1Then Agrippa said to Paul: Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretching forth his hand, began to make his answer.
1AYONAE si Agripa ilegña as Pablo: Jupetmite jao na uncuentos pot jago namaesa. Ayonae si Pablo jaestira mona y canaeña ya manope pot güiya namaesa.
2I 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.
2Magofyo ray, Agripa, sa jufanope pot guajo gui menamo pago na jaane, pot todo y mafaaelajo ni y Judio sija.
3Especially as thou knowest all, both customs and questions that are among the Jews: Wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.
3Yan pot y jutungo na jago untungo todo y costumbre yan y finaesen gui entre y Judios; pot enaomina jutayuyut jao na con pasensiamo umaecungogyo.
4And my life indeed from my youth, which was from the beginning among my own nation in Jerusalem, all the Jews do know:
4Y jaanejo desde y pinatgonjo, ni y finenana gui entre y nasionjo yan guiya Jerusalem, todo y Judios tumungo.
5Having known me from the beginning (if they will give testimony) that according to the most sure sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.
5Matungojayo desde y tutujonña, yaguin manmalago masangan, na taemanoja y mas tunas na secta y religionta, jumajanaoyo taegüije y Fariseo.
6And now for the hope of the promise that was made by God to the fathers, do I stand subject to judgment:
6Ya pago, tumotojgueyo ya majus gayo pot y ninanggan y promesa ni y jafatinas si Yuus gui mañaenata.
7Unto which, our twelve tribes, serving night and day, hope to come. For which hope, O king, I am accused by the Jews.
7Ni y manmaprometa y dose tribus, masestbeja si Yuus jaane yan puenge, mananangga na ufato. Ya pot ayo na ninangga ray Agripa, na mafaaelayo ni y Judio sija.
8Why should it be thought a thing incredible, that God should raise the dead?
8Jaftaemano majusga y tijongguiyon entre jamyo, na si Yuus janacajulo y manmatae?
9And I indeed did formerly think, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.
9Guajo magajet na jujaso gui jinalomjo, na nesesitayo jufatinas megae contra y naan Jesus Nasareno.
10Which 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.
10Ya jufatinas este locue guiya Jerusalem; ya megae na mañantos jupreso, anae manresibeyo ninasiña guinin y magas mamale; ya anae para ufanmapuno, junae vosso contra sija.
11And 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.
11Ya jucastiga sija gui sinagoga, ya juprocura na junafanman chatfino contra si Yuus; ya pot gogoslalaloyo contra sija, jupetsigue sija achogja asta otro siuda sija.
12Whereupon when I was going to Damascus with authority and permission of the chief priest,
12Ya anae jumajanaoyo para Damasco yan y ninasiña guinin y magas mamale sija,
13At 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.
13Y taloane, O ray, julie gui chalan y candet guinin y langet, na malagña qui y ininan y atdao, ya manina gui oriyajo yan ayo y mangachochongjo manjanao.
14And 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 goad.
14Ya anae mamodongjam todo gui jilo oda, jujungog y inagang na jacuentuseyo gui fino Hebreo, ilegña: Saulo, Saulo, jafa na unpetsisigueyo? mapot para jago y unfamateg contra y títuca.
15And I said: Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord answered: I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
15Ya ilegco: Jaye jao Señot? ya ilegña: Guajo si Jesus ni y unpetsisigue.
16But 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,
16Lao, cajulo ya untojgue; sa jufatoigüe jao pot este na jinaso, para junaministro jao yan untestigo ni este sija na güinaja y liniimo, yan ayo sija y pot y jufatoigüe jao;
17Delivering thee from the people, and from the nations, unto which now I send thee:
17Junalibre jao gui pueblo yan y Gentiles, ya pago junajanao jao para iya sija,
18To 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.
18Para unbaba y atadogñija, yan unbira sija gui jemjom para y manana, yan y ninasiñan Satanas para as Yuus, ya ujaresibe y inasiin y isaoñija, yan erensia gui entalo ayo sija y manafangasgas pot y jinenggue ni y gaegue guiya guajo.
19Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not incredulous to the heavenly vision:
19Ya pot ayo, ti chatmatagoyo, O ray Agripa, para y vision y langet:
20But 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.
20Lao jusangane finenana ayo sija y mangaegue Damasco, yan iya Jerusalem, yan todo y tano Judea, yan y Gentiles, na ufanmañotsot ya ujabira sija para as Yuus, yan ufanmachocho y chechoñija ni y para mañotsot.
21For this cause the Jews, when I was in the temple, having apprehended me, went about to kill me.
21Sa pot este sija na maconeyo ni y Judios gui guimayuus para jumapuno.
22But 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:
22Lao jatacayo y inayudan Yuus, ya jusisigueja asta pago na jaane, mannanaeyo testimonio parejoja y diquique yan y dangculo; taya jusasangan na ayo y ufato ni y sinangan Moises yan y proteta sija;
23That 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.
23Na si Cristo, nesesitagüe ufamadese, ya güiya ufinenana, pot ucajulo guinin y manmatae, ufannae candet gui pueblo yan y Gentiles.
24As 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.
24Ya anae cumuecuentos, umagang si Festo ni y dangculo na inagangña, ilegña: Caduco jao Pablo: megae na tiningo ninacaduco jao.
25And Paul said: I am not mad, most excellent Festus, but I speak words of truth and soberness.
25Lao si Pablo ilegña: Ti caducoyo Festo; lao jusasangan y sinangan ni y magajet yan y tinas.
26For 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.
26Sa y ray jatungoja estesija, cumuentosyoja gui menaña locue libre; sa seguroyo na taya güine sija na güinaja umanaatog guiya güiya; sa estesija, ti manmafatinas gui rincon.
27Believest thou the prophets, O king Agrippa? I know that thou believest.
27Ray Agripa, unjonggue y profeta sija? jutungo na unjonggue.
28And Agrippa said to Paul: In a little thou persuadest me to become a Christian.
28Ayonae si Agripa ilegña as Pablo, Canaja unnamamañañayo para juquilisyano.
29And 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.
29Ya si Pablo ilegña. Malagoyo as Yuus, na ti jagoja, lao todo ayo sija y jumungogyo pago na jaane, ufantaegüine iya guajo, fuera di y mapresujo.
30And the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them.
30Ya anae munjayan jasangan este, cumajulo y ray yan y magalaje, yan Bernise, yan ayo sija y mangachongñiñija manmatachong.
31And when they were gone aside, they spoke among themselves, saying: This man hath done nothing worthy of death or of bands.
31Ya anae mañuja, manguentos uno yan y otro, ilegñija: Taya finatinasña este na taotao, na jamerese y finatae, pat umapreso.
32And Agrippa said to Festus: This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed to Caesar.
32Ayonae ilegña si Agripa as Festo: Este na taotao, umanalibre, yaguin ti jagagao jinisgaña gui as Sesat.
