New Jerusalem Bible	תנ"ך - מקרא על פי המסורה
¹ 'My brothers, my fathers, listen to what I have to say to you in my defence.'	¹ אֲנָשִׁים אַחִים וְאָבוֹת שִׁמְעוּ־נָא אֶת־דִּבְרֵי הִצְטַדְּקוּתִי אֲלֵיכֶם
² When they realised he was speaking in Hebrew, the silence was even greater than before.	² וַיְהִי כְּשָׁמְעָם כִּי הוּא מְדַבֵּר אֲלֵיהֶם בְּלָשׁוֹן עִבְרִית וַיֶּחֱשׁוּ עוֹד יוֹתֵר
³ 'I am a Jew', Paul said, 'and was born at Tarsus in Cilicia. I was brought up here in this city. It wasunder Gamaliel that I studied and was taught the exact observance of the Law of our ancestors. In fact, I was asful of duty towards God as you al are today.	³ וַיֹּאמַר אִישׁ־יְהוּדִי אָנֹכִי נוֹלָד בְּטַרְסוֹס אֲשֶׁר בְּקִילִיקְיָא וּמְגֻדָּל בָּעִיר הַזֹּאת לְרַגְלֵי גַמְלִיאֵל וּמְלֻמָּד לְפִי דִקְדּוּקֵי תּוֹרַת אֲבוֹתֵינוּ וָאֱהִי מְקַנֵּא לֵאלֹהִים כְּמוֹכֶם כֻּלְּכֶם הַיּוֹם
⁴ I even persecuted this Way to the death and sent women as wel as men to prison in chains	⁴ וָאֲרַדֵּף אֶת־הַדֶּרֶךְ הַזֹּאת עַד־מָוֶת וָאֱהִי אֹסֵר וּמַסְגִּיר לַכֶּלֶא אֲנָשִׁים וְנָשִׁים
⁵ as the high priest and the whole council of elders can testify. I even received letters from them to thebrothers in Damascus, which I took with me when I set off to bring prisoners back from there to Jerusalem forpunishment.	⁵ כַּאֲשֶׁר גַּם־יָעִיד עָלַי הַכֹּהֵן הַגָּדוֹל וְכָל הַזְּקֵנִים אֲשֶׁר מֵהֶם לָקַחְתִּי מִכְתָּבִים וָאֵלֵךְ אֶל־הָאַחִים לְדַמֶּשֶׂק לֶאֱסֹר אַף־אֶת־הַנִּמְצָאִים שָׁמָּה וְלַהֲבִיאָם יְרוּשָׁלַיִם לְמַעַן יִוָּסֵרוּ
⁶ 'It happened that I was on that journey and nearly at Damascus when in the middle of the day a brightlight from heaven suddenly shone round me.	⁶ וַיְהִי אָנֹכִי הֹלֵךְ וְקָרֵב לְדַמֶּשֶׂק כְּעֵת צָהֳרָיִם וּפִתְאֹם נָגַהּ עָלַי מִסָּבִיב אוֹר גָּדוֹל מִן־הַשָּׁמָיִם
⁷ I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?"	⁷ וָאֶפֹּל אָרְצָה וָאֶשְׁמַע קוֹל מִדַּבֵּר אֵלַי שָׁאוּל שָׁאוּל לָמָּה תִרְדְּפֵנִי
⁸ I answered, "Who are you, Lord?" and he said to me, "I am Jesus the Nazarene, whom you arepersecuting."	⁸ וָאַעַן וָאֹמַר מִי אַתָּה אֲדֹנִי וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי אֲנִי יֵשׁוּעַ הַנָּצְרִי אֲשֶׁר אַתָּה רֹדְפוֹ
⁹ The people with me saw the light but did not hear the voice which spoke to me.	⁹ וְהָאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר אִתִּי רָאוּ אֶת־הָאוֹר וַיִּירָאוּ וְאֶת־קוֹל הַמְדַבֵּר אֵלַי לֹא שָׁמֵעוּ
¹⁰ I said, "What am I to do, Lord?" The Lord answered, "Get up and go into Damascus, and there youwil be told what you have been appointed to do."	¹⁰ וָאֹמַר מָה־אֶעֱשֶׂה אֲדֹנִי וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי הָאָדוֹן קוּם לֵךְ אֶל־דַּמֶּשֶׂק וְשָׁם יֵאָמֵר לְךָ אֶת־כֹּל אֲשֶׁר צֻוֵּיתָ לַעֲשׂוֹת
