¹

Агрі́ппа же къ Па́влу рече́: повелѣва́єтся ти́ о себѣ́ самому́ глаго́лати. Тогда́ Па́велъ просте́ръ ру́ку отвѣщава́ше:

¹

And Agrippa said unto Paul, Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretched forth his hand, and made his defense:

²

о всѣ́хъ, о ни́хже оклевета́ємь є́смь от Іуде́й, царю́ Агрі́ппо, непщу́ю себе́ блаже́нна бы́ти, я́ко предъ тобо́ю отвѣща́ти дне́сь и́мамъ,

²

I think myself happy, king Agrippa, that I am to make my defense before thee this day touching all the things whereof I am accused by the Jews:

³

па́че же вѣ́дца тя́ су́ща свѣ́дый всѣ́хъ Іуде́йскихъ обы́чаєвъ и взыска́ній. Тѣ́мже молю́ся ти́ долготерпѣли́вно послу́шати мене́.

³

especially because thou art expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.

⁴

Житіє́ у́бо моє́ є́же от ю́ности, испе́рва бы́вшеє во язы́цѣ моє́мъ во Ієрусали́мѣ, вѣ́дятъ вси́ Іуде́є,

⁴

My manner of life then from my youth up, which was from the beginning among mine own nation in Jerusalem, know all the Jews;

⁵

вѣ́дяще мя́ испе́рва, а́ще хотя́тъ свидѣ́телствовати, я́ко по извѣ́стнѣй є́реси на́шея вѣ́ры жи́хъ фарісе́й.

⁵

having knowledge of me from the first, if they be willing to testify, that after the straitest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

⁶

И ны́нѣ о упова́ніи обѣтова́нія, бы́вшаго от Бо́га ко отце́мъ на́шымъ, стою́ суди́мь,

⁶

And now I stand here to be judged for the hope of the promise made of God unto the fathers;

⁷

въ не́же обана́десяте колѣ́на на́ша безпреста́ни де́нь и но́щь служа́ще надѣ́ются доити́: о не́мже упова́ніи оклевета́ємь є́смь, царю́ Агрі́ппо, от Іуде́й.

⁷

unto which promise our twelve tribes, earnestly serving God night and day, hope to attain. And concerning this hope I am accused, King Agrippa, by the Jews.

⁸

Что́? Невѣ́рно ли су́дится ва́ми, я́ко Бо́гъ ме́ртвыя возставля́єтъ?

⁸

Why is it judged incredible with you, if God doth raise the dead?

⁹

А́зъ у́бо мнѣ́хъ, я́ко подоба́єтъ ми́ мно́га сопроти́вна проти́ву и́мене Іису́са Назоре́а сотвори́ти:

⁹

I verily thought with myself that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

¹⁰

є́же и сотвори́хъ во Ієрусали́мѣ, и мно́ги от святы́хъ а́зъ въ темни́цахъ затворя́хъ, вла́сть от архієре́й пріє́мь: убива́ємымъ же и́мъ прилага́хъ совѣ́тъ:

¹⁰

And this I also did in Jerusalem: and I shut up many of the saints in prisons, having received authority from the chief priests, and when they were put to death I gave my vote against them.

¹¹

и на всѣ́хъ со́нмищихъ мно́жицею му́чя и́хъ, принужда́хъ ху́лити: преизли́ха же вражду́я на ни́хъ, гоня́хъ да́же и до внѣ́шнихъ градо́въ.

¹¹

And punishing them oftentimes in all the synagogues, I strove to make them blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even unto foreign cities.

¹²

Въ ни́хже иды́й въ Дама́скъ со вла́стію и повелѣ́ніємъ, є́же от архієре́й,

¹²

Whereupon also, as I journeyed to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests,

¹³

въ полу́дни на пути́ ви́дѣхъ, царю́, съ небесе́ па́че сія́нія со́лнечнаго осія́вшій мя́ свѣ́тъ и со мно́ю иду́щихъ.

¹³

at midday, O king, I saw on the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them that journeyed with me.

¹⁴

Всѣ́мъ же па́дшымъ на́мъ на зе́млю, слы́шахъ гла́съ глаго́лющь ко мнѣ́ и вѣща́ющь євре́йскимъ язы́комъ: Са́вле, Са́вле, что́ Мя го́ниши? Же́стоко ти́ є́сть проти́ву рожна́ пра́ти.

¹⁴

And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew language, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the goad.

¹⁵

А́зъ же рѣ́хъ: кто́ єси́, Го́споди? О́нъ же рече́: А́зъ є́смь Іису́съ, Єго́же ты́ го́ниши:

¹⁵

And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.

