Then the captain and some of the police went and took them, but not violently, for fear that they might be stoned by the people.

After this man, there was Judas of Galilee, at the time of the numbering, and some of the people went after him: he was put to death, and all his supporters were put to flight.

But some of those who were of the Synagogue named that of the Libertines, and some of the men of Cyrene and of Alexandria and those from Cilicia and Asia, had arguments with Stephen.

And the Ethiopian said to Philip, About whom are these words said by the prophet? about himself, or some other?

And while they were going on their way, they came to some water, and the Ethiopian said, See, here is water; why may I not have baptism?

And when he had taken food his strength came back. And for some days he kept with the disciples who were in Damascus.

Then, after some days, the Jews made an agreement together to put him to death:

And he was living in Joppa for some time with Simon, a leather-worker.

So he took them in for the night. And the day after, he went with them, taking some of the brothers from Joppa with him.

And he gave orders for them to have baptism in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they kept him with them for some days.

But some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, when they came to Antioch, gave the good news about the Lord Jesus to the Greeks.

But there was a division among the people of the town; some were on the side of the Jews and some on the side of the Apostles.

But some Jews came to that place from Antioch and Iconium, and got control over the people; and after stoning Paul, they had him pulled out of the town, taking him for dead.

And when they had made selection of some to be rulers in every church, and had given themselves to prayer and kept themselves from food, they put them into the care of the Lord in whom they had faith.

But some of the Pharisees, who were of the faith, got up and said, It is necessary for these to have circumcision and to keep the law of Moses.

And when there had been much discussion, Peter got up and said to them, My brothers, you have knowledge that some time back it was God's pleasure that by my mouth the good news might be given to the Gentiles so that they might have faith.

Because we have knowledge that some who went from us have been troubling you with their words, putting your souls in doubt; to whom we gave no such order;

And when they had been there for some time, they were sent back in peace by the brothers to those who had sent them.

And after some days, Paul said to Barnabas, Let us go back and see the brothers in every town where we have given the word of God, and see how they are.

And from there to Philippi, which is the most important town of Macedonia and a Roman colony: and we were there for some days.

And some of them had faith, and were joined to Paul and Silas; and a number of the God-fearing Greeks, and some of the chief women.

And when they were not able to get them, they took Jason and some of the brothers by force before the rulers of the town, crying, These men, who have made trouble all over the world have now come here;

And some of those who were supporters of the theories of the Epicureans and the Stoics, had a meeting with him. And some said, What is this talker of foolish words saying? And others, He seems to be a preacher of strange gods: because he was preaching of Jesus and his coming back from the dead.

Now on hearing about the coming back from death, some of them made sport of it, but others said, Let us go more fully into this another time.

But some men gave him their support: among whom was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

And Paul, after waiting some days, went away from the brothers and went by ship to Syria, Priscilla and Aquila being with him; and he had had his hair cut off in Cenchrea, for he had taken an oath.

And having been there for some time, he went through the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, making the disciples strong in the faith.

But because some of the people were hard-hearted and would not give hearing, saying evil words about the Way before the people, he went away from them, and kept the disciples separate, reasoning every day in the school of Tyrannus.

But some of the Jews who went from place to place driving out evil spirits, took it on themselves to make use of the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, I give you orders, by Jesus, whom Paul is preaching.

And some of the rulers of Asia, being his friends, sent to him, requesting him seriously not to put himself in danger by going into the theatre.

And some said one thing, and some another: for there was no order in the meeting; and most of them had no idea why they had come together.

And while we were waiting there for some days, a certain prophet, named Agabus, came down from Judaea.

And some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, taking a certain Mnason of Cyprus, one of the early disciples, in whose house we were to be living.

And straight away he took some armed men and went quickly down to them: and the Jews, seeing them, gave no more blows to Paul.

And some said one thing and some another, among the people: and as he was not able to get a knowledge of the facts because of the noise, he gave orders for Paul to be taken into the army building.

And there was a great outcry: and some of the scribes on the side of the Pharisees got up and took part in the discussion, saying, We see no evil in this man: what if he has had a revelation from an angel or a spirit?

But after some days, Felix came with Drusilla his wife, who was of the Jews by birth, and sent for Paul, and gave hearing to him about faith in Christ Jesus.

Now when some days had gone by, King Agrippa and Bernice came to Caesarea and went to see Festus.

And as they were there for some days, Festus gave them Paul's story, saying, There is a certain man here who was put in prison by Felix:

And the rest, some on boards and some on things from the ship. And so it came about that they all got safe to land.

But when Paul had got some sticks together and put them on the fire, a snake came out, because of the heat, and gave him a bite on the hand.

Now near that place there was some land, the property of the chief man of the island, who was named Publius; who very kindly took us into his house as his guests for three days.

Where we came across some of the brothers, who kept us with them for seven days; and so we came to Rome.

And some were in agreement with what he said, but some had doubts.

For I have a strong desire to see you, and to give you some grace of the spirit, so that you may be made strong;

You may be certain, my brothers, that it has frequently been in my mind to come to you (but till now I was kept from it), so that I might have some fruit from you in the same way as I have had it from the other nations.

And if some have no faith, will that make the faith of God without effect?

Let us not do evil so that good may come (a statement which we are falsely said by some to have made), because such behaviour will have its right punishment.

In the same way, there are at this present time some who are marked out by the selection of grace.

