1 Han kom då också till Derbe och till Lystra. Där fanns en lärjunge vid namn Timoteus, som var son av en troende judisk kvinna och en grekisk fader,

3 Paulus ville nu att denne skulle fara med honom. För de judars skull som bodde i dessa trakter tog han honom därför till sig och omskar honom, ty alla visste att hans fader var grek.

1 Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek: 3 Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek.
