Acts 16:1–3
Timothy Accompanies Paul and Silas
16 And he came also to Derbe and to Lystra. And behold, a certain disciple was there ⌊named⌋a Timothy, the son of a believing Jewish woman but of a Greek father, 2 who was well spoken of by the brothers in Lystra and Iconium. 3 Paul wanted this one to go with him, and he took him* and* circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those places, for they all knew that his father was Greek.
| a | Literally “by name” |
| * | Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation |
| * | Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“took”) has been translated as a finite verb |
