Acts 26
1 Yet truly, Agrippa said to Paul, “It is permitted for you to speak for yourself.” Then Paul, extending his hand, began to offer his defense.
Kinuna ngarud ni Agripa kenni Pablo, “Mabalinka nga agsao para iti bagim.” Kalpasanna, inyunnat ni Pablo ti imana ken inkalinteganna ti bagina.
2 “I consider myself blessed, O king Agrippa, that I am to give my defense today before you, about everything of which I am accused by the Jews,
“Ibilangko ti bagik a naragsak, Ari Agripa, a mangsungbat iti nakaidarumak iti sangoanam ita nga aldaw, a maibusor kadagiti amin a pammabasol dagiti Judio;
3 especially since you know everything that pertains to the Jews, both customs and questions. Because of this, I beg you to listen to me patiently.
nangnangruna, gapu ta nalaingka kadagiti amin a kaugalian dagiti Judio ken kadagiti saludsod. Isu a dawatek kenka nga anusannak a denggen.
4 And certainly, all the Jews know about my life from my youth, which had its beginning among my own people in Jerusalem.
Pudno, ammo dagiti amin a Judio no kasanoak a nagbiag manipud iti kinaagtutubok iti bukodko a pagilian ken idiay Jerusalem.
5 They knew me well from the beginning, (if they would be willing to offer testimony) for I lived according to the most determined sect of our religion: as a Pharisee.
Am-ammodak manipud pay idi damo ken rumbeng nga aklunenda a nagbiagak a kas Pariseo, maysa a nainget unay a sekta iti relihionmi.
6 And now, it is in the hope of the Promise which was made by God to our fathers that I stand subject to judgment.
Ita agtakderak ditoy tapno maukom gapu ta birbirukek ti kari nga inkari ti Dios kadagiti amaenmi.
7 It is the Promise that our twelve tribes, worshiping night and day, hope to see. About this hope, O king, I am accused by the Jews.
Ta daytoy ti kari a namnamaen dagiti sangapulo ket dua a pulimi a maawatda, iti sipapasnek a panagrukbabda iti Dios iti rabii ken aldaw. Gapu iti daytoy a namnama, Ari Agrippa, nga indarumdak dagiti Judio.
8 Why should it be judged so unbelievable with you all that God might raise the dead?
Apay a panunoten ti siasinoman kadakayo a saan a nakapapati a pagungaren ti Dios dagiti natay?
9 And certainly, I myself formerly considered that I ought to act in many ways which are contrary to the name of Jesus the Nazarene.
Iti maysa a tiempo, impagarupko a masapul nga agaramidak iti adu a banbanag a maibusor iti nagan ni Jesus ti Nasaret.
10 This is also how I acted at Jerusalem. And so, I enclosed many holy persons in prison, having received authority from the leaders of the priests. And when they were to be killed, I brought the sentence.
Inaramidko daytoy idiay Jerusalem; pinaibaludko ti adu a sasanto idiay pagbaludan, ken addaanak iti pammalubos manipud kadagiti panguloen a papadi nga aramidek daytoy; ket idi a napapatayda, intedko pay iti panangayonko iti maibusor kadakuada.
11 And in every synagogue, frequently while punishing them, I compelled them to blaspheme. And being all the more maddened against them, I persecuted them, even to foreign cities.
Masansan iti panangdusak kadakuada kadagiti amin a sinagoga ken pinadasko a pagtabbaawen ida. Kasta unay ti pungtotko kadakuada ket kinamkamatko ida uray pay kadagiti sabali a siudad.
12 Thereafter, as I was going to Damascus, with authority and permission from the high priest,
Kabayatan nga ar-aramidek daytoy, napanak idiay Damasco nga addaan turay ken bilbilin manipud kadagiti panguloen a papadi;
13 at midday, O king, I and those who were also with me, saw along the way a light from heaven shining around me with a splendor greater than that of the sun.
ket iti dalan a mapan sadiay, iti tengga ti aldaw, apo Ari, nakakitaak iti lawag manipud langit a nalawlawag ngem iti init ken linawaganna ti aglawlawmi kadagiti tattao a kaduak nga agdaldaliasat.
14 And when we had all fallen down to the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me in the Hebrew language: ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to kick against the goad.’
Idi natumbakami amin iti daga, nakangngegak iti maysa a timek nga agsasao kaniak a kinunana iti pagsasao a Hebreo, “Saulo, Saulo, apay nga idaddadanesnak? Pakarigatam ti panangkugtarmo iti natirad a ruting.
15 Then I said, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ And the Lord said, ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.
Kalpasanna kinunak, 'Siasinoka, Apo?' Simmungbat ti Apo, 'Siak ni Jesus nga idaddadanesmo.