¹¹ Since the light had been so dazzling that I was blind, I got to Damascus only because my companionsled me by the hand.	¹¹ וַאֲנִי לֹא־יָכֹלְתִּי לִרְאוֹת מִפְּנֵי זֹהַר הָאוֹר הַהוּא וְהָאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר אִתִּי הוֹלִיכוּנִי בְיָד וָאָבֹא לְדַמָּשֶׂק
¹² 'Someone called Ananias, a devout fol ower of the Law and highly thought of by al the Jews livingthere,	¹² וְאִישׁ חָסִיד כְּפִי הַתּוֹרָה וּשְׁמוֹ חֲנַנְיָה אֲשֶׁר קָנָה לוֹ שֵׁם טוֹב בְּקֶרֶב כָּל־הַיְּהוּדִים הַיּשְׁבִים שָׁם
¹³ came to see me; he stood beside me and said, "Brother Saul, receive your sight." Instantly my sightcame back and I was able to see him.	¹³ וַיָּבֹא אֵלַי וַיַּעֲמֹד וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי שָׁאוּל אָחִי שׁוּב רְאֵה וּבַשָּׁעָה הַהִיא נִפְקְחוּ עֵינַי וּרְאִיתִיהוּ
¹⁴ Then he said, "The God of our ancestors has chosen you to know his will, to see the Upright One andhear his own voice speaking,	¹⁴ וַיֹּאמַר אֱלֹהֵי אֲבוֹתֵינוּ בָּחַר בְּךָ לָדַעַת אֶת־רְצוֹנוֹ וְלִרְאוֹת אֶת־הַצַּדִּיק וְלִשְׁמֹעַ קוֹל מִפִּיהוּ
¹⁵ because you are to be his witness before all humanity, testifying to what you have seen and heard.	¹⁵ כִּי הָיוֹ תִהְיֶה־לּוֹ לְעֵד אֶל־כָּל־בְּנֵי הָאָדָם עַל־כֹּל אֲשֶׁר רָאִיתָ וְשָׁמָעְתָּ
¹⁶ And now why delay? Hurry and be baptised and wash away your sins, cal ing on his name."	¹⁶ וְעַתָּה לָמָּה תִתְמַהְמֵהַּ קוּם וְהִטָּבֵל וְהִתְרַחֵץ מֵחַטֹּאתֶיךָ בְּקָרְאֲךָ בְּשֵׁם הָאָדוֹן
¹⁷ 'It happened that, when I got back to Jerusalem, and was praying in the Temple, I fell into a trance	¹⁷ וַיְהִי בְּשׁוּבִי אֶל־יְרוּשָׁלַיִם וָאֶתְפַּלֵּל בַּמִּקְדָּשׁ וַתְּהִי עָלַי יַד־יְהוָֹה
¹⁸ and then I saw him. "Hurry," he said, "leave Jerusalem at once; they wil not accept the testimony you are giving about me."	¹⁸ וָאֵרֶא אוֹתוֹ מְדַבֵּר אֵלַי חוּשָׁה צֵא בִמְהֵרָה מִירוּשָׁלָיִם כִּי לֹא־יְקַבְּלוּ אֶת־עֵדוּתְךָ עָלָי
¹⁹ "Lord," I answered, "they know that I used to go from synagogue to synagogue, imprisoning andflogging those who believed in you;	¹⁹ וָאֹמַר הֲלֹא הֵם יוֹדְעִים אֵת אֲשֶׁר־הִשְׁלַכְתִּי אֶל־הַכֶּלֶא וְהִלְקֵיתִי בְּבָתֵּי הַכְּנֵסִיּוֹת אֵת הַמַּאֲמִינִים בָּךְ
²⁰ and that when the blood of your witness Stephen was being shed, I, too, was standing by, in fullagreement with his murderers, and in charge of their clothes."	²⁰ וּבְהִשָּׁפֵךְ דַּם־אִסְטְפָנוֹס עֵדֶךָ אַף־אֲנִי עָמַדְתִּי שָׁם חָפֵץ בַּהֲרֵגָתוֹ וְשׁוֹמֵר אֶת־בִּגְדֵי הֹרְגָיו
²¹ Then he said to me, "Go! I am sending you out to the gentiles far away." '	²¹ וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי לֵךְ כִּי אֲנִי אֶל הַגּוֹיִם עַד־לְמֵרָחוֹק אֲשַׁלְּחֶךָּ
