Деяния 25 | Синодальный перевод

Синодальный перевод

1 Фест, прибыв в область, через три дня отправился из Кесарии в Иерусалим. 2 Тогда первосвященник и знатнейшие из Иудеев явились к нему [с] [жалобою] на Павла и убеждали его, 3 прося, чтобы он сделал милость, вызвал его в Иерусалим; и злоумышляли убить его на дороге. 4 Но Фест отвечал, что Павел содержится в Кесарии под стражею и что он сам скоро отправится туда. 5 Итак, сказал он, которые из вас могут, пусть пойдут со мною, и если есть что–нибудь за этим человеком, пусть обвиняют его. 6 Пробыв же у них не больше восьми или десяти дней, возвратился в Кесарию, и на другой день, сев на судейское место, повелел привести Павла. 7 Когда он явился, стали кругом пришедшие из Иерусалима Иудеи, принося на Павла многие и тяжкие обвинения, которых не могли доказать. 8 Он же в оправдание свое сказал: я не сделал никакого преступления ни против закона Иудейского, ни против храма, ни против кесаря. 9 Фест, желая сделать угождение Иудеям, сказал в ответ Павлу: хочешь ли идти в Иерусалим, чтобы я там судил тебя в этом? 10 Павел сказал: я стою перед судом кесаревым, где мне и следует быть судиму. Иудеев я ничем не обидел, как и ты хорошо знаешь. 11 Ибо, если я неправ и сделал что–нибудь, достойное смерти, то не отрекаюсь умереть; а если ничего того нет, в чем сии обвиняют меня, то никто не может выдать меня им. Требую суда кесарева. 12 Тогда Фест, поговорив с советом, отвечал: ты потребовал суда кесарева, к кесарю и отправишься. 13 Через несколько дней царь Агриппа и Вереника прибыли в Кесарию поздравить Феста. 14 И как они провели там много дней, то Фест предложил царю дело Павлово, говоря: [здесь] есть человек, оставленный Феликсом в узах, 15 на которого, в бытность мою в Иерусалиме, [с жалобою] явились первосвященники и старейшины Иудейские, требуя осуждения его. 16 Я отвечал им, что у Римлян нет обыкновения выдавать какого–нибудь человека на смерть, прежде нежели обвиняемый будет иметь обвинителей налицо и получит свободу защищаться против обвинения. 17 Когда же они пришли сюда, то, без всякого отлагательства, на другой же день сел я на судейское место и повелел привести того человека. 18 Обступив его, обвинители не представили ни одного из обвинений, какие я предполагал; 19 но они имели некоторые споры с ним об их Богопочитании и о каком–то Иисусе умершем, о Котором Павел утверждал, что Он жив. 20 Затрудняясь в решении этого вопроса, я сказал: хочет ли он идти в Иерусалим и там быть судимым в этом? 21 Но как Павел потребовал, чтобы он оставлен был на рассмотрение Августово, то я велел содержать его под стражею до тех пор, как пошлю его к кесарю. 22 Агриппа же сказал Фесту: хотел бы и я послушать этого человека. Завтра же, отвечал тот, услышишь его. 23 На другой день, когда Агриппа и Вереника пришли с великою пышностью и вошли в судебную палату с тысяченачальниками и знатнейшими гражданами, по приказанию Феста приведен был Павел. 24 И сказал Фест: царь Агриппа и все присутствующие с нами мужи! вы видите того, против которого все множество Иудеев приступали ко мне в Иерусалиме и здесь и кричали, что ему не должно более жить. 25 Но я нашел, что он не сделал ничего, достойного смерти; и как он сам потребовал суда у Августа, то я решился послать его [к нему]. 26 Я не имею ничего верного написать о нем государю; посему привел его пред вас, и особенно пред тебя, царь Агриппа, дабы, по рассмотрении, было мне что написать. 27 Ибо, мне кажется, нерассудительно послать узника и не показать обвинений на него.

