Revised Young's Literal Translation

New Testament

 

   

26:1And Agrippa said unto Paul, 'It is permitted to you to speak for yourself;' then Paul having stretched forth the hand, was making a defence:
26:2'Concerning all things of which I am accused by Jews, king Agrippa, I have thought myself happy, being about to make a defence before you to-day,
26:3especially knowing you to be acquainted with all things -- both customs and questions -- among Jews; therefore, I beseech you, patiently to hear me.
26:4'The manner of my life then, indeed, from youth -- which from the beginning was among my nation, in Jerusalem -- know do all the Jews,
26:5knowing me before from the first, (if they may be willing to testify,) that after the most exact sect of our worship, I lived a Pharisee;
26:6and now for the hope of the promise made to the fathers by God, I have stood judged,
26:7to which our twelve tribes, intently night and day serving, do hope to come, concerning which hope I am accused, king Agrippa, by the Jews;
26:8why is it judged incredible with you, if God does raise the dead?
26:9'I, indeed, therefore, thought with myself, that against the name of Jesus of Nazareth it behoved me many things to do,
26:10which also I did in Jerusalem, and many of the saints I in prison did shut up, from the chief priests having received the authority; they also being put to death, I gave my vote against them,
26:11and in every synagogue, often punishing them, I was constraining them to speak evil, being also exceedingly mad against them, I was also persecuting them even unto strange cities.
26:12'In which things, also, going on to Damascus -- with authority and commission from the chief priests --
26:13at mid-day, I saw in the way, O king, out of heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me a light -- and those going on with me;
26:14and we all having fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew dialect, Saul, Saul, why me do you persecute? hard for you against pricks to kick!
26:15'And I said, Who are you, Lord? and he said, I am Jesus whom you do persecute;
26:16but rise, and stand upon your feet, for this I appeared to you, to appoint you an officer and a witness both of the things you did see, and of the thingsin which I will appear to you,
26:17delivering you from the people, and the nations, to whom now I send you,
26:18to open their eyes, to turnthem from darkness to light, and from the authority of the Adversary unto God, for their receiving forgiveness of sins, and a lot among those having been sanctified, by faith that is toward me.
26:19'Whereupon, king Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision,
26:20but to those in Damascus first, and to those in Jerusalem, to all the region also of Judea, and to the nations, I was preaching to reform, and to turn back unto God, doing works worthy of reformation;
26:21because of these things the Jews -- having caught me in the temple -- were endeavouring to kill me.
26:22'Having obtained, therefore, help from God, till this day, I have stood witnessing both to small and to great, saying nothing besides the things that both the prophets and Moses spake of as about to come,
26:23that the Christ is to suffer, whether first by a rising from the dead, he is about to proclaim light to the people and to the nations.'
26:24And, he thus making a defence, Festus with a loud voice said, 'You are mad, Paul; much learning does turn you mad;'
26:25and he said, 'I am not mad, most noble Festus, but of truth and soberness the sayings I speak forth;
26:26for the king does know concerning these things, before whom also I speak boldly, for none of these things, I am persuaded, are hidden from him; for this thing has not been done in a corner;
26:27you do believe, king Agrippa, the prophets? I have known that you do believe!'
26:28And Agrippa said unto Paul, 'In a little you do persuade me to become a Christian!'
26:29and Paul said, 'I would have wished to God, both in a little, and in much, not only you, but also all those hearing me to-day, to become such as I also am -- except these bonds.'
26:30And, he having spoken these things, the king rose up, and the governor, Bernice also, and those sitting with them,
26:31and having withdrawn, they were speaking unto one another, saying -- 'This man does nothing worthy of death or of bonds;'
26:32and Agrippa said to Festus, 'This man might have been released if he had not appealed to Caesar.'
