Acts Chapter 26 - | Early Church Bible

1: And Agrippa [G1161] to [G4314] the [G3588] Paul said [G5346], It is permitted [G2010] for you [G1473][G5228] for yourself [G4572] to speak [G3004]. Then [G5119] the [G3588] Paul made a defense , having stretched out [G1614] the [G3588] hand [G5495].
2: Concerning [G4012] all [G3956] of which [G3739] I am accused [G1458] by [G5259] Jews, O king Agrippa, I esteem [G2233] myself [G1683] blessed [G3107] being about [G3195] to make a defense unto [G1909] you [G1473] today [G4594];
3: especially [G3122] a diviner [G1109] being you [G1473] of all [G3956] the [things] [G3588] among [G2596] Jews of both customs [G1485][G5037] and [G2532] matters [G2213]. Therefore [G1352] I beseech [G1189] you [G1473] leniently [G3116] to hear me [G1473].
4: Indeed then the [G3588][G3303][G3767] mode of my life [G1473], the [G3588] [one] from [G1537] youth [G3503], the [thing] [G3588] from beginning happening [G1096] among [G1722] the [G3588] my tradition-people (ethnic) '[G1484][G1473] in [G1722] Jerusalem, understand [G2467] all [G3956] the [G3588] Jews];
5: foreknowing [G4267] me [G1473] from beginning , (if [G1437] they should want [G2309] to witness [G3140]) that [G3754] according to [G2596] the [G3588] exactest sect of the [G3588] our [G2251] religion [G2356] I lived [G2198] a Pharisee [G5330] ("Separate One" [H6504]).
6: And [G2532] now [G3568] for [G1909] hope [G1680] of the [G3588] to [G4314] the [G3588] fathers [G3962] promise [G1860] being [G1096] by [G5259] the [G3588] God '[G2316] I stand [G2476] being judged [G2919],
7: in [G1519] which [G3739] the [G3588] our twelve tribes [G1429][G1473], with [G1722] intensity [G1616] night [G3571] and [G2532] day [G2250] serving [G3000], hope [G1679] to arrive [G2658]; concerning [G4012] which [G3739] hope [G1680] I am accused [G1458], O king Agrippa, by [G5259] the [G3588] Jews.
8: Why [G5100] unbelievable is it judged [G2919] by [G3844] you [G1473] if [G1487] the [G3588] God '[G2316] dead [G3498] raises [G1453]?
9: I [G1473] indeed [G3303] then [G3767] thought [G1380] to myself [G1683] towards [G4314] the [G3588] name [G3686] of Jesus [G2424] ("I AM Salvation, successor to Moses" [H3091]) the [G3588] 10> Nazarene that it was necessary [G1163] in many [things] [G4183] opposite [G1727] to act [G4238].
10: Which [G3739] also [G2532] I did [G4160] in [G1722] Jerusalem. And [G2532] many [G4183] of the [G3588] [ones] pure ' I [G1473] in prisons [G5438] imprisoned [G2623], the [G3588] from [G3844] the [G3588] chief priests authority [G1849] receiving [G2983]; and for doing away with [G5037] them [G1473] I brought down [G2702] a vote [G5586].
11: And [G2532] in all [G2596][G3956] the [G3588] synagogues [G4864] often [G4178] punishing [G5097] them [G1473], I compelled [them to blaspheme . And extremely [G4057][G5037] raging against [G1693] them [G1473], I pursued [them [G1377] even as [G2193][G2532] unto [G1519] the [G3588] outer [G1854] cities [G4172].
12: In [G1722] which [G3739] also [G2532] going [G4198] unto [G1519] the [G3588] Damascus with [G3326] authority [G1849] and [G2532] delegated power [G2011] the [G3588] by [G3844] the [G3588] chief priests ,
13: of day [G2250] in the middle [G3319] in [G2596] the [G3588] way [G3598] I looked [at] [G1492], O king , from-the-raised-place-above (from-the-sky) '[G3771] above [G5228] the [G3588] brightness [G2987] of the [G3588] sun [G2246] shining about [G4034] me [G1473] light [G5457], and [G2532] the [G3588] [ones] with [G4862] me [G1473] going [G4198].
14: And all [G3956][G1161] of us having fallen down [G2667][G1473] onto [G1519] the [G3588] land '[G1093], heard a voice [G5456] speaking [G2980] to [G4314] me [G1473] and [G2532] saying [G3004] in the [G3588] Hebrew dialect [G1258], Saul, Saul, why [G5100] do you pursue me [G1473][G1377]? It is hard [G4642] for you [G1473] against [G4314] spurs [G2759] to kick [G2979].
15: And I [G1473][G1161] said [G2036], Who [G5100] are you , O Boss '[G2962]? the [G3588] And [G1161] he said [G2036], I [G1473] am Jesus [G2424] ("I AM Salvation, successor to Moses" [H3091]) whom [G3739] you [G1473] pursue [G1377].