¹⁶

но воста́ни и ста́ни на ногу́ твоє́ю: на се́ бо яви́хся ти́, сотвори́ти тя́ слугу́ и свидѣ́теля, я́же ви́дѣлъ єси́ и я́же явлю́ тебѣ́,

¹⁶

But arise, and stand upon thy feet: for to this end have I appeared unto thee, to appoint thee a minister and a witness both of the things which thou hast seen, and of the things wherein I will appear unto thee;

¹⁷

изъима́я тя́ от люді́й Іуде́йскихъ и от язы́къ, къ ни́мже А́зъ тя́ послю́,

¹⁷

delivering thee from the people, and the Gentiles, unto whom I send thee,

¹⁸

отве́рсти о́чи и́хъ, да обратя́тся от тмы́ въ свѣ́тъ и от о́бласти сатанины́ къ Бо́гу, є́же прія́ти и́мъ оставле́ніє грѣхо́въ и достоя́ніє во святы́хъ вѣ́рою, я́же въ Мя́.

¹⁸

to open their eyes, that they may turn away from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance among them that are sanctified by faith in me.

¹⁹

Тѣ́мже, царю́ Агрі́ппо, не бы́хъ проти́венъ небе́сному видѣ́нію,

¹⁹

Wherefore, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision:

²⁰

но су́щымъ въ Дама́сцѣ пре́жде и во Ієрусали́мѣ, и во вся́цѣй странѣ́ Іуде́йстѣй и язы́комъ проповѣ́дую пока́ятися и обрати́тися къ Бо́гу, досто́йна покая́нію дѣла́ творя́ще.

²⁰

but have been declaring to them of Damascus first, and at Jerusalem, and to all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance.

²¹

Си́хъ ра́ди мя́ Іуде́є є́мше во святи́лищи хотя́ху растерза́ти.

²¹

For this cause the Jews seized me in the temple, and assayed to kill me.

²²

По́мощь у́бо улучи́въ я́же от Бо́га, да́же до дне́ сего́ стою́, свидѣ́телствуя ма́лу же и вели́ку, ничто́же вѣща́я, ра́звѣ я́же проро́цы реко́ша хотя́щая бы́ти и Моисе́й,

²²

Having therefore obtained the help that is from God, I stand unto this day testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses did say should come;

²³

я́ко Христо́съ имѣ́яше пострада́ти, я́ко пе́рвый от воскресе́нія ме́ртвыхъ свѣ́тъ хотя́ше проповѣ́дати лю́демъ [Іуде́йскимъ] и язы́комъ.

²³

how that the Christ must suffer, and how that he first by the resurrection of the dead should proclaim light to the people and to the Gentiles.

²⁴

Сія́ же єму́ отвѣщава́ющу, Фи́стъ ве́ліимъ гла́сомъ рече́: бѣсну́єшися ли, Па́вле? Мно́гія тя́ кни́ги въ неи́стовство прелага́ютъ.

²⁴

And as he thus made his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art mad; thy much learning is turning thee mad.

²⁵

О́нъ же: не бѣсну́юся, рече́, держа́вный Фи́сте, но и́стины и цѣлому́дрія глаго́лы вѣща́ю:

²⁵

But he saith, I am not mad, most excellent Festus; but speak forth words of truth and soberness.

²⁶

вѣ́сть бо о си́хъ ца́рь, къ нему́же и съ дерзнове́ніємъ глаго́лю: утаи́тися бо єму́ от си́хъ не вѣ́рую ничесому́же, нѣ́сть бо во у́глѣ сотворе́но сіє́:

²⁶

For the king knoweth of these things, unto whom also I speak freely: for I am persuaded that none of these things is hidden from him; for this hath not been done in a corner.

²⁷

вѣ́руєши ли, царю́ Агрі́ппо, проро́комъ? Вѣ́мъ, я́ко вѣ́руєши.

²⁷

King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know that thou believest.

²⁸

Агрі́ппа же къ Па́влу рече́: вма́лѣ мя́ препира́єши Христіа́нина бы́ти.

²⁸

And Agrippa said unto Paul, In a little time thou persuadest me to become a Christian!

²⁹

Па́велъ же рече́: моли́лъ у́бо бы́хъ Бо́га, и вма́лѣ и во мно́зѣ, не то́кмо тебе́, но и всѣ́хъ слы́шащихъ мя́ дне́сь, бы́ти и́мъ та́цѣмъ, яко́въ и а́зъ є́смь, кромѣ́ у́зъ си́хъ.

²⁹

And Paul said, I would to God, that whether in a little time or in much, not thou only, but also all that hear me this day, might become such as I am, except these bonds.

³⁰

И сія́ ре́кшу єму́, воста́ ца́рь и иге́монъ, и Вернікі́а и сѣдя́щіи съ ни́ми,

³⁰

And when he had spoken these things, the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them:

³¹

и отше́дше бесѣ́доваху дру́гъ ко дру́гу, глаго́люще, я́ко ничто́же сме́рти досто́йно или́ у́зъ твори́тъ человѣ́къ се́й.

³¹

and when they had withdrawn, they spake one to another, saying, This man doeth nothing worthy of death or of bonds.

³²

Агрі́ппа же Фи́сту рече́: отпуще́нъ бы́ти можа́ше человѣ́къ се́й, а́ще не бы́ ке́саря нарица́лъ. И та́ко суди́ иге́монъ посла́ти єго́ къ ке́сарю.

³²

And Agrippa said unto Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed unto Caesar.
