18	New English Bible (New Testament)	Passage	New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

24	NOW THERE ARRIVED at Ephesus a Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by birth, an eloquent man, Or: a learned man. powerful in his use of the scriptures.	Apollos Preaches at Ephesus Ac.18.24-28	Ἰουδαῖος δέ τις Ἀπολλῶς ὀνόματι, Ἀλεξανδρεὺς τῷ γένει, ἀνὴρ λόγιος, κατήντησεν εἰς Ἔφεσον, δυνατὸς ὢν ἐν ταῖς γραφαῖς.
25	He had been instructed in the way of the Lord and was full of spiritual fervour; and in his discourses he taught accurately the facts about Jesus, Some witnesses read: about the Lord. though he knew only John's baptism.		οὗτος ἦν κατηχημένος τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ κυρίου, καὶ ζέων τῷ πνεύματι ἐλάλει καὶ ἐδίδασκεν ἀκριβῶς τὰ περὶ τοῦ Ἰησοῦ, ἐπιστάμενος μόνον τὸ βάπτισμα Ἰωάννου.
26	He now began to speak boldly in the synagogue, where Priscilla and Aquila heard him; they took him in hand and expounded the new way Some witnesses read: the way of God. to him in greater detail.		οὗτός τε ἠρξατο παρρησιάζεσθαι ἐν τῇ συναγωγῇ· ἀκούσαντες δὲ αὐτοῦ Πρίσκιλλα καὶ Ἀκύλας προσελάβοντο αὐτὸν καὶ ἀκριβέστερον αὐτῷ ἐξέθεντο τὴν ὁδὸν τοῦ θεοῦ.
27	Finding that he wished to go across to Achaia, the brotherhood gave him their support, and wrote to the congregation there to make him welcome. From the time of his arrival, he was very helpful to those who had by God's grace become believers;		βουλομένου δὲ αὐτοῦ διελθεῖν εἰς τὴν Ἀχαΐαν προτρεψάμενοι οἱ ἀδελφοὶ ἐγραψαν τοῖς μαθηταῖς ἀποδέξασθαι αὐτόν· ὃς παραγενόμενος συνεβάλετο πολὺ τοῖς πεπιστευκόσιν διὰ τῆς χα ριτος·
28	for he strenuously confuted the Jews, demonstrating publicly from the scriptures that the Messiah is Jesus.		εὐτόνως γὰρ τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις διακατηλέγχετο δημοσίᾳ ἐπιδεικνὺς διὰ τῶν γραφῶν εἶναι τὸν Χριστὸν, Ἰησοῦν.
19 1	While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul travelled through the inland regions till he came to Ephesus.	Paul at Ephesus Ac.19.1-10	Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ τὸν Ἀπολλῶ εἶναι ἐν Κορίνθῳ Παῦλον διελθόντα τὰ ἀνωτερικὰ μέρη ελθεῖν εἰς Ἔφεσον καὶ εὑρεῖν τινας μαθητάς,
2	There he found a number of converts, to whom he said, 'Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became believers?' 'No,' they replied, 'we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.'		εἶπέν τε πρὸς αὐτούς, Εἰ πνεῦμα ἀγιον ἐλάβετε πιστεύσαντες; οἱ δὲ πρὸς αὐτόν, Ἀλλ' οὐδ' εἰ Πνεῦμα ἀγιον ἐστιν ἠκούσαμεν.
3	He said, 'Then what baptism were you given?' 'John's baptism', they answered.		εἶπέν τε, Εἰς τί οὖν ἐβαπτίσθητὲ οἱ δὲ εἶπαν, Εἰς τὸ Ἰωάννου βάπτισμα.
4	Paul then said, 'The baptism that John gave was a baptism in token of repentance, and he told the people to put their trust in one who was to come after him, that is, in Jesus.'		εἶπεν δὲ Παῦλος, Ἰωάννης ἐβάπτισεν βάπτισμα μετανοίας, τῷ λαῷ λέγων εἰς τὸν ἐρχόμενον μετ' αὐτὸν ἵνα πιστεύσωσιν, τοῦτ' ἐστιν εἰς τὸν Ἰησοῦν.
5	On hearing this they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus;		ἀκούσαντες δὲ ἐβαπτίσθησαν εἰς τὸ ὀνομα τοῦ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ·
6	and when Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them and they spoke in tongues of ecstasy and prophesied.		καὶ ἐπιθέντος αὐτοῖς τοῦ Παύλου χεῖρας ἦλθε τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἀγιον ἐπ' αὐτούς, ἐλάλουν τε γλώσσαις καὶ ἐπροφήτευον.
7	Altogether they were about a dozen men.		ἦσαν δὲ οἱ πάντες ἀνδρες ὡσεὶ δώδεκα.
8	During the next three months he attended the synagogue and, using argument and persuasion, spoke boldly and freely about the kingdom of God.		Εἰσελθὼν δὲ εἰς τὴν συναγωγὴν ἐπαρρησιάζετο ἐπὶ μῆνας τρεῖς διαλεγόμενος καὶ πείθων περὶ τῆς βασιλείας τοῦ θεοῦ.
