< Acts 23 >

1 And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men, brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.

2 And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him, to strike him on the mouth.

3 Then said Paul to him, God shall smite thee, [thou] whited wall: for sittest thou to judge me according to the law, and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law?
ତଦା ପୌଲସ୍ତମୱଦତ୍, ହେ ବହିଷ୍ପରିଷ୍କୃତ, ଈଶ୍ୱରସ୍ତ୍ୱାଂ ପ୍ରହର୍ତ୍ତୁମ୍ ଉଦ୍ୟତୋସ୍ତି, ଯତୋ ୱ୍ୟୱସ୍ଥାନୁସାରେଣ ୱିଚାରଯିତୁମ୍ ଉପୱିଶ୍ୟ ୱ୍ୟୱସ୍ଥାଂ ଲଙ୍ଘିତ୍ୱା ମାଂ ପ୍ରହର୍ତ୍ତୁମ୍ ଆଜ୍ଞାପଯସି|

5 Then said Paul, I knew not, brethren, that he is the high priest: for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people.

6 But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men, brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.

7 And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees: and the multitude was divided.

8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both.

9 And there arose a great cry: and the scribes [that were] of the Pharisees' part arose, and contended, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God.
ତତଃ ପରସ୍ପରମ୍ ଅତିଶଯକୋଲାହଲେ ସମୁପସ୍ଥିତେ ଫିରୂଶିନାଂ ପକ୍ଷୀଯାଃ ସଭାସ୍ଥା ଅଧ୍ୟାପକାଃ ପ୍ରତିପକ୍ଷା ଉତ୍ତିଷ୍ଠନ୍ତୋ ଽକଥଯନ୍, ଏତସ୍ୟ ମାନୱସ୍ୟ କମପି ଦୋଷଂ ନ ପଶ୍ୟାମଃ; ଯଦି କଶ୍ଚିଦ୍ ଆତ୍ମା ୱା କଶ୍ଚିଦ୍ ଦୂତ ଏନଂ ପ୍ରତ୍ୟାଦିଶତ୍ ତର୍ହି ୱଯମ୍ ଈଶ୍ୱରସ୍ୟ ପ୍ରାତିକୂଲ୍ୟେନ ନ ଯୋତ୍ସ୍ୟାମଃ|
10 And when there arose a great dissension, the chief captain, fearing lest Paul would have been pulled in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down, and to take him by force from among them, and to bring [him] into the castle.
ତସ୍ମାଦ୍ ଅତୀୱ ଭିନ୍ନୱାକ୍ୟତ୍ୱେ ସତି ତେ ପୌଲଂ ଖଣ୍ଡଂ ଖଣ୍ଡଂ କରିଷ୍ୟନ୍ତୀତ୍ୟାଶଙ୍କଯା ସହସ୍ରସେନାପତିଃ ସେନାଗଣଂ ତତ୍ସ୍ଥାନଂ ଯାତୁଂ ସଭାତୋ ବଲାତ୍ ପୌଲଂ ଧୃତ୍ୱା ଦୁର୍ଗଂ ନେତଞ୍ଚାଜ୍ଞାପଯତ୍|
11 And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified concerning me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear testimony also at Rome.

12 And when it was day, certain of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying, that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul.

13 And they were more than forty who had made this conspiracy.

14 And they came to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have bound ourselves under a great curse, that we will eat nothing until we have slain Paul.

15 Now therefore ye with the council signify to the chief captain, that he bring him down to you to-morrow, as though ye would inquire something more perfectly concerning him: and we, before he shall come near, are ready to kill him.

16 And when the son of Paul's sister heard of their lying in wait, he went and entered into the castle, and told Paul.

17 Then Paul called one of the centurions to [him], and said, Bring this young man to the chief captain: for he hath a certain thing to tell him.

18 So he took him, and brought [him] to the chief captain, and said, Paul the prisoner called me to [him], and prayed me to bring this young man to thee, who hath something to say to thee.

19 Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went [with him] aside privately, and asked [him], What is that thou hast to tell me?
ତଦା ସହସ୍ରସେନାପତିସ୍ତସ୍ୟ ହସ୍ତଂ ଧୃତ୍ୱା ନିର୍ଜନସ୍ଥାନଂ ନୀତ୍ୱା ପୃଷ୍ଠୱାନ୍ ତୱ କିଂ ନିୱେଦନଂ? ତତ୍ କଥଯ|
20 And he said, The Jews have agreed to desire thee, that thou wouldst bring down Paul to-morrow into the council, as though they would inquire somewhat concerning him more perfectly.

21 But do not thou yield to them: for there are of them who lie in wait for him more than forty men, who have bound themselves with an oath, that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him: and now they are ready, looking for a promise from thee.

22 So the chief captain [then] let the young man depart, and charged [him], [See thou] tell no man that thou hast shown these things to me.

23 And he called to [him] two centurions, saying, Make ready two hundred soldiers to go to Cesarea, and seventy horsemen, and spearmen two hundred, at the third hour of the night;

24 And provide [for them] beasts, that they may set Paul on, and bring [him] safe to Felix the governor.

25 And he wrote a letter after this manner:

27 This man was taken by the Jews, and would have been killed by them: then I came with a body of soldiers, and rescued him, having understood that he was a Roman.

28 And when I would have known the cause for which they accused him, I brought him forth into their council:

30 And when it was told to me that the Jews laid wait for the man, I sent forthwith to thee, and gave commandment to his accusers also, to say before thee what [they had] against him. Farewell.

32 On the morrow they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to the castle:
