ACTS 19:36 ANANTIRRHTWN OUN ONTWN TOUTWN DEON ESTIN hUMAS  
KATESTALMENOUS hUPARCEIN KAI MHDEN PROPETES PRASSEIN.

Syntax here seems a little overly ornate. A genitive absolute made up  
of an equative clause, DEON used in periphrastic manner, two  
infinitives for DEON.

Seems like a lot of complexity packed into a small verbal space.
