"To this the high priest and all the council of elders are witnesses. It was from them that I received letters to the brothers in Damascus, and I was already on my way to bring those also who were there back to Jerusalem, in bonds, for punishment.

"But when, on my journey, I was nearing Damascus, about noon, suddenly a great light from heaven shone round about me.
7 और आऊँ जमीना पाँदे रूड़ी गा, तेबे मैं ये शब्द सुणेया, ‘ओ शाऊल! ओ शाऊल’ तूँ माखे कऊँ सताणे लगी रा?
"I fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to me, "‘Saul! Saul! why are you persecuting me?’
8 मैं बोलेया, ‘ओ प्रभु! तूँ कुणे ए?’ तिने बोलेया, ‘आऊँ यीशु नासरी ए, जेसखे तूँ सताएया।’

"Now my companions, though they beheld the light, did not hear the words of Him who spoke to me.
10 तेबे मैं बोलेया, ‘ओ प्रभु! आऊँ क्या करुँ?’ प्रभुए माखे बोलेया, ‘उठी की दमिश्को रे जा और जो कुछ तेरे करने राए, तेती ताखे सब कुछ बताया जाणा।’
"And I said, ‘What shall I do, Lord?’ and the Lord said to me, ‘Rise and go into Damascus, and there you will be told about all that you are destined to do.’

"came to me, and standing by me, said to me, "‘Brother Saul, receive your sight’ "In that very hour I regained my sight and looked up at him.
14 तेबे तिने बोलेया कि आसा रे बाप-दादेया रे परमेशरे तूँ इजी री खातर ठराई राखेया; ताकि तूँ तेसरी इच्छा खे जाणे और तेस तर्मिंयों खे देखी सके और तेसरे मुंओ ते गल्ला सुणी सके।
"Then he said. "‘The God of our forefathers has appointed you to know his will; and to see the righteous One, and to hear a voice from his mouth.

"‘For before the face of all men you will be a witness for him of what you have seen and heard.

"I fell into a trance and saw him saying to me, "‘Make haste and go quickly out of Jerusalem, because they will not receive your testimony concerning me.’
19 मैं बोलेया कि ओ प्रभु! तुसे तो जाणोए कि आऊँ तुसा पाँदे विश्वास करने वाल़ेया खे जेला रे पाऊँ था और जगा-जगा प्रार्थना रे कअरो रे कुटवाऊँ था।

"‘and when the blood of your martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by and consenting, and holding the garments of his murders.’
21 और प्रभुए माखे बोलेया, ‘चली जा, कऊँकि मां तूँ दुजिया जातिया गे दूर-दूर पेजणा।’”
"‘Depart,’ he said to me, ‘for I will send you forth, far hence, to the Gentiles.’"
22 सेयो लोक एसा गल्ला तक तेसरी सुणदे रये, तेबे जोरे की बोलणे लगे, “एड़े मांणूए रा अन्त करो, एसरा जिऊँदा रणा ठीक निए।”
Until they heard this last statement, the people were listening to Paul, but now they roared out. "Away with such a fellow from the earth! He is not fit to live!"
23 जेबे सेयो चिंगणे, टाले सेटणे और सर्गो रे तूड़ उड़ाओ थे,
When they continued to shout, throwing their clothes into the air, and flinging dust around,
24 तेबे पल़टणा रे सरदारे बोलेया, “एसखे गढ़ो रे लयी जाओ और कोड़े बाई कि परखो, ताकि माखे बी पता लगो कि लोक किजी री बजअ ते एसरे बिरोदो रे एड़े चिंगणे लगी रे।”
the tribune ordered him to be brought into the barracks, and examined under the lash, to learn for what reason the people were thus crying out against him.
25 जेबे तिने से तसमेया साथे बानेया, तेबे पौलुसे तेस सूबेदारो ते, जो नेड़े था खड़ेया रा बोलेया, “क्या ये ठीक ए कि तुसे एक रोमी मांणूए खे और से बी बिना दोषो ते, कोड़े बाओ?”
But when they had tied him up with the thongs, Paul said to the centurion who was standing near, "If a man is a Roman citizen, and uncondemned, is it lawful for you to scourge him?"
26 सूबेदारे ये सुणी की पल़टणा रे सरदारो गे जाई की बोलेया, “तूँ ये क्या लगी रा करने? ये तो रोमी मांणू ए।”
When the centurion heard that, he went to the tribune and said to him. "What are you intending to do? This man is a Roman citizen."
27 तेबे पल़टणा रे सरदारे तेसगे आयी की बोलेया, “मांगे बता कि क्या तूँ रोमी ए?” तिने बोलेया, “आ।”
So the tribune came to Paul and asked him, "Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?" "Yes," he said.
28 ये सुणी की पल़टणा रे सरदारे बोलेया, “मैं रोमी ऊणे रा पद बऊत पैसे देई की पाई राखेया।” पौलुसे बोलेया, “आऊँ तो जन्मो तेई रोमी ए।”
"I paid a large sum to get this citizenship," said the tribune. "But I was citizen-born," said Paul.
29 तेबे सेयो लोक जो तेसखे परखणे वाल़े थे। सेयो फटाफट तेसगे ते आटी गे और पल़टणा रा सरदार बी ये जाणी की कि ये रोमी ए और मैं ये बानी राखेया, डरीगा।
Then those who were about to scourge him, immediately left him. And the tribune too, was afraid, when he learned that Paul was a Roman citizen, for he had had him bound.
30 दूजे दिने से ठीक-ठीक जाणने री इच्छा ते कि यहूदी तेस पाँदे कऊँ दोष लगाणे लगी रे, तेसरे बन्दन खोली ते और बड़े पुरोईत और सारी सभा खे कट्ठे ऊणे री आज्ञा दित्ती और पौलुस थाले ल्याई की तिना सामणे खड़ा करी ता।
The next day, as he wished to learn the real reason why the Jews accused Paul, he unbound him, and commanded the chief priests and all the Sanhedrin to come together, and brought Paul down, and placed him before them.
