ACT 7:58  And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid
down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose name was Saul.  

ACT 8:1  And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a
great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all
scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the
apostles.  

ACT 8:3  As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house,
and haling men and women committed them to prison.  

ACT 9:1  And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the
disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,  

ACT 9:2  And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he
found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound
unto Jerusalem.  

ACT 9:3  And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined
round about him a light from heaven:  

ACT 9:4  And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul,
Saul, why persecutest thou me?  

ACT 9:5  And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom
thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.  

ACT 9:6  And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to
do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be
told thee what thou must do.  

ACT 9:7  And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice,
but seeing no man.  

ACT 9:8  And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no
man: but they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.  

ACT 9:9  And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink.  

ACT 9:10  And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to
him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.  

ACT 9:11  And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is
called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of
Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth,  

ACT 9:12  And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting
his hand on him, that he might receive his sight.  

ACT 9:13  Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how
much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem:  

ACT 9:14  And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that
call on thy name.  

ACT 9:15  But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto
me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel: 


ACT 9:16  For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's
sake.  

ACT 9:17  And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his
hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee
in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight,
and be filled with the Holy Ghost.  

ACT 9:18  And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he
received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.  

ACT 9:19  And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul
certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.  

ACT 9:20  And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the
Son of God.  

ACT 9:21  But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that
destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that
intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests?  

ACT 9:22  But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which
dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ.  

ACT 9:23  And after that many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill
him:  

ACT 9:24  But their laying await was known of Saul. And they watched the gates
day and night to kill him.  

ACT 9:25  Then the disciples took him by night, and let him down by the wall in
a basket.  

ACT 9:26  And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to join himself to the
disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and believed not that he was a
disciple.  

ACT 9:27  But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared
unto them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him,
and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.  

ACT 9:28  And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem.  

ACT 9:29  And he spake boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed
against the Grecians: but they went about to slay him.  

ACT 9:30  Which when the brethren knew, they brought him down to Caesarea, and
sent him forth to Tarsus.  

ACT 11:25  Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul:  

ACT 11:26  And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came
to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught
much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.  

ACT 11:27  And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem unto Antioch.  

ACT 11:28  And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by the
Spirit that there should be great dearth throughout all the world: which came to
pass in the days of Claudius Caesar.  

ACT 11:29  Then the disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to
send relief unto the brethren which dwelt in Judaea:  

ACT 11:30  Which also they did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of
Barnabas and Saul.  

ACT 12:25  And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had
fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.  

ACT 13:1  Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and
teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene,
and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.  

ACT 13:2  As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said,
Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.  

ACT 13:3  And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them,
they sent them away.  

ACT 13:4  So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia;
and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.  

ACT 13:5  And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the
synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to their minister.  

ACT 13:6  And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a
certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus:  

ACT 13:7  Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent
man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.  

ACT 13:8  But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation)
withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.  

ACT 13:9  Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set
his eyes on him.  

ACT 13:10  And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the
devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right
ways of the Lord?  

ACT 13:11  And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be
blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist
and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.  

ACT 13:12  Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being
astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.  

ACT 13:13  Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga
in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.  

ACT 13:14  But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia,
and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.  

ACT 13:15  And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the
synagogue sent unto them, saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of
exhortation for the people, say on.  

ACT 13:16  Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel,
and ye that fear God, give audience.  

ACT 13:42  And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles
besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.  

ACT 13:50  But the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the
chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and
expelled them out of their coasts.  

ACT 13:51  But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came unto
Iconium.  

ACT 14:1  And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the
synagogue of the Jews, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the Jews and
also of the Greeks believed.  

ACT 14:2  But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds
evil affected against the brethren.  

ACT 14:3  Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave
testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done
by their hands.  

ACT 14:4  But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the
Jews, and part with the apostles.  

ACT 14:5  And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of
the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them,  

ACT 14:6  They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of
Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about:  

ACT 14:8  And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a
cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked:  

ACT 14:9  The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and
perceiving that he had faith to be healed,  

ACT 14:10  Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and
walked.  

ACT 14:11  And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their
voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the
likeness of men.  

ACT 14:12  And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he
was the chief speaker.  

ACT 14:13  Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen
and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.  

ACT 14:14  Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their
clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,  

ACT 14:15  And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like
passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities
unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things
that are therein:  

ACT 14:16  Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.  

ACT 14:17  Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did
good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts
with food and gladness.  

ACT 14:18  And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they
had not done sacrifice unto them.  

ACT 14:19  And there came thither certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who
persuaded the people, and having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city,
supposing he had been dead.  

ACT 14:20  Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came
into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.  

ACT 14:21  And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught
many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,  

ACT 14:22  Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue
in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom
of God.  

ACT 14:23  And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had
prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.  

ACT 14:24  And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia. 


ACT 14:25  And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into
Attalia:  

ACT 14:26  And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended
to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.  

ACT 14:27  And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they
rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of
faith unto the Gentiles.  

ACT 14:28  And there they abode long time with the disciples.  

ACT 15:1  And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and
said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.  

ACT 15:2  When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and
disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other
of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this
question.  

ACT 15:4  And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the
church, and of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God
had done with them.  

ACT 15:12  Then all the multitude kept silence, and gave audience to Barnabas
and Paul, declaring what miracles and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles
by them.  

