Acts

Chapter 16

1 THEN he arrived at the city of Der'be and Lys'tra: there was there a disciple whose name was Timo'the-us, the son of a Jewess convert, but whose father was a Syr'ian.

2 And all the disciples of Lys'tra and I-co'nium gave good testimony concerning him.

3 Paul wanted to take this man with him, so he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in that region; for they all knew that his father was a Syr'i-an.

4 And as they went through the cities, they preached and taught the people to obey the decrees which the apostles and elders had written at Jerusalem.

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

6 Then they traveled through the countries of Phryg'i-a and Ga-la'tia, and the Holy Spirit forbade them to speak the word of God in Asia Minor.

7 And when they came to the country of Mys'ia, they wanted to go from thence to Bi-thyn'i-a: but the spirit of Jesus permitted them not.

8 And when they had left Mys'ia, they came to the country of Tro'as.

9 And, in a vision of the night, there appeared to Paul a man resembling a Mac-edo'ni- an, standing and begging him, saying, Come over to Mac-e-do'ni-a and help me.

10 And after Paul had seen this vision, we were desirous to leave for Mac-e-do'ni-a at once, because we understood that our LORD had called us to preach the gospel to them.*

11 When we sailed from Tro'as, we came in a direct course to Sam-o-thra'cia, and from thence on the following day, we came to the city Ne-ap'o-lis;

12 And from thence to Phi-lip'pi, which is the capital of Mac-e-do'ni-a, and is a colony: and we were in that city on some holidays.

13 And on the sabbath day we went outside the city gate to the river side because a house of prayer was seen there, and when we were seated, we spoke to the women who had gathered there.

14 And a certain woman, named Lyd'i-a, a seller of purple of the city of Thy-a-ti'ra, feared God; her heart was so touched by our LORD that she listened to what Paul said.

15 And she was baptized together with her household, and she begged us, saying, If you are sincerely convinced that I believe in our LORD, come and stay in my house; and she urged us strongly.

16 And it came to pass, as we went to the house of prayer, we were met by a young girl who was possessed of a spirit, and who did for her masters a great business by fortune telling.

17 And she followed Paul and us, crying and saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, and they preach to you the way of salvation.

18 And she did this for many days. So Paul was indignant and said to the spirit, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And it left her the same hour.

19 And when her masters saw that the hope for their business was lost with her power, they seized Paul and Silas and beat them and brought them to the market place.

20 And they brought them before the soldiers and the city magistrates and said, These men are Jews, and they create disturbances in our city,

21 And they preach customs to us which are not lawful for us to accept and practice, because we are Romans.

22 And a large crowd gathered against them. Then the soldiers stripped them of their clothes and gave command to scourge them.

23 And when they had flogged them severely, they cast them into prison, charging the jailer to watch them carefully. Paul and Silas in prison.

24 He, having received the charge, brought them in and put them into the inner chamber of the prison, and fastened their feet in the stocks.

25 Now at midnight Paul and Silas prayed and glorified God; and the prisoners heard them.

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 the bands of all were loosed.

27 When the keeper of the prison awoke, and saw that the prison doors were open, he took a sword and would have killed himself, for he thought the prisoners had escaped.

28 But Paul cried with a loud voice and said to him, Do not harm yourself, for we are all here.

29 Then he lighted a lamp, and sprang in, trembling, and threw himself at the feet of Paul and Silas.

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

31 And they said to him, Believe in our LORD Jesus Christ, and both you and your household will be saved.

32 And they spoke to him the word of the LORD, and to all who were of his household.

33 And he took them at that hour of the night and washed their wounds; and then was baptized in that very hour, he and all his household.

34 And when he had brought them up into his house, he set food before them; and he and all the members of his household rejoiced, believing in God.

35 In the morning, the soldiers sent the lictors to tell the prison warden to release those men.

36 And when the keeper of the prison heard this, he went in and told Paul, saying, The soldiers have sent orders to release you: now therefore depart, and go in peace.

37 But Paul said to him, Not having committed any offense, they flogged us, Roman citizens, in the presence of the people, and they cast us into prison; and now do they let us out secretly? No verily; let them come themselves and fetch us out.

38 And the lictors went and told the soliers these words which were told to them: and when they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens, they were afraid.

