Then saith
Pilate unto him, Speakest
thou not unto me? knowest
thou not that I have power to
crucify thee, and have power to release thee?
So
Pilate said to Him, “Do You refuse to speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You and authority to
crucify You?”
Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.
Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over Me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed Me over to you is guilty of greater sin.”
And from
thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews
cried out, saying, If
thou let this man go,
thou art not Caesar’s friend:
whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.
From then on,
Pilate tried to release Him, but the Jews kept
shouting, “If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar.
Anyone who declares himself a king is
defying Caesar.”

“Woman, why are you
weeping?” they asked. “Because they have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I do not know where they have put Him.”
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.
“Woman, why are you
weeping?” Jesus asked. “Whom are you seeking?” Thinking He was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried Him off, tell me where you have put Him, and I will get Him.”

dine. And none of the disciples
durst ask him, Who art
thou? knowing that it was the Lord.
“Come, have
breakfast,” Jesus said to them. None of the disciples
dared to ask Him, “Who are You?” They knew it was the Lord.
So when they had
dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of
Jonas, lovest
thou me more than these? He saith unto him,
Yea, Lord;
thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.
When they had finished eating, Jesus asked Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love Me more than these?” “
Yes, Lord,” he answered, “You know I love You.” Jesus replied, “Feed My lambs.”
He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of
Jonas, lovest
thou me? He saith unto him,

Yes, Lord,” he answered, “You know I love You.” Jesus told him, “

thou me? Peter was
grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest
thou me? And he said unto him, Lord,

thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
Jesus asked a third time, “Simon son of John, do you love Me?” Peter was deeply
hurt that Jesus had asked him a third time, “Do you love Me?” “Lord, You know all things,” he replied. “You know I love You.” Jesus said to him, “Feed My sheep.
Verily,
verily, I say unto thee, When
thou wast young,
thou girdedst
thyself, and walkedst
whither thou wouldest: but when
thou shalt be old,
thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall
gird thee, and carry thee
whither thou wouldest not.
Truly, truly, I tell you, when you were young, you dressed
yourself and walked where you wanted; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.”
Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he
tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow
thou me.

Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men,
shew whether of these two

thou wilt not leave my soul in
hell, neither
wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as
though by our own power or

stare at us as if by our own power or
godliness we had made this man walk?

glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the presence of
Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.

glorified His servant Jesus. You handed Him over and rejected Him before

thousand.
But many who heard the message believed, and the number of men grew to about five thousand.

accord. “Sovereign Lord,” they said, “You made the heaven and the earth and the sea and everything in them.

anointed.
Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast
thou conceived this thing in thine heart?
thou hast not
lied unto men, but unto God.

disposal? How could you conceive such a deed in your heart? You have not
lied to men, but to God!”

persecute Me?”

thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom
thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to
kick against the pricks.
“Who are You, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are
persecuting,” He replied.

trembling and
astonished said, Lord, what

thou must do.
“Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.”

So

So I sent for you immediately, and you were kind enough to come. Now then, we are all here in the presence of God to
listen to everything the Lord has
instructed you to tell us.”
But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God hath
cleansed, that call not
thou common.
But the voice spoke from heaven a second time, ‘Do not call anything impure that God has made clean.’

Psalm: ‘You are My Son;

fetch us out.

though we are Roman citizens. And now do they want to send us away secretly? Absolutely not! Let them come themselves and
escort us out!”
And they took him, and brought him unto
Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new doctrine,
whereof thou speakest, is?
So they took Paul and brought him to the
Areopagus, where they asked him, “May we know what this new teaching is that you are presenting?

And when they heard it, they
glorified the Lord, and said unto him,
Thou seest, brother, how many
thousands of Jews there are which believe; and they are all
zealous of the law:

thousands of Jews have believed, and all of them are
zealous for the law.
And they are informed of thee, that
thou teachest all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to
forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to

purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may
shave their heads: and all may know that those things,
whereof they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but that
thou thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law.

shaved. Then
everyone will know that there is no truth to these rumors about you, but that you also live in obedience to the law.
And as Paul was to be led into the castle, he said unto the chief captain, May I speak unto thee? Who said, Canst thou speak Greek?

