使徒行传 22
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
22 “各位父老弟兄，请听听我现在对你们的申辩。” 2 他们听见保罗用希伯来语说话，就更加安静了。保罗说： 3 “我是犹太人，生在基利家的大数，在城里长大，按照我们祖宗律法的严格要求，在迦玛列门下受教，我为 神热心，好象你们大家今天一样。 4 我曾经迫害信奉这道的人直至死地，把男男女女都捆绑起来，送进监狱， 5 这是大祭司和全公议会都可以给我作证的。我也从他们那里得到了写给众弟兄的信，就去大马士革，要把那里的人捆绑起来，带到耶路撒冷接受惩罚。
保罗自述信主经过
6 “约在正午，当我走近大马士革的时候，忽然有大光从天上向我四面照射， 7 我仆倒在地上，听见有声音对我说：‘扫罗，扫罗，你为甚么迫害我？’ 8 我回答：‘主啊，你是谁？’他说：‘我就是你所迫害的拿撒勒人耶稣。’ 9 跟我在一起的人，只看见那光，却听不清楚那位对我说话的声音。 10 我说：‘主啊，我应当作甚么呢？’主说：‘起来，进大马士革去，在那里有人会把指定给你作的一切事告诉你。’ 11 因为那光太强烈，我的眼睛就瞎了，跟我在一起的人就牵着我的手，进了大马士革。
12 “有一个人名叫亚拿尼亚的，他是一个虔诚而遵守律法的人，当地所有的犹太人都称赞他。 13 他来见我，站在我旁边，对我说：‘扫罗弟兄，你现在可以看见了。’我立刻往上一看，看见了他。 14 他又说：‘我们祖先的 神选派了你，让你明白他的旨意，看见那义者，听见他口中的声音。 15 因为你要把所看见所听见的，向万人为他作见证。 16 现在你为甚么还耽搁呢？起来受洗，求告他的名，洗净你的罪吧。’
保罗蒙差遣向外族人传福音
17 “后来，我回到耶路撒冷，在殿里祷告的时候，魂游象外， 18 看见主对我说：‘你要快快离开耶路撒冷，因为你为我作的见证，他们是不会接受的。’ 19 我说：‘主啊，他们知道我曾把信你的人监禁起来，又在各会堂拷打他们， 20 并且你的见证人司提反受害流血的时候，我也亲自在场，表示同意，并且为杀他的人看守衣服。’ 21 他对我说：‘你走吧，我要派你到远方的外族人那里去。’”
保罗与千夫长
22 众人听见他说到这句话，就高声说：“这样的人应该从地上除掉，不应该活着！” 23 大家正在喊叫着，拋掷衣服，向空中扬灰撒土的时候， 24 千夫长下令把保罗带到营楼去，吩咐人用鞭子拷问他，要知道群众为甚么这样向他喊叫。 25 士兵正用皮带绑他的时候，保罗对站在旁边的百夫长说：“你们鞭打一个还没有定罪的罗马公民，是合法的吗？” 26 百夫长听了，就去报告千夫长，说：“这个人是罗马公民，你要怎么办呢？” 27 千夫长就来问保罗：“告诉我，你是罗马公民吗？”他说：“是的。” 28 千夫长说：“我花了一大笔钱，才取得罗马籍。”保罗说：“我生下来就是罗马公民。” 29 于是那些要拷问他的人，立刻离开他走了。千夫长既知道他是罗马公民，又因捆绑过他，就害怕起来。
保罗在公议会面前申辩
30 第二天，千夫长为要知道犹太人控告保罗的真相，就解开他，召集了祭司长和公议会全体在一起，把保罗带下来，叫他站在他们面前。
使徒行傳 22
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
22 「各位父老兄弟，請聽我解釋！」 2 在場的人聽見保羅講的是希伯來話，更加安靜了。保羅說： 3 「我是猶太人，生於基利迦的大數，在耶路撒冷長大，曾在迦瑪列門下嚴格地按著我們祖先的律法接受教育，像你們今日一樣熱心事奉上帝。 4 我曾經把信奉這道的男女信徒抓進監獄，迫害他們，置他們於死地。 5 大祭司和眾長老都可以為我作證。我還拿著他們寫給大馬士革的猶太人的信去拘捕那裡的信徒，押回耶路撒冷受刑。
6 「當我快到大馬士革的時候，大約中午時分，突然從天上有一道強光四面照著我。 7 我就仆倒在地，聽見有聲音對我說，『掃羅！掃羅！你為什麼迫害我？』 8 我回答說，『主啊，你是誰？』他說，『我就是你迫害的拿撒勒人耶穌！』 9 我的同伴雖然也看見那道強光，卻聽不懂那位說話者的聲音。 10 接著我又問，『主啊！我該怎麼辦？』主說，『起來，到大馬士革去，那裡會有人將指派給你的事告訴你。』
