| Acts 16:23 | And when they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, charging the (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) jailer to keep them securely, |
| Acts 16:24 | who, having received such a charge, put them into the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) inner prison and fastened their feet in the (to | τό | acc sg neut) stocks. |
| Acts 16:25 | About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) prisoners were listening to them. |
| Acts 16:26 | Suddenly there was a violent earthquake, so that the (ta | τά | acc pl neut) foundations of the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) prison were shaken; and immediately all the (hai | αἱ | nom pl fem) doors were opened and everyone’s chains were unfastened. |
| Acts 16:27 | When the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) jailer woke up and saw the (tas | τάς | acc pl fem) doors of the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) prison standing open, he drew his (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) sword and was about to kill himself, for he thought the (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) prisoners had escaped. |
| Acts 16:28 | But Paul called out in a loud voice, saying, “Do not harm yourself, for we are all here.” |
| Acts 16:29 | Then, calling for lights, the jailer rushed in and trembling with fear he fell down before Paul and Silas. |
| Acts 16:31 | And they (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) said, “Believe in the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.” |
| Acts 16:32 | And they spoke the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) word of the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) Lord to him, along with all who (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) were in his house. |
| Acts 16:33 | And taking them in that hour of the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) night, he washed their (tōn | τῶν | gen pl fem) wounds; then he was baptized at once, he and all his family. |
| Acts 16:34 | And when he had brought them up into his (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) house, he set food before them; and he rejoiced, having placed his faith in (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) God along with his entire household. |
| Acts 16:35 | But when it was day, the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) magistrates sent their (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) constables, saying, “Release those men.” |
| Acts 16:36 | And the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) jailer reported these words to Paul, saying, “The (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) magistrates have sent orders to release you. So depart now and go in peace.” |
| Acts 16:37 | But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men who are Roman citizens, and have thrown us into prison; and now would they send us away in secret? No indeed! They themselves must come and escort us out.” |
| Acts 16:38 | The (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) constables reported these words to the (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) magistrates. And they were afraid when they heard that they were Roman citizens. |
| Acts 16:39 | So they came and spoke to them in a friendly manner; and having taken them out, they asked them to leave the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) city. |
| Acts 16:40 | So when they had left the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) prison, they went to Lydia’s house; and when they saw the (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) brothers, they encouraged them and departed. |
| Acts 17:1 | Having passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, Paul and Silas came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) Jews. |
| Acts 17:2 | And according to Paul’s custom, he went to them and for three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl fem) Scriptures, |
| Acts 17:3 | explaining and demonstrating that it was necessary for the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) Messiah to suffer and to rise from the dead, and that, “This one is the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) Messiah, this (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) Jesus whom I am proclaiming to you.” |
| Acts 17:4 | And some of them were persuaded and cast their lot with Paul and Silas, both a great number of devout Greeks and not a few of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl fem) leading women. |
| Acts 17:5 | But the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) Jews, moved by envy, recruited certain wicked men of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) marketplace and, forming a mob, they set the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) city in an uproar. They attacked the (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) house of Jason, trying to bring them out to the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) people. |
| Acts 17:6 | But when they could not find them, they dragged Jason and some fellow believers before the (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) city authorities, shouting, “These men who (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) have turned the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) world upside down have come here too, |
| Acts 17:7 | and Jason has received them as guests; and all these men are acting contrary to the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl neut) decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.” |
| Acts 17:8 | And they stirred up the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) people and the (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) city authorities who heard these things. |
