Acts 22
1 Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defense [which I make] now to you.
| ہے پِترِگَنا ہے بھْراترِگَناح، اِدانِیں مَمَ نِویدَنے سَمَوَدھَتَّ۔ |
2 (And when they heard that he spoke to them in the Hebrew language, they kept the more silence: and he saith, )
| تَدا سَ اِبْرِییَبھاشَیا کَتھاں کَتھَیَتِیتِ شْرُتْوا سَرْوّے لوکا اَتِیوَ نِحشَبْدا سَنْتوتِشْٹھَنْ۔ |
3 I am verily a man [who am] a Jew, born in Tarsus, [a city] in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, [and] taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, being zealous towards God, as ye all are this day.
| پَشْچاتْ سوکَتھَیَدْ اَہَں یِہُودِییَ اِتِ نِشْچَیَح کِلِکِیادیشَسْیَ تارْشَنَگَرَں مَمَ جَنْمَبھُومِح،ایتَنَّگَرِییَسْیَ گَمِلِیییلَنامْنودھْیاپَکَسْیَ شِشْیو بھُوتْوا پُورْوَّپُرُشاناں وِدھِوْیَوَسْتھانُسارینَ سَمْپُورْنَرُوپینَ شِکْشِتوبھَوَمْ اِدانِینْتَنا یُویَں یادرِشا بھَوَتھَ تادرِشوہَمَپِیشْوَرَسیوایامْ اُدْیوگِی جاتَح۔ |
4 And I persecuted this way even to death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.
| مَتَمیتَدْ دْوِشْٹْوا تَدْگْراہِنارِیپُرُشانْ کارایاں بَدّھوا تیشاں پْرانَناشَپَرْیَّنْتاں وِپَکْشَتامْ اَکَرَوَمْ۔ |
5 As also the high priest doth bear me testimony, and all the estate of the elders; from whom also I received letters to the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them who were there bound to Jerusalem, to be punished.
| مَہایاجَکَح سَبھاسَدَح پْراچِینَلوکاشْچَ مَمَیتَسْیاح کَتھایاح پْرَمانَں داتُں شَکْنُوَنْتِ، یَسْماتْ تیشاں سَمِیپادْ دَمّیشَکَنَگَرَنِواسِبھْراترِگَنارْتھَمْ آجْناپَتْرانِ گرِہِیتْوا یے تَتْرَ سْتھِتاسْتانْ دَنْڈَیِتُں یِرُوشالَمَمْ آنَیَنارْتھَں دَمّیشَکَنَگَرَں گَتوسْمِ۔ |
6 And it came to pass, that as I was passing on my journey, and had come nigh to Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light around me.
| کِنْتُ گَچّھَنْ تَنَّگَرَسْیَ سَمِیپَں پْراپْتَوانْ تَدا دْوِتِییَپْرَہَرَویلایاں سَتْیامْ اَکَسْمادْ گَگَنانِّرْگَتْیَ مَہَتِی دِیپْتِ رْمَمَ چَتُرْدِشِ پْرَکاشِتَوَتِی۔ |
7 And I fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
| تَتو مَیِ بھُومَو پَتِتے سَتِ، ہے شَولَ ہے شَولَ کُتو ماں تاڈَیَسِ؟ مامْپْرَتِ بھاشِتَ ایتادرِشَ ایکو رَووپِ مَیا شْرُتَح۔ |
8 And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said to me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.
| تَداہَں پْرَتْیَوَدَں، ہے پْرَبھے کو بھَوانْ؟ تَتَح سووادِیتْ یَں تْوَں تاڈَیَسِ سَ ناسَرَتِییو یِیشُرَہَں۔ |
9 And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spoke to me.
| مَمَ سَنْگِنو لوکاسْتاں دِیپْتِں درِشْٹْوا بھِیَں پْراپْتاح، کِنْتُ مامْپْرَتْیُدِتَں تَدْواکْیَں تے نابُدھْیَنْتَ۔ |
10 And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said to me, Arise, and go into Damascus, and there it shall be told thee concerning all things which are appointed for thee to do.
