And Jesus looked upon him, and said Thou art Simon the son of Jona; thou shalt be called Cephas. ⁴³ The next day, Jesus was disposed to depart for Galilee: and he found Philip and said to him, Come after me. ⁴⁴ And Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Simon. ⁴⁵ And Philip found Nathaniel, and said to him: We have found him, of whom Moses wrote in the law, and the prophets, Jesus the son of Joseph, who is of Nazareth.

⁴⁵ And Philip found Nathaniel, and said to him: We have found him, of whom Moses wrote in the law, and the prophets, Jesus the son of Joseph, who is of Nazareth. ⁴⁶ Nathaniel said to him: Can there be any good thing from Nazareth? Philip said to him: Come, and see. ⁴⁷ And Jesus saw Nathaniel coming towards him, and said of him: Behold a real Israelite, in whom is no deceit. ⁴⁸ Nathaniel said to him: Whence knowest thou me? Jesus said to him: Before Philip called thee when thou wast under the fig-tree, I saw thee. ⁴⁹ Nathaniel answered, and said to him: Rabbi; thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.

⁵¹ He said to him: Verily, verily, I say to you, That hereafter ye will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending unto the Son of man.

² And he came to Jesus by night, and said to him: Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher sent from God; for no one can work those signs which thou workest, unless God be with him.

¹⁴ And as Moses elevated the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up: ¹⁵ that every one who believeth in him, may not perish, but may have life eternal. ¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him, should not perish, but should have life eternal. ¹⁷ For God sent not his Son into the world, to condemn the world; but that the world might live by means of him.

³⁴ For he whom God hath sent, speaketh the words of God; for God hath not given the Spirit by measure to him. ³⁵ The Father loveth the Son, and hath given every thing into his hands. ³⁶ He that believeth on the Son, hath life eternal; but he who obeyeth not the Son, shall not see life. but the wrath of God will abide upon him.

¹ And Jesus knew, that the Pharisees had heard; that he made many disciples, and baptized more than John. ² Yet Jesus himself did not baptize but his disciples.

² Yet Jesus himself did not baptize but his disciples. ³ And he left Judaea, and went again into Galilee.

⁹ The Samaritan woman said to him: How dost thou, a Jew, ask drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman? For the Jews have no familiarity with Samaritans.

²⁷ And while he was speaking, his disciples came. And they wondered that he would converse with the woman; yet no one said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her? ²⁸ And the woman left her water-pot, and went to the city, and said to the people: ²⁹ Come, see a man that told me every thing I ever did: is not this the Messiah?

³¹ In the mean time, his disciples entreated him, and said to him: Our Rabbi, eat. ³² But he said to them: I have food to eat, of which ye are ignorant. ³³ The disciples said among themselves: Hath any one brought him something to eat? ³⁴ Jesus said to them: My food is to do the pleasure of him that sent me, and to accomplish his work. ³⁵ Do ye not say, that after four months cometh the harvest? Behold, I say to you, and lift up your eyes, and look upon the grounds, that they are white, and have already come to the harvest.

⁴⁰ And when these Samaritans came to him, they requested him to tarry with them; and he remained with them two days.

²² For neither doth the Father judge any one, but hath given all judgment to the Son: ²³ that every man may honor the Son, as he honoreth the Father. He that honoreth not the Son, honoreth not the Father that sent him. ²⁴ Verily, verily, I say to you, That he who heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath life eternal, and will not come into condemnation, but hath passed from death to life.

²⁴ Verily, verily, I say to you, That he who heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath life eternal, and will not come into condemnation, but hath passed from death to life. ²⁵ Verily, verily, I say to you, That the hour cometh, and even now come, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and they that hear, will live. ²⁶ For, as the Father hath life in himself, so hath he given to the Son also, to have life in himself: ²⁷ and hath moreover given him authority to execute judgment. But that he is the Son of man, ²⁸ wonder not at this; for the hour cometh when all that are in their graves will hear his voice; ²⁹ and will come forth; they that have done good, to the resurrection of life, and they that have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.

³⁹ Search the scriptures; for in them, ye think, there is life eternal for you; and they testify of me. ⁴⁰ And ye are unwilling to come to me, that life eternal may be yours.

²⁷ Labor not for the food that perisheth, but for the food that abideth unto life eternal, which the Son of man will give to you; for him hath God the Father sealed.

⁶³ It is the Spirit that vivifieth; the body profiteth nothing. The words which I have used with you, they are spirit, and they are life.

⁶⁸ Simon Cephas replied, and said: My Lord, to whom shall we go? The words of life eternal are with thee.

¹⁷ He that wisheth to do his pleasure, will understand my doctrine, whether it is from God, or whether I speak from my own pleasure.

³⁷ And on the great day, which was the last of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, and said: If any man thirst, let him come to me and drink.

³² Jesus said to them: Many good works have I showed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?

³⁶ do ye say to him, whom the Father, hath sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said to you, I am the Son of God? ³⁷ And if I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. ³⁸ But if I do them, although ye believe not me, yet believe the works; that ye may know and believe, that my Father is in me, and I in my Father.

⁵² and not only for the people, but also that he might collect together the sons of God that were dispersed.

³² And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to me.

¹² And when he had washed their feet, he resumed his long garments, and reclined. And he said to them: Understand ye what I have done to you?

²⁰ Verily, verily, I say to you: He that receiveth him whom I send, receiveth me; and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.

¹⁷ the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, and knoweth him not: but ye know him, because he abideth with you, and is in you.

²² Judas, not Iscariot, said to him: My Lord, how is it that thou art to manifest thyself to us, and not to the world?

¹⁶ It is not ye that chose me, but I that have chosen you; and I have appointed you, that ye also should go and yield fruits, and that your fruits should continue; so that whatever ye may ask of my Father in my name, he may give it you.

²⁷ And do ye also testify; for ye have been with me from the beginning.

¹³ But when the Spirit of truth shall come, he will lead you into all the truth. For he will not speak from his own mind; but whatever he heareth, that will he speak: and he will make known to you things to come.

³² Behold, the hour cometh, and hath now come, when ye will be dispersed, each to his place; and ye will leave me alone. But I am not alone, for the Father is with me.

⁸ For, the words thou gavest to me, I have given to them; and they have received them, and have known certainly, that I came from thy presence; and they have believed that thou didst send me.

²⁰ And it is not for them only that I pray, but also for those who shall believe in me through their discourse;

³ Then Judas received a regiment, and from the presence of the chief priests and Pharisees he had officials; and he came to the place with lanterns and lamps and weapons. ⁴ And Jesus, as he knew every thing that was to befall him, went forth and said to them: Whom seek ye? ⁵ They say to him: Jesus the Nazarean. Jesus said to them: I am he. And Judas the betrayer was also standing with them. ⁶ And when Jesus said to them, I am he, they drew back and fell upon the ground. ⁷ And again Jesus asked them: Whom seek ye? And they said: Jesus the Nazarean. ⁸ Jesus said to them: I have told you that I am he; and if ye seek me, let these go away:

¹² Then the regiment and the chiliarchs and the officials of the Jews laid hold of Jesus, and bound him;

²⁸ And they led Jesus from the presence of Caiaphas unto the Praetorium; and it was morning. But they did not enter the Praetorium, lest they should defile themselves before they had eaten the passover.

¹ And the first day of the week, in the morning, while it was yet dark, Mary Magdalena came to the sepulchre: and she saw that the stone was removed from the grave. ² And she ran, and came to Simon Cephas, and to that other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them: They have taken away our Lord from the sepulchre, and I know not where they have laid him. ³ And Simon set out, and the other disciple, and they were going to the sepulchre. ⁴ And they both ran together; but that disciple outran Simon, and came first to the sepulchre. ⁵ And he looked in, and saw the linen cloths lying: but he did not go in. ⁶ And after him came Simon; and he entered the sepulchre, and saw the linen cloths lying; ⁷ and the napkin, that had been wrapped about his head, was not with the linen cloths, but was folded up, and laid in a place by itself. ⁸ Then entered also the disciple who came first to the sepulchre; and he saw, and believed. ⁹ For they had not yet learned from the scriptures, that he was to arise from the dead. ¹⁰ And those disciples went away again to their place. ¹¹ But Mary remained standing at the sepulchre, and weeping; and as she wept, she looked into the sepulchre ¹² and saw two angels in white, who were sitting, one at the pillows and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus was laid. ¹³ And they said to her: Woman, why weepest thou? She said to them: Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him ¹⁴ Having said this, she turned round, and saw Jesus standing, but did not know that it was Jesus. ¹⁵ Jesus said to her: Woman, why weepest thou? and, whom dost thou seek? And she supposed that he was the gardener: and she said to him: My lord, if thou hast borne him away, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will go and take him away. ¹⁶ Jesus said to her: Mary! And she turned, and said to him in Hebrew: Rabbuni; which is interpreted Teacher. ¹⁷ Jesus said to her: Touch me not; for not yet have I ascended to my Father. But go to my brethren, and say to them: I ascend to my Father and your Father, and to my God and your God. ¹⁸ Then came Mary Magdalena, and told the disciples that she had seen our Lord; and that he had said these things to her. ¹⁹ And on the evening of that first day of the week, the doors being shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came, and stood in the midst of them, and said to them: Peace be with you. ²⁰ Having said this, he showed them his hands and his side. And the disciples rejoiced, when they saw our Lord. ²¹ And Jesus said to them; Peace be with you. As my Father hath sent me, I also send you.