ACT 15:22  Then pleased it the apostles and elders with the whole church, to
send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely,
Judas surnamed Barsabas and Silas, chief men among the brethren:  

ACT 15:25  It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send
chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,  

ACT 15:36  And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and
visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord,
and see how they do.  

ACT 15:37  And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was
Mark.  

ACT 15:38  But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from
them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.  

ACT 15:39  And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed
asunder one from the other: and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed unto Cyprus;  

ACT 15:40  And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren
unto the grace of God.  

ACT 15:41  And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.  

ACT 16:1  Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was
there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and
believed; but his father was a Greek:  

ACT 16:2  Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and
Iconium.  

ACT 16:3  Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him
because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his
father was a Greek.  

ACT 16:4  And as they went through the cities, they delivered them the decrees
for to keep, that were ordained of the apostles and elders which were at
Jerusalem.  

ACT 16:5  And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in
number daily.  

ACT 16:6  Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia,
and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia,  

ACT 16:7  After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but
the Spirit suffered them not.  

ACT 16:8  And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas.  

ACT 16:9  And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of
Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.  

ACT 16:10  And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go
into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach
the gospel unto them.  

ACT 16:11  Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight course to
Samothracia, and the next day to Neapolis;  

ACT 16:12  And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of
Macedonia, and a colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days.  

ACT 16:13  And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where
prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which
resorted thither.  

ACT 16:14  And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of
Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened, that she
attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul.  

ACT 16:15  And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us,
saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and
abide there. And she constrained us.  

ACT 16:16  And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed
with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by
soothsaying:  

ACT 16:17  The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the
servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.  

ACT 16:18  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.  

ACT 16:19  And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they
caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers,  

ACT 16:20  And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews,
do exceedingly trouble our city,  

ACT 16:21  And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to
observe, being Romans.  

ACT 16:22  And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates
rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat them.  

ACT 16:23  And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into
prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:  

ACT 16:24  Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner
prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.  

ACT 16:25  And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and
the prisoners heard them.  

ACT 16:26  And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of
the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every
one's bands were loosed.  

ACT 16:27  And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the
prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself,
supposing that the prisoners had been fled.  

ACT 16:28  But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we
are all here.  

ACT 16:29  Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and
fell down before Paul and Silas,  

ACT 16:30  And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?  

ACT 16:31  And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be
saved, and thy house.  

ACT 16:32  And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in
his house.  

ACT 16:33  And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their
stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.  

ACT 16:34  And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them,
and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.  

ACT 16:35  And when it was day, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let
those men go.  

ACT 16:36  And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The
magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore depart, and go in peace.  

ACT 16:37  But 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.  

ACT 16:38  And the serjeants told these words unto the magistrates: and they
feared, when they heard that they were Romans.  

ACT 16:39  And they came and besought them, and brought them out, and desired
them to depart out of the city.  

ACT 16:40  And they went out of the prison, and entered into the house of Lydia:
and when they had seen the brethren, they comforted them, and departed.  

ACT 17:1  Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came
to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews:  

ACT 17:2  And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days
reasoned with them out of the scriptures,  

ACT 17:3  Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen
again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ.  

ACT 17:4  And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas; and of
the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few.  

ACT 17:5  But the Jews which believed not, moved with envy, took unto them
certain lewd fellows of the baser sort, and gathered a company, and set all the
city on an uproar, and assaulted the house of Jason, and sought to bring them
out to the people.  

ACT 17:6  And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren
unto the rulers of the city, crying, These that have turned the world upside
down are come hither also;  

ACT 17:7  Whom Jason hath received: and these all do contrary to the decrees of
Caesar, saying that there is another king, one Jesus.  

ACT 17:8  And they troubled the people and the rulers of the city, when they
heard these things.  

ACT 17:9  And when they had taken security of Jason, and of the other, they let
them go.  

ACT 17:10  And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto
Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.  

ACT 17:11  These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they
received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily,
whether those things were so.  

ACT 17:12  Therefore many of them believed; also of honourable women which were
Greeks, and of men, not a few.  

ACT 17:13  But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God
was preached of Paul at Berea, they came thither also, and stirred up the
people.  

ACT 17:14  And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul to go as it were to
the sea: but Silas and Timotheus abode there still.  

ACT 17:15  And they that conducted Paul brought him unto Athens: and receiving a
commandment unto Silas and Timotheus for to come to him with all speed, they
departed.  

ACT 17:16  Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in
him, when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry.  

ACT 17:17  Therefore disputed he in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the
devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him.  

ACT 17:18  Then certain philosophers of the 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.  

ACT 17:19  And they took him, and brought him unto Areopagus, saying, May we
know what this new doctrine, whereof thou speakest, is?  

ACT 17:20  For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears: we would know
therefore what these things mean.  

ACT 17:21  (For all the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their
time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.)  

ACT 17:22  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.  

ACT 17:32  And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and
others said, We will hear thee again of this matter.  

ACT 17:33  So Paul departed from among them.  

ACT 17:34  Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed: among the which was
Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.  

ACT 18:1  After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;  

ACT 18:2  And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from
Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to
depart from Rome:) and came unto them.  

ACT 18:3  And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought:
for by their occupation they were tentmakers.  

ACT 18:4  And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews
and the Greeks.  

ACT 18:5  And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was
pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was Christ.  

ACT 18:6  And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his
raiment, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean; from
henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.  

ACT 18:7  And he departed thence, and entered into a certain man's house, named
Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the synagogue.  

ACT 18:9  Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid,
but speak, and hold not thy peace:  

ACT 18:10  For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I
have much people in this city.  