39 And they came to them and urged them to get out and depart from the city.

40 And they went out of the prison and entered into the house of Lydia where they saw the brethren and comforted them, and departed.

Kapitel 16

1 Er kam2658 aber1161 gen1519 Derbe1191 und2532 Lystra3082; und2532 siehe2400, ein5100 Jünger3101 war2258 daselbst1563 mit Namen3686 Timotheus5095, eines5100 jüdischen2453 Weibes1135 Sohn, die war gläubig4103, aber1161 eines griechischen1672 Vaters3962.

2 Der3739 hatte ein gut Gerücht3140 bei den Brüdern80 unter5259 den Lystranern3082 und2532 zu1722 Ikonien2430

3 Diesen5126 wollte2309 Paulus3972 lassen mit4862 sich848 ziehen und2532 nahm2983 und beschnitt4059 ihn846 um1223 der1565 Juden2453 willen, die3588 an1722 demselbigen Ort5117 waren5607; denn1063 sie846 wußten1492 alle537, daß3754 sein5225 Vater3962 war1831 ein Grieche1672 gewesen.

4 Als5613 sie846 aber1161 durch1279 die Städte4172 zogen, überantworteten sie ihnen, zu1722 halten5442 den3588 Spruch1378, welcher von5259 den Aposteln652 und2532 den Ältesten4245 zu Jerusalem2419 beschlossen2919 war3860.

5 Da3767 wurden4732 die Gemeinden1577 im2596 Glauben4102 befestiget und2532 nahmen zu4052 an der Zahl706 täglich.

6 Da1330 sie aber1161 durch Phrygien5435 und2532 das Land5561 Galatien1054 zogen, ward ihnen gewehret von5259 dem Heiligen40 Geist4151, zu reden2980 das Wort3056 in1722 Asien773.

7 Als sie3985 aber4198 kamen2064 an Mysien3465, versuchten sie, durch2596 Bithynien978 zu2596 reisen; und2532 der Geist4151 ließ1439 es ihnen nicht3756 zu.

8 Da sie aber1161 an Mysien3465 vorüberzogen, kamen sie hinab2597 gen1519 Troas5174.

9 Und2532 Paulus3972 erschien3700 ein Gesicht3705 bei der Nacht3571; das war2258 ein Mann435 aus1223 Mazedonien3110, der stund und bat3870 ihn2476 und sprach3004: Komm hernieder nach1519 Mazedonien3109 und hilf997 uns2254!

10 Als er846 aber1161 das3754 Gesicht3705 gesehen1492 hatte, da trachteten2212 wir alsobald2112 zu reisen1831 nach1519 Mazedonien3109, gewiß4822, daß5613 uns2248 der HErr2962 dahin berufen hätte4341, ihnen das Evangelium zu predigen2097.

11 Da3767 fuhren wir2113 aus321 von575 Troas5174, und5037 stracks Laufs kamen wir gen1519 Samothrazien4543, des andern1966 Tages gen1519 Neapolis3496

12 und5037 von1564 dannen gen Philippi5375, welches ist2076 die3748 Hauptstadt4413 des1722 Landes3310 Mazedonien3109 und eine Freistadt2862. Wir hatten2258 aber1161 in1519 dieser5026 Stadt4172 unser Wesen1304 etliche5100 Tage2250.

13 Am Tage2250 des Sabbats gingen wir1511 hinaus1831 vor1854 die Stadt4172 an3844 das Wasser4215, da3757 man pflegte3543 zu beten4335, und5037 setzten uns2523 und2532 redeten2980 zu den Weibern1135, die da zusammenkamen4905.

14 Und2532 ein5100 gottesfürchtig2316 Weib1135 mit Namen3686 Lydia3070, eine Purpurkrämerin4211 aus der5259 Stadt4172 der Thyatirer, hörete zu191; welcher3739 tat der HErr2962 das Herz2588 auf1272, daß sie4576 darauf achthatte4337, was von Paulus3972 geredet ward2980.

15 Als sie3870 aber1161 und2532 ihr846 Haus3624 getauft907 ward, ermahnete sie uns2248 und2532 sprach3004: So1487 ihr mich3165 achtet2919, daß5613 ich gläubig4103 bin1511 an den HErrn2962, so kommet in1519 mein3450 Haus3624 und bleibet3306 allda. Und sie zwang uns.

