Acts 22
1 Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence which I make now to you.
ཧེ པིཏྲྀགཎཱ ཧེ བྷྲཱཏྲྀགཎཱཿ, ཨིདཱནཱིཾ མམ ནིཝེདནེ སམཝདྷཏྟ།
2 And when they heard that he spoke to them in the Hebrew language, they kept the more silence: and he saith, )
ཏདཱ ས ཨིབྲཱིཡབྷཱཥཡཱ ཀཐཱཾ ཀཐཡཏཱིཏི ཤྲུཏྭཱ སཪྻྭེ ལོཀཱ ཨཏཱིཝ ནིཿཤབྡཱ སནྟོ྅ཏིཥྛན྄།
3 I am verily a man who is a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, being zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.
པཤྩཱཏ྄ སོ྅ཀཐཡད྄ ཨཧཾ ཡིཧཱུདཱིཡ ཨིཏི ནིཤྩཡཿ ཀིལིཀིཡཱདེཤསྱ ཏཱརྵནགརཾ མམ ཛནྨབྷཱུམིཿ, ཨེཏནྣགརཱིཡསྱ གམིལཱིཡེལནཱམྣོ྅དྷྱཱཔཀསྱ ཤིཥྱོ བྷཱུཏྭཱ པཱུཪྻྭཔུརུཥཱཎཱཾ ཝིདྷིཝྱཝསྠཱནུསཱརེཎ སམྤཱུརྞརཱུཔེཎ ཤིཀྵིཏོ྅བྷཝམ྄ ཨིདཱནཱིནྟནཱ ཡཱུཡཾ ཡཱདྲྀཤཱ བྷཝཐ ཏཱདྲྀཤོ྅ཧམཔཱིཤྭརསེཝཱཡཱམ྄ ཨུདྱོགཱི ཛཱཏཿ།
4 And I persecuted this way to the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.
མཏམེཏད྄ དྭིཥྚྭཱ ཏདྒྲཱཧིནཱརཱིཔུརུཥཱན྄ ཀཱརཱཡཱཾ བདྡྷྭཱ ཏེཥཱཾ པྲཱཎནཱཤཔཪྻྱནྟཱཾ ཝིཔཀྵཏཱམ྄ ཨཀརཝམ྄།
5 As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the council of the elders: from whom also I received letters to the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them who were there bound to Jerusalem, to be punished.
མཧཱཡཱཛཀཿ སབྷཱསདཿ པྲཱཙཱིནལོཀཱཤྩ མམཻཏསྱཱཿ ཀཐཱཡཱཿ པྲམཱཎཾ དཱཏུཾ ཤཀྣུཝནྟི, ཡསྨཱཏ྄ ཏེཥཱཾ སམཱིཔཱད྄ དམྨེཥཀནགརནིཝཱསིབྷྲཱཏྲྀགཎཱརྠམ྄ ཨཱཛྙཱཔཏྲཱཎི གྲྀཧཱིཏྭཱ ཡེ ཏཏྲ སྠིཏཱསྟཱན྄ དཎྜཡིཏུཾ ཡིརཱུཤཱལམམ྄ ཨཱནཡནཱརྠཾ དམྨེཥཀནགརཾ གཏོསྨི།
6 And it came to pass, that, as I was on my journey, and had come near to Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light around me.
ཀིནྟུ གཙྪན྄ ཏནྣགརསྱ སམཱིཔཾ པྲཱཔྟཝཱན྄ ཏདཱ དྭིཏཱིཡཔྲཧརཝེལཱཡཱཾ སཏྱཱམ྄ ཨཀསྨཱད྄ གགཎཱནྣིརྒཏྱ མཧཏཱི དཱིཔྟི རྨམ ཙཏུརྡིཤི པྲཀཱཤིཏཝཏཱི།
7 And I fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
ཏཏོ མཡི བྷཱུམཽ པཏིཏེ སཏི, ཧེ ཤཽལ ཧེ ཤཽལ ཀུཏོ མཱཾ ཏཱཌཡསི? མཱམྤྲཏི བྷཱཥིཏ ཨེཏཱདྲྀཤ ཨེཀོ རཝོཔི མཡཱ ཤྲུཏཿ།
8 And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said to me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.
ཏདཱཧཾ པྲཏྱཝདཾ, ཧེ པྲབྷེ ཀོ བྷཝཱན྄? ཏཏཿ སོ྅ཝཱདཱིཏ྄ ཡཾ ཏྭཾ ཏཱཌཡསི ས ནཱསརཏཱིཡོ ཡཱིཤུརཧཾ།
9 And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spoke to me.
མམ སངྒིནོ ལོཀཱསྟཱཾ དཱིཔྟིཾ དྲྀཥྚྭཱ བྷིཡཾ པྲཱཔྟཱཿ, ཀིནྟུ མཱམྤྲཏྱུདིཏཾ ཏདྭཱཀྱཾ ཏེ ནཱབུདྷྱནྟ།
10 And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said to me, Arise, and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee concerning all things which are appointed for thee to do.