³¹ But these are written, that ye may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God; and that when ye believe, ye may have life eternal by his name.

¹³ And Jesus came, and took bread and fishes, and gave to his disciples.

¹⁷ Again, Jesus said to him the third time: Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? And it grieved Cephas, that he said to him the third time, Lovest thou me; and he said to him: My Lord, thou understandest all things, thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus said to him: Feed my sheep for me.

²¹ Him Cephas saw, and said to Jesus: My Lord, as for this man, what? ²² Jesus said to him: If I will, that he abide here until I come, what is that to thee? Follow thou me.

² until the day when he was taken up, after he had instructed those legates whom he had chosen by the Holy Spirit.

² until the day when he was taken up, after he had instructed those legates whom he had chosen by the Holy Spirit. ³ To whom also he showed himself alive after he had suffered, by numerous signs, during forty days, while he was seen by them, and spoke of the kingdom of God.

⁸ But when the Holy Spirit shall come upon you, ye will receive energy, and will be witnesses for me in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and also among the Samaritans, and unto the ends of the earth.

¹⁰ And while they were looking toward heav, as he departed, two men were found standing near them, in white garments,

²² commencing from the baptism of John, unto the day he was taken up from us, should be, with us, a witness of his resurrection.

² suddenly there was a sound from heaven, as of a violent wind; and the whole house where they were sitting was filled with it. ³ And there appeared to them tongues, which were divided like flame; and they rested upon each of them. ⁴ And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak in diverse languages, as the Spirit gave them to speak.

⁴ And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak in diverse languages, as the Spirit gave them to speak. ⁵ Now there were resident at Jerusalem persons who feared God, Jews from all the nations under heaven.

¹¹ and those from Crete, and Arabians. Lo, we hear them speak in our own languages the wonders of God. ¹² And they all wondered and were astonished, saying one to another: From whom is this thing?

²² Men, sons of Israel, hear ye these words: Jesus the Nazarean, a man made manifest among you by God, by those deeds of power and prodigies which God wrought among you by his hand, as ye yourselves know; ²³ him, being hereto appointed by the prescience and the good pleasure of God, ye have delivered into the hands of the wicked; and have crucified and slain. ²⁴ But God hath resuscitated him, and hath loosed the cords of the grave; because it could not be, that he should be held in the grave.

²⁴ But God hath resuscitated him, and hath loosed the cords of the grave; because it could not be, that he should be held in the grave.

³² This Jesus hath God resuscitated; and we all are his witnesses. ³³ And he it is, who is exalted by the right hand of God, and hath received from the Father a promise respecting the Holy Spirit, and hath sent this gift which, lo, ye see and hear.

³⁶ Therefore, let all the house of Israel know, assuredly, that God hath made that Jesus whom ye crucified, to be Lord and Messiah.

³⁸ Simon said to them: Repent, and be baptized every one of you, in the name of the Lord Jesus, for the remission of sins; so that ye may receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

³⁸ Simon said to them: Repent, and be baptized every one of you, in the name of the Lord Jesus, for the remission of sins; so that ye may receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. ³⁹ For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all those afar off whom God will call.

¹ And it occurred, as Simon Cephas and John went together up to the temple, at the time of prayer, being the ninth hour,

¹⁴ But ye denied the holy and just One, and demanded that a murderer should be released to you. ¹⁵ And that Prince of life ye slew; and him, hath God raised from the dead, and all of us are witnesses of it. ¹⁶ And, by the faith in his name, he hath strengthened and cured this man, whom ye see and know; and faith in him hath given the man this soundness before you all.

¹⁸ and God, according as he had previously announced by the mouth of all the prophets that the Messiah would suffer, hath in this manner fulfilled it.

²⁵ Ye are the children of the prophets: and that covenant which God made with our fathers, when he said to Abraham, that in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed, ²⁶ he hath first established to you: and God hath sent his Son to bless you, if ye will be converted, and repent of your wickedness.

¹⁰ be it known to you, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Messiah the Nazarean, whom ye crucified, and whom God hath raised from the dead, lo, by him, doth this man stand here before you recovered.

¹⁰ be it known to you, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Messiah the Nazarean, whom ye crucified, and whom God hath raised from the dead, lo, by him, doth this man stand here before you recovered. ¹¹ This is the stone, which ye builders rejected; and it hath become the head of the corner. ¹² Neither is there deliverance in any other; for there is not another name under heaven, which is given to men, whereby to live.

¹⁹ Simon Cephas and John answered, and said to them: Whether it be right before God, that we hearken to you more than to God, judge ye. ²⁰ For we cannot but speak that which we have seen and heard.

²⁶ The kings of the earth and the potentates stood up, and they consulted together, against the Lord, and against his anointed. ²⁷ For, in reality, against thy holy Son Jesus whom thou hast anointed, Herod and Pilate, with the Gentiles and the congregation of Israel, have been combined together in this city,

³¹ And when they had prayed and made supplications, the place in which they were assembled was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and spoke the word of God boldly.

¹⁹ Then the angel of the Lord, by night, opened the door of the prison, and let them out; and said to them: ²⁰ Go, stand in the temple, and speak to the people all these words of life.

²⁴ And when the chief priests and rulers of the temple heard these words, they were astonished at them; and they studied what this could mean.

²⁹ And Simon, with the legates, answered and said to them: God is to be obeyed, rather than men. ³⁰ The God of our fathers hath raised up that Jesus, whom ye slew when ye hanged him on a tree. ³¹ Him hath God established as a head and vivifier; and hath exalted him to his own right hand, so that he might give repentance and remission of sins to Israel.

³¹ Him hath God established as a head and vivifier; and hath exalted him to his own right hand, so that he might give repentance and remission of sins to Israel. ³² And we are the witnesses of these things; and also the Holy Spirit, whom God giveth to them that believe in him.

³ Therefore brethren, search out, and elect from among you, seven men of whom there is good testimony, men full of the Spirit of the Lord, and of wisdom; that we may place them over this business: ⁴ and we will continue in prayer, and in the ministration of the word.

⁵² For, which of the prophets did not your fathers persecute and kill, even them, who foretold the coming of the Just One, whom ye delivered up and slew?

⁵⁶ And he said: Lo, I see heaven open, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.

² And believing men gathered up and buried Stephen. And they lamented over him greatly.

¹² But when they gave credence to Philip, as he preached the kingdom of God, in the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah; they were baptized, both men and women.

¹⁵ And they went down, and prayed over them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit. ¹⁶ For he was not yet on any one of them; and they had only been baptized in the name of our Lord Jesus.

¹⁶ For he was not yet on any one of them; and they had only been baptized in the name of our Lord Jesus. ¹⁷ Then they laid the hand on them; and they received the Holy Spirit.

²⁶ And the angel of the Lord spake with Philip, and said to him: Arise, go to the south, along the desert way that leadeth down from Jerusalem to Gaza.

²⁹ And the Holy Spirit said to Philip: Go near, and join thyself to the chariot.

³⁵ Then Philip opened his mouth and, from that scripture, began to preach to him concerning our Lord Jesus. ³⁶ And as they proceeded on the way, they came to a certain place in which there was water. And the eunuch said: Lo, here is water; what doth forbid, that I should be baptized?

⁴⁰ And Philip was found at Azotus; and from there he travelled about, and preached in all the cities, until he came to Caesarea.

