Read the New Testament in 24 Weeks

1 I wrote poieō the ho first prōtos book logos, Theophilus Theophilos, about peri everything pas that hos Jesus Iēsous began archō · ho to do poieō and kai to teach didaskō, ² until achri the hos day hēmera when, having given commands entellō through dia the Holy hagios Spirit pneuma to the ho apostles apostolos he had chosen eklegomai, he was taken analambanō up ; ³ to whom hos also kai he presented paristēmi himself heautou alive zaō after meta · ho his autos passion paschō by en many polys proofs tekmērion, being seen optanomai by them autos over dia a period of forty tesserakonta days hēmera and kai telling legō them what ho concerns peri the ho kingdom basileia of ho God theos. ⁴ · kai While he was synalizō with them, he ordered parangellō them autos not mē to depart chōrizō from apo Jerusalem Hierosolyma, but alla to await perimenō the ho promise epangelia of the ho Father patēr, which hos, he said, “ you heard akouō from me egō; ⁵ for hoti John Iōannēs baptized baptizō with water hydōr, but de you hymeis will be baptized baptizō with en the Holy hagios Spirit pneuma not ou many polys days hēmera from meta now houtos.”

⁶ So oun when they ho had come synerchomai together , they asked erōtaō him autos, saying legō, “ Lord kyrios, is this houtos the ho time chronos when you will restore apokathistēmi the ho kingdom basileia to ho Israel Israēl?” ⁷ But de he said legō to pros them autos, “ It is eimi not ou for you hymeis to know ginōskō the times chronos or ē seasons kairos that hos the ho Father patēr has set tithēmi by en · ho his idios own authority exousia. ⁸ But alla you will receive lambanō power dynamis when the ho Holy hagios Spirit pneuma has come eperchomai upon epi you hymeis, and kai you will be eimi my egō witnesses martys both te in en Jerusalem Ierousalēm and kai in en all pas · ho Judea Ioudaia and kai Samaria Samareia, and kai to heōs the end eschatos of the ho earth gē.” ⁹ And kai when he had said legō these houtos words, while they autos were watching blepō, he was lifted epairō up and kai a cloud nephelē took hypolambanō him autos away from apo · ho their autos eyes ophthalmos. ¹⁰ And kai while hōs they were eimi gazing atenizō into eis the ho sky ouranos, as he autos was going poreuō, · kai behold idou, two dyo men anēr stood paristēmi by them autos in en white leukos robes esthēs, ¹¹ and kai said legō, “ Men anēr of Galilee Galilaios, why tis do you stand histēmi looking emblepō up into eis the ho sky ouranos? This houtos · ho Jesus Iēsous, who ho was taken analambanō up from apo you hymeis into eis · ho heaven ouranos, will come erchomai in the same houtōs way tropos as hos you saw theaomai him autos going poreuō into eis · ho heaven ouranos.”

¹² Then tote they returned hypostrephō to eis Jerusalem Ierousalēm from apo a hill oros · ho called kaleō “The Mount of Olives elaiōn,” which hos is eimi near engys Jerusalem Ierousalēm, a Sabbath sabbaton day’s walk away echō. ¹³ And kai when hote they had entered eiserchomai the city, they went up anabainō to eis the ho upper hyperōon room , where hou they were eimi lodging katamenō; · ho Peter Petros and kai John Iōannēs and kai James Iakōbos and kai Andrew Andreas, Philip Philippos and kai Thomas Thōmas, Bartholomew Bartholomaios and kai Matthew, James Iakōbos the son of Alphaeus Halphaios and kai Simon Simōn the ho Zealot zēlōtēs and kai Judas Ioudas the son of James Iakōbos. ¹⁴ These houtos all pas were eimi devoting proskartereō themselves with a single homothumadon purpose to ho prayer proseuchē, with syn the women gynē and kai Mary Mariam, the ho mother mētēr of ho Jesus Iēsous, and kai with ho his autos brothers adelphos.

