Acts 25
1 Festus therefore, being come into the province, after three days went up from Cesarea to Jerusalem.
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 high-priest and principal men among the Jews, appeared before him against Paul, and made application to 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 begging the favor of him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem; for they were preparing an ambush to kill him by 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 But Festus answered, that Paul was in custody at Cesarea, and that he himself should go thither soon.
I mai la o Peseto, ma Kaisareia e malamaia'i o Paulo, a oia iho no e hoi koke aku ilaila.
5 Therefore, said he, let those of you who are able, go down with me, and if there be any thing bad 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 when he had staid among them more than ten days, he went down to Cesarea, and the next day sitting on the tribunal, he commanded Paul to be brought before him.
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 when he was come, the Jews that came down from Jerusalem, stood round about, bringing many heavy charges 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 answering in his own defence, Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Cesar have I committed any offence.
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 But Festus, being desirous to gain favor with the Jews, answered Paul and said, Art thou willing to go up to Jerusalem, and there to be tried concerning these things before me?
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 Then said Paul, I stand at Cesar's tribunal, where I ought to be tried: I have done no wrong to the Jews, as thou very well knowest.
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 doing them wrong, and have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there be nothing in what these men accuse me of, no one can give me up to them.
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 I appeal to Cesar. Then Festus, conferring with his council, answered, Hast thou appealed to Cesar? to Cesar thou shalt 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 some days after king Agrippa and Bernice came to Cesarea to salute 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 spent several days there, Festus related Paul's case to the king, saying, There is a man left in custody by Felix: concerning whom,
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 when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews appeared in court, desiring judgement 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, it is not the custom of the Romans to give up any man to destruction, till he that is accused have the accusers face to face, and have an opportunity of making his defence concerning the accusation.
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 Therefore when they were come hither, making no delay, I sat on the tribunal the next day, and ordered the man to be brought before me.
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 Against whom, when the accusers stood up, they brought no charge of such things as I supposed they would:
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 had certain questions against him concerning their own religion; and of one Jesus that 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 But I being in doubt as to the dispute concerning these matters, asked him, if he would go to Jerusalem, and there be tried 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 when Paul appealed, to be reserved to the hearing of our sovereign, I ordered him to be kept till I could send him to Cesar.
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 Then Agrippa said to Festus, I should be willing to hear the man myself. And he said, thou shalt hear him to-morrow.
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 The next day therefore, Agrippa and Bernice coming with much pomp, and entering into the court, together with the chief officers, and men of greatest eminence in the city, at the command of Festus Paul was brought in.
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 that are here present with us, ye see this man, concerning whom all the Jews have applied to me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying out, that he ought not to live.
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 But when I found that he had done nothing worthy of death, and as he himself has appealed to the emperor, I have determined 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 nothing certain to write to our sovereign: wherefore I have brought him out before you, and especially before thee, O king Agrippa, that after examination is made I may have somewhat 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 absurd, to send a prisoner and not to signify the crimes laid 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.
