| 26:1 | Then <1161> Agrippa <67> said <5346> (5713) unto <4314> Paul <3972>, Thou <4671> art permitted <2010> (5743) to speak <3004> (5721) for <5228> thyself <4572>. Then <5119> Paul <3972> stretched forth <1614> (5660) the hand <5495>, and answered for himself <626> (5711): |
| 26:2 | I think <2233> (5766) myself <1683> happy <3107>, king <935> Agrippa <67>, because I shall <3195> (5723) answer for myself <626> (5738) this day <4594> before <1909> thee <4675> touching <4012> all the things <3956> whereof <3739> I am accused <1458> (5743) of <5259> the Jews <2453>: |
| 26:3 | Especially <3122> [because I know <1492> (5761)] thee <4571> to be <5607> (5752) expert <1109> <5037> in all <3956> customs <1485> and <2532> questions <2213> which are among <2596> the Jews <2453>: wherefore <1352> I beseech <1189> (5736) thee <4675> to hear <191> (5658) me <3450> patiently <3116>. |
| 26:4 | My <3450> manner <3303> <3767> of life <981> from <1537> my youth <3503>, which <3588> was <1096> (5637) at <575> the first <746> among <1722> mine <3450> own nation <1484> at <1722> Jerusalem <2414>, know <2467> (5758) all <3956> the Jews <2453>; |
| 26:5 | Which knew <4267> (5723) me <3165> from the beginning <509>, if <1437> they would <2309> (5725) testify <3140> (5721), that <3754> after <2596> the most straitest <196> sect <139> of our <2251> religion <2356> I lived <2198> (5656) a Pharisee <5330>. |
| 26:6 | And <2532> now <3568> I stand <2476> (5758) and am judged <2919> (5746) for <1909> the hope <1680> of the promise <1860> made <1096> (5637) of <5259> God <2316> unto <4314> our fathers <3962>: |
| 26:7 | Unto <1519> which <3739> [promise] our <2257> twelve tribes <1429>, instantly <1722> <1616> serving <3000> (5723) [God] day <2250> and <2532> night <3571>, hope <1679> (5719) to come <2658> (5658). For <4012> which <3739> hope's sake <1680>, king <935> Agrippa <67>, I am accused <1458> (5743) of <5259> the Jews <2453>. {day and night: Gr. night and day} |
| 26:8 | Why <5101> should it be thought a thing <2919> (5743) incredible <571> with <3844> you <5213>, that <1487> God <2316> should raise <1453> (5719) the dead <3498>? |
| 26:9 | I <1473> verily <3303> <3767> thought <1380> (5656) with myself <1683>, that I ought <1163> (5750) to do <4238> (5658) many things <4183> contrary <1727> to <4314> the name <3686> of Jesus <2424> of Nazareth <3480>. |
| 26:10 | Which thing <3739> I <4160> (0) also <2532> did <4160> (5656) in <1722> Jerusalem <2414>: and <2532> many <4183> of the saints <40> did <2623> (0) I <1473> shut up <2623> (5656) in prison <5438>, having received <2983> (5631) authority <1849> from <3844> the chief priests <749>; and <5037> when they <846> were put to death <337> (5746), I gave <2702> (5656) my voice <5586> against [them]. |
| 26:11 | And <2532> I punished <5097> (5723) them <846> oft <4178> in <2596> every <3956> synagogue <4864>, and compelled <315> (5707) [them] to blaspheme <987> (5721); and <5037> being <1693> (0) exceedingly <4057> mad against <1693> (5740) them <846>, I persecuted <1377> (5707) [them] even <2532> unto <1519> <2193> strange <1854> cities <4172>. |
| 26:12 | <2532> Whereupon <1722> <3739> as I went <4198> (5740) to <1519> Damascus <1154> with <3326> authority <1849> and <2532> commission <2011> from <3844> the chief priests <749>, |
| 26:13 | At midday <2250> <3319>, O king <935>, I saw <1492> (5627) in <2596> the way <3598> a light <5457> from heaven <3771>, above <5228> the brightness <2987> of the sun <2246>, shining round about <4034> (5660) me <3165> and <2532> them which journeyed <4198> (5740) with <4862> me <1698>. |
| 26:14 | And <1161> when we <2257> were <2667> (0) all <3956> fallen <2667> (5631) to <1519> the earth <1093>, I heard <191> (5656) a voice <5456> speaking <2980> (5723) unto <4314> me <3165>, and <2532> saying <3004> (5723) in the Hebrew <1446> tongue <1258>, Saul <4549>, Saul <4549>, why <5101> persecutest thou <1377> (5719) me <3165>? [it is] hard <4642> for thee <4671> to kick <2979> (5721) against <4314> the pricks <2759>. |
| 26:15 | And <1161> I <1473> said <2036> (5627), Who <5101> art thou <1488> (5748), Lord <2962>? And <1161> he said <2036> (5627), I <1473> am <1510> (5748) Jesus <2424> whom <3739> thou <4771> persecutest <1377> (5719). |
| 26:16 | But <235> rise <450> (5628), and <2532> stand <2476> (5628) upon <1909> thy <4675> feet <4228>: for <1063> I have appeared <3700> (5681) unto thee <4671> for <1519> this purpose <5124>, to make <4400> (5664) thee <4571> a minister <5257> and <2532> a witness <3144> both <5037> of these things which <3739> thou hast seen <1492> (5627), and <5037> of those things in the which <3739> I will appear <3700> (5701) unto thee <4671>; |
