使徒行传 22
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
22 “各位父老弟兄，請聽聽我現在對你們的申辯。” 2 他們聽見保羅用希伯來語說話，就更加安靜了。保羅說： 3 “我是猶太人，生在基利家的大數，在城裡長大，按照我們祖宗律法的嚴格要求，在迦瑪列門下受教，我為 神熱心，好像你們大家今天一樣。 4 我曾經迫害信奉這道的人直至死地，把男男女女都捆綁起來，送進監獄， 5 這是大祭司和全公議會都可以給我作證的。我也從他們那裡得到了寫給眾弟兄的信，就去大馬士革，要把那裡的人捆綁起來，帶到耶路撒冷接受懲罰。
保羅自述信主經過
6 “約在正午，當我走近大馬士革的時候，忽然有大光從天上向我四面照射， 7 我仆倒在地上，聽見有聲音對我說：‘掃羅，掃羅，你為甚麼迫害我？’ 8 我回答：‘主啊，你是誰？’他說：‘我就是你所迫害的拿撒勒人耶穌。’ 9 跟我在一起的人，只看見那光，卻聽不清楚那位對我說話的聲音。 10 我說：‘主啊，我應當作甚麼呢？’主說：‘起來，進大馬士革去，在那裡有人會把指定給你作的一切事告訴你。’ 11 因為那光太強烈，我的眼睛就瞎了，跟我在一起的人就牽著我的手，進了大馬士革。
12 “有一個人名叫亞拿尼亞的，他是一個虔誠而遵守律法的人，當地所有的猶太人都稱讚他。 13 他來見我，站在我旁邊，對我說：‘掃羅弟兄，你現在可以看見了。’我立刻往上一看，看見了他。 14 他又說：‘我們祖先的 神選派了你，讓你明白他的旨意，看見那義者，聽見他口中的聲音。 15 因為你要把所看見所聽見的，向萬人為他作見證。 16 現在你為甚麼還耽擱呢？起來受洗，求告他的名，洗淨你的罪吧。’
保羅蒙差遣向外族人傳福音
17 “後來，我回到耶路撒冷，在殿裡禱告的時候，魂遊象外， 18 看見主對我說：‘你要快快離開耶路撒冷，因為你為我作的見證，他們是不會接受的。’ 19 我說：‘主啊，他們知道我曾把信你的人監禁起來，又在各會堂拷打他們， 20 並且你的見證人司提反受害流血的時候，我也親自在場，表示同意，並且為殺他的人看守衣服。’ 21 他對我說：‘你走吧，我要派你到遠方的外族人那裡去。’”
保羅與千夫長
22 眾人聽見他說到這句話，就高聲說：“這樣的人應該從地上除掉，不應該活著！” 23 大家正在喊叫著，拋擲衣服，向空中揚灰撒土的時候， 24 千夫長下令把保羅帶到營樓去，吩咐人用鞭子拷問他，要知道群眾為甚麼這樣向他喊叫。 25 士兵正用皮帶綁他的時候，保羅對站在旁邊的百夫長說：“你們鞭打一個還沒有定罪的羅馬公民，是合法的嗎？” 26 百夫長聽了，就去報告千夫長，說：“這個人是羅馬公民，你要怎麼辦呢？” 27 千夫長就來問保羅：“告訴我，你是羅馬公民嗎？”他說：“是的。” 28 千夫長說：“我花了一大筆錢，才取得羅馬籍。”保羅說：“我生下來就是羅馬公民。” 29 於是那些要拷問他的人，立刻離開他走了。千夫長既知道他是羅馬公民，又因捆綁過他，就害怕起來。
保羅在公議會面前申辯
30 第二天，千夫長為要知道猶太人控告保羅的真相，就解開他，召集了祭司長和公議會全體在一起，把保羅帶下來，叫他站在他們面前。

22 「諸位父老弟兄，請聽我現在對你們的申辯。」 2 他們聽保羅說的是希伯來話，就更加安靜了。 3 保羅說：「我原是猶太人，生在基利家的大數，但在這城裏長大，在迦瑪列門下按着我們祖宗嚴緊的律法受教，熱心事奉 神，就如你們大家今日一樣。 4 我也曾迫害信奉這道路的人，置他們於死地，無論男女都捆綁，關在監裏。 5 這是大祭司和議會的眾長老都可以給我作證的。我又從他們那裏領了致弟兄們的書信，往大馬士革去，要把在那裏的信徒綁起來，帶到耶路撒冷受刑。」
保羅敘述歸主的經過
6 「當我走近大馬士革的時候，約在中午，忽然有一道大光從天上下來，照射在我周圍。 7 我就仆倒在地，聽見有聲音對我說：『掃羅！掃羅！你為甚麼迫害我？』 8 我回答：『主啊！你是誰？』他對我說：『我就是你所迫害的拿撒勒人耶穌。』 9 跟我一起的人看見了那光，卻沒有聽見那位對我說話的聲音。 10 我說：『主啊，我該做甚麼？』主說：『起來，進大馬士革去，在那裏有人會把指派你做的一切事告訴你。』 11 我因那光的閃耀不能看見，跟我一起的人就拉着我的手進了大馬士革。
12 「那裏有一個人，名叫亞拿尼亞，按着律法是虔誠人，為所有住在那裏的猶太人所稱讚。 13 他來見我，站在旁邊，對我說：『掃羅弟兄，你看見吧！』就在那時，我恢復視覺，看見了他。 14 他又說：『我們祖宗的 神揀選了你，讓你明白他的旨意，又看見那義者，聽見他口中所出的聲音。 15 因為你要將所看見的、所聽見的，對着萬人作他的見證人。 16 現在你為甚麼躭延呢？起來，受洗，求告他的名，洗去你的罪。』」
保羅奉召向外邦人傳道
17 「後來，我回到耶路撒冷，在聖殿裏禱告的時候，魂遊象外， 18 看見主對我說：『你趕緊離開耶路撒冷，越快越好，因為這裏的人不接受你為我作的見證。』 19 我就說：『主啊，他們都知道，我從前在各會堂裏把信你的人監禁，又鞭打他們。 20 當你的見證人司提反被害流血的時候，我也站在一旁贊同；又為打死他的人看守衣裳。』 21 主對我說：『你去吧！我要差你到遠方外邦人那裏去。』」
保羅與長官交涉
22 眾人聽他說到這句話，就高聲說：「這樣的人，從地上除掉他吧！他是該死的。」 23 大家一邊喧嚷一邊摔衣裳，向空中撒灰塵。 24 千夫長下令把保羅帶進營樓，叫人用鞭子拷問他，要知道他們向他這樣喧嚷是甚麼緣故。 25 他們剛用皮條把他捆上的時候，保羅對站在旁邊的百夫長說：「一個羅馬人，又未被定罪，你們就鞭打他是合法的嗎？」 26 百夫長聽見這話，就去見千夫長，報告說：「你要怎麼辦呢？這個人是羅馬人。」 27 千夫長就來問保羅：「你告訴我，你是羅馬人嗎？」保羅說：「是。」 28 千夫長回答：「我用了許多銀子才得到羅馬公民的身份。」保羅說：「我生來就是。」 29 於是那些要拷問保羅的人立刻離開他走了。千夫長一知道他是羅馬人，又因為曾捆綁了他，也害怕起來。
