¹Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.

¹Guero iraganic Amphipolian eta Apollonian, ethor citecen Thessalonicara, non baitzen Iuduén synagogabat.

²Paul, as was his custom, went in to them, and for three Sabbath days reasoned with them from the Scriptures,

²Eta costumatu çuen beçala Paul sar cedin hetara, eta hirur Sabbathoz disputa cedin hequin Scripturetaric.

³explaining and demonstrating that the Christ had to suffer and rise again from the dead, and saying, “This Jesus, whom I proclaim to you, is the Christ.”

³Declaratzen eta proposatzen cerauela, ecen behar içan dela Christec suffri leçan eta resuscita ledin hiletaric: eta ecen haur cela Iesus Christ cein dio, nic predicatzen baitrauçuet.

⁴Some of them were persuaded, and joined Paul and Silas, of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and not a few of the chief women.

⁴Eta hetaric batzuc sinhets ceçaten, eta Paulen eta Silasen compainiaco eguin citecen, eta Iaincoa cerbitzatzen çutén Grecoetaric compainia handia, eta emazte ohoraturic ez guti.

⁵But the unpersuaded Jews took along TR reads “And the Jews who were unpersuaded, becoming envious and taking along” instead of “But the unpersuaded Jews took along” some wicked men from the marketplace, and gathering a crowd, set the city in an uproar. Assaulting the house of Jason, they sought to bring them out to the people.

⁵Baina bekaizteriaz mouituric Iudu rebelléc, eta harturic hara huna çabiltzan guiçon gaichto batzu, eta populua bilduric, trubla ceçaten hiria: eta Iasonen etchea iauquiric, hec populura eraman nahiz çabiltzan.

⁶When they didn’t find them, they dragged Jason and certain brothers The word for “brothers” here and where the context allows may be also correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” before the rulers of the city, crying, “These who have turned the world upside down have come here also,

⁶Eta eriden etzituztenean, tira citzaten Iason eta anayetaric batzu hirico Gobernadoretara, oihuz ceudela. Hauc mundu gucia erauci vkan duten ondoan, huna-ere ethorri içan dirade:

⁷whom Jason has received. These all act contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus!”

⁷Eta Iasonec beregana recebitu vkan ditu: eta guciec Cesaren ordenancen contra eguiten dute, dioitela berce Reguebat badela, Iesus.

⁸The multitude and the rulers of the city were troubled when they heard these things.

⁸Tharrita ceçaten bada populua eta hirico Gobernadoreac gauça hauc çançuzquitenean.

⁹When they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.

⁹Baina fiadoregoa recebituric Iasonganic eta goiticoetaric, vtzi citzaten ioaitera.

¹⁰The brothers immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Beroea. When they arrived, they went into the Jewish synagogue.

¹⁰Eta anayéc bertan gauaz idoqui citzaten campora Paul eta Silas Beroera ioan litecençát: cein hara ethorriric ioan baitzitecen Iuduén synagogara.

¹¹Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of the mind, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so.

¹¹Eta hauc ciraden Thessalonicaco noblenetaric, ceinéc hitza recebi baitzeçaten alegrança gucirequin, egun oroz Scripturác bilhatzen cituztela, eya gauça hauc hala liradenez.

¹²Many of them therefore believed; also of the prominent Greek women, and not a few men.

¹²Eta hetaric anhitzec behinçát sinhets ceçaten, eta emazte Grec honestetaric, eta guiçonetaric ezgutic.

¹³But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul at Beroea also, they came there likewise, agitating the multitudes.

¹³Baina iaquin ceçatenean Thessalonicaco Iuduéc ecen Beroen-ere Iaincoaren hitza Paulez denuntiatu içan cela, ethor citecen hara-ere, populua tharritatzen çutela.

¹⁴Then the brothers immediately sent out Paul to go as far as to the sea, and Silas and Timothy still stayed there.

¹⁴Baina bertan Paul igor ceçaten camporát anayéc, ioan ledinçát itsas alderat beçala: baina Silas eta Timotheo egon citecen han.

¹⁵But those who escorted Paul brought him as far as Athens. Receiving a commandment to Silas and Timothy that they should come to him very quickly, they departed.

¹⁵Eta Paulen salbura heltzeco carguä hartu çutenéc, eraman ceçaten hura Atheneserano: eta hec harenganic manamendu recebituric Silasgana eta Timotheogana, guciz bertan ethor litecen hura Baithara, parti citecen.

¹⁶Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw the city full of idols.

¹⁶Eta Paul Athenesen hayén beguira cegoela keichatzen cen haren spiritua hura baithan, çacussanean hiria idolatriari emana.

¹⁷So he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and the devout persons, and in the marketplace every day with those who met him.