¹⁵ And kai in en · ho those houtos days hēmera Peter Petros stood anistēmi up in en the midst mesos of the ho brothers adelphos (a crowd ochlos of people onoma, about hōsei a hundred hekaton and twenty eikosi, had gathered together epi), · ho and said legō, ¹⁶ “ My brothers anēr, it was necessary dei for the ho Scripture graphē to be fulfilled plēroō, which hos the Holy hagios Spirit pneuma spoke beforehand · ho · ho by dia the mouth stoma of David Dauid concerning peri Judas Ioudas, who ho became ginomai guide hodēgos to those ho who arrested syllambanō Jesus Iēsous. ¹⁷ For hoti he was eimi numbered katarithmeō among en us hēmeis and kai received lanchanō his ho allotted klēros share of ho this houtos ministry diakonia.” ¹⁸ ( Now oun this houtos man bought ktaomai a field chōrion with ek the reward misthos of his ho unjust adikia deed , and kai falling ginomai headfirst prēnēs he burst lakaō open in the middle mesos and kai all pas his autos intestines splanchnon gushed ekchunnomai out . · ho ¹⁹ And kai it became ginomai known gnōstos to all pas the ho inhabitants katoikeō of Jerusalem Ierousalēm, so hōste that the ho field chōrion was called kaleō in ho their autos own idios language dialektos Akeldama, that houtos is eimi, “ Field chōrion of Blood haima.”) ²⁰ “ For gar it is written graphō in en the Book biblos of Psalms psalmos, ‘ Let his autos house epaulis become ginomai · ho deserted erēmos, and kai let there be eimi no mē · ho one living katoikeō in en it autos’; and kai ‘ Let lambanō another heteros take over lambanō · ho his autos responsibilities episkopē.’ ²¹ It is necessary dei, therefore oun, that of the ho men anēr who have accompanied synerchomai us hēmeis during en all pas the time chronos in which hos the ho Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous came eiserchomai in and kai went exerchomai out among epi us hēmeis, ²² beginning archō from apo the ho baptism baptisma of John Iōannēs until heōs the ho day hēmera on which hos he was taken analambanō up from apo us hēmeis—that one heis of these houtos become ginomai with syn us hēmeis a witness martys of ho his autos resurrection anastasis.” ²³ So kai they proposed histēmi two dyo, Joseph Iōsēph · ho called kaleō Barsabbas Barsabbas ( who hos was called epikaleō Justus Ioustos), and kai Matthias Maththias. ²⁴ And kai they prayed proseuchomai and said legō, “ You sy, Lord kyrios, the one who knows kardiognōstēs the hearts of all pas, show anadeiknymi which hos one heis of ek these houtos two dyo you have chosen eklegomai · ho ²⁵ to take lambanō the ho place topos of ho this houtos ministry diakonia and kai apostleship apostolē, from apo which hos Judas Ioudas turned parabainō aside to go poreuō to eis his own idios · ho place topos.” · ho ²⁶ And kai they cast didōmi lots klēros for them autos, and kai the ho lot klēros fell piptō on epi Matthias Maththias, and kai he was counted synkatapsēphizomai with meta the ho eleven hendeka apostles apostolos.

2 · kai When en · ho the ho day hēmera of ho Pentecost pentēkostē arrived symplēroō, they were eimi all pas together homou in epi the ho same autos place . ² And kai suddenly aphnō from ek heaven ouranos there came ginomai · ho a sound ēchos like hōsper a violent biaios blast pherō of wind pnoē, and kai it filled plēroō the ho whole holos house oikos where hou they were eimi sitting kathēmai. ³ And kai there appeared horaō to them autos tongues glōssa spreading diamerizō out like hōsei fire pyr, and kai one came to rest kathizō on epi each hekastos one heis of them autos. ⁴ And kai they were all pas filled pimplēmi with the Holy hagios Spirit pneuma, and kai they began archō to speak laleō with other heteros tongues glōssa as kathōs the ho Spirit pneuma gave didōmi them autos utterance apophthengomai.

⁵ Now de there were eimi living katoikeō in eis Jerusalem Ierousalēm Jews Ioudaios, devout eulabēs men anēr from apo every pas nation ethnos · ho under hypo · ho heaven ouranos. ⁶ But de when this houtos sound phōnē was heard ginomai · ho the ho crowd plēthos gathered synerchomai, and kai they were perplexed syncheō, because hoti each hekastos one heis was hearing akouō them autos speak laleō in ho his idios own language dialektos. ⁷ And de they were amazed existēmi and kai wondered thaumazō, saying legō, “ Are eimi not ou all hapas these houtos who ho are speaking laleō Galileans Galilaios? ⁸ And kai how pōs do we hēmeis hear akouō, each hekastos of us hēmeis in ho his idios own language dialektos to en which hos he was born gennaō? ⁹ Parthians Parthoi and kai Medes Mēdos and kai Elamites Elamitēs and kai · ho residents katoikeō of ho Mesopotamia Mesopotamia, Judea Ioudaia and kai Cappadocia Kappadokia, Pontus Pontos and kai · ho Asia Asia, ¹⁰ Phrygia Phrygia and kai Pamphylia Pamphylia, Egypt Aigyptos and kai the ho parts meros of ho Libya Libyē · ho near kata Cyrene Kyrēnē, and kai · ho visitors epidēmeō from Rome Rhōmaios, ¹¹ Jews Ioudaios and kai proselytes prosēlytos, Cretans Krēs and kai Arabians Araps— we hear akouō them autos telling laleō in ho our hēmeteros own tongues glōssa the ho mighty megaleios works of ho God theos.” ¹² And de all pas were amazed existēmi and kai perplexed diaporeō, saying legō to pros one allos another allos, “ What tis does thelō this houtos mean eimi?” ¹³ But de others heteros mocking diachleuazō said legō, “ They are eimi filled with mestoō new gleukos wine .”

