Acts 23 (KJV)

And

the

high priest

Ananias

commanded

them that

stood by

him

to smite

him

on the

mouth.

Then

said

Paul

unto

him,

God

shall

smite

thee,

thou whited

wall:

for

sittest

thou

to judge

after

the

law,

and

commandest

to be smitten

contrary to the law?

And

they that

stood by

said,

Revilest thou

God's high

priest?

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.

And

there arose

a great

cry:

and

the

scribes

that were of the

Pharisees'

part

arose,

and strove,

saying,

We find

evil

this

man:

but

a spirit

an angel

hath spoken

to him,

let us not fight against

God.

And

the

night

following

the

Lord

stood

by him,

and said,

Be of good cheer,

Paul:

for

thou hast testified

Jerusalem,

must

thou

bear witness

also

Rome.

And

they were

than forty

which

had made

this

conspiracy.

And they

came

to the chief

priests

and

elders,

and said,

We have bound

ourselves

under a great curse,

that we will eat

nothing

until

we have slain

Paul.

And when

Paul's

sister's

son

heard

of their lying in

wait,

he went

and

entered

into

the

castle,

and told

Paul.

Then

Paul

called

one

of the

centurions

unto

him, and said,

Bring

this

young

man

unto

the

chief captain:

for

he hath

a certain thing

to tell

him.

Then

the chief

captain

took

him

by the

hand,

and

went

with him aside

privately,

and asked

him, What

that

thou hast

to tell

me?

But

do not

thou

yield

unto them:

for

there lie in wait

for him

them

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.

the chief

captain

then let

the young

man

depart,

and charged

him, See thou tell

no man

that

thou hast shewed

these things

me.

And

provide

them beasts,

that

they may set

Paul

on,

and bring

him

safe

unto

Felix

the

governor.

And he wrote

a letter

after

this

manner:

Claudius

Lysias

unto the most

excellent

governor

Felix

sendeth greeting.

This

man was

taken

the

Jews,

and

should

have been killed

them:

then came I

with

army,

and rescued

him,

having understood

that

he was

a Roman.

Whom

I perceived

to be accused

questions

of their

law,

but

to have

nothing

laid to his charge

worthy

of death

of bonds.

And

when it was told

how

that

the

Jews

laid wait

for

the

man,

I sent

straightway

thee,

and gave commandment

to his

accusers

also

to say

before

thee

what

they had against

him.

Farewell.

Then

the

soldiers,

it was commanded

them,

took

Paul,

and brought

him by

night

Antipatris.

the

morrow

they left

the

horsemen

to go

with

him,

and returned

the

castle:

I will hear

thee,

said he,

when

thine

accusers are

also

come.

And

he commanded

him

to be kept

ὁ δὲ ἀρχιερεὺς Ἁνανίας ἐπέταξεν τοῖς παρεστῶσιν αὐτῷ τύπτειν αὐτοῦ τὸ στόμα

τότε ὁ Παῦλος πρὸς αὐτὸν εἶπεν Τύπτειν σε μέλλει ὁ θεός τοῖχε κεκονιαμένε· καὶ σὺ κάθῃ κρίνων με κατὰ τὸν νόμον καὶ παρανομῶν κελεύεις με τύπτεσθαι

οἱ δὲ παρεστῶτες εἶπον, Τὸν ἀρχιερέα τοῦ θεοῦ λοιδορεῖς

Γνοὺς δὲ ὁ Παῦλος ὅτι τὸ ἓν μέρος ἐστὶν Σαδδουκαίων τὸ δὲ ἕτερον Φαρισαίων ἔκραξεν ἐν τῷ συνεδρίῳ Ἄνδρες ἀδελφοί ἐγὼ Φαρισαῖός εἰμι υἱὸς Φαρισαίου· περὶ ἐλπίδος καὶ ἀναστάσεως νεκρῶν ἐγὼ κρίνομαι

τοῦτο δὲ αὐτοῦ λαλήσαντος, ἐγένετο στάσις τῶν Φαρισαίων καὶ τῶν Σαδδουκαίων καὶ ἐσχίσθη τὸ πλῆθος