ACT 18:11  And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of
God among them.  

ACT 18:12  And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection
with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,  

ACT 18:13  Saying, This fellow persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the
law.  

ACT 18:14  And when 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:  

ACT 18:15  But if it be a question of words and names, and of your law, look ye
to it; for I will be no judge of such matters.  

ACT 18:16  And he drave them from the judgment seat.  

ACT 18:18  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.  

ACT 18:19  And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered
into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.  

ACT 18:20  When they desired him to tarry longer time with them, he consented
not;  

ACT 18:21  But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast
that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he
sailed from Ephesus.  

ACT 18:22  And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted the
church, he went down to Antioch.  

ACT 18:23  And after he had spent some time there, he departed, and went over
all the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the
disciples.  

ACT 19:1  And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having
passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples, 


ACT 19:2  He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed?
And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy
Ghost.  

ACT 19:3  And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said,
Unto John's baptism.  

ACT 19:4  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.  

ACT 19:5  When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord
Jesus.  

ACT 19:6  And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on
them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.  

ACT 19:8  And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of
three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God. 


ACT 19:9  But when divers were 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.  

ACT 19:10  And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which
dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.  

ACT 19:11  And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:  

ACT 19:12  So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or
aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of
them.  

ACT 19:13  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.  

ACT 19:14  And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the
priests, which did so.  

ACT 19:15  And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know;
but who are ye?  

ACT 19:16  And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame
them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and
wounded.  

ACT 19:17  And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at
Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was
magnified.  

ACT 19:18  And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds.  

ACT 19:19  Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books
together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them,
and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.  

ACT 19:20  So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.  

ACT 19:21  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.  

ACT 19:22  So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him,
Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.  

ACT 19:23  And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.  

ACT 19:24  For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver
shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen;  

ACT 19:25  Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and
said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth.  

ACT 19:26  Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost
throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people,
saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands:  

ACT 19:27  So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but
also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her
magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.  

ACT 19:28  And when they heard these sayings, they were full of wrath, and cried
out, saying, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.  

ACT 19:29  And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius
and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions in travel, they rushed with
one accord into the theatre.  

ACT 19:30  And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples
suffered him not.  

ACT 19:31  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.  

ACT 19:34  But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the
space of two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians.  

ACT 20:1  And after the uproar was ceased, Paul called unto him the disciples,
and embraced them, and departed for to go into Macedonia.  

ACT 20:2  And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much
exhortation, he came into Greece,  

ACT 20:3  And there abode three months. And when the Jews laid wait for him, as
he was about to sail into Syria, he purposed to return through Macedonia.  

ACT 20:4  And there accompanied him into Asia Sopater of Berea; and of the
Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timotheus; and
of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.  

ACT 20:5  These going before tarried for us at Troas.  

ACT 20:6  And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread,
and came unto them to Troas in five days; where we abode seven days.  

ACT 20:7  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.  

ACT 20:8  And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they were
gathered together.  

ACT 20:9  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.  

ACT 20:10  And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Trouble
not yourselves; for his life is in him.  

ACT 20:11  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.  

ACT 20:12  And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little
comforted.  

ACT 20:13  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.  

ACT 20:14  And when he met with us at Assos, we took him in, and came to
Mitylene.  

ACT 20:15  And we sailed thence, and came the next day over against Chios; and
the next day we arrived at Samos, and tarried at Trogyllium; and the next day we
came to Miletus.  

ACT 20:16  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.  

ACT 20:17  And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the
church.  

ACT 20:18  And when they were come to him, he said unto them, Ye know, from the
first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all
seasons,  

ACT 20:22  And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing
the things that shall befall me there:  

ACT 20:23  Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds
and afflictions abide me.  

ACT 20:24  But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto
myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I
have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.  

ACT 20:33  I have coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel.  

ACT 20:34  Yea, ye yourselves know, that these hands have ministered unto my
necessities, and to them that were with me.  

ACT 20:35  I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to
support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It
is more blessed to give than to receive.  

ACT 20:36  And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them
all.  

ACT 20:37  And they all wept sore, and fell on Paul's neck, and kissed him,  

ACT 20:38  Sorrowing most of all for the words which he spake, that they should
see his face no more. And they accompanied him unto the ship.  

ACT 21:1  And it came to pass, that after we were gotten from them, and had
launched, we came with a straight course unto Coos, and the day following unto
Rhodes, and from thence unto Patara:  

ACT 21:2  And finding a ship sailing over unto Phenicia, we went aboard, and set
forth.  

ACT 21:3  Now when we had discovered Cyprus, we left it on the left hand, and
sailed into Syria, and landed at Tyre: for there the ship was to unlade her
burden.  

ACT 21:4  And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who said to Paul
through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.  

ACT 21:5  And when we had accomplished those days, we departed and went our way;
and they all brought us on our way, with wives and children, till we were out of
the city: and we kneeled down on the shore, and prayed.  

ACT 21:6  And when we had taken our leave one of another, we took ship; and they
returned home again.  

ACT 21:7  And when we had finished our course from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais,
and saluted the brethren, and abode with them one day.  

ACT 21:8  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.  

ACT 21:10  And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a
certain prophet, named Agabus.  

ACT 21:11  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.  

ACT 21:12  And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place,
besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.  

ACT 21:13  Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for
I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of
the Lord Jesus.  

ACT 21:14  And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of
the Lord be done.  

