Kisah Para Rasul 5:36

5:36 For some time ago ¹  Theudas rose up, claiming to be somebody, and about four hundred men joined him. He ²  was killed, and all who followed him were dispersed and nothing came of it. ³ 

Kisah Para Rasul 9:38

9:38 Because Lydda ⁴  was near Joppa, when the disciples heard that Peter was there, they sent two men to him and urged him, “Come to us without delay.” ⁵ 

Kisah Para Rasul 10:33

10:33 Therefore I sent for you at once, and you were kind enough to come. ⁶  So now we are all here in the presence of God ⁷  to listen ⁸  to everything the Lord has commanded you to say to us.” ⁹ 

Kisah Para Rasul 17:4

17:4 Some of them were persuaded ¹⁰  and joined Paul and Silas, along with a large group ¹¹  of God-fearing Greeks ¹²  and quite a few ¹³  prominent women.

Kisah Para Rasul 18:21

18:21 but said farewell to ¹⁴  them and added, ¹⁵  “I will come back ¹⁶  to you again if God wills.” ¹⁷  Then ¹⁸  he set sail from Ephesus,

Kisah Para Rasul 24:25

24:25 While Paul ¹⁹  was discussing ²⁰  righteousness, self-control, ²¹  and the coming judgment, Felix ²²  became ²³  frightened and said, “Go away for now, and when I have an opportunity, ²⁴  I will send for you.”

[5:36]  ¹ tn Grk “For before these days.”

[5:36]  ² tn Grk “who.” The relative pronoun was replaced by the pronoun “he,” and a new sentence was begun in the translation at this point.

[5:36]  ³ tn Grk “and they came to nothing.” Gamaliel’s argument is that these two insurrectionists were taken care of by natural events.

[9:38]  ⁴ sn Lydda was a city northwest of Jerusalem on the way to Joppa.

[9:38]  ⁵ tn Grk “Do not delay to come to us.” It is somewhat smoother to say in English, “Come to us without delay.”

[10:33]  ⁶ tn Grk “you have done well by coming.” The idiom καλῶς ποιεῖν (kalw" poiein) is translated “be kind enough to do someth.” by BDAG 505-6 s.v. καλῶς 4.a. The participle παραγενόμενος (paragenomeno") has been translated as an English infinitive due to the nature of the English idiom (“kind enough to” + infinitive).

[10:33]  ⁷ tn The translation “we are here in the presence of God” for ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ πάρεσμεν (enwpion tou qeou paresmen) is given by BDAG 773 s.v. πάρειμι 1.a.

[10:33]  ⁸ tn Or “to hear everything.”

[10:33]  ⁹ tn The words “to say to us” are not in the Greek text, but are implied. Cornelius knows Peter is God’s representative, bringing God’s message.

[17:4]  ¹⁰ tn Or “convinced.”

[17:4]  ¹¹ tn Or “a large crowd.”

[17:4]  ¹² tn Or “of devout Greeks,” but this is practically a technical term for the category called God-fearers, Gentiles who worshiped the God of Israel and in many cases kept the Mosaic law, but did not take the final step of circumcision necessary to become a proselyte to Judaism. See further K. G. Kuhn, TDNT 6:732-34, 743-44. Luke frequently mentions such people (Acts 13:43, 50; 16:14; 17:17; 18:7).

[17:4]  ¹³ tn Grk “not a few”; this use of negation could be misleading to the modern English reader, however, and so has been translated as “quite a few” (which is the actual meaning of the expression).

[18:21]  ¹⁴ tn Or “but took leave of.”

[18:21]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “and saying”; the participle εἰπών (eipwn) has been translated as “added” rather than “said” to avoid redundancy with the previous “said farewell.” The participle εἰπών has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[18:21]  ¹⁶ tn Or “will return.”

[18:21]  ¹⁷ tn The participle θέλοντος (qelontos), a genitive absolute construction, has been translated as a conditional adverbial participle. Again Paul acts in dependence on God.

[18:21]  ¹⁸ tn A new sentence was begun here in the translation due to the length of the sentence in Greek and the requirements of contemporary English style, which generally uses shorter sentences.

[24:25]  ¹⁹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Paul) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[24:25]  ²⁰ tn Or “speaking about.”

[24:25]  ²¹ tn Grk “and self-control.” This καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

[24:25]  sn The topic of self-control was appropriate in view of the personal history of both Felix and Drusilla (see the note on “Drusilla” in the previous verse), and might well account for Felix’s anxiety.

[24:25]  ²² sn See the note on Felix in 23:26.

[24:25]  ²³ tn Grk “becoming.” The participle γενόμενος (genomenos) has been translated as a finite verb due to requirements of contemporary English style.

[24:25]  ²⁴ tn Or “when I find time.” BDAG 639 s.v. μεταλαμβάνω 2 has “καιρὸν μ. have an opportunity = find time…Ac 24:25.”
