Then Agrippa said to Paul: Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul, stretching forth his hand, began to make his answer.

Agrippa vero ad Paulo dic: permitte ad te loque pro temetipso. Tunc Paulo extende manu incipe ratione redde:

2

De omnibus quibus accusor a Judæis, rex Agrippa, æstimo me beatum apud te cum sim defensurus me hodie,

I think myself happy, O king Agrippa, that I am to answer for myself this day before thee, touching all the things whereof I am accused by the Jews.

De omni ad que accusa ab Iudaeos, rege Agrippa, aestima me beato apud te cum es defende me hodie,

3

maxime te sciente omnia, et quæ apud Judæos sunt consuetudines et quæstiones: propter quod obsecro patienter me audias.

Especially as thou knowest all, both customs and questions, that are among the Jews. Wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.

Maximo te sci omni, et que apud Iudaeos es consuetudines et quaestiones: propter quod obsecra patienter me audi.

4

Et quidem vitam meam a juventute, quæ ab initio fuit in gente mea in Jerosolymis, noverunt omnes Judæi:

And my life indeed from my youth, which was from the beginning among my own nation in Jerusalem, all the Jews do know:

Et quidem omni Iudaeos ab iuventute, que ab initio es in gente meo in Ierosolymas, nosce vita meo:

5

præscientes me ab initio (si velint testimonium perhibere) quoniam secundum certissimam sectam nostræ religionis vixi pharisæus.

Having known me from the beginning (if they will give testimony) that according to the most sure sect of our religion I lived, a Pharisee.

Praescie me ab initio (si vol testimonio perhibe) quia secundo certo secta nostro de religione vive pharisaeo.

Et nunc, in spe quæ ad patres nostros repromissionis facta est a Deo, sto judicio subjectus:

And now for the hope of the promise that was made by God to the fathers, do I stand subject to judgment:

Et nunc, in spe que ad patres nostro de repromissione facto es ab Deo, sta iudicio subicie:

in quam duodecim tribus nostræ nocte ac die deservientes, sperant devenire. De qua spe accusor a Judæis, rex.

Unto which, our twelve tribes, serving night and day, hope to come. For which hope, O king, I am accused by the Jews.

8

Quid incredibile judicatur apud vos, si Deus mortuos suscitat?

Why should it be thought a thing incredible that God should raise the dead?

Quid incredibili iudica apud vos, si Deo suscita mortuo?

Et ego quidem existimaveram me adversus nomen Jesu Nazareni debere multa contraria agere,

And I indeed did formerly think that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

Et me quidem existima me contra nomine de Iesu de Nazareno debe multo contrario age,

Which also I did at Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority of the chief priests. And when they were put to death, I brought the sentence.

die media in via vidi, rex, de cælo supra splendorem solis circumfulsisse me lumen, et eos qui mecum simul erant.

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 that were in company with me.

Die medio in via vide, rege, de caelo supra splendore de sole circumfulge me lumine, et illos qui mecum simul es.

14

Omnesque nos cum decidissemus in terram, audivi vocem loquentem mihi hebraica lingua: Saule, Saule, quid me persequeris? durum est tibi contra stimulum calcitrare.

And when we were all fallen down on the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me in the Hebrew tongue: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? It is hard for thee to kick against the good.

Et omni nos cum decide in terra, audi voce loque ad me hebraico lingua: saule, Saule, quid me perseque? Duro es ad te contra stimulo calcitra.

eripiens te de populo et gentibus, in quas nunc ego mitto te,

Delivering thee from the people and from the nations unto which now I send thee:

Unde, rex Agrippa, non fui incredulus cælesti visioni:

Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not incredulous to the heavenly vision.

Unde, rege Agrippa, non es incredulus caelesti ad visione:

sed his qui sunt Damasci primum, et Jerosolymis, et in omnem regionem Judææ, et gentibus, annuntiabam, ut pœnitentiam agerent, et converterentur ad Deum, digna pœnitentiæ opera facientes.

But to them first that are at Damascus and at Jerusalem, and unto all the country of Judea, and to the Gentiles did I preach, that they should do penance and turn to God, doing works worthy of penance.

Auxilio autem adjutus Dei usque in hodiernum diem, sto, testificans minori atque majori, nihil extra dicens quam ea quæ prophetæ locuti sunt futura esse, et Moyses,

But being aided by the help of God, I stand unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying no other thing than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come to pass:

Auxilia autem adiuva de Deo usque in hodierna die, sta, testificor ad minimo et ad magna, nihil extra dicente quam illa que prophetas loque es es es, et Moyse,

23

si passibilis Christus, si primus ex resurrectione mortuorum, lumen annuntiaturus est populo et gentibus.

That Christ should suffer and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead and should shew light to the people and to the Gentiles.

Si passibile Christo, si primo ex resurrectione de mortuo, lumine annuntia es ad populo et ad gentes.

Hæc loquente eo, et rationem reddente, Festus magna voce dixit: Insanis, Paule: multæ te litteræ ad insaniam convertunt.

As he spoke these things and made his answer, Festus said with a loud voice: Paul, thou art beside thyself: much learning doth make thee mad.

Hoc loque eo, et ratione redde, Festo magna voce dic: insanas, Paulo: multo te litteras ad insania converte.

25

Et Paulus: Non insanio, inquit, optime Feste, sed veritatis et sobrietatis verba loquor.

And Paul said: I am not mad, most excellent Festus, but I speak words of truth and soberness.

Et Paulo: non insani, dic, bene Festo, sed de veritate et de sobrietate verbos loque.

26

Scit enim de his rex, ad quem et constanter loquor: latere enim eum nihil horum arbitror. Neque enim in angulo quidquam horum gestum est.

For the king knoweth of these things, to whom also I speak with confidence. For I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him. For neither was any of these things done in a corner.

Sci nam de hoc rege, ad quem et constanter loque: latere nam illo nihil de hoc arbitra. Neque nam in angulo ullo de hoc gere es.

Credis, rex Agrippa, prophetis? Scio quia credis.

Believest thou the prophets, O king Agrippa? I know that thou believest.

Et Paulus: Opto apud Deum, et in modico et in magno, non tantum te, sed etiam omnes qui audiunt hodie fieri tales, qualis et ego sum, exceptis vinculis his.

And Paul said: I would to God that both in a little and in much, not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, should become such as I also am, except these bands.

Et Paulo: opta apud Deo, et in modico et in magna, non tanto te, sed etiam omni qui audi hodie fieri tale, quale et me es, excipe vinculos hoc.