Paul’s trial in front of Festus

1 Three days after Festus arrived, he went up from Caesarea to Jerusalem. 2 There the chief priests and the Jewish leaders came to Festus. They brought their charges against Paul. 3 They tried very hard to get Festus to have Paul taken to Jerusalem. They asked for this as a favour. They were planning to hide and attack Paul along the way. They wanted to kill him. 4 Festus answered, ‘Paul is being held at Caesarea. Soon I’ll be going there myself. 5 Let some of your leaders come with me. If the man has done anything wrong, they can bring charges against him there.’ 6 Festus spent eight or ten days in Jerusalem with them. Then he went down to Caesarea. The next day he called the court together. He ordered Paul to be brought to him. 7 When Paul arrived, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him. They brought many strong charges against him. But they couldn’t prove that these charges were true. 8 Then Paul spoke up for himself. He said, ‘I’ve done nothing wrong against the law of the Jews or against the temple. I’ve done nothing wrong against Caesar.’ 9 But Festus wanted to do the Jews a favour. So he said to Paul, ‘Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem? Are you willing to go on trial there? Are you willing to face these charges in my court?’ 10 Paul answered, ‘I’m already standing in Caesar’s court. This is where I should go on trial. I haven’t done anything wrong to the Jews. You yourself know that very well. 11 If I am guilty of anything worthy of death, I’m willing to die. But the charges brought against me by these Jews are not true. No one has the right to hand me over to them. I make my appeal to Caesar!’ 12 Festus talked it over with the members of his court. Then he said, ‘You have made an appeal to Caesar. To Caesar you will go!’

Festus talks with King Agrippa

13 A few days later King Agrippa and Bernice arrived in Caesarea. They came to pay a visit to Festus. 14 They were spending many days there. So Festus talked with the king about Paul’s case. He said, ‘There’s a man here that Felix left as a prisoner. 15 When I went to Jerusalem, the Jewish chief priests and the elders brought charges against the man. They wanted him to be found guilty. 16 ‘I told them that this is not the way Romans do things. We don’t judge people before they have faced those bringing charges against them. They must have a chance to argue against the charges for themselves. 17 When the Jewish leaders came back with me, I didn’t waste any time. I called the court together the next day. I ordered the man to be brought in. 18 Those bringing charges against him got up to speak. But they didn’t charge him with any of the crimes I had expected. 19 Instead, they argued with him about their own beliefs. They didn’t agree about a man named Jesus. They said Jesus was dead, but Paul claimed Jesus was alive. 20 I had no idea how to look into such matters. So I asked Paul if he would be willing to go to Jerusalem. There he could be tried on these charges. 21 But Paul made an appeal to have the Emperor decide his case. So I ordered him to be held until I could send him to Caesar.’ 22 Then Agrippa said to Festus, ‘I would like to hear this man myself.’ Festus replied, ‘Tomorrow you will hear him.’

Paul in front of Agrippa

23 The next day Agrippa and Bernice arrived. They were treated like very important people. They entered the courtroom. The most important military officers and the leading men of the city came with them. When Festus gave the command, Paul was brought in. 24 Festus said, ‘King Agrippa, and everyone else here, take a good look at this man! A large number of Jews have come to me about him. They came to me in Jerusalem and also here in Caesarea. They keep shouting that he shouldn’t live any longer. 25 I have found that he hasn’t done anything worthy of death. But he made his appeal to the Emperor. So I decided to send him to Rome. 26 I don’t have anything certain to write about him to His Majesty. So I have brought him here today. Now all of you will be able to hear him. King Agrippa, it will also be very good for you to hear him. As a result of this hearing, I will have something to write. 27 It doesn’t make sense to send a prisoner on to Rome without listing the charges against him.’

