Acts 26
1 Agrippa then said to Paul, “You are free to speak on your own behalf.” With a sweep of his arm, Paul began his defense.
अग्रिप्पा न पौलुस सी कह्यो, “तोख अपनो बारे म बोलन की आज्ञा हय।” तब पौलुस हाथ बढ़ाय क उत्तर देन लग्यो।
2 “I am delighted, King Agrippa, to make my defense before you today regarding everything I am accused of by the Jews,
“हे राजा अग्रिप्पा, जितनो बातों को यहूदी मोरो पर दोष लगावय हंय, अज तोरो आगु उन्को उत्तर देन म मय अपनो ख धन्य समझू हय,
3 particularly because you are an expert in all Jewish issues and customs. I beg your patient indulgence as you listen to what I have to say.
विशेष कर क् येकोलायी कि तय यहूदियों को सब सम्बन्ध अऊर विवाद ख जानय हय। येकोलायी मय प्रार्थना करू हय, धीरज सी मोरी सुन।
4 All the Jews know my life story—from my earliest days beginning in my own country and then in Jerusalem.
“मोरो चाल-चलन सुरूवात सी अपनी जाति को बीच अऊर यरूशलेम म जसो होतो, ऊ सब यहूदी जानय हंय।
5 They have known me for a long time and can verify, if they choose to, that I have followed the religious school that observes our faith in the strictest way—I lived as a Pharisee.
यदि हि गवाही देनो चाहवय, त सुरूवात सी मोख पहिचानय हंय कि मय फरीसी होय क अपनो धर्म को सब सी सही पंथ को अनुसार जीवन पर चल्यो।
6 Now I am standing here to be judged regarding the promised hope God gave to our fathers
अऊर अब ऊ प्रतिज्ञा म आशा को वजह जो परमेश्वर न हमरो पूर्वजों सी करी होती, मोरो पर मुकद्दमा चल रह्यो हय।
7 that our twelve tribes hoped to receive as they continually dedicated themselves in God's service. Yes, it's because of this hope that I'm accused by the Jews, Your Majesty!
उच प्रतिज्ञा को पूरो होन की आशा लगायो हुयो, हमरो बारा गोत्र अपनो पूरो मन सी रात-दिन परमेश्वर की सेवा करत आयो हंय। हे राजा, योच आशा को बारे म यहूदी मोर पर दोष लगावय हंय।
8 Why should any of you think it's unbelievable that God raises the dead?
जब कि परमेश्वर मरयो हुयो ख जीन्दो करय हय, त तुम्हरो इत या बात कहाली विश्वास को लायक नहीं समझी जावय?
9 Previously I was sincerely convinced I should do as much as I could to oppose the name of Jesus of Nazareth.
“मय न भी समझ्यो होतो कि यीशु नासरी को नाम को विरोध म मोख बहुत कुछ करन ख होनो होतो।
10 This is what I did in Jerusalem. I threw many of the believers in prison, having been given authority to do this by the chief priests. When they were sentenced to death I cast my vote against them.
अऊर मय न यरूशलेम म असोच करयो; अऊर महायाजक सी अधिकार पा क बहुत सो पवित्र लोगों ख जेलखाना म डाल्यो, अऊर जब हि मार डाल्यो जात होतो त मय भी उन्को विरोध म अपनी सहमती देत होतो।
11 I had them punished in all the synagogues, trying to make them recant. I was so furiously opposed to them that I went to cities outside our country to persecute them.
हर आराधनालय म मय उन्ख ताड़ना दिलाय दिलाय क यीशु की निन्दा करवात होतो, इत तक कि गुस्सा को मारे असो पागल भय गयो कि बाहेर को नगरो म भी जाय क उन्ख सतावत होतो।
12 That's why one day I was on my way to Damascus with the authority and orders from the chief priests.
“योच धुन म जब मय महायाजक सी अधिकार अऊर आज्ञा-पत्र लेय क दमिश्क ख जाय रह्यो होतो;
13 At about noon as I was on my way, Your Majesty, I saw a light from heaven that blazed brighter than the sun. It shone around me and those who were traveling with me.
त हे राजा, रस्ता म दोपहर को समय मय न आसमान सी सूरज को तेज सी भी बढ़ क एक ज्योति, अपनो अऊर अपनो संग चलन वालो को चारयी तरफ चमकतो हुयो दिख्यो।
14 All of us fell to the ground. Then I heard a voice speaking to me in Aramaic, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It's hard for you to fight against me!’
जब हम सब जमीन पर गिर पड़्यो, त मय न इब्रानी भाषा म, मोरो सी यो कहत हुयो एक आवाज सुन्यो, ‘हे शाऊल, हे शाऊल, तय मोख कहाली सतावय हय? पैनी नोक पर लात मारनो तोरो लायी कठिन हय।’
15 ‘Who are you, Lord?’ I asked. ‘I am Jesus, the one you're persecuting,’ the Lord replied.
मय न कह्यो, ‘हे प्रभु, तय कौन आय?’ प्रभु न कह्यो, ‘मय यीशु आय, जेक तय सतावय हय।
16 ‘But pick yourself up and get to your feet. The reason why I've appeared to you is to appoint you as my servant, to be a witness for me, telling others how you have seen me and everything I will reveal to you.
