And when G5613 Silas G4609 and Timotheus G5095 were come G2718 from Macedonia, G3109 Paul G3972 was pressed G4912 in the spirit, G4151 and testified G1263 to the Jews G2453 that Jesus G2424 was Christ. G5547

This G3778 man was instructed G2727 in the way G3598 of the Lord; G2962 and being fervent G2204 in the spirit, G4151 he spoke G2980 and taught G1321 diligently G199 the things of the Lord, G2962 knowing G1987 only G3440 the baptism G908 of John. G2491

But Saul G4569 increased G1743 the more G3123 in strength, G1743 and confounded G4797 the Jews G2453 which G3588 dwelled G2730 at G1722 Damascus, G1154 proving G4822 that this G3778 is very G846 Christ. G5547

Opening G1272 and alleging, G3908 that Christ G5547 must G1163 needs have suffered, G3958 and risen G450 again G450 from the dead; G3498 and that this G3778 Jesus, G2424 whom G3739 I preach G2605 to you, is Christ. G5547

Having therefore G3767 obtained G5177 help G1947 of God, G2316 I continue G2476 to this G5026 day, G2250 witnessing G3140 both G5037 to small G3398 and great, G3173 saying G3004 none G3762 other G1622 things than those which G3739 the prophets G4396 and Moses G3475 did say G2980 should G3195 come: G1096

That Christ G5547 should suffer, G3805 and that he should be the first G4413 that should rise G386 from the dead, G3498 and should G3195 show G2605 light G5457 to the people, G2992 and to the Gentiles. G1484

And beginning G756 at G575 Moses G3475 and all G3956 the prophets, G4396 he expounded G1329 to them in all G3956 the scriptures G1124 the things concerning G4012 himself. G1438

And he said G2036 to them, These G3778 are the words G3056 which G3739 I spoke G2980 to you, while I was yet G2089 with you, that all G3956 things must G1163 be fulfilled, G4137 which G3588 were written G1125 in the law G3551 of Moses, G3475 and in the prophets, G4396 and in the psalms, G5568 concerning G4012 me.

For I delivered G3860 to you first G1722 G4413 of all that which G3739 I also G2532 received, G3880 how that Christ G5547 died G599 for our sins G266 according G2596 to the scriptures; G1124

And that he was buried, G2290 and that he rose G1453 again G1453 the third G5154 day G2250 according G2596 to the scriptures: G1124

For this G3778 Melchisedec, G3198 king G935 of Salem, G4532 priest G2409 of the most G5310 high G5310 God, G2316 who G3588 met G4876 Abraham G11 returning G5290 from the slaughter G2871 of the kings, G935 and blessed G2127 him;

Without G282 father, G540 without G282 mother, G282 without G35 descent, G35 having G2192 neither G3383 beginning G746 of days, G2250 nor G3383 end G5056 of life; G2222 but made G871 like G871 to the Son G5207 of God; G2316 stays G3306 a priest G2409 continually. G1519 G1336

And truly G3303 they that are of the sons G5207 of Levi, G3017 who G3588 receive G2983 the office G2405 of the priesthood, G2405 have G2192 a commandment G1785 to take tithes G586 of the people G2992 according G2596 to the law, G3551 that is, of their brothers, G80 though G2539 they come G1831 out of the loins G3751 of Abraham: G11

And without G5565 all G3956 contradiction G485 the less G1640 is blessed G2127 of the better. G2909

And as I may so G5613 say, G2031 G2036 Levi G3017 also, G2532 who G3588 receives G2983 tithes, G1183 paid G1183 tithes G1183 in Abraham. G11

Search G2045 the scriptures; G1124 for in them you think G1380 you have G2192 eternal G166 life: G2222 and they are they which testify G3140 of me.