¹⁴ But de Peter Petros, taking his stand histēmi · ho with syn the ho eleven hendeka, lifted epairō up · ho his autos voice phōnē and kai addressed apophthengomai them autos, “ Men anēr of Judea Ioudaios and kai all pas you ho who live katoikeō in Jerusalem Ierousalēm, let eimi this houtos be eimi known gnōstos to you hymeis, and kai give enōtizomai ear to · ho my egō words rhēma. ¹⁵ For gar these men houtos are not ou, as hōs you hymeis suppose hypolambanō, drunk methyō, since gar it is eimi only the third tritos hour hōra of the ho day hēmera. ¹⁶ But alla this houtos is eimi what ho was spoken legō of through dia the ho prophet prophētēs Joel Iōēl: ¹⁷ ‘ And kai it will be eimi in en the ho last eschatos days hēmera,’ declares legō · ho God theos, ‘that I will pour ekcheō out · ho my egō Spirit pneuma on epi all pas flesh sarx, and kai your hymeis sons hyios and kai your hymeis daughters thugatēr will prophesy prophēteuō, · ho · ho and kai · ho your hymeis young neaniskos men will see horaō visions horasis, and kai · ho your hymeis old presbyteros men will dream enypniazomai dreams enypnion. ¹⁸ Even kai on epi · ho my egō male servants and kai on epi · ho my egō female doulē servants in en · ho those ekeinos days hēmera I will pour ekcheō out · ho my egō Spirit pneuma, and kai they will prophesy prophēteuō. ¹⁹ And kai I will show didōmi wonders teras in en the ho heavens ouranos above anō and kai signs sēmeion on epi the ho earth gē below katō, blood haima, and kai fire pyr, and kai smoky kapnos vapor atmis. ²⁰ The ho sun hēlios will be turned metastrephō into eis darkness skotos and kai the ho moon selēnē into eis blood haima, before prin the coming erchomai of the ho great megas and kai glorious day hēmera of the Lord kyrios. ²¹ And kai it shall be eimi that everyone pas who hos calls epikaleō upon the ho name onoma of the Lord kyrios will be saved sōzō.’