⁴ And he fell to the ground; and he heard a voice which said to him: Saul! Saul! why persecutest thou me? It will be hard for thee to kick against the goads. ⁵ He replied, and said: Who art thou, my Lord? And our Lord said: I am Jesus the Nazarean, whom thou persecutest.

⁵ He replied, and said: Who art thou, my Lord? And our Lord said: I am Jesus the Nazarean, whom thou persecutest. ⁶ But arise and go into the city, and there it will be told thee what thou oughtest to do.

⁶ But arise and go into the city, and there it will be told thee what thou oughtest to do.

¹⁰ And there was in Damascus a certain disciple, whose name was Ananias. And the Lord said to him, in a vision: Ananias! And he said: Lo, I am here, my Lord. ¹¹ And our Lord said to him: Arise, go to the street which is called Straight; and inquire in the house of Judas, for Saul who is from the city of Tarsus: for, lo, while he prayed,

¹⁵ The Lord said to him: Arise and go; for he is to me a chosen vessel, to carry my name to the Gentiles, and to kings, and among the sons of Israel.

¹⁷ Then Ananias went to the house to him; and he laid his hand upon him, and said to him: Saul, my brother, our Lord Jesus, he who appeared to thee by the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thy eyes might be opened, and thou be filled with the Holy Spirit.

³¹ Moreover the church, in all Judaea, and in Galilee, and in Samaria, had peace and was edified; and it walked in the fear of God, and abounded in the consolation of the Holy Spirit.

³⁶ And there was in the city of Joppa, a certain female disciple named Tabitha; and she was rich in good works, and in the alms which she did.

³⁸ And the disciples heard that Simon was in the city of Lydda, which is near to Joppa; and they sent two men to him, to request of him that he would not delay to come to them.

⁴² And this became known throughout the city; and many believed on our Lord. ⁴³ And he tarried in Joppa not a few days: and he lodged in the house of Simon a tanner.

¹ And there was a certain man in Caesarea, whose name was Cornelius, a centurion of the regiment called the Italian. ² And he was righteous, and feared God, he and all his house; and he did much alms among the people, and prayed to God at all times.

² And he was righteous, and feared God, he and all his house; and he did much alms among the people, and prayed to God at all times. ³ This man distinctly saw, in a vision, about the ninth hour of the day, an angel of God, who came in to him and said to him: Cornelius! ⁴ And he looked upon him, and was afraid; and he said: What, my Lord? And the angel said to him: Thy prayers and thy alms have come up in remembrance before God. ⁵ And now, send men to the city of Joppa, and bring Simon who is called Cephas. ⁶ Lo, he lodgeth in the house of Simon the tanner, which is by the side of the sea.

⁶ Lo, he lodgeth in the house of Simon the tanner, which is by the side of the sea. ⁷ And when the angel that talked with him was gone, he called two of his household, and a soldier who feared God and was obedient to him.

⁷ And when the angel that talked with him was gone, he called two of his household, and a soldier who feared God and was obedient to him.

⁸ And he related to them all that he had seen, and sent them to Joppa.

⁸ And he related to them all that he had seen, and sent them to Joppa. ⁹ And the next day, as they travelled the road and approached the city, Simon ascended the roof to pray, at the sixth hour.

¹⁰ And he became hungry, and desired to eat. And while they were providing for him, he fell into a trance. ¹¹ And he saw the heavens opened, and a certain vessel fastened at the four corners, and it was like a great sheet; and it descended from heaven to the a earth.

¹¹ And he saw the heavens opened, and a certain vessel fastened at the four corners, and it was like a great sheet; and it descended from heaven to the a earth. ¹² And there were in it all fourfooted animals, and creeping things of the earth, and fowls of heaven.

¹² And there were in it all fourfooted animals, and creeping things of the earth, and fowls of heaven. ¹³ And a voice came to him, which said: Simon, arise, slay and eat.

¹³ And a voice came to him, which said: Simon, arise, slay and eat. ¹⁴ And Simon said: Far be it, my Lord: for never have I eaten any thing unclean and polluted.

¹⁴ And Simon said: Far be it, my Lord: for never have I eaten any thing unclean and polluted.

¹⁴ And Simon said: Far be it, my Lord: for never have I eaten any thing unclean and polluted. ¹⁵ And again the second time, there was a voice to him: What God hath cleansed, make thou not unclean.

¹⁵ And again the second time, there was a voice to him: What God hath cleansed, make thou not unclean.

¹⁵ And again the second time, there was a voice to him: What God hath cleansed, make thou not unclean. ¹⁶ And this was done three times; and the vessel was taken up to heaven.

¹⁶ And this was done three times; and the vessel was taken up to heaven. ¹⁷ And while Simon was wondering with himself, what the vision he had seen could denote, the men who were sent by Cornelius arrived; and they inquired for the house in which Simon lodged, and came and stood at the gate of the court.

¹⁷ And while Simon was wondering with himself, what the vision he had seen could denote, the men who were sent by Cornelius arrived; and they inquired for the house in which Simon lodged, and came and stood at the gate of the court.

¹⁷ And while Simon was wondering with himself, what the vision he had seen could denote, the men who were sent by Cornelius arrived; and they inquired for the house in which Simon lodged, and came and stood at the gate of the court. ¹⁸ And there they called out, and asked if Simon who is called Cephas lodged there?

¹⁸ And there they called out, and asked if Simon who is called Cephas lodged there? ¹⁹ And while Simon was reflecting on the vision, the Spirit said to him: Lo, three men are inquiring for thee.

¹⁹ And while Simon was reflecting on the vision, the Spirit said to him: Lo, three men are inquiring for thee.

²⁰ Arise, go down, and accompany them; and let not thy mind hesitate, for I have sent them. ²¹ Then Simon went down to the men, and said to them: I am he for whom ye inquire: what is the cause for which ye have come? ²² They say to him: A certain man whose name is Cornelius, a centurion fearing God, and of whom all the people of the Jews bear good report, was told in vision, by a holy angel, to send and bring thee to his house, that he might hear discourse from thee.

²² They say to him: A certain man whose name is Cornelius, a centurion fearing God, and of whom all the people of the Jews bear good report, was told in vision, by a holy angel, to send and bring thee to his house, that he might hear discourse from thee. ²³ And Simon led them in, and entertained them where he lodged.

²⁸ And he said to them: Ye know, that it is not lawful for a Jewish man, to associate with an alien who is not of his race: but God hath showed me, that I should not say of any one, that he is defiled or unclean. ²⁹ Therefore I came readily, when ye sent for me. But, I ask you, for what cause did ye send for me?

²⁹ Therefore I came readily, when ye sent for me. But, I ask you, for what cause did ye send for me? ³⁰ And Cornelius said to him: It is four days ago, that, lo, I was fasting; and at the ninth hour, while I was praying in my house, a certain man stood before me, clothed in white,

³¹ and said to me: Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and there remembrance of thy alms before God. ³² But send to the city of Joppa, and bring Simon who is called Cephas: lo, he lodgeth in the house of Simon the tanner, which is by the side of the sea. And he will come and converse with thee.

³² But send to the city of Joppa, and bring Simon who is called Cephas: lo, he lodgeth in the house of Simon the tanner, which is by the side of the sea.

³⁵ but, among all the nations, he who feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is acceptable with him.

³⁹ And we are his witnesses, as to whatever he did in all the region of Judaea and in Jerusalem. This same person the Jews hanged on a tree, and slew him.

⁴¹ not indeed by all the people, but by us, who were chosen of God to be his witnesses, and who ate and drank with him after his resurrection from the dead.

⁴⁵ And the circumcised brethren who came with him, were amazed and astonished, that the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out upon the Gentiles also.

² And when Simon went up to Jerusalem, they who were of the circumcision contended with him, ³ saying; that he had gone in to be with uncircumcised persons, and had eaten with them.

³ saying; that he had gone in to be with uncircumcised persons, and had eaten with them.

⁵ As I was in Joppa, praying, I saw in vision, that a certain vessel descended, which was like a sheet, and it was tied at its four corners; and it descended from heaven and came to me. ⁶ And I looked upon it, and I saw that in it were fourfooted animals, and reptiles of the earth, and fowls of heaven. ⁷ And I heard a voice, which said to me: Simon, arise slay and eat. ⁸ And I said: Far be it, my Lord. For never hath any thing polluted or unclean entered my mouth. ⁹ And again, a voice from heaven said to me: What God hath cleansed, make thou not unclean.

