Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
καὶ & κατηγγέλη ὑπὸ τοῦ Παύλου ὁ λόγος τοῦ Θεοῦ
also & /was/_proclaimed by ¬the Paul the word ¬the ˱of˲_God
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “Paul was also proclaiming the word of God”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ὁ λόγος τοῦ Θεοῦ
the word ¬the ˱of˲_God
Luke is using the term word to mean the message that Paul was sharing by using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the message from God”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
σαλεύοντες καὶ ταράσσοντες τοὺς ὄχλους
agitating and disturbing the crowds
The terms exciting and troubling mean similar things. Luke may be using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “greatly upsetting”
17:13-15 Paul acknowledged the determination and persistence of this persecution when he wrote to the Thessalonians (1 Thes 2:14-16).
