Acts 25
1 NOW when Festus was come into the province, after three days he ascended from Cæsarea to Jerusalem.
anantara. m phii. s.to nijaraajyam aagatya dinatrayaat para. m kaisariyaato yiruu"saalamnagaram aagamat|
2 Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and besought him,
tadaa mahaayaajako yihuudiiyaanaa. m pradhaanalokaa"sca tasya samak. sa. m paulam apaavadanta|
3 And desired favour against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying wait in the way to kill him.
bhavaan ta. m yiruu"saalamam aanetum aaj naapayatviti viniiya te tasmaad anugraha. m vaa nchitavanta. h|
4 But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Cæsarea, and that he himself would depart shortly thither.
yata. h pathimadhye gopanena paula. m hantu. m tai rghaatakaa niyuktaa. h| phii. s.ta uttara. m dattavaan paula. h kaisariyaayaa. m sthaasyati punaralpadinaat param aha. m tatra yaasyaami|
5 Let them therefore, said he, which among you are able, go down with me, and accuse this man, if there be any wickedness in him.
tatastasya maanu. sasya yadi ka"scid aparaadhasti. s.thati tarhi yu. smaaka. m ye "saknuvanti te mayaa saha tatra gatvaa tamapavadantu sa etaa. m kathaa. m kathitavaan|
6 And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down unto Cæsarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat commanded Paul to be brought.
da"sadivasebhyo. adhika. m vilambya phii. s.tastasmaat kaisariyaanagara. m gatvaa parasmin divase vicaaraasana upadi"sya paulam aanetum aaj naapayat|
7 And when he was come, the Jews which came down from Jerusalem stood round about, and laid many and grievous complaints against Paul, which they could not prove.
paule samupasthite sati yiruu"saalamnagaraad aagataa yihuudiiyalokaasta. m caturdi"si sa. mve. s.tya tasya viruddha. m bahuun mahaado. saan utthaapitavanta. h kintu te. saa. m kimapi pramaa. na. m daatu. m na "saknuvanta. h|
8 While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, neither against the temple, nor yet against Cæsar, have I offended any thing at all.
tata. h paula. h svasmin uttaramidam uditavaan, yihuudiiyaanaa. m vyavasthaayaa mandirasya kaisarasya vaa pratikuula. m kimapi karmma naaha. m k. rtavaan|
9 But Festus, willing to do the Jews a pleasure, answered Paul, and said, Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me?
kintu phii. s.to yihuudiiyaan santu. s.taan karttum abhila. san paulam abhaa. sata tva. m ki. m yiruu"saalama. m gatvaasmin abhiyoge mama saak. saad vicaarito bhavi. syasi?
10 Then said Paul, I stand at Cæsar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou very well knowest.
tata. h paula uttara. m proktavaan, yatra mama vicaaro bhavitu. m yogya. h kaisarasya tatra vicaaraasana eva samupasthitosmi; aha. m yihuudiiyaanaa. m kaamapi haani. m naakaar. sam iti bhavaan yathaarthato vijaanaati|
11 For if I be an offender, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there be none of these things whereof these accuse me, no man may deliver me unto them. I appeal unto Cæsar.
ka ncidaparaadha. m ki ncana vadhaarha. m karmma vaa yadyaham akari. sya. m tarhi praa. nahananada. n.damapi bhoktum udyato. abhavi. sya. m, kintu te mama samapavaada. m kurvvanti sa yadi kalpitamaatro bhavati tarhi te. saa. m kare. su maa. m samarpayitu. m kasyaapyadhikaaro naasti, kaisarasya nika. te mama vicaaro bhavatu|
12 Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast thou appealed unto Cæsar? unto Cæsar shalt thou go.
tadaa phii. s.to mantribhi. h saarddha. m sa. mmantrya paulaaya kathitavaan, kaisarasya nika. te ki. m tava vicaaro bhavi. syati? kaisarasya samiipa. m gami. syasi|
13 And after certain days king Agrippa and Bernice came unto Cæsarea to salute Festus.
kiyaddinebhya. h param aagripparaajaa bar. niikii ca phii. s.ta. m saak. saat karttu. m kaisariyaanagaram aagatavantau|
14 And when they had been there many days, Festus declared Paul’s cause unto the king, saying, There is a certain man left in bonds by Felix:
tadaa tau bahudinaani tatra sthitau tata. h phii. s.tasta. m raajaana. m paulasya kathaa. m vij naapya kathayitum aarabhata paulanaamaanam eka. m bandi phiilik. so baddha. m sa. msthaapya gatavaan|
15 About whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed me, desiring to have judgment against him.
yiruu"saalami mama sthitikaale mahaayaajako yihuudiiyaanaa. m praaciinalokaa"sca tam apodya tamprati da. n.daaj naa. m praarthayanta|
16 To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any man to die, before that he which is accused have the accusers face to face, and have licence to answer for himself concerning the crime laid against him.
