Acts of Sent Away Ones 9

1 And the Sheol, still him who is breathing in/inspired by a menacing threat and a murder into the Learners of the Master, he who has approached the Arch Priest,
2 he asked close beside himself for epistles into Fertile Land ("Damascus") toward the Gatherings in such a manner that if he found anyone who are being of the Road, both men and women, he might lead those who have been bound into Foundation of Peace.

3 And within the Being Carried Across, a bringing of himself near the Fertile Land ("Damascus") became, and suddenly he whirled himself around to daylight from out of the Heavenly One.³⁹

A Story of Two Sauls

4 And he who fell upon the Earth heard a voice, she who is saying to self, "Sheol Sheol, why are you chasing away myself?"
5 And he said, "Who are you, Master?" And the one: "I, myself am Salvation, him whom you, yourself are chasing after!

Go, "Jonah"...

6 But stand up and enter into the City, and it will be chattered to yourself the thing which you, yourself must make."

ἐνεοί - deaf and dumb, mute

7 And the Men, the ones who are jointly journeying with self, they had been standing by deaf and dumb, those who are hearing indeed the Voice, and those who are gazing at nobody.
8 And Sheol was woken up away from the Earth, and as the Eyes of himself were opened, he kept looking at nothing, and those who are hand-guiding himself conducted into Fertile Land ("Damascus").

βλέπων - Not Looking, Aware

9 And he was being for three days one who is not aware, and he did not eat nor drink.
10 And he was a certain Learner within Fertile Land, by a name of Favored of He Is ("Ananias"), and the Master said toward himself within a vision, "Favored of He Is" and the one said, "Behold! Myself, a master!"

Εὐθεῖαν - straight, direct (current of the river)

11 And the Master, he who stood up toward himself: "Proceed across upon the Current, the one who is being called Straight, and seek for Sheol within a house of Caster ("Judas"), by a name of Flat Basket ("Tarsea"), for behold! he is offering prayers!"
12 And he perceived a man, Favored of He Is ("Ananias") by name, he who came in, and he who has put hands upon self in such a manner that he might look up.
13 And Favored of He Is separated, "Master I heard away from many around to the Man, this one, how many evils he made to the Holy Ones of yourself within Foundation of Peace ("Jerusalem"),
14 and in here he is holding an authority close beside the Arch Priests to chain up all the ones who are invoking the Name of yourself."
15 And the Master said toward himself, "Traverse across, because this one is an instrument of a choice to myself, of the Taking Up of the Name of myself in the eye of the Herds and of kings, and of sons of God Contends ("Israel"),
16 For I, myself will show to self all the things that he, himself must undergo over the Name of myself.
17 And Favored of He Is went away and entered into the House and he who has put upon himself the Hands said, "Sheol, brother, the Master Salvation, the One who was seen by yourself, has sent away myself within the Road, her whom you were coming in such a way that you might look up and be filled up of a holy spirit."
18 And immediately they fell away from the Eyes of himself as scales and he also looked up, and he who has stood up was plunged.
19 And he who has taken hold of a nourishment was invigorated, and he became in company with the Learners within Fertile Land for certain days.
20 And immediately within the Gatherings he kept proclaiming the Salvation, that this one is the Son of the God.
21 And they were being thrown out of position, all the ones who are hearing, and they kept saying, "Is not this one the one who ravaged into Foundation of Peace the ones calling upon the Name, this one, and he had come in here into this one so that he might lead themselves, the ones thrown into chains against the Arch Priests?"
22 And Sheol was all the more being empowered and kept confounding Casters, the ones who are settling within Fertile Land, he who is knitting/putting together that this one is the Anointed One.
23 And as sufficent days kept being filled up, the Casters advised together to take himself up.

ἐπιβουλὴ - plot, treachery, conspiracy (of the Philistines)

24 And the Plot of themselves, she was recognized to Sheol, and they kept watching closely also the Gate-Wings— both of day and of night in such a manner that they might take himself up.
25 And the Learners of himself, those who have taken hold, they sent himself down by night straight through the Defense Wall, those who have slackened within a large woven basket.
26 And he who became alongside into Foundation of Peace, he kept trying to glue to the Learners, and everyone kept being terrified of himself, those who are not trusting that he is a learner.
27 And Son of Prophecy ("Barnabas"), he who has taken hold of himself, led toward the Sent Away Ones and he set out in detail to themselves how he perceived the Master within the Road, and that he chattered to self, and how he spoke freely within Fertile Land within the Name of Salvation.
28 And he was in company with themselves, the one who is leading in and the one who is leading out into Foundation of Peace, the one who is speaking freely within the Name of the Master.
29 He kept both chattering and jointly investigating toward the Outsiders ("Hellenists"), and they were putting the hand to take up himself.

Straight into the Brow

32 And he became Small Stone who is passing through all things to come down and toward the Holy Ones, the ones who are inhabiting Travail ("Lydda").
33 And he found there a man, a certain one by a name of Man of Praise ("Aeneas"),⁴² from out of years of eight, he who is lying down upon a mat, him who kept being one who has been side-dissolved.
34 And the Small Stone said to self, "Man of Praise, Salvation, an anointed one, is healing yourself! Stand up, and spread out smooth to your own self!" And immediately he stood up.
35 And they perceived himself, everyone of those who are settling in Travail and the Level Plain ("the Sharon"), anyone who turned back around upon the Master.

36 And within Beautiful ("Joppa") a certain one was being a learner, by a name Roe-Deer ("Tabitha") who is she who is being translated/expounded, she is being called Bright-Eyed One ("Dorkas"),⁴³ she, herself was being one filled satisfied of good works and charities, those whom she kept making.
37 And she became within the Days, those ones, A Dying of Herself, the one who had become weak; and those who washed placed within an upper chamber.

Birth Pangs: "Pass through until you reach us, Don't be a Coward"

38 And as Travail was being near to the Beautiful, the Learners, those who have heard that Small Stone is within herself, sent away two Men toward himself, those who are calling in to their side: "Do not shrink back to travel across until ourselves!"⁴⁴
39 And Small Stone, he who has stood up, joined with themselves, whom the one who has come beside they led up into the Upper Chamber and everyone of the Widows stood beside self, those who are crying and those who are pointing out tunics and outer garments, as much as the Bright-Eyed One kept making, she who is being in company with themselves.

Half Way

40 And the Small Stone, he who cast everyone outside, and he who placed the Knees, offered prayers; and he who has turned around toward the Body said, "Gazelle, stand up!" And he opened up the Eyes of herself, and she who perceived the Small Stone sat up.

Esther: "Divided against herself she cannot stand"

41 And he who has given a hand to herself stood herself up; and he who crowed at the Holy Ones and the Widows presented herself, she who lives.
42 And she became known throughout the whole of Beautiful, and multitudes trusted upon the Master.

βύρσα - A tanner, a craftsman who works animal hides (βύρσα = “hide, skin”) and makes them into leather.

43 And she became to abide multitudinous days within Beautiful ("Joppa") close beside a certain one, Hearing ("Simon"), a tanner.
