Acts 26 (GLK) · Opened

1Agrippa sacīja uz Pāvilu: “Tev ir vēlēts priekš sevis paša runāt.” Tad Pāvils roku izstiepis aizbildinājās:Agrippa said to Paul, “You have permission to speak for yourself.” Then Paul stretched out his hand and began his defense:

2“Es to sev turu par lielu laimi, ķēniņ Agrippa, ka man šodien ir vēlēts tavā priekšā aizbildināties par visu to, par ko es no tiem Jūdiem topu apsūdzēts,“King Agrippa, I consider myself fortunate to stand before you today to defend myself against all the accusations of the Jews,

3Visvairāk, kad es zinu, tevi esam mācītu visās Jūdu ierašās un jautāšanās. Tāpēc es tevi lūdzu, lēnprātīgi mani klausīties.especially since you are acquainted with all the Jewish customs and controversies. I beg you, therefore, to listen to me patiently.

4Manu dzīvošanu no mazām dienām, kāda tā no iesākuma bijusi manas tautas starpā iekš Jeruzālemes, to nu visi Jūdi zina.Surely all the Jews know how I have lived from my earliest childhood among my own people, and also in Jerusalem.

5Tie mani sen jau pazina, (ja tie gribētu liecību dot), ka es esmu dzīvojis pēc mūsu Dieva kalpošanas viscietākiem likumiem, farizejs būdams.They have known me for a long time and can testify, if they are willing, that I lived as a Pharisee, adhering to the strictest sect of our religion.

6Un nu es stāvu un topu tiesāts par to cerību uz to no Dieva mūsu tēviem doto apsolīšanu.And now I stand on trial because of my hope in the promise that God made to our fathers,

7Pie tās cer nākt mūsu divpadsmit ciltis, bez mitēšanās naktīm un dienām Dievam kalpodamas. Par šo cerību, ķēniņ Agrippa, es no tiem Jūdiem topu apsūdzēts.the promise our twelve tribes are hoping to see fulfilled as they earnestly serve God day and night. It is because of this hope, O king, that I am accused by the Jews.

8Kā? Vai tā jums šķiet neticama lieta, ka Dievs miroņus uzmodina?Why would any of you consider it incredible that God raises the dead?

9Man pašam gan šķita, ka man vajagot Jēzus, tā Nacarieša, vārdam daudz pretī darīt.So then, I too was convinced that I ought to do all I could to oppose the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

10To es arī esmu darījis Jeruzālemē, un es daudz svētus esmu ieslēdzis cietumā, to varu no tiem augstiem priesteriem dabūjis; un kad viņi tapa nokauti, tad man tas bija pa prātam.And that is what I did in Jerusalem. With authority from the chief priests I put many of the saints in prison, and when they were condemned to death, I cast my vote against them.

11Un pa visām baznīcām es tos daudzkārt esmu mocījis un tos spiedis zaimot, un pārlieku pret tiem trakodams es tos esmu vajājis arī līdz svešām pilsētām.I frequently had them punished in the synagogues, and I tried to make them blaspheme. In my raging fury against them, I even went to foreign cities to persecute them.

12Kad es tādēļ arī uz Damasku gāju ar spēku un varu no tiem augstiem priesteriem,In this pursuit I was on my way to Damascus with the authority and commission of the chief priests.

13Tad, ak ķēniņ, es dienas vidū uz ceļa gaišumu no debesīm, skaidrāku nekā sauli, redzēju, kas mani un manus ceļa biedrus apspīdēja.About noon, O king, as I was on the road, I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining around me and my companions.

14Un kad mēs visi pie zemes pakritām, tad es dzirdēju balsi uz mani runājam un Ebreju valodā sakām: “Saul, Saul, ko tu Mani vajā? Tev grūti nāksies pret dzenuli spārdīt!”We all fell to the ground, and I heard a voice say to me in Hebrew, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’

15Bet es sacīju: “Kas Tu esi, Kungs?” Bet Tas sacīja: “Es esmu Jēzus, ko tu vajā.‘Who are You, Lord?’ I asked. ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,’ the Lord replied.