16: But rise up , and [G2532] stand [G2476] upon [G1909] the [G3588] your feet [G4228][G1473]! in [G1519] this [G3778] For [G1063] I appeared [G3708] to you [G1473], to handpick [G4400] you [G1473] [as] an assistant [G5257] and [G2532] witness [G3144] both of what [G3739][G5037] you looked [at] [G1492], and of what [G3739][G5037] I will make known [G3708] to you [G1473];
17: taking you out [G1807][G1473] from [G1537] the [G3588] people [G2992] and [G2532] the [G3588] tradition-peoples (ethnics) '[G1484], unto [G1519] whom [G3739] now [G3568] I will send you [G1473],
18: to open their eyes [G3788][G1473], the [G3588] to turn [G1994] from darkness [G4655] unto [G1519] light [G5457], and [G2532] the [G3588] authority [G1849] of the [G3588] Satan [G4567] unto [G1909] the [G3588] God '[G2316], for the [G3588]m to receive [G2983][G1473] a release of sins , and [G2532] a lot [G2819] among [G1722] the [G3588] [ones] having been sanctified by the trust '[G4102] the [G3588] in [G1519] me [G1473].
19: From where [G3606], O king Agrippa, not [G3756] to be [G1096] resisting persuasion to the [G3588] from-the-raised-place-above (from the sky) '[G3770] [supernatural] appearing [G3701],
20: but to the [G3588] [ones] in [G1722] Damascus first [G4412], and [G2532] Jerusalem, in [G1519] all [G3956] and [G5037] the [G3588] region [G5561] of the [G3588] Judea, and [G2532] to the [G3588] tradition-peoples (ethnics) '[G1484], I reported to repent [G3340] and [G2532] to turn [G1994] unto [G1909] the [G3588] God '[G2316], worthy of the [G3588] repentance [G3341] works [G2041] doing [G4238].
21: Because of [G1752] these [things] [G3778] me [G1473] the [G3588] Jews having seized [G4815] in [G1722] the [G3588] temple [G2413], attempted [G3985] to lay hands upon [me [G1315].
22: aid [G1947] then [G3767] Having attained [G5177] the [G3588] from [G3844] the [G3588] God '[G2316], unto the [G3588] this day [G2250][G3778] I have stood [G2476], testifying [G3143] both to small [G3397][G5037] and [G2532] great [G3173], nothing [G3762] outside [G1623] saying [G3004] of what [G3739] both [G5037] the [G3588] prophets [G4396] said [G2980] was about [G3195] to happen [G1096] and [G2532] Moses],
23: whether [G1487] is susceptible of suffering [G3805] the [G3588] [one] Anointed '[G5547]; whether [he [G1487] first [G4413] through [G1537] resurrection of dead [G3498] light [G5457] is about [G3195] to announce [G2605] to the [G3588] people [G2992], and [G2532] to the [G3588] tradition-peoples (ethnics) '[G1484].
24: [with] these [things] [G3778] And [G1161] having made his defense [G1473], the [G3588] Festus with a great [G3173] the [G3588] voice [G5456] said [G5346], You are maniacal [G3105], Paul; the [G3588] many [G4183] you [G1473] letters [G1121] into [G1519] a frenzy [G3130] dizzies [G4062].
25: the [G3588] But [G1161] I am not [G3756] maniacal [G3105], he says [G5346], most excellent [G2903] Festus, but truth and [G2532] discreetness [G4997] of words [G4487] I declare .
26: knows [G1987] For [G1063] concerning [G4012] these [things] [G3778] the [G3588] king , to [G4314] whom [G3739] also [G2532] openly speaking [G3955] I speak [G2980]. to be unaware [G2990][G1063] For [G1063] for him [G1473] in any [G5100] of these [things] [G3778] not [G3756] I am persuaded [G3982] in any way [G3762]. For not [G3756][G1063] in [G1722] a corner [G1137] being done [G4238] [is] this [G3778].
27: You trust '[G4100], O king Agrippa, the [G3588] prophets [G4396]? I know [G1492] that [G3754] you trust '[G4100].
28: the [G3588] And [G1161] Agrippa to [G4314] the [G3588] Paul said [G5346], By [G1722] little [G3641] you persuade me [G1473][G3982] to become [G1096] an Anointed One's Kin [G5546].
29: the [G3588] And [G1161] Paul said [G2036], I would make a vow [G2172] even [to the [G3588] God '[G2316], both [G2532] in [G1722] a little [G3641] and [G2532] in [G1722] much [G4183], not [G3756] only [G3440] you [G1473], but also [G2532] all [G3956] the [G3588] [ones] hearing me [G1473] today [G4594] to become [G1096] such [G5108] as to like what [G3697] even I [G2504] am , except [G3924] the [G3588]se bonds [G1199][G3778].
30: And [G2532] these [things] [G3778] him having said [G2036][G1473], rose up the [G3588] king , and [G2532] the [G3588] governor [G2232], the [G3588] and also [G5037] Bernice, and [G2532] the [G3588] [ones] sitting together [G4775] with them [G1473].
31: And [G2532] having withdrawn they spoke [G2980] with [G4314] one another , saying [G3004] that [G3754], Nothing [G3762] of death [G2288] worthy or [G2228] bonds [G1199] does [G4238] the [G3588] this man [G3778].
32: And Agrippa [G1161] the [G3588] said to Festus [G5346], to be loosed was able [G1410] the [G3588] This man [G3778] if he had not [G1508] called upon [G1941] Caesar.