ACT 21:15  And after those days we took up our carriages, and went up to
Jerusalem.  

ACT 21:17  And when we were come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly. 


ACT 21:18  And the day following Paul went in with us unto James; and all the
elders were present.  

ACT 21:19  And when he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things
God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry.  

ACT 21:20  And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord, and said unto him,
Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are which believe; and
they are all zealous of the law:  

ACT 21:21  And they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews which
are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to
circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs.  

ACT 21:22  What is it therefore? the multitude must needs come together: for
they will hear that thou art come.  

ACT 21:23  Do therefore this that we say to thee: We have four men which have a
vow on them;  

ACT 21:24  Them take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them,
that they may shave their heads: and all may know that those things, whereof
they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but that thou thyself also
walkest orderly, and keepest the law.  

ACT 21:25  As touching the Gentiles which believe, we have written and concluded
that they observe no such thing, save only that they keep themselves from things
offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication.  

ACT 21:26  Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them
entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of
purification, until that an offering should be offered for every one of them.  

ACT 21:27  And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews which were of
Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands
on him,  

ACT 21:28  Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This is the man, that teacheth all
men every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further
brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place.  

ACT 21:29  (For they had seen before with him in the city Trophimus an Ephesian,
whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)  

ACT 21:30  And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and they
took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and forthwith the doors were shut.  

ACT 21:31  And as they went about to kill him, tidings came unto the chief
captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.  

ACT 21:32  Who immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down unto them:
and when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, they left beating of Paul. 


ACT 21:33  Then the chief captain came near, and took him, and commanded him to
be bound with two chains; and demanded who he was, and what he had done.  

ACT 21:34  And some cried one thing, some another, among the multitude: and when
he could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to be carried
into the castle.  

ACT 21:35  And when he came upon the stairs, so it was, that he was borne of the
soldiers for the violence of the people.  

ACT 21:36  For the multitude of the people followed after, crying, Away with
him.  

ACT 21:37  And as Paul was to be led into the castle, he said unto the chief
captain, May I speak unto thee? Who said, Canst thou speak Greek?  

ACT 21:38  Art not thou that Egyptian, which before these days madest an uproar,
and leddest out into the wilderness four thousand men that were murderers?  

ACT 21:39  But Paul said, I am a man which am a Jew of Tarsus, a city in
Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city: and, I beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto
the people.  

ACT 21:40  And when he had given him licence, Paul stood on the stairs, and
beckoned with the hand unto the people. And when there was made a great silence,
he spake unto them in the Hebrew tongue, saying,  

ACT 22:1  Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence which I make now unto
you.  

ACT 22:2  (And when they heard that he spake in the Hebrew tongue to them, they
kept the more silence: and he saith,)  

ACT 22:3  I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia,
yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the
perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all
are this day.  

ACT 22:4  And I persecuted this way unto the death, binding and delivering into
prisons both men and women.  

ACT 22:5  As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of
the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to
Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be
punished.  

ACT 22:6  And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh
unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round
about me.  

ACT 22:7  And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, Saul,
Saul, why persecutest thou me?  

ACT 22:8  And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of
Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.  

ACT 22:9  And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but
they heard not the voice of him that spake to me.  

ACT 22:10  And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said unto me, Arise,
and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things which are
appointed for thee to do.  

ACT 22:11  And when I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by
the hand of them that were with me, I came into Damascus.  

ACT 22:12  And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good
report of all the Jews which dwelt there,  

ACT 22:13  Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy
sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him.  

ACT 22:14  And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou
shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of
his mouth.  

ACT 22:15  For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and
heard.  

ACT 22:16  And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy
sins, calling on the name of the Lord.  

ACT 22:17  And it came to pass, that, when I was come again to Jerusalem, even
while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance;  

ACT 22:18  And saw him saying unto me, Make haste, and get thee quickly out of
Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.  

ACT 22:19  And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in every
synagogue them that believed on thee:  

ACT 22:20  And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was
standing by, and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment of them that
slew him.  

ACT 22:21  And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the
Gentiles.  

ACT 22:22  And they gave him audience unto this word, and then lifted up their
voices, and said, Away with such a fellow from the earth: for it is not fit that
he should live.  

ACT 22:23  And as they cried out, and cast off their clothes, and threw dust
into the air,  

ACT 22:24  The chief captain commanded him to be brought into the castle, and
bade that he should be examined by scourging; that he might know wherefore they
cried so against him.  

ACT 22:25  And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said unto the centurion that
stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and
uncondemned?  

ACT 22:26  When the centurion heard that, he went and told the chief captain,
saying, Take heed what thou doest: for this man is a Roman.  

ACT 22:27  Then the chief captain came, and said unto him, Tell me, art thou a
Roman? He said, Yea.  

ACT 22:28  And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this
freedom. And Paul said, But I was free born.  

ACT 22:29  Then straightway they departed from him which should have examined
him: and the chief captain also was afraid, after he knew that he was a Roman,
and because he had bound him.  

ACT 22:30  On the morrow, because he would have known the certainty wherefore he
was accused of the Jews, he loosed him from his bands, and commanded the chief
priests and all their council to appear, and brought Paul down, and set him
before them.  

ACT 23:1  And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I
have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.  

ACT 23:2  And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him to smite
him on the mouth.  

ACT 23:3  Then said Paul unto him, God shall smite thee, thou whited wall: for
sittest thou to judge me after the law, and commandest me to be smitten contrary
to the law?  

