PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Y de allí á cinco días vino Ananías el Príncipe de los sacerdotes con algunos Ancianos, y con un cierto Tértulo orador, y comparecieron ante el Gobernador contra Pablo.
1 After five days, the high priest, Ananias, came down with certain elders and an orator, one Tertullus. They informed the governor against Paul.
1 Μετὰ δὲ πέντε ἡμέρας κατέβη ὁ ἀρχιερεὺς Ἀνανίας μετὰ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καὶ ῥήτορος Τερτύλλου τινός, οἵτινες ἐνεφάνισαν τῷ ἡγεμόνι κατὰ τοῦ Παύλου.
2 Y citando á Pablo, comenzó Tértulo á acusarle, diciendo: Como sea que nosotros por tí vivamos en grande paz, y muchas cosas sean corregidas por tus providencias;
2 When he was called, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, “Seeing that by you we enjoy much peace, and that prosperity is coming to this nation by your foresight,
2 κληθέντος δὲ αὐτοῦ ἤρξατο κατηγορεῖν ὁ Τέρτυλλος λέγων·
3 En todo tiempo y lugar lo reconocemos, Optimo Felix, con todo hacimiento de gracias.
3 we accept it in all ways and in all places, most excellent Felix, with all thankfulness.
3 πολλῆς εἰρήνης τυγχάνοντες διὰ σοῦ καὶ κατορθωμάτων γινομένων τῷ ἔθνει τούτῳ διὰ τῆς σῆς προνοίας, πάντῃ τε καὶ πανταχοῦ ἀποδεχόμεθα, κράτιστε Φῆλιξ, μετὰ πάσης εὐχαριστίας.
4 Mas por no detenerte mucho tiempo, te ruego, que según tu clemencia nos oigas un breve rato.
4 But that I don’t delay you, I entreat you to bear with us and hear a few words.
4 ἵνα δὲ μὴ ἐπὶ πλεῖόν σε ἐγκόπτω, παρακαλῶ ἀκοῦσαί σε ἡμῶν συντόμως τῇ σῇ ἐπιεικείᾳ.
5 Hemos hallado que éste hombre es pestilencial, y que levanta sediciones á los Judíos por todo el mundo, y es cabeza de la secta sediciosa de los Nazarenos:
5 For we have found this man to be a plague, an instigator of insurrections among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes.
5 εὑρόντες γὰρ τὸν ἄνδρα τοῦτον λοιμὸν καὶ κινοῦντα στάσιν πᾶσι τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις τοῖς κατὰ τὴν οἰκουμένην, πρωτοστάτην τε τῆς τῶν Ναζωραίων αἱρέσεως,
6 El qual intentó ademas profanar el templo. Y habiéndole prendido, le quisimos juzgar según nuestra ley.
6 He even tried to profane the temple, and we arrested him.
6 ὃς καὶ τὸ ἱερὸν ἐπείρασε βεβηλῶσαι, ὃν καὶ ἐκρατήσαμεν [καὶ κατὰ τὸν ἡμέτερον νόμον ἠθελήσαμεν κρίνειν·
7 Mas sobreviniendo el Tribuno Lysias, con gran violencia nos lo quitó de las manos,
7 Not in this translation
7 παρελθὼν δὲ Λυσίας ὁ χιλίαρχος μετὰ πολλῆς βίας ἐκ τῶν χειρῶν ἡμῶν ἀπήγαγε,
8 Mandando que acudiesen á tí sus acusadores. De él podrás tú mismo juzgando, tomar conocimiento de todas éstas cosas que le acusamos.
8 By examining him yourself you may ascertain all these things of which we accuse him.”
8 κελεύσας τοὺς κατηγόρους αὐτοῦ ἔρχεσθαι ἐπὶ σέ]· παρ᾽ οὗ δυνήσῃ αὐτὸς ἀνακρίνας περὶ πάντων τούτων ἐπιγνῶναι ὧν ἡμεῖς κατηγοροῦμεν αὐτοῦ.
9 Y también los Judíos añadiéron, diciendo que esto era así.
9 The Jews also joined in the attack, affirming that these things were so.
9 συνεπέθεντο δὲ καὶ οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι φάσκοντες ταῦτα οὕτως ἔχειν.
10 Mas Pablo, haciéndole señal el Gobernador que hablase, respondió: Sabiendo que eres Juez de ésta nación muchos años ha, con buen ánimo satisfaré por mí.