⁹ And again, a voice from heaven said to me: What God hath cleansed, make thou not unclean. ¹⁰ And this was done three times: and the whole was taken up to heaven. ¹¹ And at the same instant, three men, who were sent to me by Cornelius from Caesarea, came and stood at the gate of the court where I lodged.

¹¹ And at the same instant, three men, who were sent to me by Cornelius from Caesarea, came and stood at the gate of the court where I lodged. ¹² And the Spirit said to me: Go with them, without hesitation. And these six brethren went also with me, and we entered the man's house.

¹² And the Spirit said to me: Go with them, without hesitation. And these six brethren went also with me, and we entered the man's house. ¹³ And he related to us, how he had seen an angel in his house, who stood and said to him: Send to the city of Joppa, and bring Simon who is called Cephas;

¹³ And he related to us, how he had seen an angel in his house, who stood and said to him: Send to the city of Joppa, and bring Simon who is called Cephas; ¹⁴ and he will utter to thee discourses, by which thou wilt live, thou and all thy house.

¹⁴ and he will utter to thee discourses, by which thou wilt live, thou and all thy house. ¹⁵ And when I there commenced speaking, the Holy Spirit overshadowed them, as it did us from the beginning.

¹⁵ And when I there commenced speaking, the Holy Spirit overshadowed them, as it did us from the beginning.

¹⁵ And when I there commenced speaking, the Holy Spirit overshadowed them, as it did us from the beginning. ¹⁶ And I remembered the word of our Lord, when he said: John baptized with water, but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.

¹⁶ And I remembered the word of our Lord, when he said: John baptized with water, but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit. ¹⁷ If then God equally gave the gift to the Gentiles that believed in our Lord Jesus Messiah, as he did to us: who was I, that I could forbid God?

¹⁷ If then God equally gave the gift to the Gentiles that believed in our Lord Jesus Messiah, as he did to us: who was I, that I could forbid God? ¹⁸ And when they heard these words, they desisted; and they glorified God and said: Now to the Gentiles also doth God give repentance unto life. ¹⁹ And they who were dispersed, by the oppression which occurred on account of Stephen, travelled as far as Phenicia, and even to the country of Cyprus, and to Antioch, speaking the word to none except to Jews only.

⁷ an angel of the Lord stood over him, and a light shone in all the building; and he pricked his side, and awaked him, and said to him: Arise, instantly. And the chains fell from his hands. ⁸ And the angel said to him: Gird thy loins, and put on thy sandals. And he did so. And again he said to him: Wrap thyself in thy cloak, and come after me. ⁹ And he went out and followed him, not knowing that what had been done by the angel was a reality; for he supposed, that he saw a vision. ¹⁰ And when the first ward was passed and the second, they came to the iron gate, and it opened to them of its own accord. And when they had gone out, and had passed one street, the angel departed from him. ¹¹ Then Simon recognized where he was; and he said: Now I know, in reality, that God hath sent his angel, and delivered me from the hand of Herod the king, and from what the Jews were devising against me.

² And while they were fasting and making supplication to God, the Holy Spirit said to them: Separate to me Saul and Barnabas, for the work to which I have called them.

⁴ And they, being sent forth by the Holy Spirit, went down to Seleucia, and from there they went by sea as far as Cyprus.

¹⁶ And Paul arose, and waved his hand, and said: Men, sons of Israel, and ye that fear God, hear ye.

²⁴ And, before his advent, he sent John to proclaim the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel. ²⁵ And while John was fulfilling his ministry, he said: Who, suppose ye, that I am? I am not he. But lo, he cometh after me; of whom I am not worthy to untie his shoe-strings. ²⁶ Men, brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and all who, with you, fear God, to you is this word of life sent. ²⁷ For, those inhabitants of Jerusalem and their chiefs, did not apprehend it; neither did they apprehend also the writings of the prophets, which are read every sabbath; but they condemned him, and fulfilled all the things written. ²⁸ And while they found no ground for his death, they desired of Pilate that they might kill him. ²⁹ And when they had fulfilled all that was written concerning him, they took him down from the cross, and laid him in a sepulchre. ³⁰ But God raised him from the dead. ³¹ And he was seen many days, by them who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem; and they are now his witnesses to the people.

³¹ And he was seen many days, by them who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem; and they are now his witnesses to the people. ³² And lo, we also announce to you, that the promise, which was made to our fathers,

³⁸ Know therefore, brethren, that through this man remission of sins is proclaimed to you. ³⁹ And every one that believeth in this man, is made just from all things, from which ye could not be made just by the law of Moses.

⁴⁶ And Paul and Barnabas said openly: To you first, ought the word of God to be spoken; but because ye repel it from you, and decide, against yourselves, that ye are not worthy of life eternal, lo, we turn ourselves to the Gentiles.

⁵⁰ But the Jews stirred up the chiefs of the city, and the opulent women who with them feared God, and set up a persecution against Paul and against Barnabas, and expelled them from their borders.

¹¹ And the assembly of people, when they saw what Paul had done, raised their voice, and said, in the language of the country: The gods have assumed the likeness of men, and have come down to us. ¹² And they named Barnabas the Lord of the Gods; and Paul Hermes, because he commenced the speaking. ¹³ And the priest of the Lord of the Gods, who was without the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gate of the court where they lodged, and was disposed to offer sacrifices to them. ¹⁴ But Barnabas and Paul, when they heard it, rent their garments, and sprang and went among the throng, ¹⁵ and called out, and said: Men, what do ye? We also are frail mortals like yourselves, who preach to you, that ye should turn from these useless things, unto the living God, who made heaven and earth and seas, and whatever is in them.

²⁷ And when they had collected together the whole church, they narrated all that God had wrought with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles.

⁷ And when there had been much discussion, Simon arose and said to them: Men, brethren, ye know that, from the earlier days, God chose that from my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel, and should believe.

⁷ And when there had been much discussion, Simon arose and said to them: Men, brethren, ye know that, from the earlier days, God chose that from my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel, and should believe. ⁸ And God, who knoweth what is in hearts, bore testimony concerning them, and gave the Holy Spirit to them, even as to us.

⁸ And God, who knoweth what is in hearts, bore testimony concerning them, and gave the Holy Spirit to them, even as to us. ⁹ And he made no distinction between them and us; because he purified their hearts by faith.

⁹ And he made no distinction between them and us; because he purified their hearts by faith.

²⁰ But let word be sent to them, that they keep aloof from the defilement of a sacrifice to idols, and from whoredom, and from what is strangled, and from blood.

²⁹ that ye keep aloof from a sacrifice to idols, and from blood, and from what is strangled, and from whoredom. And if ye keep yourselves from these, ye will do well. Be ye steadfast in the Lord.

⁶ And they travelled through the regions of Phrygia and Galatia; and the Holy Spirit forbid them to speak the word of God in Asia. ⁷ And when they came into the region of Mysia, they were disposed to go from there into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus permitted them not.

⁹ And in a vision of the night, there appeared unto Paul, a man of Macedonia, who stood and besought him, saying: Come to Macedonia and help us.

¹⁴ And a certain woman who feared God, a seller of purple, whose name was Lydia, from the city of Thyatira, was there. Her heart our Lord opened, and she hearkened to what Paul spake. ¹⁵ And she was baptized, and her household. And she entreated us, saying: If ye are really persuaded that I have believed in our Lord, come and take lodging in my house. And she urged us much.

¹⁵ And she was baptized, and her household. And she entreated us, saying: If ye are really persuaded that I have believed in our Lord, come and take lodging in my house. And she urged us much.

¹¹ For the Jews there were more liberal than the Jews of Thessalonica; and they gladly heard the word from them daily, and searched from the scriptures whether these things were so. ¹² And many of them believed; and so likewise of the Greeks, many men, and women of note.

³¹ Because he hath appointed a day, in which he will judge all the earth, with righteousness, by the man whom he hath designated: and he turneth every man to faith in him, in that he raised him from the dead.

⁸ And Crispus, the president of the synagogue, believed on our Lord, he and all the members of his house. And many Corinthians gave ear, and believed in God and were baptized.

⁵ And when they heard these things, they were baptized in the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah. ⁶ And Paul laid his hand on them; and the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke in various tongues, and prophesied.

⁴ And, as we found disciples there, we tarried with them seven days: and they, by the Spirit, told Paul not to go to Jerusalem.