16 Es geschah1096 aber1161, da wir5100 zu1519 dem Gebet4335 gingen4198, daß eine Magd3814 uns2257 begegnete528, die3748 hatte2192 einen Wahrsagergeist4151 und trug3930 ihren Herren2962 viel4183 Genieß zu mit Wahrsagen3132.

17 Dieselbige folgte2628 allenthalben Paulus3972 und2532 uns2254 nach, schrie2896 und sprach3004: Diese3778 Menschen sind1526 Knechte1401 Gottes2316, des Allerhöchsten5310, die3748 euch2254 den444 Weg3598 der3778 Seligkeit4991 verkündigen2605!

18 Solches tat4160 sie manchen4183 Tag2250. Paulus3972 aber1161 tat das5124 weh, und1161 wandte1994 sich um und2532 sprach2036 zu1909 dem Geist4151: Ich gebiete3853 dir4671 in1722 dem Namen3686 JEsu2424 Christi5547, daß du von575 ihr846 ausfahrest1831! Und2532 er846 fuhr aus1831 zu derselbigen Stunde5610.

19 Da aber1161 ihre Herren2962 sahen1492, daß3754 die Hoffnung1680 ihres Genießes war1831 ausgefahren, nahmen sie846 Paulus3972 und2532 Silas4609, zogen1670 sie1949 auf1519 den Markt58 vor1909 die Obersten758

20 und2532 führeten sie846 zu den444 Hauptleuten4755 und sprachen2036: Diese3778 Menschen machen1613 unsere2257 Stadt4172 irre und sind5225 Juden2453

21 und2532 verkündigen2605 eine Weise1485, welche3739 uns2254 nicht3756 ziemet anzunehmen3858 noch3761 zu tun4160, weil wir Römer4514 sind5607.

22 Und2532 das Volk3793 ward erregt4911 wider2596 sie846. Und2532 die Hauptleute4755 ließen4048 ihnen die Kleider2440 abreißen und hießen2753 sie846 stäupen4463.

23 Und5037 da sie2007 sie846 wohl4183 gestäupet hatten, warfen906 sie sie ins1519 Gefängnis5438 und geboten3853 dem Kerkermeister1200, daß er846 sie wohl806 bewahrete.

24 Der nahm2983 solch5108 Gebot3852 an und2532 warf906 sie846 in1519 das3739 innerste2082 Gefängnis5438 und legte805 ihre846 Füße4228 in den Stock3586.

25 Um2596 die Mitternacht3317 aber1161 beteten4336 Paulus3972 und2532 Silas4609 und1161 lobeten GOtt2316. Und es höreten sie846 die Gefangenen1198.

26 Schnell869 aber1161 ward3916 ein großes3173 Erdbeben4578, also daß5620 sich bewegeten die Grundfesten2310 des Gefängnisses1201. Und5037 von Stund‘ an wurden1096 alle3956 Türen2374 aufgetan455 und aller3956 Bande1199 los447.

27 Als aber1161 der Kerkermeister1200 aus dem Schlafe1853 fuhr und2532 sah die Türen2374 des Gefängnisses5438 aufgetan455, zog4685 er das1492 Schwert3162 aus und wollte3195 sich1096 selbst1438 erwürgen337; denn er meinete, die Gefangenen1198 wären entflohen1628.

28 Paulus3972 aber1161 rief5455 laut3173 und sprach3004: Tue4238 dir4572 nichts3367 Übles2556; denn1063 wir sind2070 alle537 hier1759.

29 Er forderte154 aber1161 ein Licht5457 und2532 sprang hinein1530 und2532 ward1096 zitternd1790 und fiel4363 Paulus3972 und Silas4609 zu den Füßen

30 und2532 führete sie846 heraus1854 und sprach5346: Liebe Herren2962, was5101 soll1163 ich tun4160, daß3165 ich selig4982 werde?

31 Sie sprachen2036:. Glaube4100 an1909 den HErrn2962 JEsum2424 Christum5547, so2532 wirst du4771 und1161 dein4675 Haus3624 selig4982.