²² “ Men anēr of Israel Israēlitēs, hear akouō · ho these houtos words logos: Jesus Iēsous of ho Nazareth Nazōraios, a man anēr attested apodeiknymi to eis you hymeis by apo · ho God theos with mighty dynamis works and kai wonders teras and kai signs sēmeion that hos God theos did poieō through dia him autos · ho in en your hymeis midst mesos, as kathōs you yourselves autos know oida— ²³ this houtos Jesus, delivered up ekdotos according to the ho determined horizō purpose boulē and kai foreknowledge prognōsis of ho God theos, you anaireō, at dia the hands cheir of those outside anomos the law , executed anaireō by nailing prospēgnymi him to a cross ; ²⁴ whom hos · ho God theos raised anistēmi up , loosing lyō the ho pangs ōdin of ho death thanatos, as kathoti it was eimi not ou possible dynatos for him autos to be held krateō by hypo it autos. ²⁵ For gar David Dauid says legō regarding eis him autos, ‘ I foresaw prooraō the ho Lord kyrios before enōpion me egō always dia pas, for hoti he is eimi at ek my egō right dexios hand that hina I may not mē be shaken saleuō; ²⁶ on dia account of this houtos my egō heart kardia rejoiced euphrainō, · ho and kai my egō tongue glōssa was glad agalliaō; · ho moreover eti de my egō flesh sarx also kai · ho will dwell kataskēnoō in epi hope elpis. ²⁷ For hoti you will not ou abandon enkataleipō · ho my egō soul psychē to eis Hades hadēs, or oude allow didōmi · ho your sy Holy hosios One to see corruption diaphthora. ²⁸ You have made known gnōrizō to me egō the paths hodos of life zōē; you will make me egō full plēroō of joy euphrosynē with meta · ho your sy presence prosōpon.’ ²⁹ My brothers anēr, I can speak legō to pros you hymeis confidently meta parrēsia about peri the ho patriarch patriarchēs David Dauid, that hoti he is both kai dead teleutaō and kai buried thaptō and kai · ho his autos tomb mnēma is eimi with en us hēmeis to achri · ho this houtos day hēmera. ³⁰ Therefore oun being hyparchō a prophet prophētēs, and kai knowing oida that hoti God theos promised omnyō him autos with an oath horkos · ho that he would place kathizō one of his descendants ek · ho on epi · ho his autos throne thronos, ³¹ he foresaw prooraō and spoke laleō about peri the ho resurrection anastasis of the ho Christ Christos, that hoti he was not oute abandoned enkataleipō to eis Hades hadēs, nor oute did · ho his autos flesh sarx see corruption diaphthora. ³² This houtos · ho Jesus Iēsous God theos raised anistēmi up , · ho of which hos we hēmeis all pas are eimi witnesses martys. ³³ So then oun, exalted hypsoō at the ho right dexios hand of ho God theos, and having received lambanō from para the ho Father patēr the ho promise epangelia of the ho Holy hagios Spirit pneuma, · ho he has poured ekcheō out this houtos that hos you hymeis are both kai seeing blepō and kai hearing akouō. ³⁴ For gar David Dauid did not ou ascend anabainō into eis the ho heavens ouranos, but de he himself autos says legō, ‘ The ho Lord kyrios said legō to ho my egō Lord kyrios, Sit kathēmai at ek my egō right dexios hand , ³⁵ until heōs an I make tithēmi · ho your sy enemies echthros a footstool hypopodion for ho your sy feet pous.’ ³⁶ So oun let ginōskō the entire pas house oikos of Israel Israēl know ginōskō for certain asphalōs that hoti God theos has made poieō him autos both kai Lord kyrios and kai Christ Christos, · ho this houtos · ho Jesus Iēsous whom hos you hymeis crucified stauroō.”

³⁷ Now de when they heard akouō this they were cut katanyssomai to the ho heart kardia, and te they said legō to pros · ho Peter Petros and kai the ho other loipos apostles apostolos, “ My brothers anēr, what tis shall we do poieō?” ³⁸ And de Peter Petros said to pros them autos, “ Repent metanoeō and kai let every one hekastos of you hymeis be baptized baptizō in epi the ho name onoma of Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos for eis the forgiveness aphesis of ho your hymeis sins hamartia, and kai you will receive lambanō the ho gift dōrea of the ho Holy hagios Spirit pneuma. ³⁹ For gar the ho promise epangelia is eimi for you hymeis and kai for ho your hymeis children teknon and kai for all pas who ho are far makran away — as many as hosos the ho Lord kyrios our hēmeis God theos will call proskaleō to himself .” ⁴⁰ And te with many polys other heteros words logos he gave them warning diamartyromai and kai pleaded parakaleō with them autos, saying legō, “ Escape sōzō from apo · ho this houtos corrupt skolios generation genea.” · ho ⁴¹ So oun those ho who received apodechomai · ho his autos word logos were baptized baptizō, and kai there were added prostithēmi on en · ho that ekeinos day hēmera about hōsei three thousand trischilioi souls psychē.

⁴² And de they were eimi devoting proskartereō themselves to the ho teaching didachē of the ho apostles apostolos, · kai to the ho fellowship koinōnia, to the ho breaking klasis of ho bread artos, and kai to ho prayers proseuchē. ⁴³ Fear phobos came ginomai upon · de every pas soul psychē, and te many polys wonders teras and kai signs sēmeion were being done ginomai through dia the ho apostles apostolos. ⁴⁴ And de all pas who ho believed pisteuō were eimi together epi ho, · ho and kai had echō all hapas things in common koinos; ⁴⁵ and kai they were selling pipraskō their ho possessions ktēma and kai · ho belongings hyparxis and kai distributing diamerizō the proceeds autos to all pas, as kathoti anyone an tis had echō need chreia. ⁴⁶ And te every kata day hēmera, they continued to gather proskartereō together homothumadon in en the ho temple hieron, breaking klaō bread artos from house to kata house oikos, sharing metalambanō their food trophē with en joy agalliasis and kai simplicity aphelotēs of heart kardia, ⁴⁷ praising aineō · ho God theos, and kai finding echō favor charis with pros all holos the ho people laos. And de the ho Lord kyrios was adding prostithēmi to epi their ho number autos day by kata day hēmera those ho who were being saved sōzō.