11 「那道耀眼的光照得我雙眼失明，於是同行的人拉著我的手，帶我進了大馬士革。 12 那裡有一個嚴守律法的虔誠人名叫亞拿尼亞，深受當地所有猶太人的尊敬。 13 他來探望我，站在我身邊說，『掃羅弟兄，重見光明吧！』就在那一刻，我抬頭看見了他。 14 他又說，『我們祖先的上帝揀選了你，要你明白祂的旨意，又讓你親自看見那位公義者、聽到祂的聲音。 15 因為你將作祂的見證人，把所見所聞告訴萬民。 16 現在你還等什麼呢？起來求告祂的名，接受洗禮，洗淨你的罪。』
17 「後來，我回到耶路撒冷，在聖殿裡禱告的時候，進入異象， 18 看見主對我說，『趕快離開耶路撒冷，因為這裡的人不會接受你為我做的見證。』 19 我說，『主啊！他們都知道我從前搜遍各會堂，逮捕、毒打信你的人。 20 當你的見證人司提凡為你流血殉道時，我自己也站在旁邊贊同殺他的人，還替他們保管衣服。』 21 主卻對我說，『去吧！我要差遣你到遙遠的外族人那裡。』」
因羅馬公民身分而免刑
22 眾人一聽到這裡，就高喊：「從世上除掉這樣的人！他不配活著！」 23 百姓咆哮著脫掉外衣，揚起塵土。 24 千夫長下令把保羅押回營房，預備鞭打拷問他，要查出眾人向他咆哮的緣由。 25 他們把保羅綁起來正要鞭打，保羅問旁邊的百夫長：「未經定罪就拷打羅馬公民合法嗎？」
26 百夫長一聽，立刻去稟告千夫長說：「你看該怎麼辦？這人是羅馬公民。」
27 千夫長就來問保羅：「告訴我，你是羅馬公民嗎？」
保羅說：「是的。」
28 千夫長說：「我花了很多錢才當上羅馬公民！」
保羅說：「我生來就是。」
29 那些準備拷問保羅的士兵立刻退下了。千夫長也害怕起來，因為發現保羅是羅馬公民，他卻下令捆綁了保羅。
保羅在公會申辯
30 第二天，千夫長想知道保羅被猶太人指控的真相，就為保羅鬆了綁，並召聚了祭司長和全公會的人，然後將保羅帶來，讓他站在眾人面前。
Gevurot 22
Orthodox Jewish Bible
22 Rav Sha’ul said, "Anashim, Achim, Avot, listen now to my hitstaddekut (defense)."
2 And when they heard that Rav Sha’ul was addressing them in the language of the Hebrews, they were even more quiet. And Rav Sha’ul said,
3 "I am an ish Yehudi, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but having been brought up in a yeshiva in this city of Yerushalayim at the feet of Rabban Gamliel, having learned with irreproachable frumkeit according to all machmir chumra strictness the Torah of Avoteinu, and I have a kinat Hashem just as all of you do today; [MELACHIM ALEF 19:10]
4 "I brought redifah on this ‘Derech,’ even to the point of mavet, binding and delivering both anashim and nashim over to the beis hasohar,
5 "As even the Kohen Gadol and all the Zekenim of the Sanhedrin could give solemn eidus for me. For from them I also was authorized with iggrot to the Achim in Damascus, and I was going there to lead away also the ones who were there in order to bring them bound back to Yerushalayim to have them punished.