9	But when some proved obdurate and would not believe, speaking evil of the new way before the whole congregation, he left them, withdrew his converts, and continued to hold discussions daily in the lecture-hall of Tyrannus.		ὡς δέ τινες ἐσκληρύνοντο καὶ ἠπείθουν κακολογοῦντες τὴν ὁδὸν ἐνώπιον τοῦ πλήθους, ἀποστὰς ἀπ' αὐτῶν ἀφώρισεν τοὺς μαθητάς, καθ' ἡμέραν διαλεγόμενος ἐν τῇ σχολῇ Τυράννου.
10	This went on for two years, with the result that the whole population of the province of Asia, both Jews and Gentiles, heard the word of the Lord.		τοῦτο δὲ ἐγένετο ἐπὶ ἐτη δύο, ὡστε πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν Ἀσίαν ἀκοῦσαι τὸν λόγον τοῦ κυρίου, Ἰουδαίους τε καὶ Ἑλληνας.
11	And through Paul God worked singular miracles:	The Sons of Sceva Ac.19.11-20	Δυνάμεις τε οὐ τὰς τυχούσας ὁ θεὸς ἐποίει διὰ τῶν χειρῶν Παύλου,
12	when handkerchiefs and scarves which had been in contact with his skin were carried to the sick, they were rid of their diseases and the evil spirits came out of them.		ὡστε καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς ἀσθενοῦντας ἀποφέρεσθαι ἀπὸ τοῦ χρωτὸς αὐτοῦ σουδάρια ἢ σιμικίνθια καὶ ἀπαλλάσσεσθαι ἀπ' αὐτῶν τὰς νόσους, τά τε πνεύματα τὰ πονηρὰ ἐκπορεύεσθαι.
13	But some strolling Jewish exorcists tried their hand at using the name of the Lord Jesus on those possessed by evil spirits; they would say, 'I adjure you by Jesus whom Paul proclaims.'		ἐπεχείρησαν δέ τινες καὶ τῶν περιερχομένων Ἰουδαίων ἐξορκιστῶν ὀνομάζειν ἐπὶ τοὺς ἐχοντας τὰ πνεύματα τὰ πονηρὰ τὸ ὀνομα τοῦ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ λέγοντες, Ὁρκίζω ὑμᾶς τὸν ἰησο ῦν ὃν Παῦλος κηρύσσει.
14	There were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who were using this method,		ἦσαν δέ τινος Σκευᾶ Ἰουδαίου ἀρχιερέως ἑπτὰ υἱοὶ τοῦτο ποιοῦντες.
15	when the evil spirit answered back and said, 'Jesus I acknowledge, and I know about Paul, but who are you?'		ἀποκριθὲν δὲ τὸ Πνεῦμα τὸ πονηρὸν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Τὸν μὲν Ἰησοῦν γινώσκω καὶ τὸν Παῦλον ἐπίσταμαι, ὑμεῖς δὲ τίνες ἐστέ;
16	And the man with the evil spirit flew at them, overpowered them all, and handled them with such violence that they ran out of the house stripped and battered.		καὶ ἐφαλόμενος ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἐπ' αὐτοὺς ἐν ᾧ ἦν τὸ Πνεῦμα τὸ πονηρὸν κατακυριεύσας ἀμφοτέρων ἰσχυσεν κατ' αὐτῶν, ὡστε γυμνοὺς καὶ τετραυματισμένους ἐκφυγεῖν ἐκ τοῦ οἰκου ἐκείνου.
17	This became known to everybody in Ephesus, whether Jew or Gentile; they were all awestruck, and the name of the Lord Jesus gained in honour.		τοῦτο δὲ ἐγένετο γνωστὸν πᾶσιν Ἰουδαίοις τε καὶ Ἑλλησιν τοῖς κατοικοῦσιν τὴν Ἔφεσον, καὶ ἐπέπεσεν φόβος ἐπὶ πάντας αὐτούς, καὶ ἐμεγαλύνετο τὸ ὀνομα τοῦ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ.
18	Moreover many of those who had become believers came and openly confessed that they had been using magical spells.		πολλοί τε τῶν πεπιστευκότων ἠρχοντο ἐξομολογούμενοι καὶ ἀναγγέλλοντες τὰς πράξεις αὐτῶν.
19	And a good many of those who formerly practised magic collected their books and burnt them publicly. The total value was reckoned up and it came to fifty thousand pieces of silver.		ἱκανοὶ δὲ τῶν τὰ περίεργα πραξάντων συνενέγκαντες τὰς βίβλους κατέκαιον ἐνώπιον πάντων· καὶ συνεψήφισαν τὰς τιμὰς αὐτῶν καὶ εὗρον ἀργυρίου μυριάδας πέντε.
20	In such ways the word of the Lord showed its power, spreading more and more widely and effectively.		Οὑτως κατὰ κράτος τοῦ κυρίου ὁ λόγος ηὐξανεν καὶ ἰσχυεν.
21	When things had reached this stage, Paul made up his mind Or: Paul, led by the Spirit, resolved ... to visit Macedonia and Achaia and then go on to Jerusalem; and he said, 'After I have been there, I must see Rome also.'	The Riot at Ephesus Ac.19.21-40	Ὡς δὲ ἐπληρώθη ταῦτα, ἐθετο ὁ Παῦλος ἐν τῷ πνεύματι διελθὼν τὴν Μακεδονίαν καὶ Ἀχαΐαν πορεύεσθαι εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα, εἰπὼν ὅτι Μετὰ τὸ γενέσθαι με ἐκεῖ δεῖ με καὶ Ῥώμην ἰδεῖν.
