, as thou didst yesterday kill the Egyptian?	28 Μηπως θελεις συ να με φονευσης, καθ' ον τροπον εφονευσας χθες τον Αιγυπτιον;
29 And Moses fled upon this word, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begot two sons.	29 Τοτε ο Μωυσης εφυγε δια τον λογον τουτον και εγεινε παροικος εν γη Μαδιαμ, οπου εγεννησε δυο υιους.
30 And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the desert of mount Sina, an angel in a flame of fire in a bush.	30 Και αφου συνεπληρωθησαν τεσσαρακοντα ετη, εφανη εις αυτον αγγελος Κυριου εν τη ερημω του ορους Σινα εν μεσω φλογος καιομενης βατου.
31 And Moses seeing it, wondered at the sight. And as he drew near to view it, the voice of the Lord came unto him, saying:	31 Ο δε Μωυσης ιδων εθαυμασε δια το οραμα? και ενω επλησιαζε δια να παρατηρηση, ηλθε φωνη Κυριου προς αυτον?
32 I am the God of thy fathers; the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses being terrified, durst not behold.	32 Εγω ειμαι ο Θεος των πατερων σου, ο Θεος του Αβρααμ και ο Θεος του Ισαακ και ο Θεος του Ιακωβ. Εντρομος δε γενομενος ο Μωυσης, δεν ετολμα να παρατηρηση.
33 And the Lord said to him: Loose the shoes from thy feet, for the place wherein thou standest, is holy ground.	33 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Κυριος? Λυσον το υποδημα των ποδων σου? διοτι ο τοπος, επι του οποιου ιστασαι, ειναι γη αγια.
34 Seeing 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, and I will send thee into Egypt.	34 Ειδον, ειδον την ταλαιπωριαν του λαου μου του εν Αιγυπτω και ηκουσα τον στεναγμον αυτων και κατεβην δια να ελευθερωσω αυτους? και τωρα ελθε, θελω σε αποστειλει εις Αιγυπτον.
35 This Moses, whom they refused, saying: Who hath appointed thee prince and judge? him God sent to be prince and redeemer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.	35 Τουτον τον Μωυσην τον οποιον ηρνηθησαν ειποντες? Τις σε κατεστησεν αρχοντα και δικαστην; τουτον ο Θεος απεστειλεν αρχηγον και λυτρωτην δια χειρος του αγγελου του φανεντος εις αυτον εν τη βατω.
36 He brought them out, doing wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the desert forty years.	36 Ουτος εξηγαγεν αυτους, αφου εκαμε τερατα και σημεια εν γη Αιγυπτου και εν τη Ερυθρα θαλασση και εν τη ερημω τεσσαρακοντα ετη.
37 This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel: A prophet shall God raise up to you of your own brethren, as myself: him shall you hear.	37 Ουτος ειναι ο Μωυσης, οστις ειπε προς τους υιους του Ισραηλ? προφητην εκ των αδελφων σας θελει σας αναστησει Κυριος ο Θεος σας, ως εμε? αυτου θελετε ακουσει.
38 This is he that was in the church in the wilderness, with the angel who spoke to him on mount Sina, and with our fathers; who received the words of life to give unto us.	38 Ουτος ειναι οστις εν τη εκκλησια εν τη ερημω εσταθη μετα του αγγελου του λαλουντος προς αυτον εν τω ορει Σινα και μετα των πατερων ημων, και παρελαβε λογια ζωοποια δια να δωση εις ημας.
39 Whom our fathers would not obey; but thrust him away, and in their hearts turned back into Egypt,	39 Εις τον οποιον οι πατερες ημων δεν ηθελησαν να υπακουσωσιν, αλλ' απεβαλον και εστραφησαν εν ταις καρδιαις αυτων εις Αιγυπτον
40 Saying to Aaron: Make us gods to go before us. For as for this Moses, who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him.	40 ειποντες προς τον Ααρων? Καμε εις ημας θεους, οιτινες θελουσι προπορευεσθαι ημων? διοτι ουτος ο Μωυσης, οστις εξηγαγεν ημας εξ Αιγυπτου, δεν εξευρομεν τι συνεβη εις αυτον.
41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifices to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.	41 Και κατεσκευασαν μοσχον εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις και προσεφεραν θυσιαν εις το ειδωλον και ευφραινοντο εις τα εργα των χειρων αυτων.
