1Five days later the high priest Ananias came down with some elders and a lawyer named Tertullus, who presented to the governor their case against Paul.
1過了五天，大祭司 亞拿尼亞 同幾個長老，和一個辯士 帖土羅 下來，向巡撫控告 保羅 。
2When Paul had been called in, Tertullus opened the prosecution: “Because of you, we have enjoyed a lasting peace, and your foresight has brought improvements to this nation.
2保羅 被提了來， 帖土羅 就告他說：
3In every way and everywhere, most excellent Felix, we acknowledge this with all gratitude.
3「 腓力斯 大人，我們因你得以大享太平，並且這一國的弊病，因着你的先見得以更正了；我們隨時隨地滿心感謝不盡。
4But in order not to burden you any further, I beg your indulgence to hear us briefly.
4惟恐多說，你嫌煩絮，只求你寬容聽我們說幾句話。
5We have found this man to be a pestilence, stirring up dissension among the Jews all over the world. He is a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes,
5我們看這個人，如同瘟疫一般，是鼓動普天下眾 猶太 人生亂的，又是 拿撒勒 教黨裏的一個頭目，
6and he even tried to desecrate the temple; so we seized him.
6連 聖 殿他也想要污穢；我們把他捉住了。
8By examining him yourself, you will be able to learn the truth about all our charges against him.”
8你自己究問他，就可以知道我們告他的一切事了。」
9The Jews concurred, asserting that these charges were true.
9眾 猶太 人也隨着告他說：「事情誠然是這樣。」
10When the governor motioned for Paul to speak, he began his response: “Knowing that you have been a judge over this nation for many years, I gladly make my defense.
10巡撫點頭叫 保羅 說話。他就說：「我知道你在這國裏斷事多年，所以我樂意為自己分訴。
11You can verify for yourself that no more than twelve days ago I went up to Jerusalem to worship.
11你查問就可以知道，從我上 耶路撒冷 禮拜到今日不過有十二天。
12Yet my accusers did not find me debating with anyone in the temple or riling up a crowd in the synagogues or in the city.
12他們並沒有看見我在殿裏，或是在會堂裏，或是在城裏，和人辯論，聳動眾人。
13Nor can they prove to you any of their charges against me.
13他們現在所告我的事並不能對你證實了。
14I do confess to you, however, that I worship the God of our fathers according to the Way, which they call a sect. I believe everything that is laid down by the Law and written in the Prophets,
14但有一件事，我向你承認，就是他們所稱為異端的道，我正按着那道事奉我祖宗的上帝，又信合乎 律法 的和 先知書 上一切所記載的，
15and I have the same hope in God that they themselves cherish, that there will be a resurrection of both the righteous and the wicked.
15並且靠着上帝，盼望死人，無論善惡，都要復活，就是他們自己也有這個盼望。
16In this hope, I strive always to maintain a clear conscience before God and man.
16我因此自己勉勵，對上帝對人，常存無虧的良心。
17After several years, then, I returned to Jerusalem to bring alms to my people and to present offerings.
17過了幾年，我帶着賙濟本國的捐項和供獻的物上去。
18At the time they found me in the temple, I was ceremonially clean and was not inciting a crowd or an uproar. But there are some Jews from the province of Asia
18正獻的時候，他們看見我在殿裏已經潔淨了，並沒有聚眾，也沒有吵嚷，惟有幾個從 亞細亞 來的 猶太 人。
19who ought to appear before you and bring charges, if they have anything against me.
19他們若有告我的事，就應當到你面前來告我。
20Otherwise, let these men state for themselves any crime they found in me when I stood before the Sanhedrin,
20即或不然，這些人若看出我站在公會前，有妄為的地方，他們自己也可以說明。
21unless it was this one thing I called out as I stood in their presence: ‘It is concerning the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial before you today.’”
21縱然有，也不過一句話，就是我站在他們中間大聲說：『我今日在你們面前受審，是為死人復活 的道理 。』」
22Then Felix, who was well informed about the Way, adjourned the hearing and said, “When Lysias the commander comes, I will decide your case.”
22腓力斯 本是詳細曉得這道，就支吾他們說：「且等千夫長 呂西亞 下來，我要審斷你們的事。」
23He ordered the centurion to keep Paul under guard, but to allow him some freedom and permit his friends to minister to his needs.
23於是吩咐百夫長看守 保羅 ，並且寬待他，也不攔阻他的親友來供給他。
24After several days, Felix returned with his wife Drusilla, who was a Jewess. He sent for Paul and listened to him speak about faith in Christ Jesus.
24過了幾天， 腓力斯 和他夫人－ 猶太 的女子 土西拉 －一同來到，就叫了 保羅 來，聽他講論信基督耶穌的道。
25As Paul expounded on righteousness, self-control, and the coming judgment, Felix became frightened and said, “You may go for now. When I find the time, I will call for you.”
25保羅 講論公義、節制，和將來的審判。 腓力斯 甚覺恐懼，說：「你暫且去吧，等我得便再叫你來。」
26At the same time, he was hoping that Paul would offer him a bribe. So he sent for Paul frequently and talked with him.
26腓力斯 又指望 保羅 送他銀錢，所以屢次叫他來，和他談論。
27After two years had passed, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus. And wishing to do the Jews a favor, Felix left Paul in prison.
27過了兩年， 波求‧非斯都 接了 腓力斯 的任； 腓力斯 要討 猶太 人的喜歡，就留 保羅 在監裏。