Art not
thou that Egyptian, which before these days madest an

Assassins’ into the wilderness?”

thou persecutest.
And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.
Then he said, ‘The God of our fathers has appointed you to know His will, and to see the Righteous One, and to hear His voice.
For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard.
You will be His witness to
everyone of what you have seen and heard.
And now why tarriest
thou? arise, and be
baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

baptized, and wash your sins away, calling on His name.’
When the
centurion heard that, he went and told the chief captain, saying, Take
heed what
thou doest: for this man is a Roman.
On hearing this, the
centurion went and reported it to the commander. “What are you going to do?” he said. “This man is a Roman citizen.”
Then the chief captain came, and said unto him, Tell me, art
thou a Roman? He said,
Yea.
The commander went to Paul and asked, “Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?” “
Yes,” he answered.
Then said Paul unto him, God shall
smite thee,
thou whited wall: for sittest
thou to judge me after the law, and commandest me to be
smitten contrary to the law?
Then Paul said to him, “God will strike you, you
whitewashed wall! You sit here to judge me according to the law, yet you
yourself violate the law by commanding that I be struck.”
And they that stood by said, Revilest thou God’s high priest?
But those standing nearby said, “How
dare you
insult the high priest of God!”
Then said Paul, I
wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written,
Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people.
“Brothers,” Paul replied, “I was not aware that he was the high priest, for it is written: ‘Do not speak evil about the ruler of your people.’”
And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good
cheer, Paul: for as
thou hast
testified of me in Jerusalem, so must
thou bear witness also at Rome.
The following night the Lord stood near Paul and said, “Take courage! As you have
testified about Me in Jerusalem, so also you must
testify in Rome.”
Now therefore ye with the council
signify to the chief captain that he bring him down unto you to
morrow, as
though ye would
enquire something more perfectly concerning him: and we, or ever he come near, are ready to kill him.
Now then, you and the
Sanhedrin petition the commander to bring him down to you on the pretext of examining his case more carefully. We are ready to kill him on the way.”
Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went with him aside privately, and asked him, What is that thou hast to tell me?
The commander took the young man by the hand, drew him aside, and asked, “What do you need to tell me?”
And he said, The Jews have agreed to desire thee that
thou wouldest bring down Paul to
morrow into the council, as
though they would
enquire somewhat of him more perfectly.
He answered, “The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul to the
Sanhedrin tomorrow on the pretext of acquiring more information about him.
But do not thou yield unto them: for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, which have bound themselves with an oath, that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him: and now are they ready, looking for a promise from thee.
Do not let them
persuade you, because more than forty men are waiting to
ambush him. They have bound themselves with an oath not to eat or drink until they have killed him; they are ready now,
awaiting your consent.”
So the chief captain then let the young man depart, and charged him, See thou tell no man that thou hast shewed these things to me.
So the commander dismissed the young man and
instructed him, “Do not tell
anyone that you have reported this to me.”
Notwithstanding, that I be not further
tedious unto thee, I pray thee that
thou wouldest hear us of thy
clemency a few words.
But in order not to burden you any further, I
beg your
indulgence to hear us briefly.
Then Paul, after that the governor had
beckoned unto him to speak, answered,
Forasmuch as I know that
thou hast been of many years a judge unto this nation, I do the more
cheerfully answer for myself:

response: “Knowing that you have been a judge over this nation for many years, I
gladly make my
defense.
Because that thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem for to worship.
You can
verify for
yourself that no more than twelve days ago I went up to Jerusalem to worship.
But
Festus, willing to do the Jews a pleasure, answered Paul, and said,
Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me?
But
Festus, wishing to do the Jews a favor, said to Paul, “Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem to stand trial before me on these charges?”
Then said Paul, I stand at Caesar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou very well knowest.
Paul replied, “I am standing before the judgment seat of Caesar, where I ought to be tried. I have done nothing wrong to the Jews, as you
yourself know very well.
Then
Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast
thou appealed unto Caesar? unto Caesar shalt
thou go.
Then
Festus conferred with his council and replied, “You have appealed to Caesar. To Caesar you will go!”
Then
Agrippa said unto
Festus, I would also hear the man myself. To
morrow, said he,
thou shalt hear him.
Then
Agrippa said unto Paul,
Thou art permitted to speak for
thyself. Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and answered for himself:
Agrippa said to Paul, “You have permission to speak for
yourself.” Then Paul stretched out his hand and began his
defense:
Why should it be
thought a thing
incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?
Why would any of you consider it
incredible that God raises the dead?
I
verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of
Nazareth.
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.
We all fell to the ground, and I heard a voice say to me in Hebrew, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you
persecute Me? It is hard for you to
kick against the goads.’
And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
‘Who are You, Lord?’ I asked. ‘I am Jesus, whom you are
persecuting,’ the Lord replied.
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;
‘But get up and stand on your feet. For I have appeared to you to
appoint you as a servant and as a witness of what you have seen from Me and what I will show you.
And as he thus spake for himself,
Festus said with a loud voice, Paul,
thou art beside
thyself; much learning
doth make thee
mad.