16 But rise up and stand on your feet. For I appeared to you for this reason: so that I may establish you as a minister and a witness concerning the things that you have seen, and concerning the things that I will show to you:
Ita bumangonka ket tumakderka; nagparangak kenka gapu iti daytoy a panggep, tapno dutokanka nga agbalin nga adipen ken maysa a saksi maipapan kadagiti banbanag nga ammom, maipanggep kaniak ita ken kadagiti banbanag nga ipakitakto kenka iti mabiit;
17 rescuing you from the people and the nations to which I am now sending you,
ken ispalenkanto manipud kadagiti tattao ken manipud kadagiti Hentil a pangibabaonak kenka,
18 in order to open their eyes, so that they may be converted from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive the remission of sins and a place among the saints, through the faith that is in me.’
tapno lukatam dagiti matmatada ken tapno pagtallikudem ida manipud iti sipnget a mapan iti lawag ken manipud iti pannakabalin ni Satanas a maiturongda iti Dios, tapno iti kasta ket maawatda manipud iti Dios ti pammakawan dagiti basbasol ken ti tawid nga intedko kadakuada nga inlasinko para iti bagik babaen iti panamati kaniak.
19 From then on, O king Agrippa, I was not unbelieving to the heavenly vision.
Ngarud, Ari Agrippa, saanko a sinalungasing ti nainlangitan a sirmata;
20 But I preached, first to those who are at Damascus and at Jerusalem, and then to the entire region of Judea, and to the Gentiles, so that they would repent and convert to God, doing the works that are worthy of repentance.
ngem, umuna kadagidiay adda iti Damasco, ken kalpasanna iti Jerusalem, ken iti entero a pagilian ti Judea, ken kasta met kadagiti Hentil, nangasabaak a nasken nga agbabawida ken agsublida iti Dios, nga agaramidda kadagiti banbanag a napateg, a mangipakita iti panagbabawi.
21 It was for this reason that the Jews, having apprehended me when I was in the temple, attempted to kill me.
Ta gapu iti daytoy tiniliwdak dagiti Judio idiay templo ken pinadasdak a patayen.
22 But having been aided by the help of God, even to this day, I stand witnessing to the small and the great, saying nothing beyond what the Prophets and Moses have said would be in the future:
Tinulongannak ti Dios agingga ita, isu nga agtakderak ken ipaduyakyakko kadagiti kadawyan a tattao ken kadagiti natatan-ok ti maipanggep iti ad-adu pay ngem ti imbaga ni Moises ken dagiti profeta a mapasamak,
23 that the Christ would suffer, and that he would be the first from the resurrection of the dead, and that he would bring light to the people and to the nations.”
a masapul nga agsagaba ti Cristo, ken isuna ti umuna a mapagungar manipud iti patay ken iwaragawagna ti silaw kadagiti tattao a Judio ken kadagiti Hentil.
24 While he was speaking these things and presenting his defense, Festus said with a loud voice: “Paul, you are insane! Too much studying has turned you to insanity.”
Idi nalpasen ni Pablo ti panangikalinteganna, binugkawan isuna ni Festo, “Pablo, agmauyongka; pinagbalinnaka nga agmauyong ti nangato nga adalmo.”
25 And Paul said: “I am not insane, most excellent Festus, but rather I am speaking words of truth and sobriety.
Ngem kinuna ni Pablo, “Saanak nga agmauyong, kalaingan a Festo; ngem agsaoak nga addaan tured kadagiti sasao a pudno ken maiparbeng.
26 For the king knows about these things. To him also, I am speaking with constancy. For I think that none of these things are unknown to him. And neither were these things done in a corner.
Ta ammo ti ari ti maipanggep kadagitoy a banbanag; ket isu a nagsaoak a siwawaya kenkuana, ta pudno nga awan kadagitoy ti nailimed manipud kenkuana; ta saan daytoy a nalpas iti suli.
27 Do you believe the Prophets, O king Agrippa? I know that you believe.”
Mamatika kadi dagiti profeta, Ari Agripa? Ammok a mamatika.”
28 Then Agrippa said to Paul, “To some extent, you persuade me to become a Christian.”
Kinuna ni Agripa kenni Pablo, “Allukoyennak kadi iti ababa a tiempo ken pagbalinennak a Kristiano?”
29 And Paul said, “I hope to God that, both to a small extent and to a great extent, not only you, but also all those who hear me this day will become just as I also am, except for these chains.”
Kinuna ni Pablo, “Agkararagak iti Dios, nga uray iti ababa a tiempo, saan laeng koma a sika, ngem uray pay ti amin a dumngeg kaniak ita nga aldaw, ket agbalin a kas kaniak, ngem awanan kadagitoy kawar iti pagbaludan.”
30 And the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and those who were sitting with them.
Kalpasanna, timmakder ti Ari ken ti gobernador ken uray pay ni Bernice, ken dagiti nakitugtugaw kadakuada;
31 And when they had withdrawn, they were speaking among themselves, saying, “This man has done nothing worthy of death, nor of imprisonment.”
idi nakapanawdan iti siled, nagsasaritada ket kinunada, “Awan ti naaramid daytoy a tao a rumbeng a pakatayanna wenno pakaibaludanna.”
32 Then Agrippa said to Festus, “This man could have been released, if he had not appealed to Caesar.”
Kinuna ni Agripa kenni Festo, “Mawayawayaan koma daytoy a tao no saan isuna a kimmamang kenni Cesar.”