保羅在議會前申訴
30 第二天，千夫長為要知道猶太人控告保羅的實情，就解開他，下令祭司長們和全議會的人都聚集，然後將保羅帶下來，叫他站在他們面前。
Acts 22
New International Version
Acts 22
New International Version
22 1 “Brothers and fathers,(A) listen now to my defense.”
2 When they heard him speak to them in Aramaic,(B) they became very quiet.
Then Paul said: 3 “I am a Jew,(C) born in Tarsus(D) of Cilicia,(E) but brought up in this city. I studied under(F) Gamaliel(G) and was thoroughly trained in the law of our ancestors.(H) I was just as zealous(I) for God as any of you are today. 4 I persecuted(J) the followers of this Way(K) to their death, arresting both men and women and throwing them into prison,(L) 5 as the high priest and all the Council(M) can themselves testify. I even obtained letters from them to their associates(N) in Damascus,(O) and went there to bring these people as prisoners to Jerusalem to be punished.
6 “About noon as I came near Damascus, suddenly a bright light from heaven flashed around me.(P) 7 I fell to the ground and heard a voice say to me, ‘Saul! Saul! Why do you persecute me?’
8 “‘Who are you, Lord?’ I asked.
“ ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth,(Q) whom you are persecuting,’ he replied. 9 My companions saw the light,(R) but they did not understand the voice(S) of him who was speaking to me.
10 “‘What shall I do, Lord?’ I asked.
“ ‘Get up,’ the Lord said, ‘and go into Damascus. There you will be told all that you have been assigned to do.’(T) 11 My companions led me by the hand into Damascus, because the brilliance of the light had blinded me.(U)
12 “A man named Ananias came to see me.(V) He was a devout observer of the law and highly respected by all the Jews living there.(W) 13 He stood beside me and said, ‘Brother Saul, receive your sight!’ And at that very moment I was able to see him.
14 “Then he said: ‘The God of our ancestors(X) has chosen you to know his will and to see(Y) the Righteous One(Z) and to hear words from his mouth. 15 You will be his witness(AA) to all people of what you have seen(AB) and heard. 16 And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized(AC) and wash your sins away,(AD) calling on his name.’(AE)
17 “When I returned to Jerusalem(AF) and was praying at the temple, I fell into a trance(AG) 18 and saw the Lord speaking to me. ‘Quick!’ he said. ‘Leave Jerusalem immediately, because the people here will not accept your testimony about me.’
