1. 1HATFrèm yo, grandèt mwen yo, koute sa m' pral di nou koulye a pou defann tèt mwen.BSBBSB: “Brothers and fathers, listen now to my defense before you.”
2. 2HATLè yo tande l' ap pale ebre, yo rete byen dousman. Epi Pòl di yo:BSBBSB: When they heard him speak to them in Hebrew, they became even more quiet. Then Paul declared,
3. 3HATSe jwif mwen ye. Mwen fèt lavil Tas nan peyi Silisi. Men, se isit lavil Jerizalèm mwen grandi. Se Gamalyèl ki te pwofesè mwen. Se li menm ki te moutre m' tout ti detay nan Lalwa zansèt nou yo. Mwen menm tou, yon lè mwen te gen zèl nou gen koulye a pou Bondye.BSBBSB: “I am a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but raised in this city. I was educated at the feet of Gamaliel in strict conformity to the law of our fathers. I was just as zealous for God as any of you are today.
4. 4HATMwen te pèsekite moun ki t'ap swiv chemen Bondye a jouk pou m' te touye yo. Fanm kou gason, mwen te arete tout moun mete nan prizon.BSBBSB: I persecuted this Way even to the death, detaining both men and women and throwing them into prison,
5. 5HATGranprèt la ak chèf fanmi yo ki reyini la a, yo ka sètifye sa m'ap di la a se vre. Se yo menm menm ki te ban m' lèt otorizasyon pou frè jwif lavil Damas yo. Mwen tapral arete mezi disip ki te la, mennen yo Jerizalèm pou fè regle yo.BSBBSB: as the high priest and the whole Council can testify about me. I even obtained letters from them to their brothers in Damascus, and I was on my way to apprehend these people and bring them to Jerusalem to be punished.
6. 6HATMwen te sou wout la toupre Damas, lè m' rete konsa yon gwo limyè soti nan syèl la, li klere tout kote m' te ye a. Lè sa a, li te bò midi konsa.BSBBSB: About noon as I was approaching Damascus, suddenly a bright light from heaven flashed around me.
7. 7HATMwen tonbe atè, epi m' tande yon vwa ki di m': Sòl, Sòl, poukisa w'ap pèsekite mwen konsa?BSBBSB: I fell to the ground and heard a voice say to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?’
8. 8HATMwen mande: Ki moun ou ye, Seyè? Epi li di mwen: Mwen se Jezi, moun Nazarèt, w'ap pèsekite a.BSBBSB: ‘Who are You, Lord?’ I asked. ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting,’ He replied.
9. 9HATMoun ki te la avè m' yo te wè limyè a tou, men yo pa t' tande vwa ki t'ap pale avè m' lan.BSBBSB: My companions saw the light, but they could not understand the voice of the One speaking to me.
10. 10HATLè sa a, mwen mande: Kisa pou m' fè, Seyè? Seyè a di mwen: Leve, ale lavil Damas. Se la y'a di ou tou sa Bondye va ba ou lòd fè.BSBBSB: Then I asked, ‘What should I do, Lord?’ ‘Get up and go into Damascus,’ He told me. ‘There you will be told all that you have been appointed to do.’
11. 11HATLimyè a te tèlman klere, mwen te vin avèg. Se kanmarad mwen yo ki pran men m' ki mennen m' Damas.BSBBSB: Because the brilliance of the light had blinded me, my companions led me by the hand into Damascus.
12. 12HATNan Damas te gen yon nonm yo rele Ananyas. Se te yon moun ki t'ap sèvi Bondye jan Lalwa nou an mande l' la. Tout jwif Damas yo te konsidere l' anpil.BSBBSB: There a man named Ananias, a devout observer of the law who was highly regarded by all the Jews living there,
13. 13HATLi vin jwenn mwen, li kanpe toupre m', epi li di mwen: Sòl, frè mwen, se pou ou wè nan je ou ankò. Menm lè a, mwen wè ankò, epi mwen gade li.BSBBSB: came and stood beside me. ‘Brother Saul,’ he said, ‘receive your sight.’ And at that moment I could see him.
14. 14HATLi di m' konsa: Bondye zansèt nou yo te chwazi ou davans pou ou te ka konn volonte l', pou ou te ka wè sèl moun ki dwat devan li a, pou ou te ka tande l' pale ak bouch li.BSBBSB: Then he said, ‘The God of our fathers has appointed you to know His will and to see the Righteous One and to hear His voice.
15. 15HATOu pral sèvi l' temwen, ou pral fè tout moun konnen sa ou te wè ak sa ou te tande.BSBBSB: You will be His witness to everyone of what you have seen and heard.
