Acts 26:1-32

26:1

Then
<1161>

Agrippa
<67>

said
<5346> (5713)

unto
<4314>

Paul
<3972>_,

Thou
<4671>

art permitted
<2010> (5743)

to speak
<3004> (5721)

for
<5228>

thyself
<4572>_.

Then
<5119>

Paul
<3972>

stretched forth
<1614> (5660)

the hand
<5495>_,

and answered for himself
<626> (5711)_:

26:2

I think
<2233> (5766)

myself
<1683>

happy
<3107>_,

king
<935>

Agrippa
<67>_,

because I shall
<3195> (5723)

answer for myself
<626> (5738)

this day
<4594>

before
<1909>

thee
<4675>

touching
<4012>

all the things
<3956>

whereof
<3739>

I am accused
<1458> (5743)

of
<5259>

the Jews
<2453>_:

26:3

Especially
<3122>

[because I know
<1492> (5761)_]

thee
<4571>

to be
<5607> (5752)

expert
<1109> <5037>

in all
<3956>

customs
<1485>

and
<2532>

questions
<2213>

which are among
<2596>

the Jews
<2453>_:

wherefore
<1352>

I beseech
<1189> (5736)

thee
<4675>

to hear
<191> (5658)

me
<3450>

patiently
<3116>_.

26:4

My
<3450>

manner
<3303> <3767>

of life
<981>

from
<1537>

my youth
<3503>_,

which
<3588>

was
<1096> (5637)

at
<575>

the first
<746>

among
<1722>

mine
<3450>

own nation
<1484>

at
<1722>

Jerusalem
<2414>_,

know
<2467> (5758)

all
<3956>

the Jews
<2453>_;

26:5

Which knew
<4267> (5723)

me
<3165>

from the beginning
<509>_,

if
<1437>

they would
<2309> (5725)

testify
<3140> (5721)_,

that
<3754>

after
<2596>

the most straitest
<196>

sect
<139>

of our
<2251>

religion
<2356>

I lived
<2198> (5656)

a Pharisee
<5330>_.

26:6

And
<2532>

now
<3568>

I stand
<2476> (5758)

and am judged
<2919> (5746)

for
<1909>

the hope
<1680>

of the promise
<1860>

made
<1096> (5637)

of
<5259>

God
<2316>

unto
<4314>

our fathers
<3962>_:

26:7

Unto
<1519>

which
<3739>

[promise] our
<2257>

twelve tribes
<1429>_,

instantly
<1722> <1616>

serving
<3000> (5723)

[God] day
<2250>

and
<2532>

night
<3571>_,

hope
<1679> (5719)

to come
<2658> (5658)_.

For
<4012>

which
<3739>

hope's sake
<1680>_,

king
<935>

Agrippa
<67>_,

I am accused
<1458> (5743)

of
<5259>

the Jews
<2453>_.

{day and night: Gr. night and day}

26:8

Why
<5101>

should it be thought a thing
<2919> (5743)

incredible
<571>

with
<3844>

you
<5213>_,

that
<1487>

God
<2316>

should raise
<1453> (5719)

the dead
<3498>_?

26:9

I
<1473>

verily
<3303> <3767>

thought
<1380> (5656)

with myself
<1683>_,

that I ought
<1163> (5750)

to do
<4238> (5658)

many things
<4183>

contrary
<1727>

to
<4314>

the name
<3686>

of Jesus
<2424>

of Nazareth
<3480>_.

26:10

Which thing
<3739>

I
<4160> (0)

also
<2532>

did
<4160> (5656)

in
<1722>

Jerusalem
<2414>_:

and
<2532>

many
<4183>

of the saints
<40>

did
<2623> (0)

I
<1473>

shut up
<2623> (5656)

in prison
<5438>_,

having received
<2983> (5631)

authority
<1849>

from
<3844>

the chief priests
<749>_;

and
<5037>

when they
<846>

were put to death
<337> (5746)_,

I gave
<2702> (5656)

my voice
<5586>

against [them].

26:11

And
<2532>

I punished
<5097> (5723)

them
<846>

oft
<4178>

in
<2596>

every
<3956>

synagogue
<4864>_,

and compelled
<315> (5707)

[them] to blaspheme
<987> (5721)_;

and
<5037>

being
<1693> (0)

exceedingly
<4057>

mad against
<1693> (5740)

them
<846>_,

I persecuted
<1377> (5707)

[them] even
<2532>

unto
<1519> <2193>

strange
<1854>

cities
<4172>_.

