- 1
- Men <G0435>, brethren <G0080>, and <G2532> fathers <G3962>, hear ye <G0191> <G5657> my <G3450> defence <G0627> [which I make] now <G3568> unto <G4314> you <G5209>.
- 2
- (And <G1161> when they heard <G0191> <G5660> that <G3754> he spake <G4377> <G5707> in the Hebrew <G1446> tongue <G1258> to them <G0846>, they kept <G3930> <G5627> the more <G3123> silence <G2271>: and <G2532> he saith <G5346> <G5748>,)
- 3
- I <G1473> am <G1510> <G5748> verily <G3303> a man <G0435> [which am] a Jew <G2453>, born <G1080> <G5772> in <G1722> Tarsus <G5019>, [a city] in Cilicia <G2791>, yet <G1161> brought up <G0397> <G5772> in <G1722> this <G5026> city <G4172> at <G3844> the feet <G4228> of Gamaliel <G1059>, [and] taught <G3811> <G5772> according <G2596> to the perfect manner <G0195> of the law <G3551> of the fathers <G3971>, and was <G5225> <G5723> zealous <G2207> toward God <G2316>, as <G2531> ye <G5210> all <G3956> are <G2075> <G5748> this day <G4594>.
- 4
- And I <G3739> persecuted <G1377> <G5656> this <G5026> way <G3598> unto <G0891> the death <G2288>, binding <G1195> <G5723> and <G2532> delivering <G3860> <G5723> into <G1519> prisons <G5438> both <G5037> men <G0435> and <G2532> women <G1135>.
- 5
- As <G5613> also <G2532> the high priest <G0749> doth bear <G3140> <G0000> me <G3427> witness <G3140> <G5719>, and <G2532> all <G3956> the estate of the elders <G4244>: from <G3844> whom <G3739> also <G2532> I received <G1209> <G5666> letters <G1992> unto <G4314> the brethren <G0080>, and <G2532> went <G4198> <G5711> to <G1519> Damascus <G1154>, to bring <G0071> <G5694> them which were <G5607> <G5752> there <G1566> bound <G1210> <G5772> unto <G1519> Jerusalem <G2419>, for to <G2443> be punished <G5097> <G5686>.
- 6
- And <G1161> it came to pass <G1096> <G5633>, that, as I made <G4198> <G0000> my <G3427> journey <G4198> <G5740>, and <G2532> was come nigh <G1448> <G5723> unto Damascus <G1154> about <G4012> noon <G3314>, suddenly <G1810> there shone <G4015> <G0000> from <G1537> heaven <G3772> a great <G2425> light <G5457> round <G4015> <G5658> about <G4012> me <G1691>.
- 7
- And <G5037> I fell <G4098> <G5627> unto <G1519> the ground <G1475>, and <G2532> heard <G0191> <G5656> a voice <G5456> saying <G3004> <G5723> unto me <G3427>, Saul <G4549>, Saul <G4549>, why <G5101> persecutest thou <G1377> <G5719> me <G3165>?
- 8
- And <G1161> I <G1473> answered <G0611> <G5662>, Who <G5101> art thou <G1488> <G5748>, Lord <G2962>? And <G5037> he said <G2036> <G5627> unto <G4314> me <G3165>, I <G1473> am <G1510> <G5748> Jesus <G2424> of Nazareth <G3480>, whom <G3739> thou <G4771> persecutest <G1377> <G5719>.
- 9
- And <G1161> they that were <G5607> <G5752> with <G4862> me <G1698> saw <G2300> <G5662> indeed <G3303> the light <G5457>, and <G2532> were <G1096> <G5633> afraid <G1719>; but <G1161> they heard <G0191> <G5656> not <G3756> the voice <G5456> of him that spake <G2980> <G5723> to me <G3427>.
- 10
- And <G1161> I said <G2036> <G5627>, What <G5101> shall I do <G4160> <G5661>, Lord <G2962>? And <G1161> the Lord <G2962> said <G2036> <G5627> unto <G4314> me <G3165>, Arise <G0450> <G5631>, and go <G4198> <G5737> into <G1519> Damascus <G1154>; and there <G2546> it shall be told <G2980> <G5701> thee <G4671> of <G4012> all things <G3956> which <G3739> are appointed <G5021> <G5769> for thee <G4671> to do <G4160> <G5658>.
