And, daily giving attendance with one intent in the temple and, at home, breaking bread, they were partaking of food with exultation and singleness of heart;

Now, Peter and John, were going up into the temple, for the hour of prayer - the ninth;

And, a certain man, who had been, lame from his mother's womb, was being carried, - whom they used to lay daily at the door of the temple - the door called Beautiful, that he might ask alms of them who were entering into the temple:

Who, seeing Peter and John about to enter into the temple, was requesting to receive, an alms.

And, leaping forward, he stood and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking and leaping and praising God.

And they began to recognise him, that, the same, was he who, for the alms, used to sit at the Beautiful Gate of the temple; - and they were filled with amazement and transport at what had happened unto him.

But, as they were speaking unto the people, the High-priests and the Captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them,

Be going your way, and, taking your stand, be speaking, in the temple, unto the people, all the declarations of this Life.

Now, when they heard this, they entered, under the dawn, into the temple, and began teaching. And the High-priest and they who were with him, arriving, called together the high-council, and all the senate of the sons of Israel; and sent off unto the prison, to have them brought.

Now, when both the captain of the temple and the High-priests heard these words, they were utterly at a loss concerning them - what perhaps this might come to.

But some one, entering, brought tidings unto them - Lo! the men whom ye put in the prison, are in the temple, standing, and teaching the people!

And, every day in the temple, and at home, they ceased not to be teaching, and telling the good news as to the Anointed Jesus.

And, not only is there danger that this our heritage into ill-repute may come, but even that the temple, of the great Goddess Diana, for nothing, may be counted; also that, even on the point of being pulled down, may be Her Majesty, whom, all Asia and the habitable world, do worship.

Howbeit the town-clerk, having calmed the multitude, saith - Ephesians! why, who is there of mankind that doth not acknowledge the city of Ephesians to be temple-keeper of the Great Diana, and of the imagethat fell from Jupiter?

For ye have brought these men, neither as temple-robbers, nor as defaming our goddess.

Then Paul, taking unto him the men, on the next day, with them, being purified, began entering into the temple to declare the filling up of the days of the purification - until, the offering, had been presented for each one of them.

When, however, the seven days were on the point of being concluded, the Jews from Asia, observing him in the temple, began to urge-on all the multitude, and thrust upon them their hands,

crying out - Israelites! be giving help! This, is the man who, against the people, and the law, and this place, is teaching, all men everywhere; furthermore, even Greeks, hath he brought into the temple, and hath profaned this holy place.

For they had before seen Trophimus, the Ephesian, in the city along with him, whom they were supposing, Paul, had brought, into the temple.

And the whole city was set in motion, and there took place a running together of the people, and, laying hold of Paul, they proceeded to drag him outside the temple, and, straightway, the doors were made fast.

And it came to pass, when had returned unto Jerusalem, and was praying in the temple, that I came to be in a trance,

who also attempted to desecrate even, the temple, whom we also seized,

and neither, in the temple, found they me, with any one, disputing, or causing, a halt, of the multitude, either in the synagogues or throughout the city, -

Now, after many years, intending to do, alms, unto my nation, I arrived, - also to present offerings; among which they found me, purified in the temple, not with a multitude, nor with tumult;

Paul saying in defence - Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar, have I in anything sinned.

Because of these things, Jews seized me in the temple, and were attempting to slay me with their own hands.