10 When the governor had beckoned to him to speak, Paul answered, “Because I know that you have been a judge of this nation for many years, I cheerfully make my defense,
10 Ἀπεκρίθη δὲ ὁ Παῦλος, νεύσαντος αὐτῷ τοῦ ἡγεμόνος λέγειν· ἐκ πολλῶν ἐτῶν ὄντα σε κριτὴν τῷ ἔθνει τούτῳ ἐπιστάμενος εὐθυμότερον τὰ περὶ ἐμαυτοῦ ἀπολογοῦμαι,
11 Porque puedes fácilmente saber, que no ha mas de doce días que yo subí á Jerusalém á adorar:
11 seeing that you can verify that it is not more than twelve days since I went up to worship at Jerusalem.
11 δυναμένου σου γνῶναι ὅτι οὐ πλείους εἰσί μοι ἡμέραι δεκαδύο ἀφ᾽ ἧς ἀνέβην προσκυνήσων εἰς Ἱερουσαλήμ·
12 Y ni me halláron en el templo disputando con alguno, ni haciendo concurso de gente, ni en las Synagogas,
12 In the temple they didn’t find me disputing with anyone or stirring up a crowd, either in the synagogues or in the city.
12 καὶ οὔτε ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ εὗρόν με πρός τινα διαλεγόμενον ἢ ἐπισύστασιν ποιοῦντα ὄχλου, οὔτε ἐν ταῖς συναγωγαῖς οὔτε κατὰ τὴν πόλιν·
13 Ni en la ciudad: ni te pueden probar las cosas de que ahora me acusan.
13 Nor can they prove to you the things of which they now accuse me.
13 οὔτε παραστῆσαι δύνανται περὶ ὧν νῦν κατηγοροῦσί μου.
14 Pero confieso esto delante de tí, que según la secta que ellos dicen heregía, sirvo yo á mi Padre y Dios, creyendo todas las cosas que están escritas en la Ley, y en los Prophetas:
14 But this I confess to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, so I serve the God of our fathers, believing all things which are according to the law, and which are written in the prophets;
14 ὁμολογῶ δὲ τοῦτό σοι, ὅτι κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν ἣν λέγουσιν αἵρεσιν οὕτω λατρεύω τῷ πατρῴῳ Θεῷ, πιστεύων πᾶσι τοῖς κατὰ τὸν νόμον καὶ [τοῖς ἐν] τοῖς προφήταις γεγραμμένοις,
15 Teniendo esperanza en Dios, como ellos mismos esperan, que ha de ser la resurrección de los justos, y de los pecadores.
15 having hope toward God, which these also themselves look for, that there will be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
15 ἐλπίδα ἔχων εἰς τὸν Θεὸν ἣν καὶ αὐτοὶ οὗτοι προσδέχονται, ἀνάστασιν μέλλειν ἔσεσθαι νεκρῶν, δικαίων τε καὶ ἀδίκων·
16 Y por esto procuro tener siempre mi conciencia sin tropiezo delante de Dios, y de los hombres.
16 In this I also practice always having a conscience void of offense toward God and men.
16 ἐν τούτῳ δὲ καὶ αὐτὸς ἀσκῶ ἀπρόσκοπον συνείδησιν ἔχειν πρὸς τὸν Θεὸν καὶ τοὺς ἀνθρώπους διὰ παντός.
17 Y después de muchos años vine á mi gente á hacer limosnas, y ofrendas, y votos.
17 Now after some years, I came to bring gifts for the needy to my nation, and offerings;
17 δι᾽ ἐτῶν δὲ πλειόνων παρεγενόμην ἐλεημοσύνας ποιήσων εἰς τὸ ἔθνος μου καὶ προσφοράς·
18 Y en esto me halláron purificado en el templo: no con gente, ni con alboroto.
18 amid which certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, not with a mob, nor with turmoil.
18 ἐν οἷς εὗρόν με ἡγνισμένον ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ, οὐ μετὰ ὄχλου οὐδὲ μετὰ θορύβου, τινὲς ἀπὸ τῆς Ἀσίας Ἰουδαῖοι,
19 Y estos fuéron unos Judíos de Asia, que debian comparecer ante tí, y acusarme, si tenian algo contra mí:
19 They ought to have been here before you and to make accusation if they had anything against me.
19 οὓς ἔδει ἐπὶ σοῦ παρεῖναι καὶ κατηγορεῖν εἴ τι ἔχοιεν πρός με.
20 O estos mismos digan, si halláron en mí maldad alguna, quando yo comparecí en el Concilio,
20 Or else let these men themselves say what injustice they found in me when I stood before the council,
20 ἢ αὐτοὶ οὗτοι εἰπάτωσαν τί εὗρον ἐν ἐμοὶ ἀδίκημα στάντος μου ἐπὶ τοῦ συνεδρίου,
21 Sino solo de éstas palabras, que proferí en alta voz estando en medio de ellos: Por la resurrección de los muertos soy yo juzgado hoy de vosotros.