Σαδδουκαῖοι μὲν γὰρ λέγουσιν μὴ εἶναι ἀνάστασιν μηδὲ ἄγγελον μήτε πνεῦμα Φαρισαῖοι δὲ ὁμολογοῦσιν τὰ ἀμφότερα

ἐγένετο δὲ κραυγὴ μεγάλη καὶ ἀναστάντες οἱ γραμματεῖς τοῦ μέρους τῶν Φαρισαίων διεμάχοντο λέγοντες Οὐδὲν κακὸν εὑρίσκομεν ἐν τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ τούτῳ· εἰ δὲ πνεῦμα ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ ἢ ἄγγελος μὴ θεομαχωμεν

Πολλῆς δὲ γενομένης στάσεως εὐλαβηθεὶς ὁ χιλίαρχος μὴ διασπασθῇ ὁ Παῦλος ὑπ' αὐτῶν ἐκέλευσεν τὸ στράτευμα καταβὰν ἁρπάσαι αὐτὸν ἐκ μέσου αὐτῶν ἄγειν τε εἰς τὴν παρεμβολήν

Τῇ δὲ ἐπιούσῃ νυκτὶ ἐπιστὰς αὐτῷ ὁ κύριος εἶπεν Θάρσει Παῦλε· ὡς γὰρ διεμαρτύρω τὰ περὶ ἐμοῦ εἰς Ἰερουσαλὴμ οὕτως σε δεῖ καὶ εἰς Ῥώμην μαρτυρῆσαι

Γενομένης δὲ ἡμέρας ποιήσαντες τινες τῶν Ἰουδαίων συστροφὴν ἀνεθεμάτισαν ἑαυτοὺς λέγοντες μήτε φαγεῖν μήτε πίειν ἕως οὗ ἀποκτείνωσιν τὸν Παῦλον

ἦσαν δὲ πλείους τεσσαράκοντα οἱ ταύτην τὴν συνωμοσίαν πεποιηκότες,

οἵτινες προσελθόντες τοῖς ἀρχιερεῦσιν καὶ τοῖς πρεσβυτέροις εἶπον, Ἀναθέματι ἀνεθεματίσαμεν ἑαυτοὺς μηδενὸς γεύσασθαι ἕως οὗ ἀποκτείνωμεν τὸν Παῦλον

νῦν οὖν ὑμεῖς ἐμφανίσατε τῷ χιλιάρχῳ σὺν τῷ συνεδρίῳ ὅπως αὔριον αὐτὸν καταγάγῃ πρὸς ὑμᾶς ὡς μέλλοντας διαγινώσκειν ἀκριβέστερον τὰ περὶ αὐτοῦ· ἡμεῖς δὲ πρὸ τοῦ ἐγγίσαι αὐτὸν ἕτοιμοί ἐσμεν τοῦ ἀνελεῖν αὐτόν

Ἀκούσας δὲ ὁ υἱὸς τῆς ἀδελφῆς Παύλου τό ἔνεδρον παραγενόμενος καὶ εἰσελθὼν εἰς τὴν παρεμβολὴν ἀπήγγειλεν τῷ Παύλῳ

ὁ μὲν οὖν παραλαβὼν αὐτὸν ἤγαγεν πρὸς τὸν χιλίαρχον καὶ φησίν Ὁ δέσμιος Παῦλος προσκαλεσάμενός με ἠρώτησεν τοῦτον τὸν νεανίαν ἀγαγεῖν πρὸς σέ ἔχοντά τι λαλῆσαί σοι

ἐπιλαβόμενος δὲ τῆς χειρὸς αὐτοῦ ὁ χιλίαρχος καὶ ἀναχωρήσας κατ' ἰδίαν ἐπυνθάνετο Τί ἐστιν ὃ ἔχεις ἀπαγγεῖλαί μοι

εἶπεν δὲ ὅτι Οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι συνέθεντο τοῦ ἐρωτῆσαί σε ὅπως αὔριον εἰς τὸ συνέδριον καταγάγῃς τὸν Παῦλον ὡς μέλλοντές τι ἀκριβέστερον πυνθάνεσθαι περὶ αὐτοῦ