| تَتَح پَرَں پرِشْٹَوانَہَں، ہے پْرَبھو مَیا کِں کَرْتَّوْیَں؟ تَتَح پْرَبھُرَکَتھَیَتْ، اُتّھایَ دَمّیشَکَنَگَرَں یاہِ تْوَیا یَدْیَتْ کَرْتَّوْیَں نِرُوپِتَماسْتے تَتْ تَتْرَ تْوَں جْناپَیِشْیَسے۔ |
11 And when I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of them that were with me, I came into Damascus.
| اَنَنْتَرَں تَسْیاح کھَرَتَرَدِیپْتیح کارَناتْ کِمَپِ نَ درِشْٹْوا سَنْگِگَنینَ دھرِتَہَسْتَح سَنْ دَمّیشَکَنَگَرَں وْرَجِتَوانْ۔ |
12 And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews who dwelt [there],
| تَنَّگَرَنِواسِناں سَرْوّیشاں یِہُودِییاناں مانْیو وْیَوَسْتھانُسارینَ بھَکْتَشْچَ ہَنانِییَناما مانَوَ ایکو |
13 Came to me, and stood, and said to me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him.
| مَمَ سَنِّدھِمْ ایتْیَ تِشْٹھَنْ اَکَتھَیَتْ، ہے بھْراتَح شَولَ سُدرِشْٹِ رْبھَوَ تَسْمِنْ دَنْڈےہَں سَمْیَکْ تَں درِشْٹَوانْ۔ |
14 And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldst know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldst hear the voice of his mouth.
| تَتَح سَ مَہْیَں کَتھِتَوانْ یَتھا تْوَمْ اِیشْوَرَسْیابھِپْرایَں ویتْسِ تَسْیَ شُدّھَسَتّوَجَنَسْیَ دَرْشَنَں پْراپْیَ تَسْیَ شْرِیمُکھَسْیَ واکْیَں شرِنوشِ تَنِّمِتَّمْ اَسْماکَں پُورْوَّپُرُشانامْ اِیشْوَرَسْتْواں مَنونِیتَں کرِتَوانَں۔ |
15 For thou shalt be his witness to all men of what thou hast seen and heard.
| یَتو یَدْیَدْ اَدْراکْشِیرَشْرَوشِیشْچَ سَرْوّیشاں مانَواناں سَمِیپے تْوَں تیشاں ساکْشِی بھَوِشْیَسِ۔ |
16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
| اَتَایوَ کُتو وِلَمْبَسے؟ پْرَبھو رْنامْنا پْرارْتھْیَ نِجَپاپَپْرَکْشالَنارْتھَں مَجَّنایَ سَمُتِّشْٹھَ۔ |
17 And it came to pass, that when I had come again to Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance;
| تَتَح پَرَں یِرُوشالَمْنَگَرَں پْرَتْیاگَتْیَ مَنْدِرےہَمْ ایکَدا پْرارْتھَیے، تَسْمِنْ سَمَیےہَمْ اَبھِبھُوتَح سَنْ پْرَبھُوں ساکْشاتْ پَشْیَنْ، |
18 And saw him saying to me, Make haste, and depart quickly from Jerusalem; for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.
| تْوَں تْوَرَیا یِرُوشالَمَح پْرَتِشْٹھَسْوَ یَتو لوکامَیِ تَوَ ساکْشْیَں نَ گْرَہِیشْیَنْتِ، مامْپْرَتْیُدِتَں تَسْییدَں واکْیَمْ اَشْرَوشَمْ۔ |
19 And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned, and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee:
| تَتوہَں پْرَتْیَوادِشَمْ ہے پْرَبھو پْرَتِبھَجَنَبھَوَنَں تْوَیِ وِشْواسِنو لوکانْ بَدّھوا پْرَہرِتَوانْ، |
20 And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting to his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew him.
| تَتھا تَوَ ساکْشِنَح سْتِپھانَسْیَ رَکْتَپاتَنَسَمَیے تَسْیَ وِناشَں سَمَّنْیَ سَنِّدھَو تِشْٹھَنْ ہَنْترِلوکاناں واساںسِ رَکْشِتَوانْ، ایتَتْ تے وِدُح۔ |
21 And he said to me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence to the Gentiles.
| تَتَح سوکَتھَیَتْ پْرَتِشْٹھَسْوَ تْواں دُورَسْتھَبھِنَّدیشِییاناں سَمِیپَں پْریشَیِشْیے۔ |
22 And they gave him audience to this word, and [then] lifted up their voices, and said, Away with such a [man] from the earth: for it is not fit that he should live.