21 unless it is for this one thing that I cried standing among them, ‘Concerning the resurrection of the dead I am being judged before you today!’”
21 ἢ περὶ μιᾶς ταύτης φωνῆς ἧς ἔκραξα ἑστὼς ἐν αὐτοῖς, ὅτι περὶ ἀναστάσεως νεκρῶν ἐγὼ κρίνομαι σήμερον ὑφ᾽ ὑμῶν.
22 Felix pues, sabiendo ciertamente las cosas de éste camino, los remitió á otro tiempo, diciendo: Quando viniere el Tribuno Lysias, os daré audiencia.
22 But Felix, having more exact knowledge concerning the Way, deferred them, saying, “When Lysias, the commanding officer, comes down, I will decide your case.”
22 Ἀκούσας δὲ ταῦτα ὁ Φῆλιξ ἀνεβάλετο αὐτούς, ἀκριβέστερον εἰδὼς τὰ περὶ τῆς ὁδοῦ, εἰπών· ὅταν Λυσίας ὁ χιλίαρχος καταβῇ, διαγνώσομαι τὰ καθ᾽ ὑμᾶς,
23 Y le mandó guardar á un Centurion, y que tuviese alivio, y que no vedase á ninguno de los suyos entrar á asistirle.
23 He ordered the centurion that Paul should be kept in custody and should have some privileges, and not to forbid any of his friends to serve him or to visit him.
23 διαταξάμενός τε τῷ ἑκατοντάρχῃ τηρεῖσθαι τὸν Παῦλον ἔχειν τε ἄνεσιν καὶ μηδένα κωλύειν τῶν ἰδίων αὐτοῦ ὑπηρετεῖν ἢ προσέρχεσθαι αὐτῷ.
24 Y después de algunos días vino Felix con Drusila su muger, que era Judía: y llamó á Pablo, y le oyó hablar de la fé, que es en Jesu-Christo.
24 After some days, Felix came with Drusilla his wife, who was a Jewess, and sent for Paul and heard him concerning the faith in Christ Jesus.
24 Μετὰ δὲ ἡμέρας τινὰς παραγενόμενος ὁ Φῆλιξ σὺν Δρουσίλλῃ τῇ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ, οὔσῃ Ἰουδαίᾳ, μετεπέμψατο τὸν Παῦλον καὶ ἤκουσεν αὐτοῦ περὶ τῆς εἰς Χριστὸν πίστεως.
25 Mas como disputase Pablo de la justicia, y de la castidad, y del juicio, que ha de venir, espantado Felix, dixo: Por ahora véte, que quando fuere menester te volveré á llamar:
25 As he reasoned about righteousness, self-control, and the judgment to come, Felix was terrified, and answered, “Go your way for this time, and when it is convenient for me, I will summon you.”
25 διαλεγομένου δὲ αὐτοῦ περὶ δικαιοσύνης καὶ ἐγκρατείας καὶ τοῦ κρίματος τοῦ μέλλοντος ἔσεσθαι, ἔμφοβος γενόμενος ὁ Φῆλιξ ἀπεκρίθη· τὸ νῦν ἔχον πορεύου, καιρὸν δὲ μεταλαβὼν μετακαλέσομαί σε,
26 Esperando asimismo, que Pablo le daria dinero: y por eso le hacía llamar muchas veces, y hablaba con él.
26 Meanwhile, he also hoped that money would be given to him by Paul, that he might release him. Therefore also he sent for him more often and talked with him.
26 ἅμα δὲ καὶ ἐλπίζων ὅτι χρήματα δοθήσεται αὐτῷ ὑπὸ τοῦ Παύλου ὅπως λύσῃ αὐτόν· διὸ καὶ πυκνότερον αὐτὸν μεταπεμπόμενος ὡμίλει αὐτῷ.
27 Mas al cabo de dos años, tuvo Felix por sucesor á Pórcio Festo. Y queriendo ganar la gracia de los Judíos, dexó á Pablo en prisiones.
27 But when two years were fulfilled, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus, and desiring to gain favor with the Jews, Felix left Paul in bonds.
27 Διετίας δὲ πληρωθείσης ἔλαβε διάδοχον ὁ Φῆλιξ Πόρκιον Φῆστον· θέλων δὲ χάριν καταθέσθαι τοῖς Ἰουδαίοις ὁ Φῆλιξ κατέλιπε τὸν Παῦλον δεδεμένον.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
See how much close investigation is made by the many in a long course of time, that it should not be said that the trial was hurried over. For, as the orator had made mention of Lysias, that he took "him away with violence, Felix," he says, "deferred them.
