< Acts 23 >
1 And Paul, looking attentively on the Sanhedrim, said, Brethren, I have, even to this day, lived in all good conscience toward God--
Eta beguiac conseillua baitharát chuchenduric Paulec erran ceçan, Guiçon anayeác, nic conscientia on gucitan cerbitzatu vkan dut Iaincoa egun hunetarano.
2 And Ananias, the high priest, commanded those that stood by him, to strike him on the mouth.
Orduan Ananias Sacrificadore subiranoac mana citzan aldean çaizconac, hura muthurrean io leçaten.
3 Then Paul said to him, God is about to strike you, you whited wall! For do you sit to judge me according to the law, and yet, in violation of the law, command me to be struck?
Orduan Paulec erran cieçón, Cehaturen au hi Iaincoac, paret churituá: eta hi baihago Leguearen arauez ene iugeatzeco, eta Leguearen contra manatzen duc ni ceha nadin?
4 But they, that stood by, said, Do you revile the high priest of God?
Eta present ciradenéc erran ceçaten, Iaincoaren Sacrificadore subiranoa iniuriatzen duc?
5 And Paul said, Brethren, I was not aware that it was the high priest; for it is written, "You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people."
Eta erran ceçan Paulec, Anayeác, ez naquian Sacrificadore subirano cela: ecen scribatua da, Eure populuaren princeaz eztuc gaizqui erranen.
6 Then Paul, perceiving that the one part was Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, cried out, in the Sanhedrim, Brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee; for the hope and resurrection of the dead, I am brought into judgment.
Eta iaquin çuenean Paulec ecen partida bata cela Sadduceuetaric, eta bercea Phariseuetaric, oihuz iar cedin conseilluan, Guiçon anayeác, ni Phariseu naiz, Phariseu seme: hilén sperançáz eta resurrectioneaz ni accusatzen naiz.
7 And on speaking this, there was a contention between the Pharisees and the Sadducees; and the multitude was divided.
Eta haur erran çuenean, eguin cedin seditione Phariseuén eta Sadduceuén artean: eta çathi cedin biltzarrea.
8 For the Sadducees say there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit; but the Pharisees confess both.
Ecen Sadduceuéc erraiten dute eztela resurrectioneric, ez Aingueruric ez spirituric: baina Phariseuéc bata eta bercea aithor dituzté.
9 And there was a great clamor; and the scribes who were on the side of the Pharisees, arose and contended, saying, We find no evil in this man; but if a spirit, or an angel has spoken to him, let us not fight against God.
Eta eguin içan cen heyagora handibat: orduan Phariseuén alde ciraden Scribác iaiquiric baciharducaten, erraiten çutela, Eztugu deus gaitzic eriden guiçon hunetan, baina baldin spiritubat edo Ainguerubat minçatu baçayó ezgaitecela Iaincoaren contra batailla.
10 And as a great disturbance arose, the commander, fearing lest Paul should be torn in pieces by them, ordered the soldiers to go down, and take him by force from the midst of them, and to bring him into the castle.
Eta seditione handi eguin içanic, Capitainac beldurturic, heçaz Paul çathica ledin, mana ceçan gendarmesac iauts litecen hayén artetic haren harapatzera eta fortaleçara eramaitera.
11 And in the following night, the Lord, standing by him, said, Be of good courage, Paul; for as you have testified the things concerning me in Jerusalem, so you must also bear testimony in Rome.
Eta ondoco gauèan Iaunac, hari presentatzen çayola, erran cieçón, Paul, auc bihotz on: ecen nola testificatu baituc niçaz Ierusalemen, hala behar duc Roman-ere testificatu.
12 And when it was day, some of the Jews, entering into a conspiracy, bound themselves with a curse; saying, that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul.
Eta arguitu cenean, Iuduetaric batzuc eguinic biltzarre eta vot maledictionerequin, lioitela, ezlutela ianen ez edanen Paul hil leçaqueteno.
13 And they were more than forty, who had made this agreement.
Eta berroguey baino guehiago ciraden coniuratione haur eguin çutenac.
14 And they came to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have bound ourselves m by a solemn anathema, not to taste anything till we have slain Paul:
Hec ethorriric Sacrificadore principaletara eta Ancianoetara, erran ceçaten, Vot eguin dugu maledictionerequin, deus eztugula dastaturen Paul hil duqueguno.
15 now, therefore, do you, with the Sanhedrim, signify to the commander, that he bring him down to you, as if you would more accurately discuss what relates to him; and we are ready to kill him, before he can come near you.
Orain bada çuec iaquin eraci ieçoçue Capitainari, conseilluaren vorondatetic bihar hura erekar dieçaçuela, harçaz cerbait hobequi eçagutu nahi bacinduté beçala: eta gu hura hurbil dadin baino lehen, prest gara haren hiltzera.
16 But Paul's sister's son, hearing of the ambush, came, and entering into the castle, told Paul.
Baina Paulen arrebaren semea ençunic celatác, ethor cedin, eta sarthuric fortaleçara conta cieçón Pauli.
17 And Paul, calling one of the centurions to him, said, Conduct this young man to the commander, for he has something to tell him.
