ἐὰν δὲ μὴ ἀκούσῃ παράλαβε μετὰ σοῦ ἔτι ἕνα ἢ δύο ἵνα ἐπὶ στόματος δύο μαρτύρων ἢ τριῶν σταθῇ πᾶν ῥῆμα·
But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
לֹֽא-יָקוּם עֵד אֶחָד בְּאִישׁ לְכָל-עָוֹן וּלְכָל-חַטָּאת בְּכָל-חֵטְא אֲשֶׁר יֶֽחֱטָא עַל-פִּי׀ שְׁנֵי עֵדִים אוֹ עַל-פִּי שְׁלֹשָֽׁה-עֵדִים יָקוּם דָּבָֽר׃
One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.
Τρίτον τοῦτο ἔρχομαι πρὸς ὑμᾶς· ἐπὶ στόματος δύο μαρτύρων καὶ τριῶν σταθήσεται πᾶν ῥῆμα
This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every be word established.
εἴ τίς ἐστιν ἀνέγκλητος μιᾶς γυναικὸς ἀνήρ τέκνα ἔχων πιστά μὴ ἐν κατηγορίᾳ ἀσωτίας ἢ ἀνυπότακτα
If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.
עַל-פִּי׀ שְׁנַיִם עֵדִים אוֹ שְׁלֹשָׁה עֵדִים יוּמַת הַמֵּת לֹא יוּמַת עַל-פִּי עֵד אֶחָֽד׃
At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.
ἀθετήσας τις νόμον Μωσέως χωρὶς οἰκτιρμῶν ἐπὶ δυσὶν ἢ τρισὶν μάρτυσιν ἀποθνῄσκει·
He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
καὶ ἐν τῷ νόμῳ δὲ τῷ ὑμετέρῳ γέγραπται ὅτι δύο ἀνθρώπων ἡ μαρτυρία ἀληθής ἐστιν
It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
πρὸς οὓς ἀπεκρίθην ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν ἔθος Ῥωμαίοις χαρίζεσθαί τινα ἄνθρωπον εἰς ἀπώλειαν πρὶν ἢ ὁ κατηγορούμενος κατὰ πρόσωπον ἔχοι τοὺς κατηγόρους τόπον τε ἀπολογίας λάβοι περὶ τοῦ ἐγκλήματος
To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any man to die, before that he which is accused have the accusers face face, to and have licence to answer for himself concerning the crime laid against him.
וְדָֽרְשׁוּ הַשֹּֽׁפְטִים הֵיטֵב וְהִנֵּה עֵֽד-שֶׁקֶר הָעֵד שֶׁקֶר עָנָה בְאָחִֽיו׃
And the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and hath testified falsely against his brother;
ἐξῆλθεν οὖν ὁ Πιλᾶτος πρὸς αὐτοὺς καὶ εἶπεν Τίνα κατηγορίαν φέρετε κατὰ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου τούτου
Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man?
κληθέντος δὲ αὐτοῦ ἤρξατο κατηγορεῖν ὁ Τέρτυλλος λέγων Πολλῆς εἰρήνης τυγχάνοντες διὰ σοῦ καὶ κατορθωμάτων γινομένων τῷ ἔθνει τούτῳ διὰ τῆς σῆς προνοίας
And when he was called forth, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, Seeing that by thee we enjoy great quietness, and that very worthy deeds are done unto this nation by thy providence,
ὃ καὶ ἐποίησαν ἀποστείλαντες πρὸς τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους διὰ χειρὸς Βαρναβᾶ καὶ Σαύλου
Which also they did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.