⁸ And the next day, we departed and came to Cesarea; and we went in and put up in the house of Philip the Evangelist, who was one of the seven.

¹⁰ And I said: My Lord, what must I do? And our Lord said to me: Arise, go to Damascus; and there will be told thee, all that it is commanded thee to do.

¹² And a certain man, Ananias, who was upright according to the law, as all the Jews there testified concerning him, came to me.

¹⁷ And I returned and came hither to Jerusalem. And I prayed in the temple.

²¹ But he said to me: Depart; for I send thee afar, to preach to the Gentiles. ²² And when they had heard Paul as far as this sentence, they raised their voice, and cried out: Away with such a man from the earth! for he ought not to live!

²⁵ And as they were stretching him with ropes, Paul said to the centurion who stood over him: Is it lawful for you to scourge a man, who is a Roman, and not yet found guilty?

²³ And he called two centurions, and said to them: Go and prepare two hundred Romans to go to Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and shooters with the right hand two hundred; and let them set out at the third hour of the night.

³³ And they brought him to Caesarea: and they delivered the letter to the governor, and set Paul before him.

¹⁵ And I have a hope in God, which they also themselves expect, that there is to be a resurrection of the dead, both of the righteous and the wicked.

¹ And when Festus arrived at Caesarea, he, after three days, went up to Jerusalem.

¹³ And when some days had passed, Agrippa the king, and Bernice, came down to Caesarea to salute Festus.

²⁰ And because I was not well established in regard to these questions, I said to Paul: Dost thou ask to go to Jerusalem, and there be judged concerning these matters?

¹⁸ to open their eyes; that they may turn from darkness to the light, and from the dominion of Satan unto God; and may receive remission of sins, and a portion with the saints, by faith in me. ¹⁹ Wherefore, king Agrippa, I did not contumaciously withstand the heavenly vision:

²² But unto this day God hath helped me; and lo, I stand and bear testimony, to the small and to the great; yet saying nothing aside from Moses and the prophets, but the very things which they declared were to take place:

²⁶ And king Agrippa is also well acquainted with these things; and I therefore speak confidently before him, because I suppose not one of these things hath escaped his knowledge; for they were not done in secret.

¹ And Festus commanded, respecting him, that he should be sent to Italy, unto Caesar. And he delivered Paul, and other prisoners with him, to a certain man, a centurion of the Augustan cohort, whose name was Julius.

²³ For there appeared to me this night, the angel of that God whose I am, and whom I serve;

³¹ And when Paul saw it, he said to the centurion and to the soldiers: Unless these remain in the ship, ye cannot be saved.

⁴³ But the centurion kept them from it, because he was desirous to preserve Paul. And those who were able to swim, he commanded to swim off first, and pass to the land.

²² But we are desirous to hear from thee what thou thinkest; for this doctrine, we know, is not received by any one.

²⁸ Therefore, be this known to you, that to the Gentiles is this redemption of God sent: and, moreover, they will hear it.

⁴ and was made known as the Son of God, by power, and by the Holy Spirit,) who arose from the dead, Jesus Messiah, our Lord,

¹⁶ For I am not ashamed of the gospel; for it is the power of God unto life, to all who believe in it; whether first they are of the Jews, or whether they are of the Gentiles. ¹⁷ For in it is revealed the righteousness of God, from faith to faith; as it is written, The righteous by faith, shall live.

¹¹ For there is no respect of persons with God:

¹³ (for not the hearers of the law, are righteous before God; but the doers of the law are justified;

²⁵ For circumcision profiteth, indeed, if thou fulfillest the law: but if thou departest from the law, thy circumcision becometh uncircumcision. ²⁶ And if uncircumcision should keep the precepts of the law, would not that uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision? ²⁷ And the uncircumcision, which from its nature fulfilleth the law, will judge thee; who, with the scripture, and with circumcision, transgressest against the law. ²⁸ For he is not a Jew, who is so in what is external: nor is that circumcision, which is visible in the flesh. ²⁹ But he is a Jew, who is so in what is hidden: and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter, whose praise is not from men, but from God.

²² even the righteousness of God, which is by faith in Jesus Messiah, for every one, and on every one, that believeth in him: for there is no distinction;

²⁹ For, is he the God of the Jews only, and not of the Gentiles? Nay: of the Gentiles also.

²⁹ For, is he the God of the Jews only, and not of the Gentiles? Nay: of the Gentiles also. ³⁰ Because there is, one God, who justifieth the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision by the same faith.

³⁰ Because there is, one God, who justifieth the circumcision by faith, and the uncircumcision by the same faith. ³¹ Do, we then nullify the law by faith? Far be it. On the contrary, we establish the law.

¹¹ For he received circumcision, as the sign and the seal of the righteousness of his faith while in uncircumcision: that he might become the father of all them of the uncircumcision who believe; and that it might be reckoned to them also for righteousness:

²⁴ but for our sakes also; because it is to be accounted so to us, who believe in him that raised our Lord Jesus Messiah from the dead; ²⁵ who was delivered up, on account of our sins; and arose, that he might justify us.

¹ Therefore, because we are justified by faith, we shall have peace with God, through our Lord Jesus Messiah.

⁴ For we are buried with him in baptism unto death; that as Jesus Messiah arose from the dead into the glory of his Father, so also we, to walk in a new life. ⁵ For if we have been planted together with him into the likeness of his death, so shall we be also into his resurrection. ⁶ For we know, that our old man is crucified with him; that the body of sin might be abolished, and we be no more servants to sin: ⁷ for he that is dead to it, is emancipated from sin. ⁸ If then we are dead with Messiah, let us believe that we shall live with the same Messiah. ⁹ For we know that Messiah rose from the dead, and no more dieth; death hath no dominion over him. ¹⁰ For in dying, he died for sin, once; and in living, he liveth unto God. ¹¹ So also do ye account yourselves as being dead to sin, and alive to God, through our Lord Jesus Messiah.

²³ For the wages of sin is death; but the free gift of God is life eternal, through our Lord Jesus Messiah.

¹ There is therefore no condemnation, to them who, in Jesus Messiah, walk not after the flesh.

¹¹ And if the Spirit of him, who raised our Lord Jesus Messiah from the dead, dwelleth in you; he who raised our Lord Jesus Messiah from the dead, will also vivify your dead bodies, because of his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

³⁴ Who is it that condemneth? Messiah died, and arose, and is on the right hand of God, and maketh intercession for us.

⁴ who are sons of Israel, to whom belonged the adoption of sons, and the glory, and the covenants, and the law, and the ministration, and the promises, and the fathers;

¹¹ For the scripture saith: Every one that believeth in him, shall not be ashamed.

¹¹ For the scripture saith: Every one that believeth in him, shall not be ashamed. ¹² And in this, it discriminateth neither Jews nor Gentiles. For there is one Lord over them all, who is rich, towards every one that calleth on him.

¹² And in this, it discriminateth neither Jews nor Gentiles. For there is one Lord over them all, who is rich, towards every one that calleth on him. ¹³ For every one that shall call on the name of the Lord, will have life. ¹⁴ How then shall they call on him, in whom they have not believed? Or, how shall they believe in him, of whom they have not heard? Or, how shall they hear, without a preacher? ¹⁵ Or, how shall they preach, if they are not sent forth? As it is written: How beautiful are the feet of the heralds of peace, and of the heralds of good things? ¹⁶ But all of them have not obeyed the proclamation of the gospel. (For, Isaiah said: My Lord, who hath believed our proclamation?) ¹⁷ Therefore, faith is from the hearing of the ear; and the hearing of the ear, is from the word of God.

¹⁷ Therefore, faith is from the hearing of the ear; and the hearing of the ear, is from the word of God. ¹⁸ But I say: Have they not heard? And, lo, their proclamation hath gone out into all the earth; and their words to the ends of the world.

⁹ Moreover, for this cause Messiah died, and revived, and arose; that he might be Lord of the dead and of the living.

⁹ Moreover, for this cause Messiah died, and revived, and arose; that he might be Lord of the dead and of the living. ¹⁰ But thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or, why dost thou despise thy brother? For we must all stand before the judgment seat of Messiah,

¹⁴ I know indeed, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing which is unclean in itself; but to him who thinketh any thing to be unclean, to him only it is defiled.

²⁰ And let us not, on account of food, destroy the work of God. For every thing is, indeed, pure; yet it is evil, to the man who eateth with stumbling.