26:12

<2532>@ Whereupon
<1722> <3739>

as I went
<4198> (5740)

to
<1519>

Damascus
<1154>

with
<3326>

authority
<1849>

and
<2532>

commission
<2011>

from
<3844>

the chief priests
<749>_,

26:13

At midday
<2250> <3319>_,

O king
<935>_,

I saw
<1492> (5627)

in
<2596>

the way
<3598>

a light
<5457>

from heaven
<3771>_,

above
<5228>

the brightness
<2987>

of the sun
<2246>_,

shining round about
<4034> (5660)

me
<3165>

and
<2532>

them which journeyed
<4198> (5740)

with
<4862>

me
<1698>_.

26:14

And
<1161>

when we
<2257>

were
<2667> (0)

all
<3956>

fallen
<2667> (5631)

to
<1519>

the earth
<1093>_,

I heard
<191> (5656)

a voice
<5456>

speaking
<2980> (5723)

unto
<4314>

me
<3165>_,

and
<2532>

saying
<3004> (5723)

in the Hebrew
<1446>

tongue
<1258>_,

Saul
<4549>_,

why
<5101>

persecutest thou
<1377> (5719)

me
<3165>_?

[it is] hard
<4642>

for thee
<4671>

to kick
<2979> (5721)

against
<4314>

the pricks
<2759>_.

26:15

And
<1161>

I
<1473>

said
<2036> (5627)_,

Who
<5101>

art thou
<1488> (5748)_,

Lord
<2962>_?

And
<1161>

he said
<2036> (5627)_,

I
<1473>

am
<1510> (5748)

Jesus
<2424>

whom
<3739>

thou
<4771>

persecutest
<1377> (5719)_.

26:16

But
<235>

rise
<450> (5628)_,

and
<2532>

stand
<2476> (5628)

upon
<1909>

thy
<4675>

feet
<4228>_:

for
<1063>

I have appeared
<3700> (5681)

unto thee
<4671>

for
<1519>

this purpose
<5124>_,

to make
<4400> (5664)

thee
<4571>

a minister
<5257>

and
<2532>

a witness
<3144>

both
<5037>

of these things which
<3739>

thou hast seen
<1492> (5627)_,

and
<5037>

of those things in the which
<3739>

I will appear
<3700> (5701)

unto thee
<4671>_;

26:17

Delivering
<1807> (5734)

thee
<4571>

from
<1537>

the people
<2992>_,

and
<2532>

[from] the Gentiles
<1484>_,

unto
<1519>

whom
<3739>

now
<3568>

I send
<649> (5719)

thee
<4571>_,

26:18

To open
<455> (5658)

their
<846>

eyes
<3788>_,

[and] to turn
<1994> (5658)

[them] from
<575>

darkness
<4655>

to
<1519>

light
<5457>_,

and
<2532>

[from] the power
<1849>

of Satan
<4567>

unto
<1909>

God
<2316>_,

that they
<846>

may receive
<2983> (5629)

forgiveness
<859>

of sins
<266>_,

and
<2532>

inheritance
<2819>

among
<1722>

them which are sanctified
<37> (5772)

by faith
<4102>

that is in
<1519>

me
<1691>_.

26:19

Whereupon
<3606>_,

O king
<935>

Agrippa
<67>_,

I was
<1096> (5633)

not
<3756>

disobedient
<545>

unto the heavenly
<3770>

vision
<3701>_:

26:20

But
<235>

shewed
<518> (5723) (5625) <518> (5707)

first
<4412>

unto them of
<1722>

Damascus
<1154>_,

and
<2532>

at Jerusalem
<2414>_,

and
<5037>

throughout
<1519>

all
<3956>

the coasts
<5561>

of Judaea
<2449>_,

and
<2532>

[then] to the Gentiles
<1484>_,

that they should repent
<3340> (5721)

and
<2532>

turn
<1994> (5721)

to
<1909>

God
<2316>_,

and do
<4238> (5723)

works
<2041>

meet
<514>

for repentance
<3341>_.

26:21

For
<1752>

these causes
<5130>

the Jews
<2453>

caught
<4815> (5642)

me
<3165>

in
<1722>

the temple
<2411>_,

and went about
<3987> (5711)

to kill
<1315> (5670)

[me].

