King James Version with Apocrypha
1αγριππασ δε προσ τον παυλον εφη επιτρεπεται σοι υπερ σεαυτου λεγειν τοτε ο παυλοσ απελογειτο εκτεινασ την χειρα
1Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and answered for himself:
2περι παντων ων εγκαλουμαι υπο ιουδαιων βασιλευ αγριππα ηγημαι εμαυτον μακαριον επι σου μελλων απολογεισθαι σημερον
2I 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:
3μαλιστα γνωστην οντα σε παντων των κατα ιουδαιουσ ηθων τε και ζητηματων διο δεομαι σου μακροθυμωσ ακουσαι μου
3Especially 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.
4την μεν ουν βιωσιν μου την εκ νεοτητοσ την απ αρχησ γενομενην εν τω εθνει μου εν ιεροσολυμοισ ισασιν παντεσ οι ιουδαιοι
4My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among mine own nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews;
5προγινωσκοντεσ με ανωθεν εαν θελωσιν μαρτυρειν οτι κατα την ακριβεστατην αιρεσιν τησ ημετερασ θρησκειασ εζησα φαρισαιοσ
5Which knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after the most straitest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.
6και νυν επ ελπιδι τησ προσ τουσ πατερασ επαγγελιασ γενομενησ υπο του θεου εστηκα κρινομενοσ
6And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God unto our fathers:
7εισ ην το δωδεκαφυλον ημων εν εκτενεια νυκτα και ημεραν λατρευον ελπιζει καταντησαι περι ησ ελπιδοσ εγκαλουμαι βασιλευ αγριππα υπο ιουδαιων
7Unto 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.
8τι απιστον κρινεται παρ υμιν ει ο θεοσ νεκρουσ εγειρει
8Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?
9εγω μεν ουν εδοξα εμαυτω προσ το ονομα ιησου του ναζωραιου δειν πολλα εναντια πραξαι
9I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.
10ο και εποιησα εν ιεροσολυμοισ και πολλουσ των αγιων εγω φυλακαισ κατεκλεισα την παρα των αρχιερεων εξουσιαν λαβων αναιρουμενων τε αυτων κατηνεγκα ψηφον
10Which 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 .
11και κατα πασασ τασ συναγωγασ πολλακισ τιμωρων αυτουσ ηναγκαζον βλασφημειν περισσωσ τε εμμαινομενοσ αυτοισ εδιωκον εωσ και εισ τασ εξω πολεισ
11And 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.
12εν οισ και πορευομενοσ εισ την δαμασκον μετ εξουσιασ και επιτροπησ τησ παρα των αρχιερεων
12Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests,
13ημερασ μεσησ κατα την οδον ειδον βασιλευ ουρανοθεν υπερ την λαμπροτητα του ηλιου περιλαμψαν με φωσ και τουσ συν εμοι πορευομενουσ
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 which journeyed with me.
14παντων δε καταπεσοντων ημων εισ την γην ηκουσα φωνην λαλουσαν προσ με και λεγουσαν τη εβραιδι διαλεκτω σαουλ σαουλ τι με διωκεισ σκληρον σοι προσ κεντρα λακτιζειν
14And 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.
15εγω δε ειπον τισ ει κυριε ο δε ειπεν εγω ειμι ιησουσ ον συ διωκεισ
15And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
16αλλα αναστηθι και στηθι επι τουσ ποδασ σου εισ τουτο γαρ ωφθην σοι προχειρισασθαι σε υπηρετην και μαρτυρα ων τε ειδεσ ων τε οφθησομαι σοι
16But 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;
17εξαιρουμενοσ σε εκ του λαου και των εθνων εισ ουσ εγω σε αποστελλω
17Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee,
18ανοιξαι οφθαλμουσ αυτων του υποστρεψαι απο σκοτουσ εισ φωσ και τησ εξουσιασ του σατανα επι τον θεον του λαβειν αυτουσ αφεσιν αμαρτιων και κληρον εν τοισ ηγιασμενοισ πιστει τη εισ εμε
18To 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.
19οθεν βασιλευ αγριππα ουκ εγενομην απειθησ τη ουρανιω οπτασια
19Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision:
20αλλα τοισ εν δαμασκω πρωτον και ιεροσολυμοισ εισ πασαν τε την χωραν τησ ιουδαιασ και τοισ εθνεσιν απαγγελλων μετανοειν και επιστρεφειν επι τον θεον αξια τησ μετανοιασ εργα πρασσοντασ
20But 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.
21ενεκα τουτων οι ιουδαιοι με συλλαβομενοι εν τω ιερω επειρωντο διαχειρισασθαι
21For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to kill me .
22επικουριασ ουν τυχων τησ παρα του θεου αχρι τησ ημερασ ταυτησ εστηκα μαρτυρομενοσ μικρω τε και μεγαλω ουδεν εκτοσ λεγων ων τε οι προφηται ελαλησαν μελλοντων γινεσθαι και μωυσησ
22Having 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:
23ει παθητοσ ο χριστοσ ει πρωτοσ εξ αναστασεωσ νεκρων φωσ μελλει καταγγελλειν τω λαω και τοισ εθνεσιν
23That 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.
24ταυτα δε αυτου απολογουμενου ο φηστοσ μεγαλη τη φωνη εφη μαινη παυλε τα πολλα σε γραμματα εισ μανιαν περιτρεπει
24And as he thus spake for himself, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning doth make thee mad.
25ο δε ου μαινομαι φησιν κρατιστε φηστε αλλα αληθειασ και σωφροσυνησ ρηματα αποφθεγγομαι
25But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus; but speak forth the words of truth and soberness.
26επισταται γαρ περι τουτων ο βασιλευσ προσ ον και παρρησιαζομενοσ λαλω λανθανειν γαρ αυτον τι τουτων ου πειθομαι ουδεν ου γαρ εν γωνια πεπραγμενον τουτο
26For 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.
27πιστευεισ βασιλευ αγριππα τοισ προφηταισ οιδα οτι πιστευεισ
27King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know that thou believest.
28ο δε αγριππασ προσ τον παυλον εφη εν ολιγω με πειθεισ χριστιανον γενεσθαι
28Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.
29ο δε παυλοσ ειπεν ευξαιμην αν τω θεω και εν ολιγω και εν πολλω ου μονον σε αλλα και παντασ τουσ ακουοντασ μου σημερον γενεσθαι τοιουτουσ οποιοσ καγω ειμι παρεκτοσ των δεσμων τουτων
29And 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.
30και ταυτα ειποντοσ αυτου ανεστη ο βασιλευσ και ο ηγεμων η τε βερνικη και οι συγκαθημενοι αυτοισ
30And when he had thus spoken, the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them:
31και αναχωρησαντεσ ελαλουν προσ αλληλουσ λεγοντεσ οτι ουδεν θανατου αξιον η δεσμων πρασσει ο ανθρωποσ ουτοσ
31And when they were gone aside, they talked between themselves, saying, This man doeth nothing worthy of death or of bonds.
32αγριππασ δε τω φηστω εφη απολελυσθαι εδυνατο ο ανθρωποσ ουτοσ ει μη επεκεκλητο καισαρα
32Then said Agrippa unto Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed unto Cæsar.
