Dagiti Aramid 25
1 Ita, simrek ni Festo iti probinsia, ken kalpasan iti tallo nga aldaw, simmang-at isuna idiay Jerusalem manipud Cesarea.
Festus therefore having come into the province, after three days went up from Caesarea to Jerusalem.
2 Nangiyeg dagiti panguloen a padi ken dagiti mabigbigbig a Judio kadagiti pammabasol a maibusor ken Pablo kenni Festo, ken nagsaoda a sipipigsa kenni Festo.
And the chief priests and the leaders of the Jews brought a complaint before him against Paul, and besought him,
3 Ken nagdawatda iti tulong kenni Festo iti maipapan kenni Pablo, bareng no ayabanna idiay Jerusalem tapno iti kasta ket mabalinda a patayen isuna iti dalan.
asking for themselves a favor against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, intending to place men in wait to kill him on the road.
4 Ngem insungbat ni Festo a ni Pablo ket balud idiay Cesarea, ket iti mabiit, agsubli isuna sadiay.
But Festus answered that Paul was in custody at Caesarea, and that he himself was going thither shortly.
5 “Ngarud, kadagidiay makabael,” kinunana, “masapul a makisurot kadakami sadiay. No adda man ti banag a saan a nasayaat iti dayta a tao, masapul nga idarumyo isuna.”
Let those therefore, said he, who have authority among you, go down with me and accuse this man, if he is guilty of anything.
6 Kalpasan a nagtalinaed isuna iti walo wenno sangapulo pay nga aldaw, bimmaba isuna idiay Cesarea. Ket iti simmaruno nga aldaw, nagtugaw isuna iti tugaw iti pangukoman ket imbilinna a maiyeg ni Pablo kenkuana.
And having tarried among them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea; and on the morrow, sitting on the judgment-seat, ordered Paul to be brought.
7 Idi simmangpet isuna, agtaktakder iti asideg dagiti Judio a naggapu idiay Jerusalem, ket nangyegda iti adu a nadagsen a pammabasol a saanda a mapaneknekan.
And when he had come, the Jews who came down from Jerusalem stood around, bringing many and heavy charges which they could not prove;
8 Inkalintegan ni Pablo iti bagina ken kinunana, “Saan a maibusor iti nagan dagiti Judio, saan a maibusor iti templo, ken saan a maibusor kenni Cesar, adda kadi iti naaramidko a dakes.”
while Paul said in his defence, Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I committed any offence.
9 Ngem kayat ni Festo a maalana ti rikna dagiti Judio, ket sinungbatanna ngarud ni Pablo a kinunana, “Kayatmo kadi iti sumang-at idiay Jerusalem ken tapno maukomka babaen kaniak maipanggep kadagitoy a banbanag sadiay?
But Festus, wishing to gain favor with the Jews, answered Paul and said, Art thou willing to go up to Jerusalem, and there be tried on these charges before me?
10 Kinuna ni Pablo, “Agtaktakderak iti sangoanan iti tugaw a pangukoman ni Cesar a rumbeng a pakaukomak. Awan iti nagkamaliak kadagiti Judio, kas ammoyo met a nalaing.
But Paul said, I stand at the judgment-seat of Caesar, where I ought to be tried. To the Jews I have done no wrong, as thou also very well knowest.
11 Ngem no nakaaramidak iti dakes ken no nakaaramidak iti banag a pakaikariak iti pannakatay, saanak nga agkedked a matay. Ngem no dagiti pammabasolda ket awan kinapudnona, awan iti siasinoman a mabalin a mangiyawat kaniak kadakuada. Umawagak kenni Cesar.”
If indeed I am an offender, and have done anything deserving death, I refuse not to die; but if there be nothing in the charges which they bring against me, no man can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar.
12 Ket nakisarita ni Festo iti konseho, ken kalpasanna simmungbat isuna, “Immawagka ken ni Cesar; mapankanto ken ni Cesar.”
Then Festus having conferred with the council, answered, Thou hast appealed to Caesar; to Caesar shalt thou go.
13 Ita kalpasan iti sumagmamano nga aldaw, simmangpet da Ari Agripa ken Bernice idiay Cesarea tapno agipaay iti opisial a panangsarungkar kenni Festo.
And after some days Agrippa the king and Bernice came to Caesarea to greet Festus.
14 Kalpasan nga adda isuna idiay iti adu nga aldaw, imparang ni Festo ti nakaidaruman ni Pablo iti ari; kinunana, “Adda maysa a lalaki nga imbati ni Felix ditoy a kas balud.
