使徒行传 26
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
保罗在亚基帕王面前申辩(A)
26 亚基帕对保罗说：“准你为自己申辩。”于是保罗伸手辩护说： 2 “亚基帕王啊，犹太人控告我的事，今天我可以在你面前辩护，实在是万幸； 3 特别是你熟悉犹太人的一切规例和争论，所以求你耐心听我申诉： 4 我从幼年到现在，在本国、在耶路撒冷为人怎样，犹太人都知道。 5 如果他们肯作证的话，他们是早就知道，我是按着我们祖宗最严格的教派，过着法利赛人的生活。 6 现在我站着受审，是为了对 神向我们祖先的应许存着盼望。 7 我们十二支派昼夜切切地事奉 神，都是盼望这应许实现。王啊，我被犹太人控告，正是为了这个盼望。 8 神使死人复活，你们为甚么认为是不可信的呢？ 9 从前，我也认为应该多方敌对拿撒勒人耶稣的名。 10 后来就在耶路撒冷这样作了。我得到了众祭司长授权，把许多圣徒关在监里，并且他们被杀的时候，我也表示同意。 11 我在各会堂里多次用刑强迫他们说亵渎的话；我非常愤恨他们，甚至追到国外的城巿去迫害他们。
12 “那时候，我得到祭司长的授权和准许，去大马士革。 13 王啊，就在中午的时候，我在路上看见一道光，比太阳更明亮，从天上四面照着我和同行的人。 14 我们都仆倒在地上，我听见有声音用希伯来话对我说：‘扫罗！扫罗！你为甚么迫害我？你要踢刺是难的。’ 15 我说：‘主啊，你是谁？’主说：‘我就是你所迫害的耶稣。 16 你起来，站着，我向你显现，是要指派你为我工作。你要为你所见过的事，和我将要向你显明的事作见证。 17 我要救你脱离这人民和外族人，差遣你到他们那里去， 18 开他们的眼睛，使他们从黑暗中归向光明，从撒但的权下归向 神，使他们的罪恶得到赦免，并且在那些因信我而成圣的人中同得基业。’
19 “亚基帕王啊，因此，我没有违背这从天上来的异象， 20 先向大马士革、耶路撒冷、犹太全地的人宣讲，后向外族人宣讲，叫他们悔改，归向 神，行事与悔改的心相称。 21 犹太人就是为了这缘故在殿里捉住我，想要杀我。 22 然而，我得到 神的帮助，直到今日还是站得稳，向尊卑老幼作见证，我所讲的都是众先知和摩西所论的将来必成的事， 23 就是基督必须受难，并且从死人中首先复活，把光明的信息传报给这人民和外族人。”
保罗说服亚基帕王
24 保罗申诉到这里，非斯都大声说：“保罗！你疯了；你的学问太大，使你疯了！” 25 保罗说：“非斯都大人，我没有疯，我说的都是真实的话，清醒的话。 26 因为王知道这些事，所以我对王坦白直说。我确信这些事没有一件能瞒得过他，因为这不是在背地里作的。 27 亚基帕王啊，你信先知吗？我知道你是信的。” 28 亚基帕对保罗说：“你想用这样短短的时间就可以说服我作基督徒吗！” 29 保罗说：“无论时间短也好，时间长也好，我向 神所求的，不单是你，而且是今天所有的听众，都能像我一样作基督徒，只是不要有这些锁炼。”
30 亚基帕王、总督和百尼基，还有在座的人都站起来， 31 退到一边，彼此谈论，说：“这个人并没有犯过甚么该死该绑的罪。” 32 亚基帕对非斯都说：“这个人若没有向凯撒上诉，早就可以释放了。”

保罗在亚基帕王面前申辩
26 亚基帕对保罗说：“准你为自己辩护。”于是保罗伸手示意，然后为自己辩护说： 2 “亚基帕王啊，面对犹太人对我的种种控告，我今天很荣幸可以在你面前申辩， 3 尤其是你对犹太习俗和各种争议都十分熟悉。因此，求你耐心听我说。
4 “我从小在本族和耶路撒冷为人如何，犹太人都知道。 5 他们认识我很久了，如果他们肯作证的话，他们可以证明我从小就属于犹太教中最严格的法利赛派。 6 现在我站在这里受审，是因为我盼望上帝给我们祖先的应许。 7 我们十二支派日夜虔诚地事奉上帝，盼望这应许能够实现。王啊！就是因为我有这样的盼望，才被犹太人控告。 8 上帝叫死人复活，你们为什么认为不可信呢？ 9 我自己也曾经认为应该尽一切可能反对拿撒勒人耶稣。 10 我在耶路撒冷就是这样做的。我得到祭司长的授权，把许多圣徒[a]关进监狱。他们被判死刑，我也表示赞同。 11 我多次在各会堂惩罚他们，逼他们说亵渎的话，我对他们深恶痛绝，甚至到国外的城镇去追捕、迫害他们。
保罗信主的经过
12 “那时，我带着祭司长的授权和委托去大马士革。 13 王啊！大约中午时分，我在路上看见一道比太阳还亮的光从天上照在我和同行的人周围。 14 我们都倒在地上，我听见有声音用希伯来话对我说，‘扫罗！扫罗！你为什么迫害我？你很难用脚去踢刺。’ 15 我说，‘主啊，你是谁？’主说，‘我就是你所迫害的耶稣。 16 你站起来。我向你显现，是要派你做我的仆人和见证人，把你所看见的和以后我将启示给你的事告诉世人。 17 我将把你从你的同胞和外族人手中救出来。我差遣你到他们那里， 18 去开他们的眼睛，使他们弃暗投明，脱离魔鬼的权势，归向上帝，好叫他们的罪得到赦免，与所有因信我而圣洁的人同得基业。’
保罗放胆传道
19 “亚基帕王啊！我没有违背这从天上来的异象。 20 我先在大马士革，然后到耶路撒冷、犹太全境和外族人当中劝人悔改归向上帝，行事为人要与悔改的心相称。 21 就因为这些事，犹太人在圣殿中抓住我，打算杀我。 22 然而，我靠着上帝的帮助，到今天还能站在这里向所有尊卑老幼做见证。我讲的不外乎众先知和摩西说过要发生的事， 23 就是基督必须受害，并首先从死里复活，将光明带给犹太人和外族人。”
24 这时，非斯都打断保罗的申辩，大声说：“保罗，你疯了！一定是你的学问太大，使你神经错乱了！”
25 保罗说：“非斯都大人，我没有疯。我讲的话真实、合理。 26 王了解这些事，所以我才敢在王面前直言。我相信这些事没有一件瞒得过王，因为这些事并非暗地里做的。 27 亚基帕王啊，你信先知吗？我知道你信。”
28 亚基帕王对保罗说：“难道你想三言两语就说服我成为基督徒吗？”
29 保罗说：“不论话多话少，我求上帝不仅使你，也使今天在座的各位都能像我一样，只是不要像我这样带着锁链。”
30 亚基帕王、总督、百妮姬及其他在座的人都站起来， 31 走到一边商量说：“这人没有做什么该判死刑或监禁的事。” 32 亚基帕王对非斯都说：“这人要是没有向凯撒上诉，已经可以获释了。”

Acts 26
King James Version
26 Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and answered for himself:
2 I think myself happy, king Agrippa, because I shall answer for myself this day before thee touching all the things whereof I am accused of the Jews:
3 Especially because I know thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.
4 My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among mine own nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews;
5 Which knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after the most straitest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.
6 And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God, unto our fathers:
7 Unto which promise our twelve tribes, instantly serving God day and night, hope to come. For which hope's sake, king Agrippa, I am accused of the Jews.
8 Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?
9 I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.
10 Which thing I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I gave my voice against them.
11 And I punished them oft in every synagogue, and compelled them to blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even unto strange cities.
12 Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests,
13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me.
14 And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;
17 Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee,
18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
19 Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision:
20 But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.
21 For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to kill me.
22 Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come:
23 That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.
24 And as he thus spake for himself, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning doth make thee mad.
25 But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus; but speak forth the words of truth and soberness.
26 For the king knoweth of these things, before whom also I speak freely: for I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him; for this thing was not done in a corner.
27 King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know that thou believest.
28 Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.
29 And Paul said, I would to God, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds.
30 And when he had thus spoken, the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them:
31 And when they were gone aside, they talked between themselves, saying, This man doeth nothing worthy of death or of bonds.
32 Then said Agrippa unto Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed unto Caesar.