पर तय उठ, अपनो पाय पर खड़ो हो; कहालीकि मय न तोख येकोलायी दर्शन दियो हय कि तोख उन बातों को भी सेवक अऊर गवाह ठहराऊ, जो तय न देख्यो हंय, अऊर उन्को भी जिन्को लायी मय तोख दर्शन देऊ।
17 I will save you from your own people and from the foreigners. I am sending you to them
अऊर मय तोख तोरो लोगों सी अऊर गैरयहूदियों सी छुड़ातो रहूं, जिन्को जवर मय अब तोख येकोलायी भेजू हय
18 to open their eyes so they can turn from darkness to light, from the power of Satan to God, and so that they can receive forgiveness for their sins and a place with those who are set right as they trust in me.’
कि तय उन्की आंखी खोल कि हि अन्धकार सी ज्योति को तरफ, अऊर शैतान को अधिकार सी परमेश्वर को तरफ फिरेंन; कि पापों की माफी अऊर उन लोगों को संग जो मोरो पर विश्वास करन सी पवित्र करयो गयो हंय, मीरास पाये।’
19 Clearly, King Agrippa, I could not disobey this vision from heaven.
“येकोलायी हे राजा अग्रिप्पा, मय न ऊ स्वर्गीय दर्शन की बात नहीं टाली,
20 First in Damascus, then in Jerusalem, and then all over Judea and also to the foreigners I shared the message of repentance: how they should turn to God, demonstrating their repentance through their actions.
पर पहिलो दमिश्क को, तब यरूशलेम को, अऊर तब यहूदियों को सब रहन वालो ख, अऊर गैरयहूदियों ख समझावत रह्यो, कि मन फिरावो अऊर परमेश्वर को तरफ फिर क मन फिराव को लायक काम करो।
21 That's why the Jews seized me in the Temple and tried to kill me.
इन बातों को वजह यहूदी मोख मन्दिर म पकड़ क् मार डालन को कोशिश करत होतो।
22 God has looked after me so I can stand here today as a witness to everyone, both to ordinary people and to those who are important. I am only repeating what Moses and the prophets said would happen—
पर परमेश्वर की मदत सी मय अज तक बन्यो हय अऊर छोटो बड़ो सब को आगु गवाही देऊ हय, अऊर उन बातों ख छोड़ कुछ नहीं कह्य जो भविष्यवक्तावों अऊर मूसा न भी कह्यो कि होन वाली हंय,
23 how the Messiah had to suffer, and that by being the first to rise from the dead he would announce the light of God's salvation to both Jews and foreigners.”
कि मसीह ख दु: ख उठावनो पड़ेंन, अऊर उच सब सी पहिले मरयो हुयो म सी जीन्दो होय क, हमरो लोगों म अऊर गैरयहूदियों म ज्योति को प्रचार करेंन।”
24 Festus interrupted Paul as he made his defense, shouting out, “Paul, you've gone mad! All your knowledge is driving you insane!”
जब ऊ या रीति सी उत्तर दे रह्यो होतो, त फेस्तुस न ऊचो आवाज सी कह्यो, “हे पौलुस, तय पागल हय। बहुत अक्कल न तोख पागल कर दियो हय।”
25 “I'm not mad, Festus your Excellency,” Paul replied. “What I am saying is true and makes sense.
पर पौलुस न कह्यो, “हे महानुभव फेस्तुस, मय पागल नहाय, पर सच्चायी अऊर बुद्धि को बाते कहू हय।
26 The king recognizes this, and I'm explaining it very clearly. I am sure that he is aware of what's been happening, because none of this took place as if it were hidden in a corner.
राजा भी जेको आगु मय निडर होय क बोल रह्यो हय, या बाते जानय हय; अऊर मोख विश्वास हय कि इन बातों म सी कोयी ओको सी लूकी नहाय, कहालीकि यो घटना कोयी कोना म नहीं भयी।
27 King Agrippa, do you believe what the prophets said? I'm sure you do!”
हे राजा अग्रिप्पा, का तय भविष्यवक्तावों को विश्वास करय हय? हव, मय जानु हय कि तय विश्वास करय हय।”
28 “Do you think you can convince me to become a Christian so quickly?” Agrippa asked Paul.
तब अग्रिप्पा न पौलुस सी कह्यो, “तय थोड़ोच समझानो सी मोख मसीही बनानो चाहवय हय?”
29 “Whether it takes a short time or a long time doesn't matter,” Paul answered. “But my prayer to God is that not just you, but everybody listening to me today would become like me—except for these chains!”
पौलुस न कह्यो, “परमेश्वर सी मोरी प्रार्थना हय कि का थोड़ो म का बहुत म, केवल तयच नहीं पर जितनो लोग अज मोरी सुनय हंय, इन बन्धनों ख छोड़ हि मोरी जसो होय जाये।”
30 The king stood up, along with the governor and Bernice, and everyone who had been sitting with them.
तब राजा अऊर शासक अऊर बिरनीके अऊर उन्को संग बैठन वालो उठ खड़ो भयो;
31 They conferred together after they had left. “This man hasn't done anything that deserves death or imprisonment,” they concluded.
अऊर अलग जाय क आपस म कहन लग्यो, “यो आदमी असो त कुछ नहीं करय, जो मृत्यु दण्ड यां जेलखाना म डालन जान को लायक हय।”
32 Agrippa told Festus, “He could have been freed if he hadn't appealed to Caesar.”
अग्रिप्पा न फेस्तुस सी कह्यो, “यदि यो आदमी कैसर की दुवा नहीं देतो, त छूट सकत होतो।”