| تَدا لوکا ایتاوَتْپَرْیَّنْتاں تَدِییاں کَتھاں شْرُتْوا پْروچَّیرَکَتھَیَنْ، اینَں بھُومَنْڈَلادْ دُورِیکُرُتَ، ایتادرِشَجَنَسْیَ جِیوَنَں نوچِتَمْ۔ |
23 And as they cried out, and cast off [their] clothes, and threw dust into the air,
| اِتْیُچَّیح کَتھَیِتْوا وَسَنانِ پَرِتْیَجْیَ گَگَنَں پْرَتِ دھُولِیرَکْشِپَنْ |
24 The chief captain commanded him to be brought into the castle, and bade that he should be examined by scourging; that he might know for what cause they cried so against him.
| تَتَح سَہَسْرَسیناپَتِح پَولَں دُرْگابھْیَنْتَرَ نیتُں سَمادِشَتْ۔ ایتَسْیَ پْرَتِکُولاح سَنْتو لوکاح کِنِّمِتَّمْ ایتاوَدُچَّیحسْوَرَمْ اَکُرْوَّنْ، ایتَدْ ویتُّں تَں کَشَیا پْرَہرِتْیَ تَسْیَ پَرِیکْشاں کَرْتُّمادِشَتْ۔ |
25 And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said to the centurion that stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and uncondemned?
| پَداتَیَشْچَرْمَّنِرْمِّتَرَجُّبھِسْتَسْیَ بَنْدھَنَں کَرْتُّمُدْیَتاسْتاسْتَدانِیں پَولَح سَمُّکھَسْتھِتَں شَتَسیناپَتِمْ اُکْتَوانْ دَنْڈاجْنایامْ اَپْراپْتایاں کِں رومِلوکَں پْرَہَرْتُّں یُشْماکَمْ اَدھِکاروسْتِ؟ |
26 When the centurion heard [that], he went and told the chief captain, saying, Take heed what thou doest; for this man is a Roman.
| ایناں کَتھاں شْرُتْوا سَ سَہَسْرَسیناپَتیح سَنِّدھِں گَتْوا تاں وارْتّامَوَدَتْ سَ رومِلوکَ ایتَسْماتْ ساوَدھانَح سَنْ کَرْمَّ کُرُ۔ |
27 Then the chief captain came, and said to him, Tell me, art thou a Roman? He said, Yes.
| تَسْماتْ سَہَسْرَسیناپَتِ رْگَتْوا تَمَپْراکْشِیتْ تْوَں کِں رومِلوکَح؟ اِتِ ماں بْرُوہِ۔ سوکَتھَیَتْ سَتْیَمْ۔ |
28 And the chief captain answered, With a great sum I obtained this freedom. And Paul said, But I was [free] born.
| تَتَح سَہَسْرَسیناپَتِح کَتھِتَوانْ بَہُدْرَوِنَں دَتّواہَں تَتْ پَورَسَکھْیَں پْراپْتَوانْ؛ کِنْتُ پَولَح کَتھِتَوانْ اَہَں جَنُنا تَتْ پْراپْتوسْمِ۔ |
29 Then forthwith they departed from him who were about to examine him: and the chief captain also was afraid, after he knew that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him.
| اِتّھَں سَتِ یے پْرَہارینَ تَں پَرِیکْشِتُں سَمُدْیَتا آسَنْ تے تَسْیَ سَمِیپاتْ پْراتِشْٹھَنْتَ؛ سَہَسْرَسیناپَتِسْتَں رومِلوکَں وِجْنایَ سْوَیَں یَتْ تَسْیَ بَنْدھَنَمْ اَکارْشِیتْ تَتْکارَنادْ اَبِبھیتْ۔ |
30 On the morrow, because he would have known the certainty why he was accused by the Jews, he loosed him from [his] bands, and commanded the chief priests and all their council to appear, and brought Paul down, and set him before them.
| یِہُودِییَلوکاح پَولَں کُتوپَوَدَنْتے تَسْیَ ورِتّانْتَں جْناتُں وانْچھَنْ سَہَسْرَسیناپَتِح پَرےہَنِ پَولَں بَنْدھَناتْ موچَیِتْوا پْرَدھانَیاجَکانْ مَہاسَبھایاح سَرْوَّلوکاشْچَ سَمُپَسْتھاتُمْ آدِشْیَ تیشاں سَنِّدھَو پَولَمْ اَوَروہْیَ سْتھاپِتَوانْ۔ |