¹⁷Disputatzen cen bada synagogán Iuduequin, eta Iaincoa cerbitzatzen çutenequin, eta merkatuco plaçán egun oroz batzen cenequin

¹⁸Some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers also TR omits “also” were conversing with him. Some said, “What does this babbler want to say?” Others said, “He seems to be advocating foreign deities,” because he preached Jesus and the resurrection.

¹⁸Orduan Epicuriano eta Stoiciano philosopho batzu disputatzen ciraden harequin: eta batzuc erraiten çutén, Cer erran nahi du edasle hunec? Eta bercéc cioiten, Iainco arrotzén eracusle dela dirudi: ceren Iesus denuntiatzen baitzerauen eta resurrectionea.

¹⁹They took hold of him, and brought him to the Areopagus, saying, “May we know what this new teaching is, which is spoken by you?

¹⁹Eta hatzamanic hura eraman ceçaten Marsen karricara, cioitela, Iaquin ahal deçaquegu ceric den hiçaz erraiten den doctrina berri hori?

²⁰For you bring certain strange things to our ears. We want to know therefore what these things mean.”

²⁰Ecen gauça arrotz batzu gure beharrietara ekarten dituc: nahi diagu bada iaquin gauça horiac cer erran nahi diraden.

²¹Now all the Athenians and the strangers living there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell or to hear some new thing.

²¹(Ecen Atheniano guciac eta han egoiten ciraden arrotzac eçeinere berce gauçatara etziraden applicatzen, cembeit berriren erraitera edo ençutera baicen)

²²Paul stood in the middle of the Areopagus, and said, “You men of Athens, I perceive that you are very religious in all things.

²²Orduan Paulec Marsen karricaren erdian cegoela, erran ceçan, Athenesco guiçonác, gauça gucietan deuotegui beçala ikusten çaituztet çuec.

²³For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription: ‘TO AN UNKNOWN GOD.’ What therefore you worship in ignorance, this I announce to you.

²³Ecen iragaiten naicela eta çuen deuotioneac contemplatzen ditudala eriden-ere badut aldarebat, ceinetan scribatua baitzén, Iaincoa eçagun gabeari. Bada eçagutu gaberic ohoratzen duçuen hura nic denuntiatzen drauçuet:

²⁴The God who made the world and all things in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands,

²⁴Mundua eta hartan diraden gauça guciac eguin dituen Iaincoa, ceruären eta lurraren Iaun delaric, ezta escuz eguin templetan habitatzen.

²⁵neither is he served by men’s hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself gives to all life and breath, and all things.

²⁵Eta ezta guiçonén escuz cerbitzatzen deusen behar beçala, ikussiric ecen berac emaiten drauztela guciey vicia eta respirationea eta gauça guciac.

²⁶He made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the surface of the earth, having determined appointed seasons, and the boundaries of their dwellings,

²⁶Eta eguin vkan du natura humano gucia odol batetaric: lurraren hedamen gauciaren gainean habita litecençat, lehenetic sasoin ordenatuac determinaturic, eta hayén habitationearen mugarriac eçarriric:

²⁷that they should seek the Lord, if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.

²⁷Iauna bilha leçatençát, aguian haztatuz hura eriden leçaquetenez gure batbederaganic vrrun ezpadere.

²⁸‘For in him we live, and move, and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also his offspring.’

²⁸Ecen harçaz vicitzen eta higuitzen eta içaten gara: çuen poetetaric-ere batzuc erran dutén beçala, Ecen haren leinu-ere bagara.

²⁹Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold, or silver, or stone, engraved by art and design of man.

²⁹Beraz Iaincoaren leinu garenaz gueroz, eztugu estimatu behar Diuinitateac vrrhea edo cilharra edo harria guiçonen artez edo inuentionez moldatua irudi duela.

³⁰The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked. But now he commands that all people everywhere should repent,

³⁰Iaincoac bada ignorantiazco demborác dissimulaturic, orain denuntiatzen draue guiçon guciey leku gucietan emenda ditecen.

³¹because he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained; of which he has given assurance to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead.”

³¹Ceren ordenatu baitu mundua iustoqui iugeaturen duen eguna determinatu duen guiçonaz, guciey eçagutzera emanic, hura hiletaric resuscitaturic.

³²Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, “We want to hear you again concerning this.”

³²Eta ençun çutenean hilén resurrectionea, batzu truffatzen ciraden, eta bercéc erraiten çutén, Ençunen augu berriz horren gainean.

³³Thus Paul went out from among them.

³³Eta hunela Paul ilki cedin hayén artetic.

³⁴But certain men joined with him, and believed, among whom also was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

³⁴Batzuc halere, hari iunctaturic, sinhets ceçaten: ceinetaric baitzén Dionysio Areopagita-ere, eta Damaris deitzen cen emaztebat, eta berceric hequin.