Eta Paulec Centeneretaric bat beregana deithuric, erran cieçón, Guiçon gazte haur eramac Capitainagana, ecen badic cerbait hari erran beharric.
18 He, therefore, took and led him to the commander, and said, Paul, the prisoner, calling me to him, desired that I would bring to you this young man, who has something to tell you.
Harc bada hura harturic eraman ceçan Capitainagana, eta erran ceçan, Paul presonerac beregana deithuric othoitz eguin dirautac, guiçon gazte haur hiregana ekar neçan, ceinec baitu cerbait hiri erran beharric.
19 And the commander, taking him by the hand, and leading him into a retired place, inquired of him, What is it that you have to tell me?
Eta Capitainac hura escutic harturic, eta appart retiraturic galde eguin cieçón, Cer duc niri erran beharric?
20 And he said, The Jews have agreed together to ask you, that you bring down Paul to-morrow to the Sanhedrim, as if they would inquire something more accurately concerning him.
Eta harc erran ceçan, Iuduéc ordenatu dié hiri othoitz eguitera, bihar Paul conseillura igorri deçán, hobequiago cerbaitez informatu nahi balirade beçala harçaz:
21 But do not be prevailed on by them; for there are more than forty of them, that lie in ambush for him, who have bound themselves by a curse, neither to eat nor drink, till they have killed him; and they are now ready, expecting this promise from you.
Baina hic eztieceala accorda: ecen hayén artecoric berroguey guiçon baino guehiago haren celata diaudec: vot eguinic maledictionezco penán, eztutela ianen ez edanen hura hil duqueiteno: eta orain prest diaudec, hic cer promettaturen drauèan beguira.
22 The commander, therefore, dismissed the young man, with a charge, Be sure you tell no man, that you have discovered these things to me.
Capitainac bada igor ceçan guiçon gaztea, hari manaturic, nehori ezlerron nola gauça hauc hari dclaratu cerauzcan.
23 And he called too him two of the centurions, and said, Prepare two hundred soldiers, to go to Cesarea; and seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen; by the third hour of the night;
Eta deithuric bi Centenér erran ciecén, Eduquitzaçue prest ber-ehun gendarmés Cesarearano ioaiteco, eta hiruroguey eta hamar çamaldun, eta ber-ehun archer, gauaren heren oreneco.
24 and provide beasts to set Paul upon, and conduct him in safety to Felix, the governor.
Eta den abre prestic, igan eraciric Paul salburic eraman deçatençát Felix gobernadore handiagana.
25 And he wrote an epistle, the contents of which are in this copy:
Eta scriba cietzon letra batzu tenor hunetacoric,
26 Claudius Lysias, to his excellency, Felix, the governor, sends greeting:
Claude Lysiasec Felix gobernadore gucizco excellentari, salutatione.
27 This man was seized by the Jews, and had like to have been slain by them; when I came with a party of soldiers, and rescued him: and I have since learned, that he is a Roman.
Guiçon haur Iuduéz hatzamana, eta ia heçaz hiltzeco cegoela, ethorriric garniçoinarequin edequi diraueat, eçaguturic ecen Romaco burgés cela.
28 And, desiring to know the crime of which they accused him, I brought him before the Sanhedrim,
Eta iaquin nahiz cer causagatic accusatzen lutén, eraman vkan diat hayén conseillura.
29 whom I found to be accused concerning questions of their law, but to have nothing charged upon him worthy of death, or of bonds.
Cein eriden baitut accusatzen cela berén Legueco questionéz, eta herioric edo presoinic mereci luen hoguenic batre etzuela.
30 But when it was signified to me, that an ambush would be laid for the man, by the Jews, I immediately sent him to you, commanding his accusers also to declare before you, what they have against him. Farewell.
Eta aduertitu içanic guiçon huni Iuduéz eguiten çaizcan celatéz, bertan igorri vkan diát hiregana: manamendu eguinic accusaçaley-ere, hunen contretaco dituzten gauçác hire aitzinean erran ditzaten. Vngui aicela.
31 The soldiers, therefore, as it was commanded them, taking up Paul, brought him by night to Antipatris.
Gendarmeséc bada hæy manatu içan çayen beçala, Paul harturic eraman ceçaten gauaz Antipatrisera.
32 And the next day they returned to the castle, leaving the horsemen to go with him:
Eta biharamunean vtziric çamaldunac harequin loacençát, itzul citecen fortaleçara.
33 who, entering into Cesarea, and delivering the epistle to the governor, presented Paul also before him.
Eta hec Cesareara ethorriric eta Gobernadore handiari letrác emanic, Paul-ere haren aitzinera presenta ceçaten.
34 And when he had read the letter, he asked of what province he was: and being informed that he was of Cilicia,
Eta iracurri cituenean Gobernadore handiac letrác, eta cer prouinciataco cen hura interrogatu çuenean, eta eçaguturic ecen Ciliciaco cela:
35 I will hear you, said he, when your accusers are also come. And he commanded him to be kept in Herod's pretorium.
Ençunen aut dio, hire accusaçaleac-ere ethorri diratenean. Eta mana ceçan Herodesen palatioan beguira ledin.
