Acts 25
1 Festus, therefore, having come into the province, after three days went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea,
A HIKI ae la o Peseto i ua panalaau la, a hala na la ekolu, a pii aku la ia i Ierusalema, mai Kaisareia aku.
2 and the chief priest and the principal men of the Jews disclosed to him [the things] against Paul, and were calling on him,
A o ke kahuna nui a me ka poe koikoi o na Iudaio, hoopii aku la lakou no Paulo ia ia, nonoi aku la,
3 asking favor against him, that he may send for him to Jerusalem, making an ambush to put him to death in the way.
A koi aku no hoi ia ia i ka lokomaikai ku e ia ia e kii aku kela ia ia, e hele mai i Ierusalema; e hoohalua ana lakou ma ke alanui e pepehi ia ia.
4 Then, indeed, Festus answered that Paul is kept in Caesarea, and is himself about to go forth speedily,
I mai la o Peseto, ma Kaisareia e malamaia'i o Paulo, a oia iho no e hoi koke aku ilaila.
5 “Therefore those able among you,” he says, “having come down together, if there be anything in this man—let them accuse him”;
I hou mai la ia, O ka poe e hiki o oukou, e iho pu lakou me au; ina he mea hewa iloko o ia kanaka, e hoopii lakou nona.
6 and having tarried among them more than ten days, having gone down to Caesarea, on the next day having sat on the judgment seat, he commanded Paul to be brought;
A noho iho la ia me lakou i na la he umi paha a keu, alaila, iho ae la ia i Kaisareia; a ia la ae, noho iho la ia ma ka noho hookolokolo, a kena aku la ia e kaiia mai o Paulo.
7 and he having come, there stood around the Jews who have come down from Jerusalem—many and weighty charges they are bringing against Paul, which they were not able to prove,
A hiki mai la ia, ku mai la ka poe Iudaio, i iho mai mai Ierusalema mai, a hoopii aku la ia Paulo i na mea hewa, he nui loa, aole hoi i hiki ia lakou ke hooiaio mai.
8 he making defense, [said, ] “Neither in regard to the Law of the Jews, nor in regard to the temple, nor in regard to Caesar—did I commit any sin.”
Olelo iho la ia nona iho, Aole loa au i lawehala ma ke kanawai o na Iudaio, aole hoi ma ka luakini, aole hoi i ko Kaisara.
9 And Festus willing to lay on the Jews a favor, answering Paul, said, “Are you willing, having gone up to Jerusalem, to be judged before me there concerning these things?”
No ka makemake ana o Peseto, e lokomaikai aku i na Iudaio, ninau aku la kela ia Paulo, i aku la, Ke makemake nei anei oe e pii i Ierusalema, a malaila e hookolokoloia'i e au, ma keia mau mea?
10 And Paul said, “At the judgment seat of Caesar I am standing, where it is necessary for me to be judged; I did no unrighteousness to Jews, as you also very well know;
Alaila, olelo mai o Paulo, Ke ku nei au ma ka noho hookolokolo o Kaisara, i kahi kupono e hookolokoloia mai ai au: aole au i lawehala i na Iudaio, ua ike pono no oe.
11 for if I am indeed unrighteous, and have done anything worthy of death, I do not deprecate to die; and if there is none of the things of which these accuse me, no one is able to make a favor of me to them; I appeal to Caesar!”
Ina i hewa au, a ina i hana au i ka mea e pono ai ka make, aole au e hoole aku i ka make; aka, ina he mea ole keia mau mea a lakou e hoopii mai nei ia'u, aole loa e hiki i kekahi ke haawi aku ia'u ia lakou. Ke hoopii nei au ia Kaisara.
12 Then Festus, having communed with the council, answered, “To Caesar you have appealed; to Caesar you will go.”
Alaila, kamailio iho la o Peseto me ka poe ahaolelo, i aku la ia, Ua hoopii oe ia Kaisara, ea! ia Kaisara oe e hele ai.
13 And certain days having passed, Agrippa the king, and Bernice, came down to Caesarea greeting Festus,
A hala ae la kekahi mau la, hiki mai la i Kaisareia, o Ageripa, ke alii laua me Berenike e aloha mai ia Peseto.
14 and as they were continuing there more days, Festus submitted to the king the things concerning Paul, saying, “There is a certain man, left by Felix, a prisoner,
A nui na la a laua i noho ai ilaila, hai aku la o Peseto i ua alii la i na mea a Paulo, i aku la, Ua waihopaaia mai nei kekahi kanaka e Pelika;
15 about whom, in my being at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews laid information, asking a decision against him,
I ka wa a'u ma Ierusalema, hai mai la na kahuna nui a me na lunakahiko o na Iudaio ia'u nona, koi mai la lakou e hoahewaia oia.