ACT 23:4  And they that stood by said, Revilest thou God's high priest?  

ACT 23:5  Then said Paul, I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for
it is written, Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people.  

ACT 23:6  But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the
other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee,
the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in
question.  

ACT 23:10  And when there arose a great dissension, the chief captain, fearing
lest Paul should have been pulled in pieces of them, commanded the soldiers to
go down, and to take him by force from among them, and to bring him into the
castle.  

ACT 23:11  And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good
cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear
witness also at Rome.  

ACT 23:12  And when it was day, certain of the Jews banded together, and bound
themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they
had killed Paul.  

ACT 23:13  And they were more than forty which had made this conspiracy.  

ACT 23:14  And they came to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have
bound ourselves under a great curse, that we will eat nothing until we have
slain Paul.  

ACT 23:15  Now therefore ye with the council signify to the chief captain that
he bring him down unto you to morrow, as though ye would enquire something more
perfectly concerning him: and we, or ever he come near, are ready to kill him.  

ACT 23:16  And when Paul's sister's son heard of their lying in wait, he went
and entered into the castle, and told Paul.  

ACT 23:17  Then Paul called one of the centurions unto him, and said, Bring this
young man unto the chief captain: for he hath a certain thing to tell him.  

ACT 23:18  So he took him, and brought him to the chief captain, and said, Paul
the prisoner called me unto him, and prayed me to bring this young man unto
thee, who hath something to say unto thee.  

ACT 23:19  Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went with him aside
privately, and asked him, What is that thou hast to tell me?  

ACT 23:20  And he said, The Jews have agreed to desire thee that thou wouldest
bring down Paul to morrow into the council, as though they would enquire
somewhat of him more perfectly.  

ACT 23:21  But do not thou yield unto them: for there lie in wait for him of
them more than forty men, which have bound themselves with an oath, that they
will neither eat nor drink  illothey have killed him: and now are they ready,
looking for a promise from thee.  

ACT 23:22  So the chief captain then let the young man depart, and charged him,
See thou tell no man that thou hast shewed these things to me.  

ACT 23:23  And he called unto him two centurions, saying, Make ready two hundred
soldiers to go to Caesarea, and horsemen threescore and ten, and spearmen two
hundred, at the third hour of the night;  

ACT 23:24  And provide them beasts, that they may set Paul on, and bring him
safe unto Felix the governor.  

ACT 23:25  And he wrote a letter after this manner:  

ACT 23:26  Claudius Lysias unto the most excellent governor Felix sendeth
greeting.  

ACT 23:27  This man was taken of the Jews, and should have been killed of them:
then came I with an army, and rescued him, having understood that he was a
Roman.  

ACT 23:28  And when I would have known the cause wherefore they accused him, I
brought him forth into their council:  

ACT 23:29  Whom I perceived to be accused of questions of their law, but to have
nothing laid to his charge worthy of death or of bonds.  

ACT 23:30  And when it was told me how that the Jews laid wait for the man, I
sent straightway to thee, and gave commandment to his accusers also to say
before thee what they had against him. Farewell.  

ACT 23:31  Then the soldiers, as it was commanded them, took Paul, and brought
him by night to Antipatris.  

ACT 23:32  On the morrow they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to
the castle:  

ACT 23:33  Who, when they came to Caesarea and delivered the epistle to the
governor, presented Paul also before him.  

ACT 23:35  I will hear thee, said he, when thine accusers are also come. And he
commanded him to be kept in Herod's judgment hall.  

ACT 24:1  And after five days Ananias the high priest descended with the elders,
and with a certain orator named Tertullus, who informed the governor against
Paul.  

ACT 24:2  And when he was called forth, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying,
Seeing that by thee we enjoy great quietness, and that very worthy deeds are
done unto this nation by thy providence,  

ACT 24:10  Then Paul, after that the governor had beckoned unto him to speak,
answered, Forasmuch as I know that thou hast been of many years a judge unto
this nation, I do the more cheerfully answer for myself:  

ACT 24:11  Because that thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve
days since I went up to Jerusalem for to worship.  

ACT 24:12  And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man,
neither raising up the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city:  

ACT 24:13  Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me.  

ACT 24:14  But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call
heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are
written in the law and in the prophets:  

ACT 24:15  And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that
there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.  

ACT 24:16  And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void to
offence toward God, and toward men.  

ACT 24:17  Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and
offerings.  

ACT 24:18  Whereupon certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple,
neither with multitude, nor with tumult.  

ACT 24:19  Who ought to have been here before thee, and object, if they had
ought against me.  

ACT 24:20  Or else let these same here say, if they have found any evil doing in
me, while I stood before the council,  

ACT 24:21  Except it be for this one voice, that I cried standing among them,
Touching the resurrection of the dead I am called in question by you this day.  

ACT 24:22  And when Felix heard these things, having more perfect knowledge of
that way, he deferred them, and said, When Lysias the chief captain shall come
down, I will know the uttermost of your matter.  

ACT 24:23  And he commanded a centurion to keep Paul, and to let him have
liberty, and that he should forbid none of his acquaintance to minister or come
unto him.  

ACT 24:24  And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, which
was a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ.  

ACT 24:25  And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and judgment to
come, Felix trembled, and answered, Go thy way for this time; when I have a
convenient season, I will call for thee.  

ACT 24:26  He hoped also that money should have been given him of Paul, that he
might l oseghim: wherefore he sent for him the oftener, and communed with him.  

ACT 24:27  But after two years Porcius Festus came into Felix' room: and Felix,
willing to shew the Jews a pleasure, left Paul bound.  