⁹ and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercies upon them, as it is written: I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and to thy name will I sing psalms. ¹⁰ And again he said: Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people. ¹¹ And again he said: Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye nations. ¹² And again Isaiah said: There will be a root of Jesse; and he that shall arise, will be a prince for the Gentiles; and in him will the Gentiles hope.

²⁶ For they of Macedonia and Achaia, have been willing to make up a contribution for the needy saints who are at Jerusalem. ²⁷ They were willing, because they were also debtors to them: for if the Gentiles have been participators with them in the Spirit, they are debtors to serve them also in things of the flesh.

²⁵ Now unto God, who is able to establish you,- (according to my gospel, which is proclaimed concerning Jesus Messiah; and according to the revelation of the mystery, which was hidden from the times that are past, ²⁶ but is at this time revealed, by means of the scriptures of the prophets; and by the command of the eternal God, is made known to all the Gentiles, for the obedience of faith;)

¹³ Now was Messiah divided? Or was Paul crucified for you? Or were ye baptized in the name of Paul? ¹⁴ I thank my God that I baptized none of you, except Crispus and Gaius; ¹⁵ lest any one should say, that I baptized in my own name. ¹⁶ I moreover baptized the household of Stephanas: but further, I know not that I baptized any other. ¹⁷ For Messiah did not send me to baptize, but to preach; not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Messiah should be inefficient.

¹⁸ Let no one deceive himself. Whoever among you thinketh that he is wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.

⁹ Or do ye not know, that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not mistake; neither whoremongers, nor idol-worshippers, nor adulterers, nor debauchers, nor liers with males, ¹⁰ nor the avaricious, nor thieves, nor drunkards, nor railers, nor extortioners, will inherit the kingdom of God. ¹¹ And these things have been in some of you: but ye are washed, and are sanctified, and made righteous, in the name of our Lord Jesus the Messiah, and by the Spirit of our God.

²⁵ Whatever is sold in the flesh-market, eat ye, without an inquiry on account of conscience:

¹¹ But all these, worketh that one Spirit; and he distributeth to every one as he pleaseth.

¹³ For all of us, likewise, by one Spirit, have been baptized into one body, whether Jews or Gentiles, whether slaves or free; and all of us have drinked in one Spirit.

²⁰ My brethren, be ye not children in your thoughts; but to evil things be ye infants; and in your thoughts be men. ²¹ In the law it is written, With a foreign speech, and in another tongue, will I speak with this people; and even so also they will not hearken to me, saith the Lord. ²² Wherefore, tongues are established for a sign, not to the believers, but to them that believe not. But prophesyings are not for those who believe not, but for them that believe. ²³ If therefore the whole church assemble, and they all speak with tongues, and there come in unlearned persons, or such as believe not, will they not say: These people are crazy? ²⁴ But if ye should be all prophesying, and one unlearned or an unbeliever should come among you, he is explored by you all, and rebuked by you all; ²⁵ and the secrets of his heart are laid open to him: and so he will fall upon his face, and will worship God, and say: Verily, God is in you.

³ For I delivered to you from the first, as I had received it; that the Messiah died on account of our sins, as it is written: ⁴ and that he was buried and arose on the third day, as it is written:

¹² And if the Messiah is proclaimed, as rising from the dead; how is it that there are some among you, who say, There is no reviviscence of the dead? ¹³ And if there is no reviviscence of the dead, the Messiah also hath not risen. ¹⁴ And if the Messiah hath not risen, our preaching is vain, and your faith also vain. ¹⁵ And we too are found false witnesses of God; for we have testified concerning God, that he raised up the Messiah, when he did not raise him up. ¹⁶ For, if the dead will not arise, the Messiah also hath not risen. ¹⁷ And if the Messiah rose not, your faith is inane; and ye are yet in your sins: ¹⁸ and also, doubtless, they who have fallen asleep in the Messiah, have perished. ¹⁹ And if, in this life only, we have hope in the Messiah, we are the most miserable of all men. ²⁰ But now the Messiah hath risen from the dead, and become the first-fruits of them that slept.

²⁷ For he hath subjected all under his feet. But when he said, that every thing is subjected to him, it is manifest that he is excepted, who subjected all to him.

⁴⁷ The first man was of dust from the earth; the second man was the Lord from heaven.

⁹ because a great door is opened to me, which is full of occupations; and the opposers are numerous.

¹² Moreover, when I came to Troas in announcing the Messiah, and a door was opened to me by the Lord,

¹⁴ knowing that he, who resuscitated our Lord Jesus, will also resuscitate us by Jesus, and will receive us, with you, to himself.

¹⁰ For we are all to stand before the judgment-seat of the Messiah, that each may receive retribution in the body, for what he hath done in it, whether of good, or whether of evil.

¹⁸ and all things are made new, by God; who hath reconciled us to himself by the Messiah, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation.

¹⁸ and all things are made new, by God; who hath reconciled us to himself by the Messiah, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation. ¹⁹ For God was in the Messiah, who hath reconciled the world with his majesty, and did not reckon to them their sins; and who hath placed in us the word of reconciliation. ²⁰ We are therefore ambassadors for the Messiah, and it is as if God was beseeching you by us. In behalf of the Messiah, therefore, we beseech you, be ye reconciled to God. ²¹ For, on your account, he hath made him who knew no sin to be sin, that we might by him become the righteousness of God.

¹ Seeing, therefore, we have these promises, my beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of the flesh and of the spirit; and let us work righteousness, in the fear of God.

²¹ For we are attentive to things commendable, not only before God, but also before men.

⁸ For it is in the power of God, to make all good abound to you, so that ye may have, at all times, and in every thing, what is sufficient for you; and may abound in every good work. ⁹ As it is written, He hath dispersed and given to the poor; and his righteousness is established for ever. ¹⁰ Now he that giveth seed to the sower, and bread for food, may he give and multiply your seed, and increase the fruits of your righteousness: ¹¹ so that in every thing, ye may be enriched unto all liberality, to the completion of our thanksgiving to God. ¹² For the performance of this ministration, not only supplieth the want of the saints, but is also rich in many thanksgivings to God. ¹³ For on account of the test of this ministration, we glorify God, that ye do subject yourselves to the profession of the gospel of the Messiah, and that in your liberality, ye communicate with them and with all men: ¹⁴ and they put up prayer for you, with much love, because of the abundance of the grace of God that is upon you. ¹⁵ Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift.

² I knew a man in the Messiah fourteen years ago, (but whether in a body, or whether out of a body, I know not; God knoweth :) who was caught up to the third region of heaven. ³ And I knew this same man; (but whether in a body, or out of a body, I know not; God knoweth;) ⁴ and he was caught up to Paradise, and heard ineffable words, which it is not permitted a man to utter.

¹ This is the third time that I have prepare to come to you; that, by the mouth of two or three witnesses, every word may be established.

¹⁶ to reveal his Son by me, that I should proclaim him among the Gentiles; forthwith, I did not open it to flesh and blood;

⁶ And they who were esteemed prominent, (what they were, I care not; for God regardeth not the persons of men,)even these persons added nothing to me.

¹² For before certain ones came from James, he ate with the Gentiles: but when they came, he withdrew himself, and separated; because he was afraid of them of the circumcision.

¹² For before certain ones came from James, he ate with the Gentiles: but when they came, he withdrew himself, and separated; because he was afraid of them of the circumcision. ¹³ And the rest of the Jews also were with him in this thing; insomuch that even Barnabas was induced to regard persons.

¹³ And the rest of the Jews also were with him in this thing; insomuch that even Barnabas was induced to regard persons. ¹⁴ And when I saw, that they did not walk correctly, in the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas, before them all: If thou art a Jew, and livest in the Gentile way, and not in the Jewish, why dost thou compel the Gentiles to live in the Jewish way? ¹⁵ For if we, who are Jews by nature, and are not sinners of the Gentiles,

¹³ But the Messiah hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, and hath been a curse for us; (for it is written, Cursed is everyone that is hanged on a tree;)

¹³ But the Messiah hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, and hath been a curse for us; (for it is written, Cursed is everyone that is hanged on a tree;) ¹⁴ that the blessing of Abraham might be on the Gentiles, through Jesus the Messiah; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit by faith.

²² But the scripture hath inclosed all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus the Messiah might be given to them that believe.

