Acts 24
1 And after five days came down the chief priest Ananias, with the elders, and a certain orator — Tertullus, and they made manifest to the governor [the things] against Paul;
Po petih dneh pa je prišel dol Hananija, véliki duhovnik, s starešinami in z nekim govornikom po imenu Tertúl, ki je voditelja poučil zoper Pavla.
2 and he having been called, Tertullus began to accuse [him], saying, 'Much peace enjoying through thee, and worthy deeds being done to this nation through thy forethought,
In ko je bil le-ta poklican, ga je Tertúl začel obtoževati, rekoč: »Glede na to, da po tebi uživamo veliko spokojnost in da so po tvoji previdnosti temu narodu storjena zelo plemenita dejanja,
3 always, also, and everywhere we receive it, most noble Felix, with all thankfulness;
to priznavamo vedno in na vseh krajih, najplemenitejši Feliks, z vso hvaležnostjo.
4 and that I may not be further tedious to thee, I pray thee to hear us concisely in thy gentleness;
Vendar da te ne bom še bolj zadrževal, te prosim, da nam po svoji dobrotljivosti prisluhneš nekaj besed.
5 for having found this man a pestilence, and moving a dissension to all the Jews through the world — a ringleader also of the sect of the Nazarenes —
Kajti tega človeka smo spoznali [za] kužnega in povzročitelja upora med vsemi Judi po vsem svetu in kolovodja ločine Nazarečanov,
6 who also the temple did try to profane, whom also we took, and according to our law did wish to judge,
ki je poskušal oskruniti tudi tempelj; ki smo prijeli in hoteli soditi glede na našo postavo.
7 and Lysias the chief captain having come near, with much violence, out of our hands did take away,
Vendar je nad nas prišel vrhovni poveljnik Lizija in ga z veliko silo odvedel iz naših rok
8 having commanded his accusers to come to thee, from whom thou mayest be able, thyself having examined, to know concerning all these things of which we accuse him;'
in njegovim tožnikom velel, da pridejo k tebi; s čigar zasliševanjem si boš lahko pridobil spoznanje o vseh teh stvareh, česar ga obtožujemo.«
9 and the Jews also agreed, professing these things to be so.
In tudi Judje so soglašali, rekoč, da so bile te stvari takšne.
10 And Paul answered — the governor having beckoned to him to speak — 'Knowing [that] for many years thou hast been a judge to this nation, the more cheerfully the things concerning myself I do answer;
Nató je Pavel, potem ko mu je voditelj dal znamenje, da govori, odgovoril: »Ker vem, da si bil že mnogo let sodnik temu narodu, se še bolj vedro zagovarjam,
11 thou being able to know that it is not more than twelve days to me since I went up to worship in Jerusalem,
zato, da boš lahko razumel, da je šele dvanajst dni, odkar sem odšel gor v Jeruzalem, da bi oboževal.
12 and neither in the temple did they find me reasoning with any one, or making a dissension of the multitude, nor in the synagogues, nor in the city;
In niti me niso našli v templju razpravljati s katerimkoli človekom niti podpihovati množice, ne v sinagogah ne v mestu.
13 nor are they able to prove against me the things concerning which they now accuse me.
Niti ne morejo dokazati besed, s katerimi me sedaj obtožujejo.
14 'And I confess this to thee, that, according to the way that they call a sect, so serve I the God of the fathers, believing all things that in the law and the prophets have been written,
Toda to ti priznam, da po poti, ki ji pravijo kriva vera, na ta način obožujem Boga svojih očetov in verujem vse stvari, ki so zapisane v postavi in prerokih,
15 having hope toward God, which they themselves also wait for, [that] there is about to be a rising again of the dead, both of righteous and unrighteous;
in upanje imam v Boga, ki ga tudi sami dopuščajo, da bo vstajenje mrtvih, tako pravičnih kakor nepravičnih.
16 and in this I do exercise myself, to have a conscience void of offence toward God and men always.
In v tem sebe vežbam, da imam vest nenehno povsem brez prestopka pred Bogom in pred ljudmi.
17 'And after many years I came, about to do kind acts to my nation, and offerings,
Torej po mnogih letih sem prišel, da svojemu narodu prinesem miloščine in daritve.
18 in which certain Jews from Asia did find me purified in the temple, not with multitude, nor with tumult,
Nakar so me neki Judje iz Azije našli v templju očiščenega, niti skupaj z množico niti s hrupom.
19 whom it behoveth to be present before thee, and to accuse, if they had anything against me,
Ki bi morali biti tukaj pred teboj in ugovarjati, če bi imeli karkoli zoper mene.
20 or let these same say if they found any unrighteousness in me in my standing before the sanhedrim,
Sicer naj ti isti tukaj povedo, če so našli na meni kakršnokoli zlo dejanje, medtem ko sem stal pred vélikim zborom,
21 except concerning this one voice, in which I cried, standing among them — Concerning a rising again of the dead I am judged to-day by you.'
razen, če je to zaradi tistega enega glasu, ko sem med njimi stal in vzkliknil: ›Gledé vstajenja mrtvih ste me danes poklicali na zaslišanje.‹«
22 And having heard these things, Felix delayed them — having known more exactly of the things concerning the way — saying, 'When Lysias the chief captain may come down, I will know fully the things concerning you;'
In ko je Feliks, ki je imel popolnejše spoznanje o tej poti, slišal te besede, jih je preložil ter rekel: »Ko bo prišel dol vrhovni poveljnik Lizija, bom spoznal vse o vaši zadevi.«
23 having given also a direction to the centurion to keep Paul, to let [him] also have liberty, and to forbid none of his own friends to minister or to come near to him.
In stotniku je ukazal, da varuje Pavla in mu pusti imeti prostost in da naj nikomur od njegovih znancev ne bi prepovedal streči ali priti k njemu.
24 And after certain days, Felix having come with Drusilla his wife, being a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith toward Christ,
In po nekaj dneh, ko je prišel Feliks s svojo ženo Druzílo, ki je bila Judinja, je poklical Pavla in ga poslušal glede vere v Kristusa.
25 and he reasoning concerning righteousness, and temperance, and the judgment that is about to be, Felix, having become afraid, answered, 'For the present be going, and having got time, I will call for thee;'
In ko je razpravljal o pravičnosti, zmernosti in sodbi, ki pride, je Feliks zatrepetal in odgovoril: »Za sedaj pojdi svojo pot. Ko bom imel primeren čas, te bom poklical.«
26 and at the same time also hoping that money shall be given to him by Paul, that he may release him, therefore, also sending for him the oftener, he was conversing with him;
Upal je tudi, da bi mu bil od Pavla dan denar, da bi ga lahko osvobodil, zaradi česar ga je pogosteje poklical in se posvetoval z njim.
27 and two years having been fulfilled, Felix received a successor, Porcius Festus; Felix also willing to lay a favour on the Jews, left Paul bound.
Toda po dveh letih pa je na Feliksovo mesto prišel Porkij Fest. Feliks pa, voljan ustreči Judom, je Pavla pustil zvezanega.
