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

But Peter continued knocking; and opening the door, they saw him, and were amazed.

But beckoning to them with his hand to be silent, he related how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go and tell these things to James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went to another place.

And he was highly displeased with the Tyrians and Sidonians; but they came to him with one accord, and having made Blastus the kings chamberlain their friend, sued for peace; because their country drew its nourishment from that of the king.

But the Jews stirred up the women of rank who worshipped God, and the chief men of the city, and raised a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them from their borders.

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

But the Jews that disbelieved stirred up and embittered the minds of the gentiles against the brethren.

But the disciples having gathered around him, he rose up, and came into the city. And the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

But when Paul and Barnabas had had no small dissension and debate with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain others of them, should go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders about this question.

But there rose up certain believers of the sect of the Pharisees, saying, It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.

But we believe that we shall be saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same manner as they.

but that we should write to them by letter to abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from that which hath been strangled, and from blood.

And this she did for many days. But Paul, being much displeased, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And it came out immediately.

But her masters seeing that the hope of their gain was gone, laid hold of Paul and Silas, and dragged them into the marketplace to the rulers;

But at midnight Paul and Silas praying, were singing praises to God; and the prisoners were listening to them.

But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm, for we are all here.

But Paul said to them, They have publicly beaten us uncondemned, although we are Romans, and have thrust us into prison; and now do they thrust us out secretly? No; but let them come themselves, and bring us out.

But the unbelieving Jews, taking with them certain bad men of the idlers in the marketplace, and gathering a crowd, set the city in an uproar; and having come to the house of Jason, they endeavored to bring them out to the people;

And they came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself entered the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.

but having taken leave of them, saying, I will return to you, if God will, he set sail from Ephesus.

And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue. But Aquila and Priscilla having heard him, took him to them, and set forth to him the way [of the Lord] more fully.

But when some were hardened, and believed not, but spoke evil of the way [of the Lord] before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, discoursing daily in the school of Tyrannus.

And the evil spirit answering said, Jesus I knew, and Paul I well know; but who are ye?

But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice for about two hours cried out, Great is Diana of the Ephesians!

But when the Recorder had quieted the multitude, he said, Men of Ephesus, who is there among men that doth not know that the city of the Ephesians is guardian of the great Diana, and of the image which fell down from Jupiter?

how I kept back nothing that was profitable, but have made it known to you, and have taught you publicly, and from house to house;

But we, finishing our voyage, came down from Tyre to Ptolemais; and having embraced the brethren, remained with them one day.

But when we heard this, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go to Jerusalem.

But they have been informed concerning thee, that thou teachest all the Jews who are among the gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children, nor to walk after the customs.

These take, and purify thyself with them, and pay the expenses for them, that they may shave their heads; and all will know that those things of which they have been informed concerning thee are nothing, but that thou thyself also walkest in observance of the Law.

But concerning the gentile believers, we have written to them and decided that they should observe no such thing, save only to abstain from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from what hath been strangled, and from fornication.

But one Ananias, a devout man according to the Law, well spoken of by all the Jews who dwelt there,

The chief captain answered, For a great sum I obtained this citizenship. And Paul said, But I was born a Roman.

But Paul, perceiving one part to be Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, cried aloud in the council, Brethren! I am a Pharisee, the son of Pharisees; for the hope of the resurrection of the dead I am now tried.

For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, and no angel or spirit; but the Pharisees affirm both.

And there arose a great clamor; and scribes of the party of the Pharisees arose, and contended, saying, We find nothing amiss in this man; but if a spirit hath spoken to him or an angel

But Pauls sisters son hearing of the plot went, and entering the castle, told Paul.

But do not thou yield to them; for there lie in wait for him more than forty men of them, who have bound themselves with an oath neither to eat nor drink till they have killed him; and they are now ready, looking for the promise from thee.

This man was taken by the Jews, and was about to be killed by them; but I came upon them with the soldiery, and rescued him, having learned that he was a Roman.

but I found him to be accused only on account of questions of their law, and to have nothing laid to his charge deserving death or bonds.

But on the morrow they left the horsemen to go on with him, and returned to the castle.

But Festus answered that Paul was in custody at Caesarea, and that he himself was going thither shortly.

But Festus, wishing to gain favor with the Jews, answered Paul and said, Art thou willing to go up to Jerusalem, and there be tried on these charges before me?

But Paul said, I stand at the judgmentseat of Caesar, where I ought to be tried. To the Jews I have done no wrong, as thou also very well knowest.

If indeed I am an offender, and have done anything deserving death, I refuse not to die; but if there be nothing in the charges which they bring against me, no man can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar.

but had against him certain questions of their own religion, and of one Jesus that was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.

But Paul having appealed to be kept in custody for the judgment of Augustus, I ordered him to be kept till I should send him up to Caesar.

But having found that he had done nothing deserving death, and he himself having appealed to Augustus, I determined to send him;

But arise and stand upon thy feet; for I have appeared to thee for this purpose, to prepare thee as a minister and a witness both of the things which thou sawest, and of those on account of which I will appear to thee;

but first to those in Damascus, and Jerusalem, and to all the country of Judaea, and then to the gentiles, I proclaimed that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance.