²⁷ For they who have been baptized into the Messiah, have put on the Messiah. ²⁸ There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free-born, neither male nor female; for ye are all one in Jesus the Messiah.

¹⁴ and the trial in my flesh, ye did not despise nor nauseate: but ye received me as an angel of God, and as Jesus the Messiah.

⁶ that the glory of his grace might be glorified, which he poured upon us by his Beloved One; ⁷ by whom we have redemption, and the forgiveness of sins by his blood, according to the riches of his grace,

¹⁰ in the dispensation of the fullness of times; that all things might again be made new in the Messiah, things in heaven and things on earth.

²⁰ which he put forth in the Messiah, and raised him from the dead, and seated him at his right hand in heaven, ²¹ high above all principalities, and authorities, and powers, and lordships, and above every name that is named, not only in this world but also in that to come: ²² and he hath subjected all things under his feet; and hath given him who is high over all, to be the head of the church; ²³ which is his body, and the fullness of him who filleth all in all:

¹¹ Wherefore be mindful, that ye formerly were carnal Gentiles; and ye were called the uncircumcision, by that which is called the circumcision, and which is the work of the hands in the flesh.

¹³ But now, by Jesus the Messiah, ye who before were afar off, have been brought near by the blood of the Messiah. ¹⁴ For he is himself our peace, who hath made the two become one, and hath demolished the wall which stood in the midst, and the enmity, by his flesh; ¹⁵ and by his prescriptions he hath abolished the law of ordinances; that, in himself, he might make the two to be one new man; and he hath made peace, ¹⁶ and hath reconciled both with God, in one body, and hath slain the enmity by his cross. ¹⁷ And he came, and proclaimed peace to you afar off, and to those near: ¹⁸ because, by him there is access for us both, by one Spirit, unto the Father.

⁵ which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to his holy legates and to his prophets, by the Spirit; ⁶ that the Gentiles should be sharers. of his inheritance, and partakers of his body, and of the promise which is given in him by the gospel;

⁶ that the Gentiles should be sharers. of his inheritance, and partakers of his body, and of the promise which is given in him by the gospel;

⁶ that the Gentiles should be sharers. of his inheritance, and partakers of his body, and of the promise which is given in him by the gospel; ⁷ of which I have been a minister, according to the gift of the goodness of God, which was imparted to me by the operation of his power:

⁷ of which I have been a minister, according to the gift of the goodness of God, which was imparted to me by the operation of his power: ⁸ to me, who am the least of all the saints, hath this grace been given, that I should announce among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of the Messiah,

⁵ For, the Lord is one, and the faith one, and the baptism one; ⁶ and one God is the Father of all, and over all, and by all, and in us all. ⁷ And to each of us grace is given, according to the measure of the gift of the Messiah. ⁸ Wherefore it is said: He ascended on high, and carried captivity captive, and gave gifts to men. ⁹ Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also previously descended to the interior regions of the earth? ¹⁰ He who descended, is also the same that ascended up, high above all the heavens, that he might fulfill all things. ¹¹ And he gave some, legates; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers: ¹² for perfecting the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edification of the body of the Messiah;

²¹ And be submissive one to another, in the love of the Messiah.

⁹ Also ye masters, do ye so to your servants. Forgive them a fault; because ye know, that ye have a master in heaven; and there is no respect of persons with him.

¹⁸ And pray ye, with all prayers and supplications, in spirit, at all times: and in prayer be watchful, at all seasons, praying constantly, and interceding for all the saints: ¹⁹ and also for me; that language may be given me, in the opening of my mouth; so that I may boldly proclaim the mystery of the gospel, ²⁰ of which I am a messenger in chains; that I may utter it boldly, as I ought to utter it.

¹¹ and that every tongue should confess that Jesus the Messiah is the Lord, to the glory of God his Father.

³ For we are the real circumcision, who worship God in spirit, and glory in Jesus the Messiah, and place no reliance on the flesh.

⁶ Be anxious for nothing; but at all times, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, make known your requests before God.

¹⁸ I have now received all, and I abound, and am full: and I accepted all that ye sent to me by Epaphroditus, a sweet odor, and an acceptable sacrifice that pleaseth God.

⁶ which is announced to you, as also to all the world; and which groweth and yieldeth fruits, as it doth also among you from the day ye heard and knew the grace of God in reality:

¹⁴ by whom we have redemption and remission of sins: ¹⁵ who is the likeness of the invisible God, and the first-born of all creatures: ¹⁶ and by him was created every thing that is in heaven and on earth, all that is seen and all that is unseen, whether thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or sovereignties; every thing was through him, and was created by him: ¹⁷ and he was prior to all, and by him every thing exists. ¹⁸ And he is the head of the body the church; as he is the head and first-born from among the dead, that he might be the first in all things.

²⁰ and by him, to reconcile all things to himself; and through him, he hath pacified, with the blood of his cross, both those on earth and those in heaven.

²³ provided ye continue in your faith, your foundation being firm, and ye be not removed from the hope of the gospel; of which ye have heard, that it is proclaimed in all the creation beneath heaven; of which gospel I Paul am a minister. ²⁴ And I rejoice in the sufferings which are for your sakes; and, in my flesh, I fill up the deficiency in the afflictions of the Messiah, in behalf of his body, which is the church; ²⁵ of which I am a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me among you, that I should fulfill the word of God, ²⁶ namely, that mystery, which was hidden for ages and generations, but is now revealed to his saints; ²⁷ to whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which mystery is the Messiah; who in you is the hope of our glory;

¹³ And you, who were dead in your sins, and by the uncircumcision of your flesh, he hath vivified with him; and he hath forgiven us all our sins: ¹⁴ and, by his mandates, he blotted out the handwriting of our debts, which handwriting existed against us, and took it from the midst, and affixed it to his cross.

¹¹ where there is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision, neither Greek nor barbarian, neither bond nor free; but the Messiah is all, and in all.

²⁵ But the delinquent will receive a recompense, according to the delinquency; and there is no respect of persons.

² Persevere in prayer; and be watchful in it, and in giving thanks. ³ And pray also for us, that God would open to us a door of speech, for uttering the mystery of the Messiah, for the sake of which I am in bonds;

¹³ Therefore also we give thanks unceasingly to God, that the word of God which ye received from us, ye did not receive as the word of men, but as being truly the word of God, which worketh efficiently in you and in them that believe.

¹⁷ And pray without ceasing.

³ Let no one deceive you in any way; because that day will not come, unless there previously come a defection, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; ⁴ who is an opposer, and exalteth himself above all that is called God and Worshipful; so that he also sitteth in the temple of God, as a God, and displayeth himself, as if he were God.

⁸ I desire therefore, that men may pray in every place, while they lift up their hands with purity, without wrath, and without disputations.

⁷ And there ought to be good testimony of him from those without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of Satan.

¹ But the Spirit saith explicitly, that in the latter times, some will depart from the faith; and will go after deceptive spirits, and after the doctrine of demons.

³ and will forbid to marry; and will require abstinence from meats, which God hath created for use and for thankfulness, by them who believe and know the truth. ⁴ Because whatever is created by God is good; and there is nothing which should be rejected if it be received with thankfulness; ⁵ for it is sanctified by the word of God and by prayer.

² And let them who have believing masters, not treat them with disrespect, because they are their brethren; but let them be more obedient, because they are believers and beloved, in whose service they enjoy quietness. These things teach thou, and request of them.

¹ I charge thee, before God, and our Lord Jesus the Messiah, who is to judge the living and the dead, at the manifestation of his kingdom,

⁸ and henceforth there is preserved for me a crown of righteousness, with which my Lord, the righteous Judge, will recompense me in that day; and not me only, but them also who love his manifestation.

¹⁵ For to the pure, every thing is pure; but to them who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but their understanding is defiled, and their conscience. ¹⁶ henceforth, not as a servant, but more than a servant, a brother dear to me, and much more to thee, both in the flesh and in our Lord ?

² But in these latter days, he hath conversed with us, by his Son; whom he hath constituted heir of all things, and by whom he made the worlds;

⁴ And he is altogether superior to the angels, as he hath also inherited a name which excelleth theirs.

⁶ And again, when bringing the first begotten into the world, he said: Let all the angels of God worship him. ⁷ But of the angels he thus said: Who made his angels a wind, and his ministers a flaming fire. ⁸ But of the Son he said: Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; a righteous sceptre is the sceptre of thy kingdom. ⁹ Thou hast loved rectitude, and hated iniquity; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness more than thy associates.