32 Und2532 sie846 sagten2980 ihm das3956 Wort3056 des846 HErrn2962 und2532 allen, die in1722 seinem Hause3614 waren.

33 Und2532 er nahm3880 sie zu sich in1722 derselbigen Stunde5610 der1565 Nacht3571 und wusch3068 ihnen die Striemen ab; und er ließ sich taufen907 und alle3956 die Seinen alsobald3916.

34 Und5037 führete sie321 in1519 sein846 Haus und2532 setzte ihnen3908 einen Tisch5132 und freuete sich848 mit seinem ganzen Hause3624, daß er846 an GOtt2316 gläubig4100 worden war.

35 Und1161 da es Tag2250 ward1096, sandten649 die1565 Hauptleute4755 Stadtdiener4465 und sprachen3004: Laß630 die Menschen444 gehen630!

36 Und1161 der Kerkermeister1200 verkündigte518 diese5128 Rede3056 Paulus: Die Hauptleute4755 haben hergesandt, daß4314 ihr los630 sein sollt. Nun3568 ziehet aus1831 und3767 gehet4198 hin649 mit1722 Frieden1515.

37 Paulus3972 aber1161 sprach5346 zu4314 ihnen846: Sie846 haben uns2248 ohne Recht und2532 Urteil178 öffentlich1219 gestäupet, die wir doch Römer sind5225, und1063 in1519 das Gefängnis5438 geworfen906 und sollten1544 uns2248 nun3568 heimlich2977 ausstoßen? Nicht3756 also, sondern235 lasset sie1194 selbst kommen2064 und uns2248 hinausführen1806.

38 Die191 Stadtdiener4465 verkündigten312 diese5023 Worte4487 den Hauptleuten4755; und1161 sie fürchteten sich5399, da2532 sie höreten, daß3754 sie Römer4514 wären1526,

39 und2532 kamen2064 und2532 ermahneten sie846 und führeten sie heraus1831 und baten3870 sie, daß sie auszögen aus1806 der Stadt4172.

40 Da gingen1525 sie846 aus1831 dem Gefängnis5438 und1161 gingen1831 zu1519 der Lydia3070. Und2532 da sie die Brüder80 gesehen1492 hatten und2532 getröstet3870, zogen sie aus1537.

Kapitel 16

1 THEN he arrived at the city of Der'be and Lys'tra: there was there a disciple whose name was Timo'the-us, the son of a Jewess convert, but whose father was a Syr'ian.

1 Er kam2658 aber1161 gen1519 Derbe1191 und2532 Lystra3082; und2532 siehe2400, ein5100 Jünger3101 war2258 daselbst1563 mit Namen3686 Timotheus5095, eines5100 jüdischen2453 Weibes1135 Sohn, die war gläubig4103, aber1161 eines griechischen1672 Vaters3962.

2 And all the disciples of Lys'tra and I-co'nium gave good testimony concerning him.

2 Der3739 hatte ein gut Gerücht3140 bei den Brüdern80 unter5259 den Lystranern3082 und2532 zu1722 Ikonien2430

3 Paul wanted to take this man with him, so he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in that region; for they all knew that his father was a Syr'i-an.

3 Diesen5126 wollte2309 Paulus3972 lassen mit4862 sich848 ziehen und2532 nahm2983 und beschnitt4059 ihn846 um1223 der1565 Juden2453 willen, die3588 an1722 demselbigen Ort5117 waren5607; denn1063 sie846 wußten1492 alle537, daß3754 sein5225 Vater3962 war1831 ein Grieche1672 gewesen.

4 And as they went through the cities, they preached and taught the people to obey the decrees which the apostles and elders had written at Jerusalem.

4 Als5613 sie846 aber1161 durch1279 die Städte4172 zogen, überantworteten sie ihnen, zu1722 halten5442 den3588 Spruch1378, welcher von5259 den Aposteln652 und2532 den Ältesten4245 zu Jerusalem2419 beschlossen2919 war3860.

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

5 Da3767 wurden4732 die Gemeinden1577 im2596 Glauben4102 befestiget und2532 nahmen zu4052 an der Zahl706 täglich.

6 Then they traveled through the countries of Phryg'i-a and Ga-la'tia, and the Holy Spirit forbade them to speak the word of God in Asia Minor.