19 “‘Lord,’ I replied, ‘these people know that I went from one synagogue to another to imprison(AH) and beat(AI) those who believe in you. 20 And when the blood of your martyr[a] Stephen was shed, I stood there giving my approval and guarding the clothes of those who were killing him.’(AJ)
21 “Then the Lord said to me, ‘Go; I will send you far away to the Gentiles.’ ”(AK)
Paul the Roman Citizen
22 The crowd listened to Paul until he said this. Then they raised their voices and shouted, “Rid the earth of him!(AL) He’s not fit to live!”(AM)
23 As they were shouting and throwing off their cloaks(AN) and flinging dust into the air,(AO) 24 the commander ordered that Paul be taken into the barracks.(AP) He directed(AQ) that he be flogged and interrogated in order to find out why the people were shouting at him like this. 25 As they stretched him out to flog him, Paul said to the centurion standing there, “Is it legal for you to flog a Roman citizen who hasn’t even been found guilty?”(AR)
26 When the centurion heard this, he went to the commander and reported it. “What are you going to do?” he asked. “This man is a Roman citizen.”
27 The commander went to Paul and asked, “Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?”
“Yes, I am,” he answered.
28 Then the commander said, “I had to pay a lot of money for my citizenship.”
“But I was born a citizen,” Paul replied.
29 Those who were about to interrogate him(AS) withdrew immediately. The commander himself was alarmed when he realized that he had put Paul, a Roman citizen,(AT) in chains.(AU)
Paul Before the Sanhedrin
30 The commander wanted to find out exactly why Paul was being accused by the Jews.(AV) So the next day he released him(AW) and ordered the chief priests and all the members of the Sanhedrin(AX) to assemble. Then he brought Paul and had him stand before them.

Paul’s Defense at Jerusalem
22 “Brethren(A) and fathers, hear my defense before you now.” 2 And when they heard that he spoke to them in the (B)Hebrew language, they kept all the more silent.
Then he said: 3 (C)“I am indeed a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city (D)at the feet of (E)Gamaliel, taught (F)according to the strictness of our fathers’ law, and (G)was zealous toward God (H)as you all are today. 4 (I)I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women, 5 as also the high priest bears me witness, and (J)all the council of the elders, (K)from whom I also received letters to the brethren, and went to Damascus (L)to bring in chains even those who were there to Jerusalem to be punished.
6 “Now (M)it happened, as I journeyed and came near Damascus at about noon, suddenly a great light from heaven shone around me. 7 And I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?’ 8 So I answered, ‘Who are You, Lord?’ And He said to me, ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting.’
9 “And (N)those who were with me indeed saw the light [a]and were afraid, but they did not hear the voice of Him who spoke to me. 10 So I said, ‘What shall I do, Lord?’ And the Lord said to me, ‘Arise and go into Damascus, and there you will be told all things which are appointed for you to do.’ 11 And since I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of those who were with me, I came into Damascus.
12 “Then (O)a certain Ananias, a devout man according to the law, (P)having a good testimony with all the (Q)Jews who dwelt there, 13 came to me; and he stood and said to me, ‘Brother Saul, receive your sight.’ And at that same hour I looked up at him. 14 Then he said, (R)‘The God of our fathers (S)has chosen you that you should (T)know His will, and (U)see the Just One, (V)and hear the voice of His mouth. 15 (W)For you will be His witness to all men of (X)what you have seen and heard. 16 And now why are you waiting? Arise and be baptized, (Y)and wash away your sins, (Z)calling on the name of the Lord.’
17 “Now (AA)it happened, when I returned to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple, that I was in a trance 18 and (AB)saw Him saying to me, (AC)‘Make haste and get out of Jerusalem quickly, for they will not receive your testimony concerning Me.’ 19 So I said, ‘Lord, (AD)they know that in every synagogue I imprisoned and (AE)beat those who believe on You. 20 (AF)And when the blood of Your martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by (AG)consenting [b]to his death, and guarding the clothes of those who were killing him.’ 21 Then He said to me, ‘Depart, (AH)for I will send you far from here to the Gentiles.’ ”
Paul’s Roman Citizenship
22 And they listened to him until this word, and then they raised their voices and said, (AI)“Away with such a fellow from the earth, for (AJ)he is not fit to live!” 23 Then, as they cried out and [c]tore off their clothes and threw dust into the air, 24 the commander ordered him to be brought into the barracks, and said that he should be examined under scourging, so that he might know why they shouted so against him. 25 And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said to the centurion who stood by, (AK)“Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman, and uncondemned?”
26 When the centurion heard that, he went and told the commander, saying, “Take care what you do, for this man is a Roman.”
27 Then the commander came and said to him, “Tell me, are you a Roman?”
He said, “Yes.”
28 The commander answered, “With a large sum I obtained this citizenship.”
And Paul said, “But I was born a citizen.”
29 Then immediately those who were about to examine him withdrew from him; and the commander was also afraid after he found out that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him.
The Sanhedrin Divided
30 The next day, because he wanted to know for certain why he was accused by the Jews, he released him from his bonds, and commanded the chief priests and all their council to appear, and brought Paul down and set him before them.
