Acts 23
1 And Paul looking upon the council, said: Men, brethren, I have conversed with all good conscience before God until this present day.
Un Pāvils, acis uz to tiesu metis, sacīja: “Vīri, brāļi, es ar visai labu zināmu sirdi Dieva priekšā esmu dzīvojis līdz šai pašai dienai.”
2 And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him to strike him on the mouth.
Bet tas augstais priesteris Ananija pavēlēja tiem, kas pie viņa stāvēja, viņam par muti sist.
3 Then Paul said to him: God shall strike thee, thou whited wall. For sittest thou to judge me according to the law, and contrary to the law commandest me to be struck?
Tad Pāvils uz to sacīja: “Dievs tevi sitīs, tu nobaltēta siena! Tu še sēdi, mani tiesāt pēc bauslības, un tu pavēli, mani sist pret bauslību!”
4 And they that stood by said: Dost thou revile the high priest of God?
Un tie, kas tur klāt stāvēja, sacīja: “Vai tu to augsto Dieva priesteri lamā?”
5 And Paul said: I knew not, brethren, that he is the high priest. For it is written: Thou shalt not speak evil of the prince of thy people.
Un Pāvils sacīja: “Es nezināju, brāļi, viņu esam augsto priesteri, jo ir rakstīts: pret savu ļaužu virsnieku tev nebūs ļaunu runāt.”
6 And Paul knowing that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, cried out in the council: Men, brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of Pharisees: concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.
Bet Pāvils zinādams, ka citi bija no saducejiem, citi no farizejiem, sauca augstās tiesas priekšā: “Vīri, brāļi, es esmu farizeja dēls, es topu tiesāts par to cerību, ka miroņi augšām celsies.”
7 And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees; and the multitude was divided.
Kad viņš to bija runājis, tad troksnis cēlās starp tiem farizejiem un saducejiem, un tas pulks šķīrās.
8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both.
Jo tie saduceji saka: augšāmcelšanās neesot, un neesot nedz eņģeļa, nedz gara; bet tie farizeji visu to apliecina.
9 And there arose a great cry. And some of the Pharisees rising up, strove, saying: We find no evil in this man. What if a spirit hath spoken to him, or an angel?
Un tur liela brēkšana sākās, un tie rakstu mācītāji no tās farizeju puses cēlās un tiepās sacīdami: “Mēs pie šā cilvēka nekā ļauna neatrodam; un ja kāds gars ar viņu ir runājis, vai kāds eņģelis, tad lai nekarojam pret Dievu.”
10 And when there arose a great dissension, the tribune fearing lest Paul should be pulled in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and to take him by force from among them, and to bring him into the castle.
Bet kad tas troksnis vairojās, tad tam virsniekam rūpēja, ka Pāvils no tiem netaptu saplēsts, un viņš tiem karavīriem pavēlēja noiet, to no viņu vidus izraut un novest uz lēģeri.
11 And the night following the Lord standing by him, said: Be constant; for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome.
Un nākošā naktī Tas Kungs viņam piestājās sacīdams: “Turi drošu prātu, Pāvil; jo itin tā, kā tu par Mani liecību esi devis Jeruzālemē, tāpat tev būs arī Romā liecināt.”
12 And when day was come, some of the Jews gathered together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying, that they would neither eat, nor drink, till they killed Paul.
Un kad gaisma bija aususi, tad tie Jūdi sapulcējās un sazvērējās kopā sacīdami: “Mēs negribam ne ēst ne dzert, tiekams Pāvilu būsim nokāvuši.”
13 And they were more than forty men that had made this conspiracy.
Un to bija vairāk nekā četrdesmit, kas tā bija sazvērējušies.
14 Who came to the chief priests and the ancients, and said: We have bound ourselves under a great curse that we will eat nothing till we have slain Paul.
Šie nāca pie tiem augstiem priesteriem un vecajiem un sacīja: “Mēs svēti esam nodievojušies, nekā nebaudīt, kamēr Pāvilu būsim nokāvuši.
15 Now therefore do you with the council signify to the tribune, that he bring him forth to you, as if you meant to know something more certain touching him. And we, before he come near, are ready to kill him.
Tad nu dodiet ziņu tam virsniekam un tai augstai tiesai, lai to rītā pie jums atved, tā kā jūs viņa lietu gribētu labāki izklausināt; bet mēs esam gatavi to nokaut, pirms tas atnāk.”
16 Which when Paul’s sister’s son had heard, of their lying in wait, he came and entered into the castle and told Paul.
Bet Pāvila māsas dēls šo viltu dzirdējis, atnāca un iegāja lēģerī un Pāvilam to pasludināja.
17 And Paul, calling to him one of the centurions, said: Bring this young man to the tribune, for he hath some thing to tell him.
Un Pāvils vienu no tiem kapteiņiem pasauca un sacīja: “Noved šo jaunekli pie virsnieka, jo viņam ir priekš tā kāda ziņa.”
18 And he taking him, brought him to the tribune, and said: Paul, the prisoner, desired me to bring this young man unto thee, who hath some thing to say to thee.