7 And when they came to the country of Mys'ia, they wanted to go from thence to Bi-thyn'i-a: but the spirit of Jesus permitted them not.

7 Als sie3985 aber4198 kamen2064 an Mysien3465, versuchten sie, durch2596 Bithynien978 zu2596 reisen; und2532 der Geist4151 ließ1439 es ihnen nicht3756 zu.

8 And when they had left Mys'ia, they came to the country of Tro'as.

8 Da sie aber1161 an Mysien3465 vorüberzogen, kamen sie hinab2597 gen1519 Troas5174.

9 And, in a vision of the night, there appeared to Paul a man resembling a Mac-edo'ni- an, standing and begging him, saying, Come over to Mac-e-do'ni-a and help me.

9 Und2532 Paulus3972 erschien3700 ein Gesicht3705 bei der Nacht3571; das war2258 ein Mann435 aus1223 Mazedonien3110, der stund und bat3870 ihn2476 und sprach3004: Komm hernieder nach1519 Mazedonien3109 und hilf997 uns2254!

10 And after Paul had seen this vision, we were desirous to leave for Mac-e-do'ni-a at once, because we understood that our LORD had called us to preach the gospel to them.*

10 Als er846 aber1161 das3754 Gesicht3705 gesehen1492 hatte, da trachteten2212 wir alsobald2112 zu reisen1831 nach1519 Mazedonien3109, gewiß4822, daß5613 uns2248 der HErr2962 dahin berufen hätte4341, ihnen das Evangelium zu predigen2097.

11 When we sailed from Tro'as, we came in a direct course to Sam-o-thra'cia, and from thence on the following day, we came to the city Ne-ap'o-lis;

11 Da3767 fuhren wir2113 aus321 von575 Troas5174, und5037 stracks Laufs kamen wir gen1519 Samothrazien4543, des andern1966 Tages gen1519 Neapolis3496

12 And from thence to Phi-lip'pi, which is the capital of Mac-e-do'ni-a, and is a colony: and we were in that city on some holidays.

12 und5037 von1564 dannen gen Philippi5375, welches ist2076 die3748 Hauptstadt4413 des1722 Landes3310 Mazedonien3109 und eine Freistadt2862. Wir hatten2258 aber1161 in1519 dieser5026 Stadt4172 unser Wesen1304 etliche5100 Tage2250.

13 And on the sabbath day we went outside the city gate to the river side because a house of prayer was seen there, and when we were seated, we spoke to the women who had gathered there.

13 Am Tage2250 des Sabbats gingen wir1511 hinaus1831 vor1854 die Stadt4172 an3844 das Wasser4215, da3757 man pflegte3543 zu beten4335, und5037 setzten uns2523 und2532 redeten2980 zu den Weibern1135, die da zusammenkamen4905.

14 And a certain woman, named Lyd'i-a, a seller of purple of the city of Thy-a-ti'ra, feared God; her heart was so touched by our LORD that she listened to what Paul said.

14 Und2532 ein5100 gottesfürchtig2316 Weib1135 mit Namen3686 Lydia3070, eine Purpurkrämerin4211 aus der5259 Stadt4172 der Thyatirer, hörete zu191; welcher3739 tat der HErr2962 das Herz2588 auf1272, daß sie4576 darauf achthatte4337, was von Paulus3972 geredet ward2980.

15 And she was baptized together with her household, and she begged us, saying, If you are sincerely convinced that I believe in our LORD, come and stay in my house; and she urged us strongly.

15 Als sie3870 aber1161 und2532 ihr846 Haus3624 getauft907 ward, ermahnete sie uns2248 und2532 sprach3004: So1487 ihr mich3165 achtet2919, daß5613 ich gläubig4103 bin1511 an den HErrn2962, so kommet in1519 mein3450 Haus3624 und bleibet3306 allda. Und sie zwang uns.

16 And it came to pass, as we went to the house of prayer, we were met by a young girl who was possessed of a spirit, and who did for her masters a great business by fortune telling.

16 Es geschah1096 aber1161, da wir5100 zu1519 dem Gebet4335 gingen4198, daß eine Magd3814 uns2257 begegnete528, die3748 hatte2192 einen Wahrsagergeist4151 und trug3930 ihren Herren2962 viel4183 Genieß zu mit Wahrsagen3132.

