And being assembled with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard from me.

For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days hence.

And he said to them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

But ye shall receive power after the Holy Spirit is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses to me, both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and to the uttermost part of the earth.

But Peter standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Ye men of Judea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and hearken to my words:

For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.

But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel,

For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he saith himself, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,

Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have I give thee: in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.

But ye denied the Holy One, and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted to you,

But those things which God before had shown by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.

And they laid hands on them, and put them in custody to the next day: for it was now evening.

But many of them who heard the word, believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.

But when they had commanded them to withdraw from the council, they conferred among themselves,

But that it may spread no further among the people, let us strictly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.

But Peter and John answered and said to them, Whether it is right in the sight of God to hearken to you rather than to God, judge ye.

For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.

And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart, and of one soul: neither said any of them that aught of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.

But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,

But Peter said, Ananias, Why hath Satan filled thy heart to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back part of the price of the land?

While it remained, was it not thy own? and after it was sold, was it not in thy own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thy heart? thou hast not lied to men, but to God.

And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.

And laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.

But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison-doors, and brought them forth, and said,

And when they heard that, they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.

But when the officers came, and found them not in the prison, they returned, and told,

Saying, The prison truly we found shut with all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within.

Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.

Then stood up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little time.

But if it is from God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.

But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.

And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him,

But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.

And were carried over into Sychem, and laid in the sepulcher that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor the father of Sychem.

But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,

For he supposed his brethren to understand that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.

But he that did his neighbor wrong, thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?

Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.

Whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,

But Solomon built him a house.

But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked up steadfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,

But there was a certain man called Simon, who before in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one:

But when they believed Philip, preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized both men and women.

But Peter said to him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.

But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through, he preached in all the cities, till he came to Cesarea.

And the men who journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.

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.

But the Lord said to him, Go, for he is a chosen vessel to me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel.

But all that heard him were amazed, and said, Is not this he that destroyed them who called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?

But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ.

But their laying in wait, was known to Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him.

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

But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared to 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.

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

And there he found a certain man named Eneas, who had kept his bed eight years, and was sick with the palsy.

And Peter said to him, Eneas, Jesus Christ healeth thee: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.

But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning to the body, said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.

And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,

But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.

But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up: I myself also am a man.

And he said to them, Ye know that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come to one of another nation; but God hath shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

Not to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before by God, even to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.

But Peter rehearsed the matter from the beginning, and expounded it by order to them, saying,

But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth.

But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.

And the Spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting. Moreover, these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered into the man's house:

Then I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.

Now they who were dispersed upon the persecution that arose about Stephen traveled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but to the Jews only.

And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after the passover to bring him forth to the people.

Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing by the church to God for him.

And he went out, and followed him, and knew not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision.

And when she knew Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told that Peter stood before the gate

And they said to her, Thou art insane. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then they said, It is his angel.

But Peter continued knocking. And when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished.

But he beckoning to them with the hand to hold their peace, declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go, show these things to James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.

And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judea to Cesarea, and there abode.

And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon. But they came with one accord to him, and having made Blastus the king's chamberlain their friend, desired peace, because their country was nourished by the king's country.

But the word of God grew and multiplied.

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

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

And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not he. But behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.

And though they found no cause of death in him, yet they desired Pilate that he should be put to death.

But God raised him from the dead:

But he whom God raised again, saw no corruption.

But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spoke against those things which were uttered by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.

Then Paul and Barnabas became bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you: but seeing ye reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.

But the Jews stirred up the devout and honorable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their borders.

But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.

But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil-affected against the brethren.

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

But as the disciples stood around him, he rose, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

But there rose certain of the sect of the Pharisees, who believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.

And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.

Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

But we believe, that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, we shall be saved even as they.

But that we write to them that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from lewdness, and from things strangled, and from blood.

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

Then he came to Derbe and Lystra: and behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a certain woman who was a Jewess, and believed, but his father was a Greek.

After they had come to Mysia, they essayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not.