Tad nu šis to ņēma un noveda pie tā virsnieka un sacīja: “Tas saistītais Pāvils mani sauca un lūdza, šo jaunekli pie tevis atvest, jo viņam ar tevi kas jārunā.”
19 And the tribune taking him by the hand, went aside with him privately, and asked him: What is it that thou hast to tell me?
Un tas virsnieks to pie rokas ņēma un savrup aizgājis vaicāja: “Kas tev ir, ko man teikt?”
20 And he said: The Jews have agreed to desire thee, that thou wouldst bring forth Paul tomorrow into the council, as if they meant to inquire some thing more certain touching him.
Un tas sacīja: “Tie Jūdi saderējušies tevi lūgt, ka tu rītā Pāvilu liktu vest priekš augstās tiesas, tā kā tie gribētu viņu jo skaidri izklausināt.
21 But do not thou give credit to them; for there lie in wait for him more than forty men of them, who have bound themselves by oath neither to eat, nor to drink, till they have killed him: and they are now ready, looking for a promise from thee.
Tad nu tu neļaujies no tiem pārrunāties; jo vairāk nekā četrdesmit vīri no tiem uz viņu glūn un paši nodievojušies, nekā ne ēst ne dzert, kamēr viņu būšot nokāvuši, un nu tie ir gatavi, gaidīdami no tevis to solīšanu.”
22 The tribune therefore dismissed the young man, charging him that he should tell no man, that he had made known these things unto him.
Tad tas virsnieks to jaunekli atlaida pavēlēdams: “Nesaki to nevienam, ka tu to man esi zināmu darījis.”
23 Then having called two centurions, he said to them: Make ready two hundred soldiers to go as far as Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen for the third hour of the night:
Un tas, divus no tiem kapteiņiem ataicinājis, sacīja: “Sataisiet divsimt karavīrus, ka tie iet uz Cezareju, un septiņdesmit jātniekus un divsimt strēlniekus ap to trešo stundu naktī.”
24 And provide beasts, that they may set Paul on, and bring him safe to Felix the governor.
Viņš arī lika jājamus lopus parīkot, ka Pāvilu virsū sēdinātu un veselu novestu pie tā valdītāja Felika.
25 (For he feared lest perhaps the Jews might take him away by force and kill him, and he should afterwards be slandered, as if he was to take money.) And he wrote a letter after this manner:
Un viņš grāmatu rakstīja ar šiem vārdiem:
26 Claudius Lysias to the most excellent governor, Felix, greeting.
“Klaudijs Lizijs tam viscienīgam valdītājam Felikam prieku!
27 This man being taken by the Jews, and ready to be killed by them, I rescued coming in with an army, understanding that he is a Roman:
Šo vīru, kas no tiem Jūdiem sagrābts un no tiem tik nenokauts, es, ar tiem karavīriem pienācis, esmu izrāvis, dzirdēdams, ka viņš Romietis
28 And meaning to know the cause which they objected unto him, I brought him forth into their council.
Un gribēdams to vainu zināt, kādēļ tie viņu apsūdzēja, es viņu esmu vedis priekš viņu augstās tiesas.
29 Whom I found to be accused concerning questions of their law; but having nothing laid to his charge worthy of death or of bands.
Un es viņu atradu apsūdzētu par viņu bauslības jautāšanām, bet viņš par neko netapa apsūdzēts, ar ko nāvi vai saites būtu pelnījis.
30 And when I was told of ambushes that they had prepared for him, I sent him to thee, signifying also to his accusers to plead before thee. Farewell.
Un kad man tas padoms tapa zināms, kas tiem Jūdiem bija pret šo vīru, tad es tūdaļ viņu pie tevis esmu sūtījis un tiem sūdzētājiem pavēlējis, tavā priekšā izteikt, kas tiem ir pret viņu. Dzīvo vesels!”
31 Then the soldiers, according as it was commanded them, taking Paul, brought him by night to Antipatris.
Tad nu tie karavīri, tā kā tiem bija pavēlēts, Pāvilu ņēma un pa nakti noveda uz Antipatridu.
32 And the next day, leaving the horsemen to go with him, they returned to the castle.
Un otrā dienā tie viņu atstāja tiem jātniekiem, ar viņu tālāk iet, un paši griezās atpakaļ uz lēģeri.
33 Who, when they were come to Caesarea, and had delivered the letter to the governor, did also present Paul before him.
Viņi nu uz Cezareju nākuši un to grāmatu tam zemes valdītājam atdevuši, arī Pāvilu viņam nodeva.
34 And when he had read it, and had asked of what province he was, and understood that he was of Cilicia;
Un tas zemes valdītājs to grāmatu lasījis vaicāja, no kuras zemes tiesas viņš esot? Un dzirdējis, ka viņš no Ķiliķijas,
35 I will hear thee, said he, when thy accusers come. And he commanded him to be kept in Herod’s judgment hall.
Tas sacīja: “Es tevi izklausināšu, kad arī tavi sūdzētāji atnāks,” un pavēlēja, viņu Hērodus pilī apsargāt.
