Acts 23
1 THEN Paul, looking earnestly at the sanhedrim, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience unto God even to this 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 Then the high-priest Ananias commanded those who stood by him to smite him on the mouth.
Bet tas augstais priesteris Ananija pavēlēja tiem, kas pie viņa stāvēja, viņam par muti sist.
3 Then said Paul unto him, God is ready to smite thee, thou whited wall: for art thou sitting to judge me according to the law, and violating that law, commandest me to be smitten?
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 Then they who stood by, said, Revilest thou God’s high-priest?
Un tie, kas tur klāt stāvēja, sacīja: “Vai tu to augsto Dieva priesteri lamā?”
5 And Paul said, I had not observed, brethren, that he was high-priest: for it is written, “Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler 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 Now when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried in the sanhedrim, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: for the hope and resurrection of the dead am I brought to this bar.
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 So when he had said this, a great dissension arose 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 indeed, that there is no resurrection, nor 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 a great clamour arose: and the scribes rising up who were of the party of the Pharisees, contended stoutly, saying, We find no fault in this man: but if a spirit have spoken to him, or an angel, let us not fight against God.
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 Then a great tumult arising, the tribune, apprehensive that Paul might be pulled in pieces by them, commanded the guard to go down, and take him by force from the midst of them, and bring him into the fortress.
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 stood by him, and said, Be of good courage, Paul: for as thou hast borne testimony of the things concerning me at Jerusalem, so must thou bear a testimony at Rome also.
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 Then as soon as it was day, some of the Jews forming a conspiracy, bound themselves under the direst imprecation, declaring that they would neither eat nor drink till they had 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 Now there were more than forty who had on oath formed this conspiracy.
Un to bija vairāk nekā četrdesmit, kas tā bija sazvērējušies.
14 So they came to the high-priests and elders, and said, We have bound ourselves by the direst imprecation, to taste nothing till we have killed 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 ye with the sanhedrim give notice to the military tribune, that to-morrow he bring him down to you, as if intending to make more accurate inquiries into the things concerning him: but we, ere he come nigh, 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 Now Paul’s sister’s son having heard of their lying in wait, came, and entering into the fortress told Paul.
Bet Pāvila māsas dēls šo viltu dzirdējis, atnāca un iegāja lēģerī un Pāvilam to pasludināja.
17 Then Paul calling to him one of the centurions, said, Carry this young man to the tribune: for he hath something to communicate to him.
Un Pāvils vienu no tiem kapteiņiem pasauca un sacīja: “Noved šo jaunekli pie virsnieka, jo viņam ir priekš tā kāda ziņa.”
18 Then he took him, and brought him to the tribune, and said, The prisoner Paul calling me to him, entreated me to bring this young man to thee, having something 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 Hereupon the tribune taking him by the hand, and leading him aside, inquired, What is it that thou hast to communicate to 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 together to entreat thee that to-morrow thou wouldest bring down Paul into the sanhedrim, as about to make some more accurate inquiry concerning 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 consent to them: for more than forty men of them are lying in wait for him, who have bound themselves under an anathema, neither to eat nor drink till they have killed him: and now they are in readiness, waiting only to procure the 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 Hereupon the tribune dismissed the youth, with an injunction, not to mention it to any body that thou hast discovered these things to me.
Tad tas virsnieks to jaunekli atlaida pavēlēdams: “Nesaki to nevienam, ka tu to man esi zināmu darījis.”
23 And calling to him two certain persons of the centurions, he said, Get ready two hundred soldiers to go to Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen, at 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 setting Paul thereon, you may convey him safely to Felix the governor.
Viņš arī lika jājamus lopus parīkot, ka Pāvilu virsū sēdinātu un veselu novestu pie tā valdītāja Felika.
25 And he wrote a letter containing this form of words:
Un viņš grāmatu rakstīja ar šiem vārdiem:
26 Claudius Lysias to his excellence the governor Felix, greeting.
“Klaudijs Lizijs tam viscienīgam valdītājam Felikam prieku!
27 This person had been seized by the Jews, and was ready to be slain by them: but coming on them with the guard, I rescued him out of their hands, having understood that he was a Roman citizen.
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 desirous of knowing the crime of which they accused him, I brought him down into their sanhedrim
Un gribēdams to vainu zināt, kādēļ tie viņu apsūdzēja, es viņu esmu vedis priekš viņu augstās tiesas.
29 and found him accused of some disputed points of their law; but to have no charge laid against him worthy of death or of bonds.
Un es viņu atradu apsūdzētu par viņu bauslības jautāšanām, bet viņš par neko netapa apsūdzēts, ar ko nāvi vai saites būtu pelnījis.
30 But it being discovered to me that a design was forming against the man’s life by the Jews, immediately I sent him to thee, commanding his accusers also to produce what they have against him before thee. Farewel.
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 Hereupon then the soldiers, as it was commanded them, took Paul, and brought him by night unto Antipatris.
Tad nu tie karavīri, tā kā tiem bija pavēlēts, Pāvilu ņēma un pa nakti noveda uz Antipatridu.
32 And on the morrow, leaving the horsemen to go on with him, they returned to the fortress.
Un otrā dienā tie viņu atstāja tiem jātniekiem, ar viņu tālāk iet, un paši griezās atpakaļ uz lēģeri.
33 So when they came to Caesarea, and had delivered the letter to the governor, they presented Paul also to him.
Viņi nu uz Cezareju nākuši un to grāmatu tam zemes valdītājam atdevuši, arī Pāvilu viņam nodeva.
34 Then when the governor had read it, and asked of what province he was, and understood 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 give thee a thorough hearing, said he, when thy accusers are also come hither. And he commanded them to be kept under guard in Herod’s praetorium.
Tas sacīja: “Es tevi izklausināšu, kad arī tavi sūdzētāji atnāks,” un pavēlēja, viņu Hērodus pilī apsargāt.