⁹ Thou hast loved rectitude, and hated iniquity; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness more than thy associates. ¹⁰ And again, Thou hast from the beginning laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of thy hands: ¹¹ they will pass away, but thou endurest; and they all, like a robe, wax old; ¹² and like a cloak, thou wilt fold them up. They will be changed; but thou wilt be as thou art, and thy years will not be finished.

¹⁴ Are they not all spirits of ministration, who are sent to minister on account of them that are to inherit life?

¹⁴ For because the children participated in flesh and blood, he also, in like manner, took part in the same; that, by his death, he might bring to naught him who held the dominion of death, namely Satan; ¹⁵ and might release them, who, through fear of death, are all their lives subject to bondage.

¹⁰ For God is not unrighteous, to forget your works, and your charity which ye have shown in his name, in that ye have ministered and do minister to the saints.

² And to him Abraham imparted tithes of all that he had with him. Moreover his name is interpreted king of righteousness; and again he is called King of Salem, that is King of Peace. ³ Of whom neither his father nor his mother are written in the genealogies; nor the commencement of his days, nor the end of his life; but, after the likeness of the Son of God, his priesthood remaineth for ever.

⁹ and it was a symbol, for that time, during which oblation and sacrifices were offered that could not make perfect the conscience of him who offered them: ¹⁰ but they consisted only in food and drink, and in the ablutions of divers things; which were carnal ordinances, and were set up until the time of a reformation.

³⁸ Now the just by my faith, will live: but if he draw back, my soul will not have pleasure in him.

² And for it the ancients are well testified of.

⁴ By faith, Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than that of Cain; and on account of it, he is testified of that he was righteous, and God bore testimony to his offering; and in consequence thereof, though dead he yet speaketh. ⁵ By faith, Enoch was translated, and did not taste death; and he was not found, because God had translated him: for, before he translated him, there was testimony of him, that he pleased God. ⁶ But, without faith, a man cannot please God. For he that draweth near to God, must believe his existence, and that he will recompense those who seek him.

²³ and to the church of the first-born, who are enrolled in heaven and to God the judge of all; and to the spirits of the just, who are perfected;

² And forget not kindness to strangers; for thereby some have been privileged to entertain angels, unawares.

¹⁶ And forget not commiseration and communication with the poor; for with such sacrifices a man pleaseth God.

²⁰ May the God of peace, who brought up from the dead the great Shepherd of the flock, by the blood of the everlasting covenant, namely Jesus the Messiah, our Lord,

⁵ And if any of you lacketh wisdom, let him ask it of God, who giveth to all freely, and reproacheth not; and it will be given him.

¹⁹ And be ye, my beloved brethren, every one of you, swift to hear, and slow to speak; and slow to wrath:

²¹ Wherefore, remove far from you all impurity, and the abundance of wickedness; and, with meekness, receive the word that is implanted in our nature, which is able to vivify these your souls.

⁴ are ye not divided among yourselves, and become expositors of evil thoughts?

⁹ but if ye have respect of persons, ye commit sin; and ye are convicted by the law, as transgressors of the law.

¹¹ And they searched for the time which the Spirit of the Messiah dwelling in them did show and testify, when the sufferings of the Messiah were to occur, and his subsequent glory.

¹⁷ And if so be ye call on the Father, with whom is no respect of persons, and who judgeth every one according to his deeds, pass the time of your sojournment with fear;

²¹ who, by means of him, have believed in God, who raised him from the dead and conferred glory on him; that your faith and hope might be in God,

¹ Therefore, cease ye from all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisy, and envy, and backbiting. ² And be like infant children; and crave the word, as being the pure spiritual milk by which ye are nourished up to life;

²⁴ And he took away all our sins, and, in his body, lifted them to the cross; that we, when dead to sin, might live by his righteousness: for by his wounds, ye are healed.

¹⁵ but sanctify the Lord the Messiah, in your hearts. And be ye ready for a vindication, before every one who demandeth of you an account of the hope of your faith,

²² who is taken up to heaven, and is on the right hand of God, and angels, and authorities, and powers, are subject to him.

⁵ who must give account to God, who is to judge the living and the dead.

⁹ And be ye compassionate to strangers, without murmuring.

⁸ Be sober and guarded, because Satan your adversary, like a lion, roareth, and goeth about, and seeketh whom he may devour.

² that ye may be mindful of the words which were formerly spoken by the holy prophets, and of the injunction of our Lord and Redeemer by the hand of the legates:

²⁹ If ye know that he is righteous, ye also know, that whoever doeth righteousness, is from him.

⁸ And he that committeth sin, is of Satan; because Satan was a sinner from the beginning: and for this cause, the Son of God appeared, that he might destroy the works of Satan.

¹² Of Demetrius, there is good testimony from every one, and from the church, and from the truth itself: and we also bear him testimony, and ye know that our testimony is true.

⁵ and from Jesus the Messiah, the Witness, the Faithful, the First-born of the dead, and the Prince of the kings of the earth; who hath loved us, and released us from our sins by his blood;

⁷ Behold, he cometh with clouds; and all eyes shall see him, and also they who speared him; and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn on account of him. Yes: Amen.

¹⁰ I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day; and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, which said:

¹⁸ and who liveth and was dead; and behold, I am alive for ever and ever. Amen. And I have the keys of death and of the unseen world.

¹ After these things, I looked and lo, a door was open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard, was as of a trumpet talking with me. It said, Come up hither; and I will show thee the things that must occur hereafter. ² Instantly, I was in the Spirit: and lo, a throne was placed in heaven; and there was one seated on the throne. ³ And he who sat, was like the appearance of a jasper-stone, and of a sardine sard, and of a rainbow of the clouds, round about the throne, in form as the appearance of emeralds.

⁸ And when he took the book, the four Animals and the twenty and four Elders fell down before the Lamb, each of them having a harp, and cups of gold full of odors, which are the supplications of the saints.

³ And another angel came and stood by the altar; and he held a golden censer: and much incense was given him, so that he might offer, with the prayers of all the saints, upon the golden altar before the throne. ⁴ And the smoke of the incense of the prayers of the saints went up before God from the hand of the angel.

⁴ And the smoke of the incense of the prayers of the saints went up before God from the hand of the angel.

¹⁹ And the temple of God in heaven was opened; and the ark of his covenant was seen in his temple: and there were lightnings, and thunders, and voices, and an earthquake, and great hail.

⁸ And all that dwell on the earth, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world, will worship him.

¹⁴ And I looked, and lo, a white cloud; and upon the cloud sat one who was like the Son of man; and on his head was a crown of gold, and in his hand a sharp sickle. ¹⁵ And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice, to him that sat on the cloud. ¹⁶ And he thrust his sickle over the earth; and the earth was reaped. ¹⁷ And another angel came out of the temple that is in heaven, having also a sharp sickle.

²⁰ And the wine-press was trodden, up to the horses' bridles, for a thousand and six hundred furlongs.

⁴ Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? Because thou only art holy and just: Because all nations shall come and worship before thee, since thy righteousnesses have been revealed.

¹⁴ They will make war upon the Lamb; and the Lamb will vanquish them; because he is Lord of lords, and King of kings, and these with him are called and chosen and faithful.

¹⁰ And I fell at his feet, to worship him. And he said to me, See, thou do it not; I am thy fellow-servant, and of those thy brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship ye God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. ¹¹ And I saw heaven opened: and lo, a white horse; and he that sat on it, is called Faithful and True: and in righteousness he judgeth, and maketh war.

¹⁶ And he hath upon his vesture and upon his thigh the words written: King of kings, and Lord of lords.

¹¹ And I saw a great white throne, and Him who sitteth thereon; from whose presence the earth and heaven fled away, and this their place was not found. ¹² And I saw the dead, great and small standing before the throne; and the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged from the things written in the books, according to their deeds. ¹³ And the sea gave up the dead in it; and death and the grave gave up the dead in them. And they were judged, each one according to his deeds. ¹⁴ And death and the grave were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, namely, this lake of fire. ¹⁵ And if any one was not found enrolled in the book of life, he was cast into this lake of fire.

⁸ And more-over I am John, the hearer and the seer of these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed me these things. ⁹ And he said to me: See, thou do it not: I am thy fellow-servant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them that observe the words of this book. Worship God.

¹² Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to recompense every one according to his work.
