Τούτου χάριν ἐγὼ Παῦλος ὁ δέσμιος τοῦ Χριστοῦ Ἰησοῦ ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν τῶν ἐθνῶν
For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles,
διὰ τὴν ἀγάπην μᾶλλον παρακαλῶ τοιοῦτος ὢν ὡς Παῦλος πρεσβύτης νυνὶ δὲ καὶ δέσμιος Ἰησοῦ· Χριστοῦ
Yet for sake love's I rather beseech thee, being such an one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.
Ἐγένετο δὲ μετὰ ἡμέρας τρεῖς συγκαλέσασθαι τὸν Παῦλον τοὺς ὄντας τῶν Ἰουδαίων πρώτους· συνελθόντων δὲ αὐτῶν ἔλεγεν πρὸς αὐτούς ἄνδρες ἀδελφοί Ἐγώ οὐδὲν ἐναντίον ποιήσας τῷ λαῷ ἢ τοῖς ἔθεσιν τοῖς πατρῴοις δέσμιος ἐξ Ἱεροσολύμων παρεδόθην εἰς τὰς χεῖρας τῶν Ῥωμαίων
And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called together: the chief of the Jews and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.
Παρακαλῶ οὖν ὑμᾶς ἐγὼ ὁ δέσμιος ἐν κυρίῳ ἀξίως περιπατῆσαι τῆς κλήσεως ἧς ἐκλήθητε
I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
כִּי אִם-זְכַרְתַּנִי אִתְּךָ כַּֽאֲשֶׁר יִיטַב לָךְ וְעָשִֽׂיתָ-נָּא עִמָּדִי חָסֶד וְהִזְכַּרְתַּנִי אֶל-פַּרְעֹה וְהֽוֹצֵאתַנִי מִן-הַבַּיִת הַזֶּֽה׃
But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:
καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτόν Σίμων ἔχω σοί τι εἰπεῖν ὁ δέ φησίν Διδάσκαλε εἰπέ
And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.
Κατὰ δὲ τὸ μεσονύκτιον Παῦλος καὶ Σιλᾶς προσευχόμενοι ὕμνουν τὸν θεόν ἐπηκροῶντο δὲ αὐτῶν οἱ δέσμιοι·
And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.
Ὡς δὲ ἐκρίθη τοῦ ἀποπλεῖν ἡμᾶς εἰς τὴν Ἰταλίαν παρεδίδουν τόν τε Παῦλον καί τινας ἑτέρους δεσμώτας ἑκατοντάρχῃ ὀνόματι Ἰουλίῳ σπείρης Σεβαστῆς
And when it was determined that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners unto one named Julius, a centurion of Augustus' band.