17 And she followed Paul and us, crying and saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, and they preach to you the way of salvation.

17 Dieselbige folgte2628 allenthalben Paulus3972 und2532 uns2254 nach, schrie2896 und sprach3004: Diese3778 Menschen sind1526 Knechte1401 Gottes2316, des Allerhöchsten5310, die3748 euch2254 den444 Weg3598 der3778 Seligkeit4991 verkündigen2605!

18 And she did this for many days. So Paul was indignant and said to the spirit, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And it left her the same hour.

18 Solches tat4160 sie manchen4183 Tag2250. Paulus3972 aber1161 tat das5124 weh, und1161 wandte1994 sich um und2532 sprach2036 zu1909 dem Geist4151: Ich gebiete3853 dir4671 in1722 dem Namen3686 JEsu2424 Christi5547, daß du von575 ihr846 ausfahrest1831! Und2532 er846 fuhr aus1831 zu derselbigen Stunde5610.

19 And when her masters saw that the hope for their business was lost with her power, they seized Paul and Silas and beat them and brought them to the market place.

19 Da aber1161 ihre Herren2962 sahen1492, daß3754 die Hoffnung1680 ihres Genießes war1831 ausgefahren, nahmen sie846 Paulus3972 und2532 Silas4609, zogen1670 sie1949 auf1519 den Markt58 vor1909 die Obersten758

20 And they brought them before the soldiers and the city magistrates and said, These men are Jews, and they create disturbances in our city,

20 und2532 führeten sie846 zu den444 Hauptleuten4755 und sprachen2036: Diese3778 Menschen machen1613 unsere2257 Stadt4172 irre und sind5225 Juden2453

21 And they preach customs to us which are not lawful for us to accept and practice, because we are Romans.

21 und2532 verkündigen2605 eine Weise1485, welche3739 uns2254 nicht3756 ziemet anzunehmen3858 noch3761 zu tun4160, weil wir Römer4514 sind5607.

22 And a large crowd gathered against them. Then the soldiers stripped them of their clothes and gave command to scourge them.

22 Und2532 das Volk3793 ward erregt4911 wider2596 sie846. Und2532 die Hauptleute4755 ließen4048 ihnen die Kleider2440 abreißen und hießen2753 sie846 stäupen4463.

23 And when they had flogged them severely, they cast them into prison, charging the jailer to watch them carefully. Paul and Silas in prison.

23 Und5037 da sie2007 sie846 wohl4183 gestäupet hatten, warfen906 sie sie ins1519 Gefängnis5438 und geboten3853 dem Kerkermeister1200, daß er846 sie wohl806 bewahrete.

24 He, having received the charge, brought them in and put them into the inner chamber of the prison, and fastened their feet in the stocks.

24 Der nahm2983 solch5108 Gebot3852 an und2532 warf906 sie846 in1519 das3739 innerste2082 Gefängnis5438 und legte805 ihre846 Füße4228 in den Stock3586.

25 Now at midnight Paul and Silas prayed and glorified God; and the prisoners heard them.

25 Um2596 die Mitternacht3317 aber1161 beteten4336 Paulus3972 und2532 Silas4609 und1161 lobeten GOtt2316. Und es höreten sie846 die Gefangenen1198.

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 the bands of all were loosed.

26 Schnell869 aber1161 ward3916 ein großes3173 Erdbeben4578, also daß5620 sich bewegeten die Grundfesten2310 des Gefängnisses1201. Und5037 von Stund‘ an wurden1096 alle3956 Türen2374 aufgetan455 und aller3956 Bande1199 los447.

27 When the keeper of the prison awoke, and saw that the prison doors were open, he took a sword and would have killed himself, for he thought the prisoners had escaped.

27 Als aber1161 der Kerkermeister1200 aus dem Schlafe1853 fuhr und2532 sah die Türen2374 des Gefängnisses5438 aufgetan455, zog4685 er das1492 Schwert3162 aus und wollte3195 sich1096 selbst1438 erwürgen337; denn er meinete, die Gefangenen1198 wären entflohen1628.