- 11
- And <G1161> when <G5613> I could <G1689> <G0000> not <G3756> see <G1689> <G5707> for <G0575> the glory <G1391> of that <G1565> light <G5457>, being led by the hand <G5496> <G5746> of <G5259> them that were <G4895> <G5752> with me <G3427>, I came <G2064> <G5627> into <G1519> Damascus <G1154>.
- 12
- And <G1161> one <G5100> Ananias <G0367>, a devout <G2152> man <G0435> according <G2596> to the law <G3551>, having a good report <G3140> <G5746> of <G5259> all <G3956> the Jews <G2453> which dwelt <G2730> <G5723> [there],
- 13
- Came <G2064> <G5631> unto <G4314> me <G3165>, and <G2532> stood <G2186> <G5631>, and said <G2036> <G5627> unto me <G3427>, Brother <G0080> Saul <G4549>, receive thy sight <G0308> <G5657>. And <G2504> <G0000> the same <G0846> hour <G5610> I <G2504> looked up <G0308> <G5656> upon <G1519> him <G0846>.
- 14
- And <G1161> he said <G2036> <G5627>, The God <G2316> of our <G2257> fathers <G3962> hath chosen <G4400> <G5662> thee <G4571>, that thou shouldest know <G1097> <G5629> his <G0848> will <G2307>, and <G2532> see <G1492> <G5629> that Just One <G1342>, and <G2532> shouldest hear <G0191> <G5658> the voice <G5456> of <G1537> his <G0846> mouth <G4750>.
- 15
- For <G3754> thou shalt be <G2071> <G5704> his <G0846> witness <G3144> unto <G4314> all <G3956> men <G0444> of what <G3739> thou hast seen <G3708> <G5758> and <G2532> heard <G0191> <G5656>.
- 16
- And <G2532> now <G3568> why <G5101> tarriest thou <G3195> <G5719>? arise <G0450> <G5631>, and be baptized <G0907> <G5669>, and <G2532> wash away <G0628> <G5669> thy <G4675> sins <G0266>, calling on <G1941> <G5671> the name <G3686> of the Lord <G2962>.
- 17
- And <G1161> it came to pass <G1096> <G5633>, that, when I <G3427> was come again <G5290> <G5660> to <G1519> Jerusalem <G2419>, even <G2532> while I <G3450> prayed <G4336> <G5740> in <G1722> the temple <G2411>, I <G3165> was <G1096> <G5635> in <G1722> a trance <G1611>;
- 18
- And <G2532> saw <G1492> <G5629> him <G0846> saying <G3004> <G5723> unto me <G3427>, Make haste <G4692> <G5657>, and <G2532> get thee <G1831> <G5628> quickly <G5034> <G1722> out of <G1537> Jerusalem <G2419>: for <G1360> they will <G3858> <G0000> not <G3756> receive <G3858> <G5699> thy <G4675> testimony <G3141> concerning <G4012> me <G1700>.
- 19
- And I <G2504> said <G2036> <G5627>, Lord <G2962>, they <G0846> know <G1987> <G5736> that <G3754> I <G1473> imprisoned <G2252> <G5713> <G5439> <G5723> and <G2532> beat <G1194> <G5723> in every <G2596> synagogue <G4864> them that believed <G4100> <G5723> on <G1909> thee <G4571>:
- 20
- And <G2532> when <G3753> the blood <G0129> of thy <G4675> martyr <G3144> Stephen <G4736> was shed <G1632> <G5712>, I <G0846> also <G2532> was <G2252> <G5713> standing by <G2186> <G5761>, and <G2532> consenting <G4909> <G5723> unto his <G0846> death <G0336>, and <G2532> kept <G5442> <G5723> the raiment <G2440> of them that slew <G0337> <G5723> him <G0846>.
- 21
- And <G2532> he said <G2036> <G5627> unto <G4314> me <G3165>, Depart <G4198> <G5737>: for <G3754> I <G1473> will send <G1821> <G5692> thee <G4571> far hence <G3112> unto <G1519> the Gentiles <G1484>.