²² So far they had listened to him, but at these words they began to shout, 'Rid the earth of the man! Heis not fit to live!'	²² וַיִּשְׁמְעוּ אֵלָיו עַד־הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה וַיִּשְׂאוּ אֶת־קוֹלָם וַיֹּאמְרוּ הָסִירוּ אִישׁ כָּזֶה מֵעַל הָאֲדָמָה כִּי אֵינֶנּוּ רָאוּי כִּי יִחְיֶה
²³ They were yel ing, waving their cloaks and throwing dust into the air,	²³ וַיְהִי בִּהְיוֹתָם צֹעֲקִים וּמַשְׁלִיכִים אֶת־בִּגְדֵיהֶם מֵעֲלֵיהֶם וְזֹרְקִים עָפָר הַשָּׁמָיְמָה
²⁴ and so the tribune had him brought into the fortress and ordered him to be examined under the lash,to find out the reason for the outcry against him.	²⁴ וַיְצַו שַׂר הָאֶלֶף לְהוֹלִיכוֹ אֶל־הַמְצָד וַיֹּאמֶר לְבָדְקוֹ בְּמַלְקוּת לְמַעַן יֵדַע מַדּוּעַ הֵמָּה כָּכָה צֹעֲקִים עָלָיו
²⁵ But when they had strapped him down Paul said to the centurion on duty, 'Is it legal for you to flog aman who is a Roman citizen and has not been brought to trial?'	²⁵ וַיְהִי כַּאֲשֶׁר אֻסַּר לְהַכּוֹתוֹ בִרְצוּעוֹת וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל־שַׂר הַמֵּאָה הָעֹמֵד עָלָיו הַאַף רִשְׁיוֹן לָכֶם לְהַכּוֹת אִישׁ רוֹמִי בְּלֹא־דִין וּמִשְׁפָּט
²⁶ When he heard this the centurion went and told the tribune; 'Do you realise what you are doing?' hesaid. 'This man is a Roman citizen.'	²⁶ וַיֵּלֶךְ שַׂר הַמֵּאָה כְּשָׁמְעוֹ אֶת־הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה וַיַּגֵּד לְשַׂר הָאֶלֶף לֵאמֹר רְאֵה מַה־תַּעֲשֶׂה כִּי הָאִישׁ הַזֶּה רוֹמִי הוּא
²⁷ So the tribune came and asked him, 'Tel me, are you a Roman citizen?' Paul answered 'Yes'.	²⁷ וַיָּבֹא שַׂר־הָאֶלֶף וַיֹּאמַר אֱמָר־לִי הֲרוֹמִי אַתָּה וַיֹּאמֶר הֵן
²⁸ To this the tribune replied, 'It cost me a large sum to acquire this citizenship.' 'But I was born to it,'said Paul.	²⁸ וַיַּעַן שַׂר הָאֶלֶף אֲנִי בְּכֶסֶף רַב קָנִיתִי לִי מִשְׁפַּט הָאֶזְרָחוּת הַזֹּאת וַיֹּאמֶר פּוֹלוֹס וַאֲנִי אַף־נוֹלַדְתִּי בָהּ
²⁹ Then those who were about to examine him hurriedly withdrew, and the tribune himself was alarmedwhen he realised that he had put a Roman citizen in chains.	²⁹ אָז הִרְפּוּ מִמֶּנּוּ הָאֲנָשִׁים אֲשֶׁר בָּאוּ לְבָדְקוֹ וְגַם־שַׂר הָאֶלֶף יָרֵא בְּדַעְתּוֹ כִּי־רוֹמִי הוּא וְהוּא אָסַר אוֹתוֹ
³⁰ The next day, since he wanted to know for sure what charge the Jews were bringing, he freed Pauland gave orders for a meeting of the chief priests and the entire Sanhedrin; then he brought Paul down and sethim in front of them.	³⁰ וּמִמָּחֳרָת בִּקֵּשׁ לָדַעַת אֶל־נָכוֹן עַל־מֶה שׂטְנִים אוֹתוֹ הַיְּהוּדִים וַיַּתֵּר מוֹסְרוֹתָיו וַיְצַו לְהָבִיא אֶת־רָאשֵׁי הַכֹּהֲנִים וְאֶת־כָּל־הַסַּנְהֶדְרִין וַיּוֹרֶד אֶת־פּוֹלוֹס וַיַּעֲמִידֵהוּ בְּתוֹכָם