16 to whom I answered, that it is not a custom of Romans to make a favor of any man to die, before that he who is accused may have the accusers face to face, and may receive place of defense in regard to the charge laid against [him].
I aku la au ia lakou, Aole ia o ko Roma aoao, ke haawi aku i kekahi kanaka e make, me ka halawai maka ole o ka mea i hoopiiia, a me ka poe e hoopii mai, a aeia'ku ia e olelo mai nona iho ma na mea i hoopiiia mai nona.
17 They, therefore, having come together—I, making no delay, on the succeeding [day] having sat on the judgment seat, commanded the man to be brought,
A hiki mai la lakou ia nei, aole au i kali hou aku; ia la ae, noho au ma ka noho hookolokolo, a kena aku la e kaiia mai ua kanaka la.
18 concerning whom the accusers, having stood up, were bringing against [him] no accusation of the things I was thinking of,
A ku mai la ka poe hoopii ia ia, aole lakou i hoike mai i kekahi mea e like me ko'u manao mua:
19 but certain questions concerning their own religion they had against him, and concerning a certain Jesus who was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive;
He mau ninau nae ko lakou no ko lakou hoomana ana, e hoopii mai ia ia, a no kekahi Iesu, ka mea i make, a ua hai mai o Paulo, ua ola.
20 and I, doubting in regard to the question concerning this, asked if he was willing to go on to Jerusalem, and to be judged there concerning these things—
A i ko'u kanalua ana no keia hoopaapaa ana, ninau aku la au, Ke makemake nei anei oe e hele i Ierusalema, a malaila e hookolokoloia'i, no keia mau mea?
21 but Paul having appealed to be kept to the hearing of Sebastus, I commanded him to be kept until I might send him to Caesar.”
A i ka Paulo hoopii ana e waihoia'i oia no ka hookolokolo mai o Auguseto, kauoha aku la au e malamaia oia, a hoouna aku au ia ia io Kaisara la.
22 And Agrippa said to Festus, “I was also intending to hear the man myself”; and he said, “Tomorrow you will hear him”;
Alaila, i ae la o Ageripa ia Peseto, Owau no kekahi e hoolohe aku i na kanaka la. I mai la kela, Apopo e lohe oe ia ia,
23 on the next day, therefore—on the coming of Agrippa and Bernice with much display, and they having entered into the audience chamber, with the chief captains also, and the principal men of the city, and Festus having ordered—Paul was brought forth.
A ia la ae, hiki mai la o Ageripa, laua me Berenike, me ka hanobano nui, a komo aku la i kahi hoolohe, me na lunatausani, a me na kanaka koikoi o ia kulanakauhale, alaila, kauoha aku o Peseto a kaiia mai o Paulo.
24 And Festus said, “King Agrippa, and all men who are present with us, you see this one, about whom all the multitude of the Jews dealt with me, both in Jerusalem and here, crying out, He ought not to live any longer;
A olelo ae la o Peseto, E ke alii, e Ageripa e, a me na kanaka a pau me kakou, Ke ike nei oukou i keia kanaka a ka poe Iudaio ma Ierusalema, a maanei no hoi i hoopii mai ai ia'u, a me ke kahea ana, aole ia e pono ke ola hou aku.
25 and I, having found him to have done nothing worthy of death, and he also himself having appealed to Sebastus, I decided to send him,
A ike aku la au, aole ia i hana i ka mea e pono ai ka make, a nana iho i hoopii aku ia Auguseto, manao paa au e hoouna aku ia ia ilaila.
26 concerning whom I have no certain thing to write to [my] lord, for what reason I brought him forth before you, and especially before you, King Agrippa, that the examination having been made, I may have something to write;
Aole a'u mea e palapala aku ai nona i ko'u haku. No ia mea, ua kai mai au ia ia imua o oukou nei, a imua no hoi ou, e ke alii, e Ageripa e, i loaa ia'u kekahi mea e palapala aku ai, mahope o keia hookolokolo ana.
27 for it seems to me irrational, sending a prisoner, not to also signify the charges against him.”
No ka mea, aole e pono i ko'u manao ke hoouna aku i ke kanaka paa, me ka hoike ole aku i ka hewa ana i hoopiiia mai ai.