- 22
- And <G1161> they gave <G0191> <G0000> him <G0846> audience <G0191> <G5707> unto <G0891> this <G5127> word <G3056>, and <G2532> [then] lifted up <G1869> <G5656> their <G0848> voices <G5456>, and said <G3004> <G5723>, Away with <G0142> <G5720> such <G5108> a [fellow] from <G0575> the earth <G1093>: for <G1063> it is <G2520> <G0000> not <G3756> fit <G2520> <G5723> that he <G0846> should live <G2198> <G5721>.
- 23
- And <G1161> as they cried out <G2905> <G5723>, and <G2532> cast off <G4495> <G5723> [their] clothes <G2440>, and <G2532> threw <G0906> <G5723> dust <G2868> into <G1519> the air <G0109>,
- 24
- The chief captain <G5506> commanded <G2753> <G5656> him <G0846> to be brought <G0071> <G5745> into <G1519> the castle <G3925>, and bade <G2036> <G5631> that he <G0846> should be examined <G0426> <G5745> by scourging <G3148>; that <G2443> he might know <G1921> <G5632> wherefore <G1223> <G3739> <G0156> they cried <G2019> <G0000> so <G3779> against <G2019> <G5707> him <G0846>.
- 25
- And <G1161> as <G5613> they bound <G4385> <G5656> <G5625> <G4385> <G5656> him <G0846> with thongs <G2438>, Paul <G3972> said <G2036> <G5627> unto <G4314> the centurion <G1543> that stood by <G2476> <G5761>, Is it lawful <G1487> <G1832> <G5748> for you <G5213> to scourge <G3147> <G5721> a man <G0444> that is a Roman <G4514>, and <G2532> uncondemned <G0178>?
- 26
- When <G1161> the centurion <G1543> heard <G0191> <G5660> [that], he went <G4334> <G5631> and told <G0518> <G5656> the chief captain <G5506>, saying <G3004> <G5723>, Take heed <G3708> <G5720> what <G5101> thou doest <G3195> <G5719> <G4160> <G5721>: for <G1063> this <G3778> man <G0444> is <G2076> <G5748> a Roman <G4514>.
- 27
- Then <G1161> the chief captain <G5506> came <G4334> <G5631>, and said <G2036> <G5627> unto him <G0846>, Tell <G3004> <G5720> me <G3427>, <G1487> art <G1488> <G5748> thou <G4771> a Roman <G4514>? <G1161> He said <G5346> <G5713>, Yea <G3483>.
- 28
- And <G5037> the chief captain <G5506> answered <G0611> <G5662>, With a great <G4183> sum <G2774> obtained <G2932> <G5662> I <G1473> this <G5026> freedom <G4174>. And <G1161> Paul <G3972> said <G5346> <G5713>, But <G1161> I <G1473> <G2532> was [free] born <G1080> <G5769>.
- 29
- Then <G3767> straightway <G2112> they departed <G0868> <G5627> from <G0575> him <G0846> which <G3588> should <G3195> <G5723> have examined <G0426> <G5721> him <G0846>: and <G1161> the chief captain <G5506> also <G2532> was afraid <G5399> <G5675>, after he knew <G1921> <G5631> that <G3754> he was <G2076> <G5748> a Roman <G4514>, and <G2532> because <G3754> he had <G2258> <G5713> bound <G1210> <G5761> him <G0846>.
- 30
- On the morrow <G1887>, because he would <G1014> <G5740> have known <G1097> <G5629> the certainty <G0804> wherefore <G5101> he was accused <G2723> <G5743> of <G3844> the Jews <G2453>, he loosed <G3089> <G5656> him <G0846> from <G0575> [his] bands <G1199>, and <G2532> commanded <G2753> <G5656> the chief priests <G0749> and <G2532> all <G3650> their <G0846> council <G4892> to appear <G2064> <G5629>, and <G2532> brought <G2609> <G0000> Paul <G3972> down <G2609> <G5631>, and set him <G2476> <G5656> before <G1519> them <G0846>.