ACT 25:1  Now when Festus was come into the province, after three days he
ascended from Caesarea to Jerusalem.  

ACT 25:2  Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against
Paul, and besought him,  

ACT 25:3  And desired favour against him, that he would send for him to
Jerusalem, laying wait in the way to kill him.  

ACT 25:4  But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Caesarea, and that he
himself would depart shortly thither.  

ACT 25:5  Let them therefore, said he, which among you are able, go down with
me, and accuse this man, if there be any wickedness in him.  

ACT 25:6  And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down
unto Caesarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat commanded Paul to
be brought.  

ACT 25:7  And when he was come, the Jews which came down from Jerusalem stood
round about, and laid many and grievous complaints against Paul, which they
could not prove.  

ACT 25:8  While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews,
neither against the temple, nor yet against Caesar, have I offended any thing at
all.  

ACT 25:9  But Festus, willing to do the Jews a pleasure, answered Paul, and
said, Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before
me?  

ACT 25:10  Then said Paul, I stand at Caesar's judgment seat, where I ought to
be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou very well knowest.  

ACT 25:11  For if I be an offender, or have committed any thing worthy of death,
I refuse not to die: but if there be none of these things whereof these accuse
me, no man may deliver me unto them. I appeal unto Caesar.  

ACT 25:12  Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast
thou appealed unto Caesar? unto Caesar shalt thou go.  

ACT 25:13  And after certain days king Agrippa and Bernice came unto Caesarea to
salute Festus.  

ACT 25:14  And when they had been there many days, Festus declared Paul's cause
unto the king, saying, There is a certain man left in bonds by Felix:  

ACT 25:15  About whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders
of the Jews informed me, desiring to have judgment against him.  

ACT 25:16  To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any
man to die, before that he which is accused have the accusers face to face, and
have licence to answer for himself concerning the crime laid against him.  

ACT 25:17  Therefore, when they were come hither, without any delay on the
morrow I sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought forth.  

ACT 25:18  Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought none accusation
of such things as I supposed:  

ACT 25:19  But had certain questions against him of their own superstition, and
of one Jesus, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.  

ACT 25:20  And because I doubted of such manner of questions, I asked him
whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these matters.  

ACT 25:21  But when Paul had appealed to be reserved unto the hearing of
Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I might send him to Caesar.  

ACT 25:22  Then Agrippa said unto Festus, I would also hear the man myself. To
morrow, said he, thou shalt hear him.  

ACT 25:23  And on the morrow, when Agrippa was come, and Bernice, with great
pomp, and was entered into the place of hearing, with the chief captains, and
principal men of the city, at Festus' commandment Paul was brought forth.  

ACT 25:24  And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all men which are here present
with us, ye see this man, about whom all the multitude of the Jews have dealt
with me, both at Jerusalem, and also here, crying that he ought not to live any
longer.  

ACT 25:25  But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and
that he himself hath appealed to Augustus, I have determined to send him.  

ACT 25:26  Of whom I have no certain thing to write unto my lord. Wherefore I
have brought him forth before you, and specially before thee, O king Agrippa,
that, after examination had, I might have somewhat to write.  

ACT 25:27  For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not withal
to signify the crimes laid against him.  

ACT 26:1  Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Thou art permitted to speak for thyself.
Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and answered for himself:  

ACT 26:2  I think myself happy, king Agrippa, because I shall answer for myself
this day before thee touching all the things whereof I am accused of the Jews:  

ACT 26:3  Especially because I know thee to be expert in all customs and
questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me
patiently.  

ACT 26:4  My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among mine own
nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews;  

ACT 26:5  Which knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after
the most straitest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.  

ACT 26:6  And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God,
unto our fathers:  

ACT 26:7  Unto which promise our twelve tribes, instantly serving God day and
night, hope to come. For which hope's sake, king Agrippa, I am accused of the
Jews.  

ACT 26:8  Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should
raise the dead?  

ACT 26:9  I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary
to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.  

ACT 26:10  Which thing I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I
shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when
they were put to death, I gave my voice against them.  

ACT 26:11  And I punished them oft in every synagogue, and compelled them to
blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even unto
strange cities.  

ACT 26:12  Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from
the chief priests,  

ACT 26:13  At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the
brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me. 


ACT 26:14  And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking
unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.  

ACT 26:15  And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou
persecutest.  

ACT 26:16  But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for
this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which
thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;  

ACT 26:17  Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now
I send thee,  

ACT 26:18  To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from
the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and
inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.  

ACT 26:19  Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly
vision:  

ACT 26:20  But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and
throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should
repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.  

ACT 26:21  For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to
kill me.  

ACT 26:22  Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day,
witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which
the prophets and Moses did say should come:  

ACT 26:23  That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that
should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the
Gentiles.  

ACT 26:24  And as he thus spake for himself, Festus said with a loud voice,
Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning doth make thee mad.  

ACT 26:25  But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus; but speak forth the
words of truth and soberness.  

ACT 26:26  For the king knoweth of these things, before whom also I speak
freely: for I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him; for
this thing was not done in a corner.  

ACT 26:27  King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know that thou
believest.  

ACT 26:28  Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a
Christian.  

ACT 26:29  And Paul said, I would to God, that not only thou, but also all that
hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these
bonds.  

ACT 26:30  And when he had thus spoken, the king rose up, and the governor, and
Bernice, and they that sat with them:  

ACT 26:31  And when they were gone aside, they talked between themselves,
saying, This man doeth nothing worthy of death or of bonds.  

