NEW AMERICAN BIBLEGREEK BIBLE
1 In Iconium they entered the Jewish synagogue together and spoke in such a way that a great number of both Jews and Greeks came to believe,1 Εν δε τω Ικονιω εισελθοντες ομου εις την συναγωγην των Ιουδαιων, ελαλησαν ουτως ωστε επιστευσε πολυ πληθος Ιουδαιων τε και Ελληνων.
2 although the disbelieving Jews stirred up and poisoned the minds of the Gentiles against the brothers.2 Οσοι δε Ιουδαιοι δεν επειθοντο παρωξυναν και διεστρεψαν τας ψυχας των εθνικων κατα των αδελφων.
3 So they stayed for a considerable period, speaking out boldly for the Lord, who confirmed the word about his grace by granting signs and wonders to occur through their hands.3 Ικανον λοιπον καιρον διετριψαν λαλουντες μετα παρρησιας περι του Κυριου, οστις εμαρτυρει εις τον λογον της χαριτος αυτου, και εδιδε να γινωνται σημεια και τερατα δια των χειρων αυτων.
4 The people of the city were divided: some were with the Jews; others, with the apostles.4 Εσχισθη δε το πληθος της πολεως, και οι μεν ησαν μετα των Ιουδαιων, οι δε μετα των αποστολων.
5 When there was an attempt by both the Gentiles and the Jews, together with their leaders, to attack and stone them,5 Και οτε ωρμησαν οι εθνικοι και οι Ιουδαιοι μετα των αρχοντων αυτων εις το να υβρισωσι και να λιθοβολησωσιν αυτους,
6 they realized it and fled to the Lycaonian cities of Lystra and Derbe and to the surrounding countryside,6 εννοησαντες κατεφυγον εις τας πολεις της Λυκαονιας Λυστραν και Δερβην και τα περιχωρα,
7 where they continued to proclaim the good news.7 και εκει εκηρυττον το ευαγγελιον.
8 At Lystra there was a crippled man, lame from birth, who had never walked.8 Εν δε τοις Λυστροις εκαθητο ανηρ τις αδυνατος τους ποδας, χωλος υπαρχων εκ κοιλιας μητρος αυτου, οστις ποτε δεν ειχε περιπατησει.
9 He listened to Paul speaking, who looked intently at him, saw that he had the faith to be healed,9 Ουτος ηκουε τον Παυλον λαλουντα? οστις ατενισας εις αυτον και ιδων οτι εχει πιστιν δια να σωθη,
10 and called out in a loud voice, "Stand up straight on your feet." He jumped up and began to walk about.10 ειπε μετα μεγαλης φωνης? Σηκωθητι επι τους ποδας σου ορθος. Και επηδα και περιεπατει.
11 When the crowds saw what Paul had done, they cried out in Lycaonian, "The gods have come down to us in human form."11 Οι δε οχλοι, ιδοντες τουτο το οποιον εκαμεν ο Παυλος, υψωσαν την φωνην αυτων, λεγοντες Λυκαονιστι? Οι θεοι ομοιωθεντες με ανθρωπους κατεβησαν προς ημας.
12 They called Barnabas "Zeus" and Paul "Hermes," because he was the chief speaker.12 Και ωνομαζον τον μεν Βαρναβαν Δια, τον δε Παυλον Ερμην, επειδη αυτος ητο ο αρχηγος του λογου.
13 And the priest of Zeus, whose temple was at the entrance to the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, for he together with the people intended to offer sacrifice.13 Και ο ιερευς του Διος, του οντος εμπροσθεν της πολεως αυτων, εφερε ταυρους και στεμματα εις τας πυλας μετα του οχλου και ηθελε να προσφερη θυσιαν.