16. 16HATKoulye a, kisa w'ap tann ankò? Leve non, rele Bondye, resevwa batèm pou tout peche ou yo ka lave.BSBBSB: And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized, and wash your sins away, calling on His name.’
17. 17HATApre sa, mwen tounen lavil Jerizalèm. Antan m' te nan tanp lan ap lapriyè, mwen fè yon vizyon.BSBBSB: Later, when I had returned to Jerusalem and was praying at the temple, I fell into a trance
18. 18HATMwen wè Seyè a ki di mwen: Fè vit, kite Jerizalèm, paske moun Jerizalèm yo p'ap asepte tou sa w'ap di sou mwen an.BSBBSB: and saw the Lord saying to me, ‘Hurry! Leave Jerusalem quickly, because the people here will not accept your testimony about Me.’
19. 19HATMwen reponn: Seyè, yo konnen byen pwòp mwen te konn al nan sinagòg yo, mwen te konn mete tout moun ki te kwè nan ou nan prizon, fè bat yo byen bat.BSBBSB: ‘Lord,’ I answered, ‘they know very well that in one synagogue after another I imprisoned and beat those who believed in You.
20. 20HATMenm lè yo t'ap touye Etyèn, moun ki te kanpe pou ou a, mwen te la tou. Mwen te dakò ak moun ki t'ap touye l' yo. Se mwen menm ki te veye rad yo.BSBBSB: And when the blood of Your witness Stephen was shed, I stood there giving my approval and watching over the garments of those who killed him.’
21. 21HATLè sa a, Seyè a di mwen: Ale, m'ap voye ou byen lwen, bò kote moun ki pa jwif yo.BSBBSB: Then He said to me, ‘Go! I will send you far away to the Gentiles.’”
22. 22HATFoul moun yo t'ap koute Pòl byen pwòp. Men, lè yo tande pawòl sa a, yo tout pran rele: Wete nonm sa a sou latè! Touye li! Li pa merite viv ankò!BSBBSB: The crowd listened to Paul until he made this statement. Then they lifted up their voices and shouted, “Rid the earth of him! He is not fit to live!”
23. 23HATYo t'ap rele pi rèd, yo t'ap souke rad yo, yo t'ap voye pousyè tè anlè.BSBBSB: As they were shouting and throwing off their cloaks and tossing dust into the air,
24. 24HATKòmandan women an bay lòd fè Pòl antre nan kazèn lan. Li mande pou yo bat li pou fè l' pale. Li te vle konnen poukisa foul moun yo t'ap rele dèyè l' konsa.BSBBSB: the commander ordered that Paul be brought into the barracks. He directed that Paul be flogged and interrogated to determine the reason for this outcry against him.
25. 25HATLè yo fin mare l' pou bat li, Pòl di ofisye ki te la a: Eske nou gen dwa bat yon sitwayen women ki pa menm pase devan yon tribinal?BSBBSB: But as they stretched him out to strap him down, Paul said to the centurion standing there, “Is it lawful for you to flog a Roman citizen without a trial?”
26. 26HATLè l' tande sa, ofisye a al avèti kòmandan an, li di li: Fè atansyon sa ou pral fè la a, tande! Nonm lan, se sitwayen women li ye wi.BSBBSB: On hearing this, the centurion went and reported it to the commander. “What are you going to do?” he said. “This man is a Roman citizen.”
27. 27HATKòmandan an vin jwenn Pòl, li mande li: Di mwen, èske se sitwayen women ou ye? Pòl reponn li: Wi.BSBBSB: The commander went to Paul and asked, “Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?” “Yes,” he answered.
28. 28HATKòmandan an di l' konsa: Mwen menm, mwen te peye gwo lajan pou m' te ka sitwayen women. Pòl reponn li: Mwen menm, mwen fèt sitwayen women.BSBBSB: “I paid a high price for my citizenship,” said the commander. “But I was born a citizen,” Paul replied.
29. 29HATLamenm, moun ki tapral bat li pou te fè l' pale yo renka kò yo dèyè. Ata kòmandan an te pè lè l' vin rann li kont li te fè mare Pòl ki te yon sitwayen women avèk chenn.BSBBSB: At once those who were about to interrogate Paul stepped back, and the commander himself was alarmed when he realized that he had put a Roman citizen in chains.
30. 30HATKòmandan an te vle konnen egzakteman kisa jwif yo t'ap akize Pòl fè. Se konsa, nan denmen li fè lage chenn yo, epi li voye lòd bay chèf prèt yo pou yo reyini ansanm ak Gran Konsèy la. Li mennen Pòl, li mete l' devan yo.BSBBSB: The next day the commander, wanting to learn the real reason Paul was accused by the Jews, released him and ordered the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin to assemble. Then he brought Paul down and had him stand before them.
