1Then Agrippa said to Paul: Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretching forth his hand, began to make his answer.
1A LAILA olelo mai la o Ageripa ia Paulo, Ke aeia'ku nei ia oe e olelo mai nou iho. Hohola ae la o Paulo i kona lima, olelo mai la nona iho;
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.
2Pomaikai au i ko'u manao, e ke alii, o Ageripa e, no ka mea, e hoakaka ana au imua ou i keia la, no na mea a pau a'u i hoopiiia mai nei e na Iudaio:
3Especially as thou knowest all, both customs and questions that are among the Jews: Wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.
3No ka mea, ua ike no oe i na aoao, a me na mea hoopaapaa a pau o na Iudaio; nolaila, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e hoolohe ahonui mai ia'u.
4And my life indeed from my youth, which was from the beginning among my own nation in Jerusalem, all the Jews do know:
4O ko'u noho ana, mai ko'u wa uuku mai, aia ia mai kinohi mai ma Ierusalema iwaena o kou lahuiaina iho, ua ike na Iudaio a pau;
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.
5Ka poe i ike mai ia'u i kinohou, ina i ake lakou e hoike mai, noho Parisaio no wau ma ka aoao ikaika loa o ko makou hoomana.
6And now for the hope of the promise that was made by God to the fathers, do I stand subject to judgment:
6Ke ku nei no au, ua hookolokoloia mai nei no hoi, no ka manaolana o ka olelo hoopomaikai a ke Akua i olelo mai ai i ko makou mau kupuna.
7Unto which, our twelve tribes, serving night and day, hope to come. For which hope, O king, I am accused by the Jews.
7Ke manaolana nei no hoi ko makou poe ohana, he umi a me kumamalua, e loaa ia mea, me ka malama mau aku i ka po a me ke ao; no ia manaolana o'u, e ke alii, e Ageripa e, ua hoopiiia mai noi au e na Iudaio.
8Why should it be thought a thing incredible, that God should raise the dead?
8No ke aha la oukou i manao ai ho mea hiki ole i ke Akua ke hoala mai i ka poe make?
9And I indeed did formerly think, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.
9Nolaila, manao no au iloko o'u iho, he mea pono ia'u ke hana i na mea he nui i ku e i ka inoa o Iesn no Nazareta.
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.
10Hana no au ia mau mea ma Ierusalema; hana paa iho la au i na haipule he nui maloko o na halepaahao, ua loaa no ia'u ka mana no ka poe kahuna nui; a ia lakou i pepehiia, owau no kekahi i hoahewa pu aku la lakou.
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.
11Hoopai pinepine aku la au ia lakou maloko o na halehalawai a pau, a koi aku la au ia lakou e olelo hoino; a no ko'u ukiuki loa ia lakou, hoomaau aku la au ia lakou a hiki i na kulanakauhale o na aina e.
12Whereupon when I was going to Damascus with authority and permission of the chief priest,
12No ia mau mea i hele ai au i Damaseko, me ka mana a me ke aeia na na kahuna nui mai,
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.
13I ke awakea, e ke alii e, ike aku la au ma ke alanui, he malamalama mai ka lani mai, he mea oi loa aku mamua o ka malamalama o ka la, ua puni au i ka malamalama, a me ka poe i hele pu me au.
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.
14A hina makou a pau i ka honua, lohe aku la au i ka leo, i ka i ana mai ia'u, i mai la ma ka olelo Hebera, E Saulo, e Saulo, no ke aha la oe e hoomaau mai nei ia'u? He mea eha nou ke keehi mai i na kui.
15And I said: Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord answered: I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
15I aku la au, Owai oe, e ka Haku? I mai la kela, o Iesu no wau, o ka mea au e hoomaau mai nei.
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,
16Aka, e ala hoi oe, a e ku iluna ma na wawae ou; no ka mea, ua ikea au ia oe, no keia mea, e hoolilo ana au ia oe i lawehana, a i mea hoike aku i keia mea au i ike iho nei, a me na mea a'u e hoike hou aku ai nau.
17Delivering thee from the people, and from the nations, unto which now I send thee:
17Na'u no oe e hoopakele i kanaka a me ko na aina e; e hoouna aku ana no au ia oe io lakou la,
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.
18E hookaakaa'i i ko lakou mau maka, a e hoohuli ia lakou, mai ka pouli mai i ka malamalama, a mai ka mana o Satana i ke Akua, i loaa ia lakou ke kala ana o ka hala, a me ka hooilina mawaena o ka poe i hoomaemaeia e ka manaoio mai ia'u.
19Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not incredulous to the heavenly vision:
19Nolaila, e ke alii, e Ageripa e, aole au i hoole aku ia hoakaku, mai ka lani mai.
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.
20Aka, hoike mua aku la au ia lakou ma Damaseko, a ma Ierusalema, a ma na mokuna a pau ma Iudea, a i ko na aina e, i mihi lakou, a e huli i ke Akua, a e hana i na hana e ku i ka mihi.
21For this cause the Jews, when I was in the temple, having apprehended me, went about to kill me.
21No keia mau mea, lalau mai na Iudaio ia'u maloko o ka luakini, hoao mai la lakou e pepehi mai ia'u a make.
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:
22No ke kokua ana mai o ke Akua ia'u, ua ku paa no wan, a hiki mai nei i keia la, e hoike ana aku i ka poe liilii, a me ka poe nui, i ka i ana aku i keia mau mea wale no, i na mea a ka poe kaula, a me Mose no hoi i olelo mai ai, e hiki mai ana:
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.
23E make no ka Mesia e pono ai, oia hoi ka mua o ka poe make i ala hou mai, nana no e hoike aku i ka malamalama i ko onei kanaka, a me ko na aina e.
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.
24A i kana hoakaka ana pela i kona iho, i ae la o Peseto me ka leo nui, E Paulo, ua hehena oe; na na palapala he nui oe i hoolilo ai i hehena.
25And Paul said: I am not mad, most excellent Festus, but I speak words of truth and soberness.
25I aku la ia, Aole au hehena, e Peseto maikai e, aka, ke olelo aku nei au i na olelo oiaio a me ka naauao.
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.
26Ua ike no hoi ke alii i keia mea, ke olelo wiwo ole aku nei au imua o kona alo; no ka mea, ke manao nei au aole i nalo ia ia kekahi o keia mau mea, no ka mea, aole i hanaia keia ma kahi nalo.
27Believest thou the prophets, O king Agrippa? I know that thou believest.
27E ke alii, e Ageripa e, ke manaoio mai nei anei oe i ka na kaula! Ua ike no au, ua manaoio no oe.
28And Agrippa said to Paul: In a little thou persuadest me to become a Christian.
28Olelo aku la o Ageripa ia Paulo, Ua aneane oe e hoohuli mai ia'u i Kristiano.
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.
29I mai la o Paulo, Ke pule nei au i ke Akua, i ole oe ma ka aneane wale no, aka, ma ka oiaio e lilo ai oe, a me ka poe a pau e hoolohe mai ia'u i keia la, i mea e like io ai me au nei, ma na mea a pau, o keia paa wale no ke koe.
30And the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them.
30A ku ae la ke alii iluna, a me ke alii kiaaina, a me Berenike, a me ka poe e noho pu ana me lakou.
31And when they were gone aside, they spoke among themselves, saying: This man hath done nothing worthy of death or of bands.
31I ko lakou hoi ana'ku, kamailio ae la lakou ia lakou iho no, i ae la, Aole i hana keia kanaka i ka mea ku i ka make a me ka paa.
32And Agrippa said to Festus: This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed to Caesar.
32I ae la o Ageripa ia Peseto, Ina aole keia kanaka i hoopii ia Kaisara, ina ua pono ke wehe ia ia.