14 The apostles Barnabas and Paul tore their garments when they heard this and rushed out into the crowd, shouting,14 Ακουσαντες δε οι αποστολοι Βαρναβας και Παυλος, διεσχισαν τα ιματια αυτων και επηδησαν εις το μεσον του οχλου, κραζοντες
15 "Men, why are you doing this? We are of the same nature as you, human beings. We proclaim to you good news that you should turn from these idols to the living God, 'who made heaven and earth and sea and all that is in them.'15 και λεγοντες? Ανδρες, τι καμνετε ταυτα; και ημεις ειμεθα ανθρωποι ομοιοπαθεις με σας, κηρυττοντες προς εσας να επιστρεψητε απο τουτων των ματαιων προς τον Θεον τον ζωντα, οστις εκαμε τον ουρανον και την γην και την θαλασσαν και παντα τα εν αυτοις?
16 In past generations he allowed all Gentiles to go their own ways;16 οστις εν ταις παρελθουσαις γενεαις αφηκε παντα τα εθνη να περιπατωσιν εν ταις οδοις αυτων.
17 yet, in bestowing his goodness, he did not leave himself without witness, for he gave you rains from heaven and fruitful seasons, and filled you with nourishment and gladness for your hearts."17 καιτοι δεν αφηκεν αμαρτυρητον εαυτον αγαθαποιων, διδων εις ημας ουρανοθεν βροχας και καιρους καρποφορους, γεμιζων τροφης και ευφροσυνης τας καρδιας ημων.
18 Even with these words, they scarcely restrained the crowds from offering sacrifice to them.18 Και ταυτα λεγοντες μολις εμποδισαν τους οχλους, ωστε να μη προσφερωσι θυσιαν εις αυτους.
19 However, some Jews from Antioch and Iconium arrived and won over the crowds. They stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.19 Εν τουτω δε ηλθον Ιουδαιοι εξ Αντιοχειας και Ικονιου, και πεισαντες τους οχλους και λιθοβολησαντες τον Παυλον, εσυραν εξω της πολεως, νομισαντες οτι απεθανεν.
20 But when the disciples gathered around him, he got up and entered the city. On the following day he left with Barnabas for Derbe.20 Οτε δε περιεκυκλωσαν αυτον οι μαθηται, σηκωθεις εισηλθεν εις την πολιν και τη επαυριον εξηλθε μετα του Βαρναβα εις Δερβην.
21 After they had proclaimed the good news to that city and made a considerable number of disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch.21 Και αφου εκηρυξαν το ευαγγελιον εν τη πολει εκεινη και εμαθητευσαν ικανους, υπεστρεψαν εις την Λυστραν και Ικονιον και Αντιοχειαν,
22 They strengthened the spirits of the disciples and exhorted them to persevere in the faith, saying, "It is necessary for us to undergo many hardships to enter the kingdom of God."22 επιστηριζοντες τας ψυχας των μαθητων, προτρεποντες να εμμενωσιν εις την πιστιν, και διδασκοντες οτι δια πολλων θλιψεων πρεπει να εισελθωμεν εις την βασιλειαν του Θεου.
23 They appointed presbyters for them in each church and, with prayer and fasting, commended them to the Lord in whom they had put their faith.23 Και αφου εχειροτονησαν εις αυτους πρεσβυτερους κατα πασαν εκκλησιαν, προσευχηθεντες με νηστειας, αφιερωσαν αυτους εις τον Κυριον, εις τον οποιον ειχον πιστευσει.
24 Then they traveled through Pisidia and reached Pamphylia.24 Και διελθοντες την Πισιδιαν ηλθον εις Παμφυλιαν,
25 After proclaiming the word at Perga they went down to Attalia.25 και κηρυξαντες τον λογον εν Περγη, κατεβησαν εις Ατταλειαν,
26 From there they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work they had now accomplished.26 και εκειθεν απεπλευσαν εις Αντιοχειαν, οθεν ησαν παραδεδομενοι εις την χαριν του Θεου δια το εργον, το οποιον εξετελεσαν.
27 And when they arrived, they called the church together and reported what God had done with them and how he had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.27 Ελθοντες δε και συναξαντες την εκκλησιαν, ανηγγειλαν οσα εκαμεν ο Θεος δι' αυτων, και οτι ηνοιξεν εις τα εθνη θυραν πιστεως.
28 Then they spent no little time with the disciples.28 Και διετριβον εκει ουκ ολιγον καιρον μετα των μαθητων.