26:22

Having
<5177> (0)

therefore
<3767>

obtained
<5177> (5631)

help
<1947>

of
<3844>

God
<2316>_,

I continue
<2476> (5758)

unto
<891>

this
<5026>

day
<2250>_,

witnessing
<3140> (5746)

both
<5037>

to small
<3398>

and
<2532>

great
<3173>_,

saying
<3004> (5723)

none other things
<3762>

than
<1622>

those which
<3739> <5037>

the prophets
<4396>

and
<2532>

Moses
<3475>

did say
<2980> (5656)

should
<3195> (5723)

come
<1096> (5738)_:

26:23

That
<1487>

Christ
<5547>

should suffer
<3805>_,

[and] that
<1487>

he should be the first
<4413>

that should rise
<386>

from
<1537>

the dead
<3498>_,

and should
<3195> (5719)

shew
<2605> (5721)

light
<5457>

unto the people
<2992>_,

and
<2532>

to the Gentiles
<1484>_.

26:24

And
<1161>

as he
<846>

thus
<5023>

spake for himself
<626> (5740)_,

Festus
<5347>

said
<5346> (5713)

with a loud
<3173>

voice
<5456>_,

Paul
<3972>_,

thou art beside thyself
<3105> (5736)_;

much
<4183>

learning
<1121>

doth make
<4062> (5719)

thee
<4571>

mad
<1519> <3130>_.

26:25

But
<1161>

he said
<5346> (5748)_,

I am
<3105> (0)

not
<3756>

mad
<3105> (5736)_,

most noble
<2903>

Festus
<5347>_;

but
<235>

speak forth
<669> (5736)

the words
<4487>

of truth
<225>

and
<2532>

soberness
<4997>_.

26:26

For
<1063>

the king
<935>

knoweth
<1987> (5736)

of
<4012>

these
<5130>

things, before
<4314>

whom
<3739>

also
<2532>

I speak
<2980> (5719)

freely
<3955> (5740)_:

for
<1063>

I am persuaded
<3982> (5743)

that
<3756>

none
<5100> <3762>

of these things
<5130>

are hidden
<2990> (5721)

from him
<846>_;

for
<1063>

this thing
<5124>

was
<2076> (5748)

not
<3756>

done
<4238> (5772)

in
<1722>

a corner
<1137>_.

26:27

King
<935>

Agrippa
<67>_,

believest thou
<4100> (5719)

the prophets
<4396>_?

I know
<1492> (5758)

that
<3754>

thou believest
<4100> (5719)_.

26:28

Then
<1161>

Agrippa
<67>

said
<5346> (5713)

unto
<4314>

Paul
<3972>_,

Almost
<1722> <3641>

thou persuadest
<3982> (5719)

me
<3165>

to be
<1096> (5635)

a Christian
<5546>_.

26:29

And
<1161>

Paul
<3972>

said
<2036> (5627)_,

I would
<302> <2172> (5665)

to God
<2316>_,

that not
<3756>

only
<3440>

thou
<4571>_,

but
<235>

also
<2532>

all
<3956>

that hear
<191> (5723)

me
<3450>

this day
<4594>_,

were
<1096> (5635)

both
<2532>

almost
<1722> <3641>_,

and
<2532>

altogether
<1722> <4183>

such
<5108>

as
<3697> <2504>

I am
<1510> (5748)_,

except
<3924>

these
<5130>

bonds
<1199>_.

26:30

And
<2532>

when he
<846>

had
<2036> (0)

thus
<5023>

spoken
<2036> (5631)_,

the king
<935>

rose up
<450> (5627)_,

and
<2532>

the governor
<2232>_,

and
<5037>

Bernice
<959>_,

and
<2532>

they that sat with
<4775> (5740)

them
<846>_:

26:31

And
<2532>

when they were gone aside
<402> (5660)_,

they talked
<2980> (5707)

between
<4314>

themselves
<240>_,

saying
<3004> (5723)_,

<3754>

This
<3778>

man
<444>

doeth
<4238> (5719)

nothing
<3762>

worthy
<514>

of death
<2288>

or
<2228>

of bonds
<1199>_.

26:32

Then
<1161>

said
<5346> (5713)

Agrippa
<67>

unto Festus
<5347>_,

This
<3778>

man
<444>

might
<1410> (5711)

have been set at liberty
<630> (5771)_,

if
<1508> (0)

he had
<1941> (0)

not
<1508>

appealed unto
<1941> (5716)

Caesar
<2541>_.