ཏཏཿ པརཾ པྲྀཥྚཝཱནཧཾ, ཧེ པྲབྷོ མཡཱ ཀིཾ ཀརྟྟཝྱཾ? ཏཏཿ པྲབྷུརཀཐཡཏ྄, ཨུཏྠཱཡ དམྨེཥཀནགརཾ ཡཱཧི ཏྭཡཱ ཡདྱཏ྄ ཀརྟྟཝྱཾ ནིརཱུཔིཏམཱསྟེ ཏཏ྄ ཏཏྲ ཏྭཾ ཛྙཱཔཡིཥྱསེ།
11 And when I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of them that were with me, I came into Damascus.
ཨནནྟརཾ ཏསྱཱཿ ཁརཏརདཱིཔྟེཿ ཀཱརཎཱཏ྄ ཀིམཔི ན དྲྀཥྚྭཱ སངྒིགཎེན དྷྲྀཏཧསྟཿ སན྄ དམྨེཥཀནགརཾ ཝྲཛིཏཝཱན྄།
12 And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews who dwelt there,
ཏནྣགརནིཝཱསིནཱཾ སཪྻྭེཥཱཾ ཡིཧཱུདཱིཡཱནཱཾ མཱནྱོ ཝྱཝསྠཱནུསཱརེཎ བྷཀྟཤྩ ཧནཱནཱིཡནཱམཱ མཱནཝ ཨེཀོ
13 Came to me, and stood, and said to me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him.
མམ སནྣིདྷིམ྄ ཨེཏྱ ཏིཥྛན྄ ཨཀཐཡཏ྄, ཧེ བྷྲཱཏཿ ཤཽལ སུདྲྀཥྚི རྦྷཝ ཏསྨིན྄ དཎྜེ྅ཧཾ སམྱཀ྄ ཏཾ དྲྀཥྚཝཱན྄།
14 And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.
ཏཏཿ ས མཧྱཾ ཀཐིཏཝཱན྄ ཡཐཱ ཏྭམ྄ ཨཱིཤྭརསྱཱབྷིཔྲཱཡཾ ཝེཏྶི ཏསྱ ཤུདྡྷསཏྟྭཛནསྱ དརྴནཾ པྲཱཔྱ ཏསྱ ཤྲཱིམུཁསྱ ཝཱཀྱཾ ཤྲྀཎོཥི ཏནྣིམིཏྟམ྄ ཨསྨཱཀཾ པཱུཪྻྭཔུརུཥཱཎཱམ྄ ཨཱིཤྭརསྟྭཱཾ མནོནཱིཏཾ ཀྲྀཏཝཱནཾ།
15 For thou shalt be his witness to all men of what thou hast seen and heard.
ཡཏོ ཡདྱད྄ ཨདྲཱཀྵཱིརཤྲཽཥཱིཤྩ སཪྻྭེཥཱཾ མཱནཝཱནཱཾ སམཱིཔེ ཏྭཾ ཏེཥཱཾ སཱཀྵཱི བྷཝིཥྱསི།
16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
ཨཏཨེཝ ཀུཏོ ཝིལམྦསེ? པྲབྷོ རྣཱམྣཱ པྲཱརྠྱ ནིཛཔཱཔཔྲཀྵཱལནཱརྠཾ མཛྫནཱཡ སམུཏྟིཥྛ།
17 And it came to pass, that, when I had come again to Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance;
ཏཏཿ པརཾ ཡིརཱུཤཱལམྣགརཾ པྲཏྱཱགཏྱ མནྡིརེ྅ཧམ྄ ཨེཀདཱ པྲཱརྠཡེ, ཏསྨིན྄ སམཡེ྅ཧམ྄ ཨབྷིབྷཱུཏཿ སན྄ པྲབྷཱུཾ སཱཀྵཱཏ྄ པཤྱན྄,
18 And saw him saying to me, Make haste, and depart quickly from Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.
ཏྭཾ ཏྭརཡཱ ཡིརཱུཤཱལམཿ པྲཏིཥྛསྭ ཡཏོ ལོཀཱམཡི ཏཝ སཱཀྵྱཾ ན གྲཧཱིཥྱནྟི, མཱམྤྲཏྱུདིཏཾ ཏསྱེདཾ ཝཱཀྱམ྄ ཨཤྲཽཥམ྄།
19 And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee:
ཏཏོཧཾ པྲཏྱཝཱདིཥམ྄ ཧེ པྲབྷོ པྲཏིབྷཛནབྷཝནཾ ཏྭཡི ཝིཤྭཱསིནོ ལོཀཱན྄ བདྡྷྭཱ པྲཧྲྀཏཝཱན྄,
20 And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting to his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew him.
ཏཐཱ ཏཝ སཱཀྵིཎཿ སྟིཕཱནསྱ རཀྟཔཱཏནསམཡེ ཏསྱ ཝིནཱཤཾ སམྨནྱ སནྣིདྷཽ ཏིཥྛན྄ ཧནྟྲྀལོཀཱནཱཾ ཝཱསཱཾསི རཀྵིཏཝཱན྄, ཨེཏཏ྄ ཏེ ཝིདུཿ།
21 And he said to me, Depart: for I will send thee far away to the Gentiles.
ཏཏཿ སོ྅ཀཐཡཏ྄ པྲཏིཥྛསྭ ཏྭཱཾ དཱུརསྠབྷིནྣདེཤཱིཡཱནཱཾ སམཱིཔཾ པྲེཥཡིཥྱེ།
22 And they hearkened to him until this word, and then lifted up their voices, and said, Away with such a fellow from the earth: for it is not fit that he should live.
