Acts 5:38
And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let alone: them for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:
Connections
ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν Πᾶσα φυτεία ἣν οὐκ ἐφύτευσεν ὁ πατήρ μου ὁ οὐράνιος ἐκριζωθήσεται
But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
מִי זֶה אָמַר וַתֶּהִי אֲדֹנָי לֹא צִוָּֽה׃
Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?
רֹעוּ עַמִּים וָחֹתּוּ וְהַֽאֲזִינוּ כֹּל מֶרְחַקֵּי-אָרֶץ הִתְאַזְּרוּ וָחֹתּוּ הִֽתְאַזְּרוּ וָחֹֽתּוּ׃
Associate yourselves, O ye people, and ye shall be broken in pieces; and give ear, all ye of far countries: gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces; gird yourselves, and ye shall be broken in pieces.
יְֽהוָה הֵפִיר עֲצַת-גּוֹיִם הֵנִיא מַחְשְׁבוֹת עַמִּֽים׃
The LORD bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
יַעַן כִּֽי-יָעַץ עָלֶיךָ אֲרָם רָעָה אֶפְרַיִם וּבֶן-רְמַלְיָהוּ לֵאמֹֽר׃
Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying,
אֵין חָכְמָה וְאֵין תְּבוּנָה וְאֵין עֵצָה לְנֶגֶד יְהוָֽה׃
There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.
מֵפֵר מַחְשְׁבוֹת עֲרוּמִים וְֽלֹא-תַעֲשֶׂינָה יְדֵיהֶם תּוּשִׁיָּֽה׃
He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise.
ἡ γὰρ σοφία τοῦ κόσμου τούτου μωρία παρὰ τῷ θεῷ ἐστιν γέγραπται γάρ Ὁ δρασσόμενος τοὺς σοφοὺς ἐν τῇ πανουργίᾳ αὐτῶν·
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
Βλέπετε γὰρ τὴν κλῆσιν ὑμῶν ἀδελφοί ὅτι οὐ πολλοὶ σοφοὶ κατὰ σάρκα οὐ πολλοὶ δυνατοί οὐ πολλοὶ εὐγενεῖς·
For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
וַיְהִי כַּֽאֲשֶׁר-שָׁמְעוּ אֽוֹיְבֵינוּ כִּי-נוֹדַֽע לָנוּ וַיָּפֶר הָֽאֱלֹהִים אֶת-עֲצָתָם (ונשוב) וַנָּשָׁב כֻּלָּנוּ אֶל-הַחוֹמָה אִישׁ אֶל-מְלַאכְתּֽוֹ׃
And it came to pass, when our enemies heard that it was known unto us, and God had brought their counsel to nought, that we returned all of us to the wall, every one unto his work.
לִשְׁבֹּר אַשּׁוּר בְּאַרְצִי וְעַל-הָרַי אֲבוּסֶנּוּ וְסָר מֵֽעֲלֵיהֶם עֻלּוֹ וְסֻבֳּלוֹ מֵעַל שִׁכְמוֹ יָסֽוּר׃
That I will break the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders.
ἐὰν ἀφῶμεν αὐτὸν οὕτως πάντες πιστεύσουσιν εἰς αὐτόν καὶ ἐλεύσονται οἱ Ῥωμαῖοι καὶ ἀροῦσιν ἡμῶν καὶ τὸν τόπον καὶ τὸ ἔθνος
If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation.
εἶπέν τε πρὸς αὐτούς Ἄνδρες Ἰσραηλῖται προσέχετε ἑαυτοῖς ἐπὶ τοῖς ἀνθρώποις τούτοις τί μέλλετε πράσσειν
And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men.