| 26:17 | Delivering <1807> (5734) thee <4571> from <1537> the people <2992>, and <2532> [from] the Gentiles <1484>, unto <1519> whom <3739> now <3568> I send <649> (5719) thee <4571>, |
| 26:18 | To open <455> (5658) their <846> eyes <3788>, [and] to turn <1994> (5658) [them] from <575> darkness <4655> to <1519> light <5457>, and <2532> [from] the power <1849> of Satan <4567> unto <1909> God <2316>, that they <846> may receive <2983> (5629) forgiveness <859> of sins <266>, and <2532> inheritance <2819> among <1722> them which are sanctified <37> (5772) by faith <4102> that is in <1519> me <1691>. |
| 26:19 | Whereupon <3606>, O king <935> Agrippa <67>, I was <1096> (5633) not <3756> disobedient <545> unto the heavenly <3770> vision <3701>: |
| 26:20 | But <235> shewed <518> (5723) (5625) <518> (5707) first <4412> unto them of <1722> Damascus <1154>, and <2532> at Jerusalem <2414>, and <5037> throughout <1519> all <3956> the coasts <5561> of Judaea <2449>, and <2532> [then] to the Gentiles <1484>, that they should repent <3340> (5721) and <2532> turn <1994> (5721) to <1909> God <2316>, and do <4238> (5723) works <2041> meet <514> for repentance <3341>. |
| 26:21 | For <1752> these causes <5130> the Jews <2453> caught <4815> (5642) me <3165> in <1722> the temple <2411>, and went about <3987> (5711) to kill <1315> (5670) [me]. |
| 26:22 | Having <5177> (0) therefore <3767> obtained <5177> (5631) help <1947> of <3844> God <2316>, I continue <2476> (5758) unto <891> this <5026> day <2250>, witnessing <3140> (5746) both <5037> to small <3398> and <2532> great <3173>, saying <3004> (5723) none other things <3762> than <1622> those which <3739> <5037> the prophets <4396> and <2532> Moses <3475> did say <2980> (5656) should <3195> (5723) come <1096> (5738): |
| 26:23 | That <1487> Christ <5547> should suffer <3805>, [and] that <1487> he should be the first <4413> that should rise <386> from <1537> the dead <3498>, and should <3195> (5719) shew <2605> (5721) light <5457> unto the people <2992>, and <2532> to the Gentiles <1484>. |
| 26:24 | And <1161> as he <846> thus <5023> spake for himself <626> (5740), Festus <5347> said <5346> (5713) with a loud <3173> voice <5456>, Paul <3972>, thou art beside thyself <3105> (5736); much <4183> learning <1121> doth make <4062> (5719) thee <4571> mad <1519> <3130>. |
| 26:25 | But <1161> he said <5346> (5748), I am <3105> (0) not <3756> mad <3105> (5736), most noble <2903> Festus <5347>; but <235> speak forth <669> (5736) the words <4487> of truth <225> and <2532> soberness <4997>. |
| 26:26 | For <1063> the king <935> knoweth <1987> (5736) of <4012> these <5130> things, before <4314> whom <3739> also <2532> I speak <2980> (5719) freely <3955> (5740): for <1063> I am persuaded <3982> (5743) that <3756> none <5100> <3762> of these things <5130> are hidden <2990> (5721) from him <846>; for <1063> this thing <5124> was <2076> (5748) not <3756> done <4238> (5772) in <1722> a corner <1137>. |
| 26:27 | King <935> Agrippa <67>, believest thou <4100> (5719) the prophets <4396>? I know <1492> (5758) that <3754> thou believest <4100> (5719). |
| 26:28 | Then <1161> Agrippa <67> said <5346> (5713) unto <4314> Paul <3972>, Almost <1722> <3641> thou persuadest <3982> (5719) me <3165> to be <1096> (5635) a Christian <5546>. |
| 26:29 | And <1161> Paul <3972> said <2036> (5627), I would <302> <2172> (5665) to God <2316>, that not <3756> only <3440> thou <4571>, but <235> also <2532> all <3956> that hear <191> (5723) me <3450> this day <4594>, were <1096> (5635) both <2532> almost <1722> <3641>, and <2532> altogether <1722> <4183> such <5108> as <3697> <2504> I am <1510> (5748), except <3924> these <5130> bonds <1199>. |
| 26:30 | And <2532> when he <846> had <2036> (0) thus <5023> spoken <2036> (5631), the king <935> rose up <450> (5627), and <2532> the governor <2232>, and <5037> Bernice <959>, and <2532> they that sat with <4775> (5740) them <846>: |
| 26:31 | And <2532> when they were gone aside <402> (5660), they talked <2980> (5707) between <4314> themselves <240>, saying <3004> (5723), <3754> This <3778> man <444> doeth <4238> (5719) nothing <3762> worthy <514> of death <2288> or <2228> of bonds <1199>. |
| 26:32 | Then <1161> said <5346> (5713) Agrippa <67> unto Festus <5347>, This <3778> man <444> might <1410> (5711) have been set at liberty <630> (5771), if <1508> (0) he had <1941> (0) not <1508> appealed unto <1941> (5716) Caesar <2541>. |