ཏདཱ ལོཀཱ ཨེཏཱཝཏྤཪྻྱནྟཱཾ ཏདཱིཡཱཾ ཀཐཱཾ ཤྲུཏྭཱ པྲོཙྩཻརཀཐཡན྄, ཨེནཾ བྷཱུམཎྜལཱད྄ དཱུརཱིཀུརུཏ, ཨེཏཱདྲྀཤཛནསྱ ཛཱིཝནཾ ནོཙིཏམ྄།
23 And as they cried out, and cast off their clothes, and threw dust into the air,
ཨིཏྱུཙྩཻཿ ཀཐཡིཏྭཱ ཝསནཱནི པརིཏྱཛྱ གགཎཾ པྲཏི དྷཱུལཱིརཀྵིཔན྄
24 The chief captain commanded him to be brought into the barracks, and bade that he should be examined by scourging; that he might know for what cause they cried so against him.
ཏཏཿ སཧསྲསེནཱཔཏིཿ པཽལཾ དུརྒཱབྷྱནྟར ནེཏུཾ སམཱདིཤཏ྄། ཨེཏསྱ པྲཏིཀཱུལཱཿ སནྟོ ལོཀཱཿ ཀིནྣིམིཏྟམ྄ ཨེཏཱཝདུཙྩཻཿསྭརམ྄ ཨཀུཪྻྭན྄, ཨེཏད྄ ཝེཏྟུཾ ཏཾ ཀཤཡཱ པྲཧྲྀཏྱ ཏསྱ པརཱིཀྵཱཾ ཀརྟྟུམཱདིཤཏ྄།
25 And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said to the centurion that stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and uncondemned?
པདཱཏཡཤྩརྨྨནིརྨྨིཏརཛྫུབྷིསྟསྱ བནྡྷནཾ ཀརྟྟུམུདྱཏཱསྟཱསྟདཱནཱིཾ པཽལཿ སམྨུཁསྠིཏཾ ཤཏསེནཱཔཏིམ྄ ཨུཀྟཝཱན྄ དཎྜཱཛྙཱཡཱམ྄ ཨཔྲཱཔྟཱཡཱཾ ཀིཾ རོམིལོཀཾ པྲཧརྟྟུཾ ཡུཥྨཱཀམ྄ ཨདྷིཀཱརོསྟི?
26 When the centurion heard that, he went and told the chief captain, saying, Take heed what thou doest: for this man is a Roman.
ཨེནཱཾ ཀཐཱཾ ཤྲུཏྭཱ ས སཧསྲསེནཱཔཏེཿ སནྣིདྷིཾ གཏྭཱ ཏཱཾ ཝཱརྟྟཱམཝདཏ྄ ས རོམིལོཀ ཨེཏསྨཱཏ྄ སཱཝདྷཱནཿ སན྄ ཀརྨྨ ཀུརུ།
27 Then the chief captain came, and said to him, Tell me, art thou a Roman? He said, Yea.
ཏསྨཱཏ྄ སཧསྲསེནཱཔཏི རྒཏྭཱ ཏམཔྲཱཀྵཱིཏ྄ ཏྭཾ ཀིཾ རོམིལོཀཿ? ཨིཏི མཱཾ བྲཱུཧི། སོ྅ཀཐཡཏ྄ སཏྱམ྄།
28 And the chief captain answered, With a great sum I obtained this freedom. And Paul said, But I was free born.
ཏཏཿ སཧསྲསེནཱཔཏིཿ ཀཐིཏཝཱན྄ བཧུདྲཝིཎཾ དཏྟྭཱཧཾ ཏཏ྄ པཽརསཁྱཾ པྲཱཔྟཝཱན྄; ཀིནྟུ པཽལཿ ཀཐིཏཝཱན྄ ཨཧཾ ཛནུནཱ ཏཏ྄ པྲཱཔྟོ྅སྨི།
29 Then immediately they departed from him who were about to examine him: and the chief captain also was afraid, after he knew that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him.
ཨིཏྠཾ སཏི ཡེ པྲཧཱརེཎ ཏཾ པརཱིཀྵིཏུཾ སམུདྱཏཱ ཨཱསན྄ ཏེ ཏསྱ སམཱིཔཱཏ྄ པྲཱཏིཥྛནྟ; སཧསྲསེནཱཔཏིསྟཾ རོམིལོཀཾ ཝིཛྙཱཡ སྭཡཾ ཡཏ྄ ཏསྱ བནྡྷནམ྄ ཨཀཱརྵཱིཏ྄ ཏཏྐཱརཎཱད྄ ཨབིབྷེཏ྄།
30 On the next day, because he would have known the certainty why he was accused by the Jews, he loosed him from his bands, and commanded the chief priests and all their council to appear, and brought Paul down, and set him before them.