If in any way those who are of my flesh may be moved to envy, so that some of them may get salvation by me.

But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, an olive-tree of the fields, were put in among them, and were given a part with them in the root by which the olive-tree is made fertile,

But I have, in some measure, less fear in writing to you to put these things before you again, because of the grace which was given to me by God,

Whenever I go to Spain (for it is my hope to see you on my way, and to be sent on there by you, if first I may in some measure have been comforted by your company)--

That is, that some of you say, I am of Paul; some say, I am of Apollos; some say, I am of Cephas; and some say, I am Christ's.

Now some are full of pride, as if I was not coming to you.

And such were some of you; but you have been washed, you have been made holy, you have been given righteousness in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

Still, all men have not that knowledge: but some, being used till now to the image, are conscious that they are taking food which has been offered to the image; and because they are not strong in the faith, their minds are troubled.

To the feeble, I was as one who is feeble, so that they might have salvation: I have been all things to all men, so that some at least might have salvation.

Then do not go after false gods, as some of them did; as it is said in the holy Writings, After resting and feasting, the people got up to take their pleasure.

Again, let us not give way to the desires of the flesh, as some of them did, of whom twenty-three thousand came to their end in one day.

And let us not put the Lord to the test, as some of them did, and came to their death by snakes.

And do not say evil things against the Lord, as some of them did, and destruction overtook them.

But to every man some form of the Spirit's working is given for the common good.

And God has put some in the church, first, Apostles; second, prophets; third, teachers; then those with wonder-working powers, then those with the power of taking away disease, helpers, wise guides, users of strange tongues.

Then by more than five hundred brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, but some are sleeping;

Now if the good news says that Christ came back from the dead, how do some of you say that there is no coming back from the dead?

Be awake to righteousness and keep yourselves from sin; for some have no knowledge of God: I say this to put you to shame.

And when you put it into the earth, you do not put in the body which it will be, but only the seed, of grain or some other sort of plant;

For it is not my desire to see you now, on my way; because it is my hope to be with you for some time, if that is the Lord's pleasure.

But if anyone has been a cause of sorrow, he has been so, not to me only, but in some measure to all of you (I say this that I may not be over-hard on you).

Do we seem to be again attempting to put ourselves in the right? or have we need, as some have, of letters of approval to you or from you?

Yes, I make my request to you, so that when I am with you I may not have to make use of the authority which may be needed against some to whom we seem to be walking after the flesh.

For we will not make comparison of ourselves with some of those who say good things about themselves: but these, measuring themselves by themselves, and making comparison of themselves with themselves, are not wise.

But I have a fear, that in some way, as Eve was tricked by the deceit of the snake, your minds may be turned away from their simple and holy love for Christ.

Which is not another sort: only there are some who give you trouble, desiring to make changes in the good news of Christ.

And he gave some as Apostles, and some, prophets; and some, preachers of the good news; and some to give care and teaching;

Though some are preaching Christ out of envy and competition, others do it out of a good heart:

For it has come to our ears that there are some among you whose behaviour is uncontrolled, who do no work at all, but are over-interested in the business of others.

From which some have been turned away, giving themselves to foolish talking;

Keeping faith, and being conscious of well-doing; for some, by not doing these things, have gone wrong in relation to the faith:

But the Spirit says clearly that in later times some will be turned away from the faith, giving their minds to spirits of deceit, and the teachings of evil spirits,

For even now some are turned away to Satan.

The sins of some men are clearly seen, going before them to be judged; but with others, their sins go after them.

For the love of money is a root of all evil: and some whose hearts were fixed on it have been turned away from the faith, and been wounded with unnumbered sorrows.

Through which some, who gave their minds to it, have been turned away from the faith. Grace be with you.

Men whose ideas are all false, who say that the coming back from the dead has even now taken place, overturning the faith of some.

Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but others of wood and earth, and some which are honoured and some without honour.

By whom some families have been completely overturned; who take money for teaching things which are not right; these will have to be stopped.

Let us then, though we still have God's word that we may come into his rest, go in fear that some of you may be unable to do so.

So that as it is clear that some have to go in, and that the first hearers of the good news were not able to go in because they went against God's orders,

Not giving up our meetings, as is the way of some, but keeping one another strong in faith; and all the more because you see the day coming near.

Because God had kept some better thing for us, so that it was not possible for them to become complete without us.

Looking with care to see that no man among you in his behaviour comes short of the grace of God; for fear that some bitter root may come up to be a trouble to you, and that some of you may be made unclean by it;

Take care to keep open house: because in this way some have had angels as their guests, without being conscious of it.

Wives, be ruled by your husbands; so that even if some of them give no attention to the word, their hearts may be changed by the behaviour of their wives,

The Lord is not slow in keeping his word, as he seems to some, but he is waiting in mercy for you, not desiring the destruction of any, but that all may be turned from their evil ways.

And as he said in all his letters, which had to do with these things; in which are some hard sayings, so that, like the rest of the holy Writings, they are twisted by those who are uncertain and without knowledge, to the destruction of their souls.

It gave me great joy to see some of your children walking in the true way, even as we were ordered to do by the Father.

For it gave me great joy when some of the brothers came and gave witness that you had the true faith and were walking in the true way.

And to some give salvation, pulling them out of the fire; and on some have mercy with fear, hating even the clothing which is made unclean by the flesh.
