Ἀπεκρίθη δέ ὁ Παῦλος νεύσαντος αὐτῷ τοῦ ἡγεμόνος λέγειν Ἐκ πολλῶν ἐτῶν ὄντα σε κριτὴν τῷ ἔθνει τούτῳ ἐπιστάμενος εὐθύμοτερον τὰ περὶ ἐμαυτοῦ ἀπολογοῦμαι
Then after that Paul, 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 for answer myself:
ὃς καὶ τὸ ἱερὸν ἐπείρασεν βεβηλῶσαι ὃν καὶ ἐκρατήσαμεν καὶ κατά τόν ἡμέτερον νόμον ἠθελήσαμεν κρίνειν
Who also hath gone about to profane the temple: whom we took, and would have judged according to our law.
μάλιστα γνώστην ὄντα σε πάντων τῶν κατὰ Ἰουδαίους ἐθῶν τε καὶ ζητημάτων διὸ δέομαι σου μακροθύμως ἀκοῦσαί μου
Especially because I know thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.
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
And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, which was a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ.
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;
περὶ οὗ ἀσφαλές τι γράψαι τῷ κυρίῳ οὐκ ἔχω διὸ προήγαγον αὐτὸν ἐφ' ὑμῶν καὶ μάλιστα ἐπὶ σοῦ βασιλεῦ Ἀγρίππα ὅπως τῆς ἀνακρίσεως γενομένης σχῶ τί γράψαι
Of whom I have no certain thing to write unto my lord. Wherefore I have brought forth him before you, and specially before thee, O king Agrippa, that, after examination had, I might have somewhat to write.
ἐρωτώντων δὲ αὐτῶν ἐπὶ πλείονα χρόνον μεῖναι παρ' αὐτοῖς οὐκ ἐπένευσεν
When they desired him to tarry longer time with them, he consented not;
ὁμολογῶ δὲ τοῦτό σοι ὅτι κατὰ τὴν ὁδὸν ἣν λέγουσιν αἵρεσιν οὕτως λατρεύω τῷ πατρῴῳ θεῷ πιστεύων πάσιν τοῖς κατὰ τὸν νόμον καὶ τοῖς προφήταις γεγραμμένοις