And while they were making a stay of some days there, Festus laid the case of Paul before the king, saying, There is a certain man left in bonds by Felix,
15 Idi addaak idiay Jerusalem, nangiyeg kaniak dagiti panguloen a papadi ken dagiti panglakayen dagiti Judio kadagiti pammabasol a maibusor iti daytoy a tao, ken dinawatda iti pannakaikeddeng a maibusor kenkuana.
against whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews brought a complaint, asking for judgment against him.
16 Iti daytoy, simmungbatak a saan a kaugalian dagiti Romano a mangiyawat iti tao a kas pabor; ngem ketdi, rumbeng nga adda iti gundaway iti naidarum a tao a mangsango kadagiti nangidarum kenkuana tapno maikalinteganna ti bagina a maibusor kadagiti pammabasol.”
To whom I answered, It is not the custom of the Romans to give up any man on a charge, before the accused hath the accusers face to face, and hath opportunity to answer for himself concerning the crime laid against him.
17 Ngarud, idi immayda nga agkakadua ditoy, saanak a naguray, ngem iti simmaruno nga aldaw nagtugawak iti tugaw iti pangukoman ket imbilinko a maiyeg dayta a tao.
When therefore they had come together here, without any delay I sat on the judgment-seat on the day after, and ordered the man to be brought forward.
18 Idi timmakder dagiti nangidarum ken inakusaranda isuna, napanunotko nga awan iti nadagsen kadagiti pammabasol nga inyegda a maibusor kenkuana.
And his accusers standing around him brought no accusation of such things as I had conjectured,
19 No di ket, adda laeng iti saanda a pagkikinnaawatan maipapan iti bukodda a relihion ken maipapan iti maysa nga agnagan Jesus a natayen, nga ibagbaga ni Pablo a sibibiag.
but had against him certain questions of their own religion, and of one Jesus that was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.
20 Maburburtiaanak iti maipanggep iti daytoy, no kasanok a palutputen iti daytoy a banag, ken dinamagko kenkuana no mapan idiay Jerusalem tapno maukom sadiay maipanggep kadagitoy a banbanag.
And I being at a loss about such questions, asked him if he was willing to go to Jerusalem and there be put on trial for these matters.
21 Ngem idi dinawat ni Pablo a maguardiaan pay laeng agingga iti panangikeddeng kenkuana ti Emperador, imbilinko nga agtalinaed isuna a sibabalud agingga nga ibaonko isuna kenni Cesar.
But Paul having appealed to be kept in custody for the judgment of Augustus, I ordered him to be kept till I should send him up to Caesar.
22 Nagsao ni Agripa kenni Festo, “Kayatko met iti dumngeg iti daytoy a tao.” “Inton bigat,” Kinuna ni Festo, “Mangngegmonto isuna.”
Then Agrippa said to Festus, I should like to hear the man myself. Tomorrow, said he, thou shalt hear him.
23 Isu nga iti simmaruno nga aldaw, immay ni Agripa ken ni Bernice nga adda ti adu a seremonia; immayda idiay pangukoman a kaduada dagiti opisyal dagiti soldado ken dagiti mabigbigbig a tao iti siudad. Ket idi insao ni Festo ti bilin, naiyeg ni Pablo kadakuada.
Accordingly on the morrow Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp, and entered into the place of hearing, with the chief captains and principal men of the city, and at the order of Festus Paul was brought forward.
24 Kinuna ni Festo, “Ari Agripa, ken kadakayo amin a lallaki nga adda kadakami ditoy, makitayo daytoy a lalaki; nakiyuman kaniak dagiti amin a Judio idiay Jerusalem ken uray met ditoy, ken impukkawda kaniak a saanen a rumbeng nga agbiag daytoy a tao.
And Festus said: King Agrippa, and all men who are here present with us! Ye see this man about whom the whole multitude of the Jews applied to me both at Jerusalem and here, crying out that he ought no longer to live.
25 Ngem naadalko nga awan iti naaramidna a rumbeng a pakatayanna; ngem gapu ta immawag isuna iti Emperador, inkeddengko nga ibaon isuna.
But having found that he had done nothing deserving death, and he himself having appealed to Augustus, I determined to send him;
26 Ngem awan ti ammok nga uray ania nga isuratko iti Emperador. Gapu iti daytoy, inyegko isuna kadakayo, nangnangruna kenka, Ari Agripa tapno adda koma iti maisuratko maipanggep iti nakaidarumanna.
and as I have nothing certain to write about him to the emperor, I have brought him forward before you, and specially before thee, king Agrippa, that when the examination hath been made, I may have something to write.
27 Ta makitak a saan a rumbeng a mangibaonak iti balud ken saanko pay nga ipablaak dagiti pammabasol a maibusor kenkuana.”
For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner and not signify the charges against him;