ACT 26:32  Then said Agrippa unto Festus, This man might have been set at
liberty, if he had not appealed unto Caesar.  

ACT 27:1  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.  

ACT 27:2  And entering into a ship of Adramyttium, we launched, meaning to sail
by the coasts of Asia; one Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with
us.  

ACT 27:3  And the next day we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously entreated
Paul, and gave him liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself.  

ACT 27:4  And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because
the winds were contrary.  

ACT 27:5  And when we had sailed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came
to Myra, a city of Lycia.  

ACT 27:6  And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy;
and he put us therein.  

ACT 27:7  And when we had sailed slowly many days, and scarce were come over
against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over against
Salmone;  

ACT 27:8  And, hardly passing it, came unto a place which is called The fair
havens; nigh whereunto was the city of Lasea.  

ACT 27:9  Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous,
because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished them,  

ACT 27:10  And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with
hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.  

ACT 27:11  Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the
ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul.  

ACT 27:12  And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part
advised to depart thence also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, and
there to winter; which is an haven of Crete, and lieth toward the south west and
north west.  

ACT 27:13  And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained
their purpose, loosing thence, they sailed close by Crete.  

ACT 27:14  But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called
Euroclydon.  

ACT 27:15  And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up into the wind, we
let her drive.  

ACT 27:16  And running under a certain island which is called Clauda, we had
much work to come by the boat:  

ACT 27:17  Which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship;
and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, strake sail, and so were
driven.  

ACT 27:18  And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next day they
lightened the ship;  

ACT 27:19  And the third day we cast out with our own hands the tackling of the
ship.  

ACT 27:20  And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small
tempest lay on us, all hope that we should be saved was then taken away.  

ACT 27:21  But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and
said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete,
and to have gained this harm and loss.  

ACT 27:22  And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss
of any man's life among you, but of the ship.  

ACT 27:23  For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and
whom I serve,  

ACT 27:24  Saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo,
God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.  

ACT 27:25  Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall
be even as it was told me.  

ACT 27:26  Howbeit we must be cast upon a certain island.  

ACT 27:27  But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down
in Adria, about midnight the shipmen deemed that they drew near to some country; 


ACT 27:28  And sounded, and found it twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a
little further, they sounded again, and found it fifteen fathoms.  

ACT 27:29  Then fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four
anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.  

ACT 27:30  And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had
let down the boat into the sea, under colour as though they would have cast
anchors out of the foreship,  

ACT 27:31  Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in
the ship, ye cannot be saved.  

ACT 27:32  Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall
off.  

ACT 27:33  And while the day was coming on, Paul besought them all to take m
at,lsaying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye have tarried and continued
fasting, having taken nothing.  

ACT 27:34  Wherefore I pray you to take some meat: for this is for your health:
for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you.  

ACT 27:35  And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in
presence of them all: and when he had broken it, he began to eat.  

ACT 27:36  Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took some meat.  

ACT 27:37  And we were in all in the ship two hundred threescore and sixteen
souls.  

ACT 27:38  And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out
the wheat into the sea.  

ACT 27:39  And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discovered a
certain creek with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were
possible, to thrust in the ship.  

ACT 27:40  And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves
unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoised up the mainsail to the
wind, and made toward shore.  

ACT 27:41  And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship
aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmoveable, but the hinder
part was broken with the violence of the waves.  

ACT 27:42  And the soldiers' counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them
should swim out, and escape.  

ACT 27:43  But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from their
purpose; and commanded that they which could swim should cast themselves first
into the sea, and get to land:  

ACT 27:44  And the rest, some on boards, and some on broken pieces of the ship.
And so it came to pass, that they escaped all safe to land.  

ACT 28:1  And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called
Melita.  

ACT 28:2  And the barbarous people shewed us no little kindness: for they
kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and
because of the cold.  

ACT 28:3  And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the
fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.  

ACT 28:4  And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they
said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath
escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.  

ACT 28:5  And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.  

ACT 28:6  Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead
suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him,
they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.  

ACT 28:7  In the same quarters were possessions of the chief man of the island,
whose name was Publius; who received us, and lodged us three days courteously.  

ACT 28:8  And it came to pass, that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever
and of a bloody flux: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on
him, and healed him.  

ACT 28:9  So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island,
came, and were healed:  

ACT 28:10  Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they
laded us with such things as were necessary.  

ACT 28:11  And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had
wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.  

ACT 28:12  And landing at Syracuse, we tarried there three days.  

ACT 28:13  And from thence we fetched a compass, and came to Rhegium: and after
one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli:  

ACT 28:14  Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven
days: and so we went toward Rome.  

ACT 28:15  And from thence, when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us
as far as Appii forum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he thanked
God, and took courage.  

ACT 28:16  And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to
the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered to dwell by himself with a
soldier that kept him.  

ACT 28:17  And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of
the Jews together: 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.  

ACT 28:18  Who, when they had examined me, would have let me go, because there
was no cause of death in me.  

ACT 28:19  But when the Jews spake against it, I was constrained to appeal unto
Caesar; not that I had ought to accuse my nation of.  

ACT 28:20  For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see you, and to
speak with you: because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain. 


ACT 28:21  And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judaea
concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came shewed or spake any harm
of thee.  

ACT 28:22  But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning
this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.  

ACT 28:23  And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into
his lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading
them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets,
from morning till evening.  