σὺ οὖν μὴ πεισθῇς αὐτοῖς· ἐνεδρεύουσιν γὰρ αὐτὸν ἐξ αὐτῶν ἄνδρες πλείους τεσσαράκοντα οἵτινες ἀνεθεμάτισαν ἑαυτοὺς μήτε φαγεῖν μήτε πιεῖν ἕως οὗ ἀνέλωσιν αὐτόν καὶ νῦν ἕτοιμοι εἰσιν προσδεχόμενοι τὴν ἀπὸ σοῦ ἐπαγγελίαν

ὁ μὲν οὖν χιλίαρχος ἀπέλυσεν τὸν νεανίαν, παραγγείλας μηδενὶ ἐκλαλῆσαι ὅτι ταῦτα ἐνεφάνισας πρός με

Καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος δύο τινὰς τῶν ἑκατονταρχῶν εἶπεν Ἑτοιμάσατε στρατιώτας διακοσίους ὅπως πορευθῶσιν ἕως Καισαρείας καὶ ἱππεῖς ἑβδομήκοντα καὶ δεξιολάβους διακοσίους ἀπὸ τρίτης ὥρας τῆς νυκτός

κτήνη τε παραστῆσαι ἵνα ἐπιβιβάσαντες τὸν Παῦλον διασώσωσιν πρὸς Φήλικα τὸν ἡγεμόνα

γράψας ἐπιστολὴν περιέχουσαν τὸν τύπον τοῦτον·

Κλαύδιος Λυσίας τῷ κρατίστῳ ἡγεμόνι Φήλικι χαίρειν

Τὸν ἄνδρα τοῦτον συλληφθέντα ὑπὸ τῶν Ἰουδαίων καὶ μέλλοντα ἀναιρεῖσθαι ὑπ' αὐτῶν ἐπιστὰς σὺν τῷ στρατεύματι ἐξειλόμην αὐτὸν, μαθὼν ὅτι Ῥωμαῖός ἐστιν

βουλόμενός δὲ γνῶναι τὴν αἰτίαν δι' ἣν ἐνεκάλουν αὐτῷ κατήγαγον αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ συνέδριον αὐτῶν

ὃν εὗρον ἐγκαλούμενον περὶ ζητημάτων τοῦ νόμου αὐτῶν μηδὲν δὲ ἄξιον θανάτου ἢ δεσμῶν ἔγκλημα ἔχοντα

μηνυθείσης δέ μοι ἐπιβουλῆς εἰς τὸν ἄνδρα μελλείν ἔσεσθαι ὑπὸ τῶν Ἰουδαίων, ἐξαυτῆς ἔπεμψα πρὸς σέ παραγγείλας καὶ τοῖς κατηγόροις λέγειν τὰ πρὸς αὐτὸν ἐπὶ σοῦ Ἔῤῥωσο

Οἱ μὲν οὖν στρατιῶται κατὰ τὸ διατεταγμένον αὐτοῖς ἀναλαβόντες τὸν Παῦλον ἤγαγον διὰ τὴς νυκτὸς εἰς τὴν Ἀντιπατρίδα

τῇ δὲ ἐπαύριον ἐάσαντες τοὺς ἱππεῖς πορεύεσθαι σὺν αὐτῷ ὑπέστρεψαν εἰς τὴν παρεμβολήν·

οἵτινες εἰσελθόντες εἰς τὴν Καισάρειαν καὶ ἀναδόντες τὴν ἐπιστολὴν τῷ ἡγεμόνι παρέστησαν καὶ τὸν Παῦλον αὐτῷ

ἀναγνοὺς δὲ ὁ ἡγεμὼν, καὶ ἐπερωτήσας ἐκ ποίας ἐπαρχίας ἐστὶν καὶ πυθόμενος ὅτι ἀπὸ Κιλικίας

Διακούσομαί σου ἔφη ὅταν καὶ οἱ κατήγοροί σου παραγένωνται· ἐκέλευσεν τε αὐτόν ἐν τῷ πραιτωρίῳ τοῦ Ἡρῴδου φυλάσσεσθαι
