DRC, KJV, VulgClementine - Acts - 26

26:1  Then Agrippa said to Paul: Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul, stretching forth his hand, began to make his answer.

26:1  Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and answered for himself:

26:1  Agrippa vero ad Paulum ait : Permittitur tibi loqui pro temetipso. Tunc Paulus extenta manu cœpit rationem reddere :

26:2  I think myself happy, O king Agrippa, that I am to answer for myself this day before thee, touching all the things whereof I am accused by the Jews.

26:2  I think myself happy, king Agrippa, because I shall answer for myself this day before thee touching all the things whereof I am accused of the Jews:

26:2  De omnibus quibus accusor a Judæis, rex Agrippa, æstimo me beatum apud te cum sim defensurus me hodie,

26:3  Especially as thou knowest all, both customs and questions, that are among the Jews. Wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.

26:3  Especially because I know thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.

26:3  maxime te sciente omnia, et quæ apud Judæos sunt consuetudines et quæstiones : propter quod obsecro patienter me audias.

26:4  And my life indeed from my youth, which was from the beginning among my own nation in Jerusalem, all the Jews do know:

26:4  My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among mine own nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews;

26:4  Et quidem vitam meam a juventute, quæ ab initio fuit in gente mea in Jerosolymis, noverunt omnes Judæi :

26:5  Having known me from the beginning (if they will give testimony) that according to the most sure sect of our religion I lived, a Pharisee.

26:5  Which knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after the most straitest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

26:5  præscientes me ab initio (si velint testimonium perhibere) quoniam secundum certissimam sectam nostræ religionis vixi pharisæus.

26:6  And now for the hope of the promise that was made by God to the fathers, do I stand subject to judgment:

26:6  And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God unto our fathers:

26:6  Et nunc, in spe quæ ad patres nostros repromissionis facta est a Deo, sto judicio subjectus :

26:7  Unto which, our twelve tribes, serving night and day, hope to come. For which hope, O king, I am accused by the Jews.

26:7  Unto which promise our twelve tribes, instantly serving God day and night, hope to come. For which hope’s sake, king Agrippa, I am accused of the Jews.

26:7  in quam duodecim tribus nostræ nocte ac die deservientes, sperant devenire. De qua spe accusor a Judæis, rex.

26:8  Why should it be thought a thing incredible that God should raise the dead?

26:8  Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?

26:8  Quid incredibile judicatur apud vos, si Deus mortuos suscitat ?

26:9  And I indeed did formerly think that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

26:9  I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

26:9  Et ego quidem existimaveram me adversus nomen Jesu Nazareni debere multa contraria agere,

26:10  Which also I did at Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority of the chief priests. And when they were put to death, I brought the sentence.

26:10  Which thing I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I gave my voice against them.

26:10  quod et feci Jerosolymis, et multos sanctorum ego in carceribus inclusi, a principibus sacerdotum potestate accepta : et cum occiderentur, detuli sententiam.

26:11  And oftentimes punishing them, in every synagogue, I compelled them to blaspheme: and being yet more mad against them, I persecuted them even unto foreign cities.

26:11  And I punished them oft in every synagogue, and compelled them to blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even unto strange cities.

26:11  Et per omnes synagogas frequenter puniens eos, compellebam blasphemare : et amplius insaniens in eos, persequebar usque in exteras civitates.

26:12  Whereupon, when I was going to Damascus with authority and permission of the chief priest,

26:12  Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests,

26:12  In quibus dum irem Damascum cum potestate et permissu principum sacerdotum,

26:13  At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them that were in company with me.

26:13  At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me.

26:13  die media in via vidi, rex, de cælo supra splendorem solis circumfulsisse me lumen, et eos qui mecum simul erant.

26:14  And when we were all fallen down on the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me in the Hebrew tongue: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? It is hard for thee to kick against the good.

26:14  And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

26:14  Omnesque nos cum decidissemus in terram, audivi vocem loquentem mihi hebraica lingua : Saule, Saule, quid me persequeris ? durum est tibi contra stimulum calcitrare.

26:15  And I said: Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord answered: I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.

26:15  And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.

26:15  Ego autem dixi : Quis es, domine ? Dominus autem dixit : Ego sum Jesus, quem tu persequeris.