16Bet celies un stāvi uz savām kājām. Jo tāpēc Es tev esmu parādījies, ka Es tevi ieceltu par kalpu un liecinieku tanīs lietās, ko tu esi redzējis un kādās Es tev parādīšos,‘But get up and stand on your feet. For I have appeared to you to appoint you as a servant and as a witness of what you have seen from Me and what I will show you.

17Tevi izraudams no šiem ļaudīm un no tiem pagāniem, pie kuriem Es tevi tagad sūtu,I will rescue you from your own people and from the Gentiles. I am sending you to them

18Viņu acis atdarīt, ka tie atgriežas no tumsības pie gaismas un no velna varas pie Dieva, ka tie dabū grēku piedošanu un daļu starp tiem svētītiem caur ticību uz Mani.”to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those sanctified by faith in Me.’

19Tāpēc, ak ķēniņ Agrippa, es šai parādīšanai no debesīm neesmu bijis nepaklausīgs;So then, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision.

20Bet es papriekš tiem, kas Damaskū un Jeruzālemē un visā Jūdu zemē, un tiem pagāniem esmu pasludinājis, lai no grēkiem atstājās un pie Dieva atgriežas un dara atjaunota prāta pienākamus darbus.First to those in Damascus and Jerusalem, then to everyone in the region of Judea, and then to the Gentiles, I declared that they should repent and turn to God, performing deeds worthy of their repentance.

21Tādēļ tie Jūdi, Dieva namā mani sagrābuši, apņēmās mani nokaut.For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple courts and tried to kill me.

22Bet palīgu no Dieva dabūjis es stāvu līdz šai dienai, un apliecināju tik pat mazam kā lielam, cita nekā nesacīdams kā vien, ko pravieši un Mozus runājuši, kas notiks;But I have had God’s help to this day, and I stand here to testify to small and great alike. I am saying nothing beyond what the prophets and Moses said would happen:

23Ka Kristum bija jācieš, un ka Viņš, tas pirmais, kas no miroņiem augšāmcēlies, gaismu pasludinās Saviem ļaudīm un tiem pagāniem.”that the Christ would suffer, and as the first to rise from the dead, would proclaim light to our people and to the Gentiles.”

24Un kad viņš tā aizbildinājās, tad Festus sacīja ar skaņu balsi: “Pāvil, tu esi traks, tā lielā rakstu zināšana tevi padara traku.”At this stage of Paul’s defense, Festus exclaimed in a loud voice, “You are insane, Paul! Your great learning is driving you to madness!”

25Bet tas sacīja: “Es neesmu vis traks, viscienīgais Festu, bet es runāju patiesīgus un prātīgus vārdus.But Paul answered, “I am not insane, most excellent Festus; I am speaking words of truth and sobriety.

26Jo par šīm lietām ķēniņš zina, uz ko es arī droši runāju. Jo es neticu, ka kāda no šīm lietām viņam ir paslēpta; jo tas nav kaktā noticis.For the king knows about these matters, and I can speak freely to him. I am confident that none of this has escaped his notice, because it was not done in a corner.

27Vai tu, ķēniņ Agrippa, tiem praviešiem tici? Es zinu, ka tu tici!”King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know you do.”

28Bet Agrippa sacīja uz Pāvilu: “Daudz netrūkst, tu mani pārrunā, ka es palieku par Kristus mācekli.”Then Agrippa said to Paul, “Can you persuade me in such a short time to become a Christian?”

29Bet Pāvils sacīja: “Es no Dieva vēlētos, lai trūkst maz vai daudz, ka ne vien tu, bet arī visi, kas mani šodien dzird, tādi top, kāds es esmu, bez šīm saitēm vien.”“Short time or long,” Paul replied, “I wish to God that not only you but all who hear me this day may become what I am, except for these chains.”

30Un kad viņš to runāja, tad ķēniņš cēlās un zemes valdītājs un Berniķe un kas pie tiem sēdēja.Then the king and the governor rose, along with Bernice and those seated with them.

31Un aizgājuši tie runāja savā starpā sacīdami: “Šis cilvēks neko nedara, ar ko viņš nāvi vai saites pelna.”On their way out, they said to one another, “This man has done nothing worthy of death or imprisonment.”

32Un Agrippa sacīja uz Festu: “Šo cilvēku varētu palaist, kad tas ķeizaru nebūtu piesaucis.”And Agrippa said to Festus, “This man could have been released if he had not appealed to Caesar.”