42 And God turned, and gave them up to serve the host of heaven, as it is written in the books of the prophets: Did you offer victims and sacrifices to me for forty years, in the desert, O house of Israel?	42 Οθεν εστραφη ο Θεος και παρεδωκεν αυτους εις το να λατρευσωσι την στρατιαν του ουρανου, καθως ειναι γεγραμμενον εν τω βιβλιω των προφητων. Μηπως προσεφερατε εις εμε σφαγια και θυσιας τεσσαρακοντα ετη εν τη ερημω, οικος Ισραηλ;
43 And you took unto you the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Rempham, figures which you made to adore them. And I will carry you away beyond Babylon.	43 Μαλιστα ανελαβετε την σκηνην του Μολοχ και το αστρον του Θεου σας Ρεμφαν, τους τυπους, τους οποιους εκαμετε δια να προσκυνητε αυτους? δια τουτο θελω σας μετοικισει επεκεινα της Βαβυλωνος.
44 The tabernacle of the testimony was with our fathers in the desert, as God ordained for them, speaking to Moses, that he should make it according to the form which he had seen.	44 Η σκηνη του μαρτυριου ητο μετα των πατερων ημων εν τη ερημω, καθως διεταξεν εκεινος, οστις ελαλει προς τον Μωυσην, να κατασκευαση αυτην κατα τον τυπον τον οποιον ειχεν ιδει?
45 Which also our fathers receiving, brought in with Jesus, into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David.	45 την οποιαν και παραλαβοντες οι πατερες ημων, εφεραν μετα του Ιησου εις την κατακτηθεισαν γην των εθνων, τα οποια ο Θεος εξωσεν απ' εμπροσθεν των πατερων ημων, εως των ημερων του Δαβιδ?
46 Who found grace before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.	46 οστις ευρε χαριν ενωπιον του Θεου και ηυχηθη να ευρη κατοικιαν δια τον Θεον του Ιακωβ.
47 But Solomon built him a house.	47 Ο Σολομων δε ωκοδομησεν εις αυτον οικον.
48 Yet the most High dwelleth not in houses made by hands, as the prophet saith:	48 Αλλ' ο Υψιστος δεν κατοικει εν χειροποιητοις ναοις, καθως ο προφητης λεγει?
49 Heaven is my throne, and the earth my footstool. What house will you build me? saith the Lord; or what is the place of my resting?	49 Ο ουρανος ειναι θρονος μου, η δε γη υποποδιον των ποδων μου? ποιον οικον θελετε οικοδομησει δι' εμε, λεγει Κυριος, η ποιος ο τοπος της αναπαυσεως μου;
50 Hath not my hand made all these things?	50 Η χειρ μου δεν εκαμε ταυτα παντα;
51 You stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do you also.	51 Σκληροτραχηλοι και απεριτμητοι την καρδιαν και τα ωτα, σεις παντοτε αντιφερεσθε κατα του Πνευματος του Αγιου? καθως οι πατερες σας, ουτω και σεις.
52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? And they have slain them who foretold of the coming of the Just One; of whom you have been now the betrayers and murderers:	52 Τινα των προφητων δεν εδιωξαν οι πατερες σας; μαλιστα εφονευσαν εκεινους, οιτινες προκατηγγειλαν περι της ελευσεως του δικαιου, του οποιου σεις εγεινατε τωρα προδοται και φονεις?
53 Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it.	53 οιτινες ελαβετε τον νομον εκ διαταγων αγγελων και δεν εφυλαξατε.
54 Now hearing these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed with their teeth at him.	54 Ακουοντες δε ταυτα, κατεκοπτοντο τας καρδιας αυτων και ετριζον τους οδοντας κατ' αυτου.
55 But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looking up steadfastly to heaven, saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God. And he said: Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.	55 Ο δε Στεφανος, πληρης ων Πνευματος Αγιου, ατενισας εις τον ουρανον, ειδε την δοξαν του Θεου και τον Ιησουν ισταμενον εκ δεξιων του Θεου
56 And they crying out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and with one accord ran violently upon him.	56 και ειπεν? Ιδου, θεωρω τους ουρανους ανεωγμενους και τον Υιον του ανθρωπου ισταμενον εκ δεξιων του Θεου.
57 And casting him forth without the city, they stoned him; and the witnesses laid down their garments at the feet of a young man, whose name was Saul.	57 Τοτε φωναξαντες μετα φωνης μεγαλης, εφραξαν τα ωτα αυτων και ωρμησαν ομοθυμαδον επ' αυτον,
58 And they stoned Stephen, invoking, and saying: Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.	58 και εκβαλοντες εξω της πολεως ελιθοβολουν. Και οι μαρτυρες απεθεσαν τα ιματια αυτων εις τους ποδας νεανιου τινος ονομαζομενου Σαυλου.
59 And falling on his knees, he cried with a loud voice, saying: Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep in the Lord. And Saul was consenting to his death.	59 Και ελιθοβολουν τον Στεφανον, επικαλουμενον και λεγοντα? Κυριε Ιησου, δεξαι το πνευμα μου.
	60 Και γονατισας εφωναξε μετα φωνης μεγαλης? Κυριε, μη λογαριασης εις αυτους την αμαρτιαν ταυτην. Και τουτο ειπων εκοιμηθη.