Paul Appeals to Caesar

1 Now three days after Festus had arrived in the province, he went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea. (Деян 23:34) 2 And the chief priests and the principal men of the Jews laid out their case against Paul, and they urged him, (Деян 25:15) 3 asking as a favor against Paul^[1] that he summon him to Jerusalem—because they were planning an ambush to kill him on the way. (Деян 9:24) 4 Festus replied that Paul was being kept at Caesarea and that he himself intended to go there shortly. 5 “So,” said he, “let the men of authority among you go down with me, and if there is anything wrong about the man, let them bring charges against him.” 6 After he stayed among them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea. And the next day he took his seat on the tribunal and ordered Paul to be brought. (Мф 27:19; Деян 25:10; Деян 25:17) 7 When he had arrived, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing many and serious charges against him that they could not prove. (Деян 24:13) 8 Paul argued in his defense, “Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I committed any offense.” (Ин 7:19; Ин 19:7; Ин 19:12; Деян 6:13; Деян 24:12; Деян 28:17)

Ин 7:19Ин 19:7Ин 19:12Деян 6:13Деян 24:12Деян 28:17

9 But Festus, wishing to do the Jews a favor, said to Paul, “Do you wish to go up to Jerusalem and there be tried on these charges before me?” (Деян 24:27) 10 But Paul said, “I am standing before Caesar’s tribunal, where I ought to be tried. To the Jews I have done no wrong, as you yourself know very well. (Деян 25:6; Деян 25:17) 11 If then I am a wrongdoer and have committed anything for which I deserve to die, I do not seek to escape death. But if there is nothing to their charges against me, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar.” (Деян 26:32; Деян 28:19) 12 Then Festus, when he had conferred with his council, answered, “To Caesar you have appealed; to Caesar you shall go.”

Paul Before Agrippa and Bernice

13 Now when some days had passed, Agrippa the king and Bernice arrived at Caesarea and greeted Festus. 14 And as they stayed there many days, Festus laid Paul’s case before the king, saying, “There is a man left prisoner by Felix, (Деян 24:27) 15 and when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews laid out their case against him, asking for a sentence of condemnation against him. (Деян 25:2) 16 I answered them that it was not the custom of the Romans to give up anyone before the accused met the accusers face to face and had opportunity to make his defense concerning the charge laid against him. (Ин 7:51; Деян 23:30; Деян 25:4) 17 So when they came together here, I made no delay, but on the next day took my seat on the tribunal and ordered the man to be brought. (Деян 25:6; Деян 25:7; Деян 25:10; Деян 25:24)

Деян 25:6Деян 25:7Деян 25:10Деян 25:24

18 When the accusers stood up, they brought no charge in his case of such evils as I supposed. 19 Rather they had certain points of dispute with him about their own religion and about a certain Jesus, who was dead, but whom Paul asserted to be alive. (Деян 17:18; Деян 18:15; Деян 23:29) 20 Being at a loss how to investigate these questions, I asked whether he wanted to go to Jerusalem and be tried there regarding them. (Деян 25:9) 21 But when Paul had appealed to be kept in custody for the decision of the emperor, I ordered him to be held until I could send him to Caesar.” (Деян 25:11; Деян 25:25) 22 Then Agrippa said to Festus, “I would like to hear the man myself.” “Tomorrow,” said he, “you will hear him.” (Деян 9:15) 23 So on the next day Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp, and they entered the audience hall with the military tribunes and the prominent men of the city. Then, at the command of Festus, Paul was brought in. (Деян 25:13; Деян 26:30) 24 And Festus said, “King Agrippa and all who are present with us, you see this man about whom the whole Jewish people petitioned me, both in Jerusalem and here, shouting that he ought not to live any longer. (Деян 22:22; Деян 25:2; Деян 25:7) 25 But I found that he had done nothing deserving death. And as he himself appealed to the emperor, I decided to go ahead and send him. (Деян 23:29; Деян 25:11; Деян 25:21) 26 But I have nothing definite to write to my lord about him. Therefore I have brought him before you all, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that, after we have examined him, I may have something to write. 27 For it seems to me unreasonable, in sending a prisoner, not to indicate the charges against him.”