ACT 28:24  And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed
not.  

ACT 28:25  And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that
Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto
our fathers,  

ACT 28:26  Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and
shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:  

ACT 28:27  For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull
of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their
eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be
converted, and I should heal them.  

ACT 28:28  Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent
unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.  

ACT 28:29  And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great
reasoning among themselves.  

ACT 28:30  And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received
all that came in unto him,  

ACT 28:31  Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern
the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.  

ROM 1:1  Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated
unto the gospel of God,  

ROM 1:2  (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)  

ROM 8:35  Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or
distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?  

ROM 8:36  As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long  wehare
accounted as sheep for the slaughter.  

ROM 8:37  Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that
loved us.  

ROM 11:1  I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am
an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.  

ROM 11:13  For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the
Gentiles, I magnify mine office:  

ROM 15:16  That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles,
ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be
acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.  

1CO 1:1  Paul called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God,
and Sosthenes our brother,  

1CO 1:2  Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified
in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the
name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:  

1CO 4:9  For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were
appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels,
and to men.  

1CO 4:11  Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked,
and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace;  

1CO 4:12  And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being
persecuted, we suffer it:  

1CO 4:13  Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and
are the offscouring of all things unto this day.  

1CO 9:1  Am I not an apostle? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our
Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord?  

1CO 9:2  If I be not an apostle unto others, yet doubtless I am to you: for the
seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord.  

2CO 1:8  For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came
to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch
that we despaired even of life:  

2CO 1:9  But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust
in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:  

2CO 1:10  Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we
trust that he will yet deliver us;  

2CO 1:11  Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed
upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf. 


2CO 4:8  We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed,
but not in despair;  

2CO 4:9  Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;  

2CO 4:10  Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the
life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.  

2CO 4:11  For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that
the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.  

2CO 4:12  So then death worketh in us, but life in you.  

2CO 6:4  But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much
patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,  

2CO 6:5  In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in
fastings;  

2CO 6:8  By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers,
and yet true;  

2CO 6:9  As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as
chastened, and not killed;  

2CO 6:10  As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as
having nothing, and yet possessing all things.  

2CO 10:1  Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of
Christ, who in presence am base among you, but being absent am bold toward you: 


2CO 11:23  Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in
labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in
deaths oft.  

2CO 11:24  Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.  

2CO 11:25  Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered
shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;  

2CO 11:26  In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in
perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city,
in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false
brethren;  

2CO 11:27  In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and
thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.  

2CO 11:32  In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king kept the city of the
Damascenes with a garrison, desirous to apprehend me:  

2CO 11:33  And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and
escaped his hands.  

2CO 12:1  It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions
and revelations of the Lord.  

2CO 12:2  I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body,
I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an
one caught up to the third heaven.  

2CO 12:3  And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I
cannot tell: God knoweth;)  

2CO 12:4  How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words,
which it is not lawful for a man to utter.  

2CO 12:7  And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of
the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of
Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.  

2CO 12:8  For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from
me.  

2CO 12:9  And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength
is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my
infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.  

2CO 12:10  Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in
necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am
weak, then am I strong.  

GAL 1:1  Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and
God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)  

GAL 1:13  For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews'
religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it: 


GAL 1:14  And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own
nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.  

GAL 1:15  But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and
called me by his gra e, l

GAL 1:16  To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen;
immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:  

GAL 1:17  Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me;
but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.  

GAL 1:18  Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode
with him fifteen days.  

GAL 1:19  But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.  

GAL 1:20  Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not. 


GAL 1:21  Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;  

GAL 1:22  And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in
Christ:  

GAL 1:23  But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now
preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.  

GAL 1:24  And they glorified God in me.  

GAL 4:13  Ye know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto
you at the first.  

GAL 4:14  And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected;
but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.  

GAL 5:11  And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer
persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.  

GAL 6:17  From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the marks
of the Lord Jesus.  

EPH 1:1  Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints
which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:  

PHI 1:30  Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me. 


PHI 2:17  Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith,
I joy, and rejoice with you all.  

PHI 2:18  For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me.  

COL 1:1  Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timotheus our
brother,  

COL 1:24  Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is
behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is
the church:  

1TH 2:2  But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully
entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you
the gospel of God with much contention.  

1TH 2:9  For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night
and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto
you the gospel of God.  

1TH 2:14  For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in
Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own
countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:  

1TH 2:15  Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have
persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:  

1TH 3:4  For verily, when we were with you  wettold you before that we should
suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.  

2TH 1:1  Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the
Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:  

2TH 3:8  Neither did we eat any man's bread for nought; but wrought with labour
and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:  

1TI 1:1  Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour,
and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;  

1TI 1:12  And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he
counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;  

1TI 1:13  Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I
obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.  

1TI 2:7  Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth
in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.  

2TI 1:1  Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the
promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,  

2TI 1:11  Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of
the Gentiles.  

2TI 1:12  For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not
ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to
keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.  

2TI 2:9  Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the
word of God is not bound.  

2TI 2:10  Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may
also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.  

2TI 3:11  Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium,
at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered
me.  

2TI 3:12  Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer
persecution.  

2TI 4:14  Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him
according to his works:  

2TI 4:16  At my first answer no man stood with me, but all men forsook me: I
pray God that it may not be laid to their charge.  

2TI 4:17  Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by
me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and
I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.  

TIT 1:1  Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to
the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after
godliness;  

TIT 1:3  But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is
committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;  

HEB 10:34  For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the
spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better
and an enduring substance.