6 "And it happened to me while traveling and drawing near to Damascus, lav davka (approximately) noon, suddenly from Shomayim, a very bright ohr (light) shone around me;
7 "And I fell to the ground. Then I heard a bat kol saying to me, ‘Sha’ul, Sha’ul, why are you bringing redifah on me?'’
8 "And I answered, ‘Who are you, Adoni?’ And he said to me, ‘I am Yehoshua of Natzeret, upon whom you are bringing redifah.’
9 "And the ones with me saw the ohr (light) but they did not have real hearing (understanding) of the voice speaking to me.
10 "And I said, ‘What shall I do, Adoni?'’ And HaAdon said to me, ‘Get up and go into Damascus, and there you will be told about everything which has been appointed for you to do.'’
11 "And because I had been blinded from the kavod (glory) of that ohr (light), I was led by the hand by the ones who were with me and who led me into Damascus.
12 "A certain man, Chananyah by name, an ehrliche Yid (a truly pious Jew), charedi according to the Torah and with a shem tov with all the Yehudim living in Damascus,
13 "Came to me and stood next to me, saying, ‘Ach b’Moshiach Sha’ul, receive your sight.’ And at that moment I looked up at him.
14 "And he said, ‘Elohei Avoteinu has chosen and appointed you to have da’as of His ratzon (will) and to see the Tzaddik [Moshiach] and to hear the kol (voice) from His mouth.
15 ‘For you will be an eidus (witness) to him to all anashim of what you have seen and heard.
16 ‘And now what do you intend to do? Get up and receive Moshiach’s tevilah of teshuva and wash away your averos (sins) by calling upon SHMO.' [VAYIKRA 8:6; TEHILLIM 51:2; YECHEZKEL 36:25; YOEL 3:5(2:32) ZECHARYAH 6:12]
17 "And it happened that after I had returned to Yerushalayim and as I was davening in the Beis Hamikdash, that I fell into a trance,
18 "And saw Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach saying to me, ‘Hurry and get out quickly from Yerushalayim, because they will not receive your edut (testimony) concerning me.'
19 "And I said ‘Adoni, they themselves have da’as that in every shul I was imprisoning and beating the ones with emunah in you.
20 ‘And when in al kiddush ha-Shem, the dahm of your eidus (witness) Stefanos was being poured out, I myself also had been standing by and agreeing and protecting the kaftans of the ones killing him.'
21 "And Moshiach said to me, ‘Go! For I will send you out, far away to the Goyim.’'"
22 And they were listening to Rav Sha’ul up to the word "Goyim;" and then they lifted up their kol, saying, "Away with such a one from ha’aretz! He should not be allowed to live!"
23 And while they were crying out, while they were throwing off their kaftans and tossing dust into the air, [SHMUEL BAIS 16:13]
24 the Roman tribune directed him to be brought into the barracks, and ordered him to be examined by the flagellum’s scourge, that the tribune might have da’as of the reason for the mob’s shouting thus keneged (against, in opposition to) Rav Sha’ul.
25 And when the Roman soldiers stretched Rav Sha’ul out with the straps, he said to the centurion who was standing by, "If a man is a Roman citizen and uncondemned, it is lawful for you to scourge him?"
26 And having heard this, the centurion approached the tribune and reported, saying, "What are you about to do? For this man has Roman citizenship."
27 And having approached, the tribune said to Rav Sha’ul, "Tell me, are you a Roman?" And Rav Sha’ul said, "Etiam." [T.N. Latin: "Yes, certainly."]
28 And the tribune answered, "It cost me a large sum of money for me to acquire my Roman citizenship. " And Rav Sha’ul said, "But indeed I have been born a Roman citizen."
29 Ofen ort, then, the ones about to examine him drew back from Rav Sha’ul. Also the tribune did the same. For he was afraid, learning that Rav Sha’ul is a Roman and that he had bound him.
30 And on the next day, desiring to know something definite about why Rav Sha’ul was accused by the Yehudim, the tribune released him and ordered the Rashei Hakohanim and all the Sanhedrin to be assembled. Then, having brought down Rav Sha’ul, the tribune had him set before them.
