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.

Paul: “The magistrates have sent orders to release you. Now you may go on your way in peace.”

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.
But
Paul said to the officers, “They beat us publicly without a trial and threw us into prison, even though we are Roman citizens. And now do they want to send us away secretly? Absolutely not! Let them come themselves and
escort us out!”

alarmed to hear that

The Jews, however, became
jealous. So they brought in some troublemakers from the marketplace, formed a
mob, and sent the city into an
uproar. They

Silas, hoping to bring them out to the people.
And the brethren immediately sent away
Paul and
Silas by night unto
Berea: who coming thither went into the
synagogue of the Jews.

Paul to the coast, but
Silas and

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.
Some
Epicurean and
Stoic philosophers also began to
debate with him. Some of them asked, “What is this
babbler trying to say?” Others said, “He seems to be advocating foreign gods.” They said this because
Paul was
proclaiming the good news of Jesus and the resurrection.
And they took him, and brought him unto
Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new doctrine,
whereof thou speakest, is?
So they took
Paul and brought him to the
Areopagus, where they asked him, “May we know what this new teaching is that you are presenting?
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.
Then
Paul stood up in the meeting of the
Areopagus and said, “Men of Athens, I see that in every way you are very religious.

Gallio was the deputy of
Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one
accord against
Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,

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:
But just as
Paul was about to speak,
Gallio told the Jews, “If this matter involved a
wrongdoing or
vicious crime, O Jews, it would be reasonable for me to hear your
complaint.
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.

shaved in Cenchrea to keep a

And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye
baptized? And they said, Unto John’s baptism.
“Into what, then, were you
baptized?”
Paul asked. “The baptism of John,” they replied.
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.
Paul explained: “John’s baptism was a baptism of
repentance. He told the people to believe in the One coming after him, that is, in Jesus.”

Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and
prophesied.

prophesied.
And he went into the
synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and

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.
And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:
God did extraordinary miracles through the hands of Paul,
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.
Now there were some
itinerant Jewish exorcists who tried to
invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those with evil spirits. They would say, “I bind you by Jesus, whom
Paul proclaims.”
And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
Eventually, one of the evil spirits answered them, “Jesus I know, and I know about Paul, but who are you?”
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.
After these things had happened,
Paul resolved in the Spirit to go to Jerusalem after he had passed through
Macedonia and
Achaia. “After I have been there,” he said, “I must see Rome as well.”

And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.
Paul wanted to go before the assembly, but the disciples would not allow him.
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.
Even some of
Paul’s friends who were officials of the province of Asia sent word to him,
begging him not to
venture into the theatre.
And after the
uproar was ceased,
Paul called unto him the disciples, and embraced them, and departed for to go into
Macedonia.
When the
uproar had ended,
Paul sent for the disciples. And after
encouraging them, he said goodbye to them and left for
Macedonia.
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.
On the first day of the week we came together to break bread. Since
Paul was ready to leave the next day, he talked to them and kept on speaking until
midnight.
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.
And a certain young man named Eutychus, seated in the window, was sinking into a deep sleep as
Paul talked on and on. When he was sound
asleep, he fell from the third story and was
picked up dead.
And
Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Trouble not
yourselves; for his life is in him.
But
Paul went down, threw himself on the young man, and embraced him. “Do not be
alarmed!” he said. “He is still alive!”
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.
Then
Paul went back
upstairs, broke bread, and
ate. And after speaking until
daybreak, he departed.
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.
We went on
ahead to the ship and sailed to Assos, where we were to take
Paul aboard. He had arranged this because he was going there on foot.
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.
Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus to avoid
spending time in the province of Asia, because he was in a
hurry to reach Jerusalem, if possible, by the day of
Pentecost.
And from
Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the church.
From
Miletus,
Paul sent to Ephesus for the elders of the church.
And when he had thus spoken, he
kneeled down, and prayed with them all.
When
Paul had said this, he
knelt down with all of them and prayed.
They all
wept openly as they embraced
Paul and
kissed him.
And finding disciples, we
tarried there seven days: who said to
Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.
We sought out the disciples in Tyre and stayed with them seven days. Through the Spirit they kept telling Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
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.
Leaving the next day, we went on to Caesarea and stayed at the home of Philip the
evangelist, who was one of the Seven.
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.
Coming over to us, he took Paul’s belt, bound his own feet and hands, and said, “The Holy Spirit says: ‘In this way the Jews of Jerusalem will bind the owner of this belt and hand him over to the Gentiles.’”
And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place,
besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.
When we heard this, we and the people there
pleaded with
Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