tatoham ityuttaram avada. m yaavad apodito jana. h svaapavaadakaan saak. saat k. rtvaa svasmin yo. aparaadha aaropitastasya pratyuttara. m daatu. m suyoga. m na praapnoti, taavatkaala. m kasyaapi maanu. sasya praa. nanaa"saaj naapana. m romilokaanaa. m riiti rnahi|
17 Therefore, when they were come hither, without any delay on the morrow I sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought forth.
tataste. svatraagate. su parasmin divase. aham avilamba. m vicaaraasana upavi"sya ta. m maanu. sam aanetum aaj naapayam|
18 Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought none accusation of such things as I supposed:
tadanantara. m tasyaapavaadakaa upasthaaya yaad. r"sam aha. m cintitavaan taad. r"sa. m ka ncana mahaapavaada. m notthaapya
19 But had certain questions against him of their own superstition, and of one Jesus, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.
sve. saa. m mate tathaa paulo ya. m sajiiva. m vadati tasmin yii"sunaamani m. rtajane ca tasya viruddha. m kathitavanta. h|
20 And because I doubted of such manner of questions, I asked him whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these matters.
tatoha. m taad. rgvicaare sa. m"sayaana. h san kathitavaan tva. m yiruu"saalama. m gatvaa ki. m tatra vicaarito bhavitum icchasi?
21 But when Paul had appealed to be reserved unto the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I might send him to Cæsar.
tadaa paulo mahaaraajasya nika. te vicaarito bhavitu. m praarthayata, tasmaad yaavatkaala. m ta. m kaisarasya samiipa. m pre. sayitu. m na "saknomi taavatkaala. m tamatra sthaapayitum aadi. s.tavaan|
22 Then Agrippa said unto Festus, I would also hear the man myself. To morrow, said he, thou shalt hear him.
tata aagrippa. h phii. s.tam uktavaan, ahamapi tasya maanu. sasya kathaa. m "srotum abhila. saami| tadaa phii. s.to vyaaharat "svastadiiyaa. m kathaa. m tva. m "sro. syasi|
23 And on the morrow, when Agrippa was come, and Bernice, with great pomp, and was entered into the place of hearing, with the chief captains, and principal men of the city, at Festus’ commandment Paul was brought forth.
parasmin divase aagrippo bar. niikii ca mahaasamaagama. m k. rtvaa pradhaanavaahiniipatibhi rnagarasthapradhaanalokai"sca saha militvaa raajag. rhamaagatya samupasthitau tadaa phii. s.tasyaaj nayaa paula aaniito. abhavat|
24 And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all men which are here present with us, ye see this man, about whom all the multitude of the Jews have dealt with me, both at Jerusalem, and also here, crying that he ought not to live any longer.
tadaa phii. s.ta. h kathitavaan he raajan aagrippa he upasthitaa. h sarvve lokaa yiruu"saalamnagare yihuudiiyalokasamuuho yasmin maanu. se mama samiipe nivedana. m k. rtvaa proccai. h kathaamimaa. m kathitavaan punaralpakaalamapi tasya jiivana. m nocita. m tameta. m maanu. sa. m pa"syata|
25 But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and that he himself hath appealed to Augustus, I have determined to send him.
kintve. sa jana. h praa. nanaa"sarha. m kimapi karmma na k. rtavaan ityajaanaa. m tathaapi sa mahaaraajasya sannidhau vicaarito bhavitu. m praarthayata tasmaat tasya samiipa. m ta. m pre. sayitu. m matimakaravam|
26 Of whom I have no certain thing to write unto my lord. Wherefore I have brought him forth before you, and specially before thee, O king Agrippa, that, after examination had, I might have somewhat to write.
kintu "sriiyuktasya samiipam etasmin ki. m lekhaniiyam ityasya kasyacin nir. nayasya na jaatatvaad etasya vicaare sati yathaaha. m lekhitu. m ki ncana ni"scita. m praapnomi tadartha. m yu. smaaka. m samak. sa. m vi"se. sato he aagripparaaja bhavata. h samak. sam etam aanaye|
27 For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not withal to signify the crimes laid against him.
yato bandipre. sa. nasamaye tasyaabhiyogasya ki ncidalekhanam aham ayukta. m jaanaami|