26:16  But rise up and stand upon thy feet: for to this end have I appeared to thee, that I may make thee a minister and a witness of those things which thou hast seen and of those things wherein I will appear to thee,

26:16  But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;

26:16  Sed exsurge, et sta super pedes tuos : ad hoc enim apparui tibi, ut constituam te ministrum, et testem eorum quæ vidisti, et eorum quibus apparebo tibi,

26:17  Delivering thee from the people and from the nations unto which now I send thee:

26:17  Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee,

26:17  eripiens te de populo et gentibus, in quas nunc ego mitto te,

26:18  To open their eyes, that they may be converted from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a lot among the saints, by the faith that is in me.

26:18  To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.

26:18  aperire oculos eorum, ut convertantur a tenebris ad lucem, et de potestate Satanæ ad Deum, ut accipiant remissionem peccatorum, et sortem inter sanctos, per fidem quæ est in me.

26:19  Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not incredulous to the heavenly vision.

26:19  Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision:

26:19  Unde, rex Agrippa, non fui incredulus cælesti visioni :

26:20  But to them first that are at Damascus and at Jerusalem, and unto all the country of Judea, and to the Gentiles did I preach, that they should do penance and turn to God, doing works worthy of penance.

26:20  But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judæa, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.

26:20  sed his qui sunt Damasci primum, et Jerosolymis, et in omnem regionem Judææ, et gentibus, annuntiabam, ut pœnitentiam agerent, et converterentur ad Deum, digna pœnitentiæ opera facientes.

26:21  For this cause, the Jews, when I was in the temple, having apprehended me, went about to kill me.

26:21  For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to kill me.

26:21  Hac ex causa me Judæi, cum essem in templo, comprehensum tentabant interficere.

26:22  But being aided by the help of God, I stand unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying no other thing than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come to pass:

26:22  Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come:

26:22  Auxilio autem adjutus Dei usque in hodiernum diem, sto, testificans minori atque majori, nihil extra dicens quam ea quæ prophetæ locuti sunt futura esse, et Moyses,

26:23  That Christ should suffer and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead and should shew light to the people and to the Gentiles.

26:23  That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.

26:23  si passibilis Christus, si primus ex resurrectione mortuorum, lumen annuntiaturus est populo et gentibus.

26:24  As he spoke these things and made his answer, Festus said with a loud voice: Paul, thou art beside thyself: much learning doth make thee mad.

26:24  And as he thus spake for himself, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning doth make thee mad.

26:24  Hæc loquente eo, et rationem reddente, Festus magna voce dixit : Insanis, Paule : multæ te litteræ ad insaniam convertunt.

26:25  And Paul said: I am not mad, most excellent Festus, but I speak words of truth and soberness.

26:25  But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus; but speak forth the words of truth and soberness.

26:25  Et Paulus : Non insanio, inquit, optime Feste, sed veritatis et sobrietatis verba loquor.

26:26  For the king knoweth of these things, to whom also I speak with confidence. For I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him. For neither was any of these things done in a corner.

26:26  For the king knoweth of these things, before whom also I speak freely: for I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him; for this thing was not done in a corner.

26:26  Scit enim de his rex, ad quem et constanter loquor : latere enim eum nihil horum arbitror. Neque enim in angulo quidquam horum gestum est.

26:27  Believest thou the prophets, O king Agrippa? I know that thou believest.

26:27  King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know that thou believest.

26:27  Credis, rex Agrippa, prophetis ? Scio quia credis.

26:28  And Agrippa said to Paul: In a little thou persuadest me to become a Christian.

26:28  Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.

26:28  Agrippa autem ad Paulum : In modico suades me christianum fieri.

26:29  And Paul said: I would to God that both in a little and in much, not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, should become such as I also am, except these bands.

26:29  And Paul said, I would to God, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds.

26:29  Et Paulus : Opto apud Deum, et in modico et in magno, non tantum te, sed etiam omnes qui audiunt hodie fieri tales, qualis et ego sum, exceptis vinculis his.

26:30  And the king rose up, and the governor and Bernice and they that sat with them.

26:30  And when he had thus spoken, the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them:

26:30  Et exsurrexit rex, et præses, et Bernice, et qui assidebant eis.

26:31  And when they were gone aside, they spoke among themselves, saying: This man hath done nothing worthy of death or of bands.

26:31  And when they were gone aside, they talked between themselves, saying, This man doeth nothing worthy of death or of bonds.

26:31  Et cum secessissent, loquebantur ad invicem, dicentes : Quia nihil morte aut vinculis dignum quid fecit homo iste.

26:32  And Agrippa said to Festus: This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed to Caesar.

26:32  Then said Agrippa unto Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed unto Cæsar.

26:32  Agrippa autem Festo dixit : Dimitti poterat homo hic, si non appellasset Cæsarem.