28 But Paul cried with a loud voice and said to him, Do not harm yourself, for we are all here.

28 Paulus3972 aber1161 rief5455 laut3173 und sprach3004: Tue4238 dir4572 nichts3367 Übles2556; denn1063 wir sind2070 alle537 hier1759.

29 Then he lighted a lamp, and sprang in, trembling, and threw himself at the feet of Paul and Silas.

29 Er forderte154 aber1161 ein Licht5457 und2532 sprang hinein1530 und2532 ward1096 zitternd1790 und fiel4363 Paulus3972 und Silas4609 zu den Füßen

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

30 und2532 führete sie846 heraus1854 und sprach5346: Liebe Herren2962, was5101 soll1163 ich tun4160, daß3165 ich selig4982 werde?

31 And they said to him, Believe in our LORD Jesus Christ, and both you and your household will be saved.

31 Sie sprachen2036:. Glaube4100 an1909 den HErrn2962 JEsum2424 Christum5547, so2532 wirst du4771 und1161 dein4675 Haus3624 selig4982.

32 And they spoke to him the word of the LORD, and to all who were of his household.

32 Und2532 sie846 sagten2980 ihm das3956 Wort3056 des846 HErrn2962 und2532 allen, die in1722 seinem Hause3614 waren.

33 And he took them at that hour of the night and washed their wounds; and then was baptized in that very hour, he and all his household.

33 Und2532 er nahm3880 sie zu sich in1722 derselbigen Stunde5610 der1565 Nacht3571 und wusch3068 ihnen die Striemen ab; und er ließ sich taufen907 und alle3956 die Seinen alsobald3916.

34 And when he had brought them up into his house, he set food before them; and he and all the members of his household rejoiced, believing in God.

34 Und5037 führete sie321 in1519 sein846 Haus und2532 setzte ihnen3908 einen Tisch5132 und freuete sich848 mit seinem ganzen Hause3624, daß er846 an GOtt2316 gläubig4100 worden war.

35 In the morning, the soldiers sent the lictors to tell the prison warden to release those men.

35 Und1161 da es Tag2250 ward1096, sandten649 die1565 Hauptleute4755 Stadtdiener4465 und sprachen3004: Laß630 die Menschen444 gehen630!

36 And when the keeper of the prison heard this, he went in and told Paul, saying, The soldiers have sent orders to release you: now therefore depart, and go in peace.

36 Und1161 der Kerkermeister1200 verkündigte518 diese5128 Rede3056 Paulus: Die Hauptleute4755 haben hergesandt, daß4314 ihr los630 sein sollt. Nun3568 ziehet aus1831 und3767 gehet4198 hin649 mit1722 Frieden1515.

37 But Paul said to him, Not having committed any offense, they flogged us, Roman citizens, in the presence of the people, and they cast us into prison; and now do they let us out secretly? No verily; let them come themselves and fetch us out.

37 Paulus3972 aber1161 sprach5346 zu4314 ihnen846: Sie846 haben uns2248 ohne Recht und2532 Urteil178 öffentlich1219 gestäupet, die wir doch Römer sind5225, und1063 in1519 das Gefängnis5438 geworfen906 und sollten1544 uns2248 nun3568 heimlich2977 ausstoßen? Nicht3756 also, sondern235 lasset sie1194 selbst kommen2064 und uns2248 hinausführen1806.

38 And the lictors went and told the soliers these words which were told to them: and when they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens, they were afraid.

38 Die191 Stadtdiener4465 verkündigten312 diese5023 Worte4487 den Hauptleuten4755; und1161 sie fürchteten sich5399, da2532 sie höreten, daß3754 sie Römer4514 wären1526,

39 And they came to them and urged them to get out and depart from the city.

39 und2532 kamen2064 und2532 ermahneten sie846 und führeten sie heraus1831 und baten3870 sie, daß sie auszögen aus1806 der Stadt4172.

40 And they went out of the prison and entered into the house of Lydia where they saw the brethren and comforted them, and departed.

40 Da gingen1525 sie846 aus1831 dem Gefängnis5438 und1161 gingen1831 zu1519 der Lydia3070. Und2532 da sie die Brüder80 gesehen1492 hatten und2532 getröstet3870, zogen sie aus1537.
