Actes 25

Paul jugé devant Festus

Nō te taenga mai o Petuha ki te kāwanatanga, ka toru ngā rā, ka haere atu ia i Hiharia ki Hiruhārama. ²Nā, ka kōrero te tohunga nui me ngā rangatira o ngā Hūrai ki a ia mō Pāora, ka tohe ki a ia, ³kia whakaaetia tā rātou mōna, kia tīkina atu ia ki Hiruhārama, he whanga hoki tō rātou mōna kia whakamatea ki te ara.

⁴Otirā, ka whakahokia e Petuha, kei Hiharia a Pāora e pupuri ana, ā, tērā e hohoro tōna haere ki reira. ⁵I mea anō ia, “Me haere tahi anō i ahau ki raro ngā mea ō koutou e whai mana ana, ki te whakawā i taua tangata, ki te mea he kino tōna.” ⁶Ā, ka noho ia i a rātou mō ngā rā e waru, ngahuru rānei, nā, ka haere ki Hiharia; ao ake te rā ka noho ki te nohoanga whakawā, ā, ka mea kia ārahina mai a Pāora.

⁷Ā, nō tōna taenga atu, e tū ana tērā ngā Hūrai i haere mai i Hiruhārama, he maha, he nui ngā hē i whakapāngia e rātou ki a Pāora; heoi kīhai i ū tā rātou. ⁸Ā, ka utua e Pāora, “Kāhore rawa ōku hara ki te ture a ngā Hūrai, kāhore hoki ki te temepara, kāhore anō ki a Hīhā.” ⁹Heoi, ka mea a Petuha ki a Pāora, i tōna hiahia kia paingia e ngā Hūrai, “E pai ana rānei koe kia haere ki Hiruhārama, ki reira whakawākia ai mō ēnei mea ki tōku aroaro?”

¹⁰Anō rā ko Pāora, “E tū ana ahau ki te nohoanga whakawā o Hīhā, hei reira tonu ahau whakawākia ai; kāhore ōku hē ki ngā Hūrai, kua tino kitea nā hoki e koe. ¹¹Me he hē tōku, kua meinga rānei e ahau tētahi mea e tika ai te mate, e kore ahau e kino kia mate; tēnā ko tēnei, he teka ngā mea e whakapāngia nei e rātou ki ahau, e kore e āhei kia tukua ahau e tētahi ki a rātou. He karanga tēnei nāku ki a Hīhā.” ¹²Nā, ka kōrerorero a Petuha ki te rūnanga, ā, ka mea, “Kua karanga koe ki a Hīhā; nā me haere koe ki a Hīhā.”

Festus consulte Agrippa

¹³Ā muri iho i ētahi rā, ka tae atu a Kīngi Akaripa, rāua ko Pereniki ki Hiharia, ā, ka oha ki a Petuha. ¹⁴Ā, ka pō maha rāua e noho ana i reira, ka kōrerotia e Petuha ki te kīngi te take mō Pāora, ka mea, “Tēnei tētahi tangata i waiho iho e Pirika e here ana. ¹⁵Ā, i ahau i Hiruhārama, ka kōrerotia mai ia ki ahau e ngā tohunga nui, e ngā kaumātua o ngā Hūrai, ka tono rātou kia whakawākia ia.

¹⁶“Nā, ko tāku whakahokinga atu ki a rātou, ‘Ehara i te ritenga nā ngā tāngata o Rōma kia tukua he tangata kia mate i te mea kīanō i tūtataki noa te tangata e whakawākia ana ki ngā kaiwhakapae, i whai wāhi rānei ki te whakahoki kupu ki te kupu whakawā mōna.’ ¹⁷Nō reira, i tō rātou minenga mai ki konei, kīhai ahau i whakaroa; ao ake te rā ka noho ahau ki te nohoanga whakawā, ka mea kia ārahina mai taua tangata. ¹⁸Ā, i te tūranga o ngā kaiwhakapae, kīhai tētahi hē o āku i whakaaro ai i kōrerotia e rātou mōna.

¹⁹Heoi, he kupu tautohetohe nō tā rātou karakia tā rātou i mea ai ki a ia, ko tētahi Īhu anō i mate, e kīia ana hoki e Pāora kei te ora. ²⁰Heoi, pōhewa noa iho ahau ki taua tautohe, ka mea hoki me kore ia e pai kia haere ki Hiruhārama, ki reira whakawākia ai mō aua mea. ²¹Nō te karangatanga a Pāora kia waiho ia kia whakarangona tāna e te emepara, ka whakahaua e ahau kia puritia ia, kia tukua rā anō ia e ahau ki a Hīhā.” ²²Ka mea a Akaripa ki a Petuha, “E hiahia ana anō ahau kia rongo i taua tangata.” Ka mea ia, “Ko āpōpō koe rongo ai ki a ia.”

²³Heoi, i te aonga ake, ka tae atu a Akaripa rāua ko Pereniki, me ngā whakapaipai maha, ā, tomo ana ki te whare whakarongo, rātou ko ngā rangatira mano, ko ngā tāngata nunui o te pā, ā, ka whakahaua e Petuha, ka mauria mai a Pāora. ²⁴Nā, ka mea a Petuha, “E Kīngi Akaripa, e ngā tāngata katoa hoki e noho nei tātou, ka kite koutou i tēnei tangata, i tohe mai ai ki ahau te huihui katoa o ngā Hūrai i Hiruhārama, i konei anō hoki, i karanga ai, ehara rawa i te tika kia waiho ia kia ora ana. ²⁵Otirā, i kite ahau, kāhore āna mahi e tika ai te mate; ā, i te mea nāna anō i karanga ki te emepara, ka mea ahau kia ungā atu ia.

²⁶Kāhore ia āku tino mea e tuhituhi atu ai ahau mōna ki tōku ariki. Koia ahau ka ārahi mai nei i a ia ki a koutou, ki a koe rawa anō, e Kīngi Akaripa, kia whai mea ai ahau hei tuhituhinga atu, ua mutu te uiui. ²⁷Ki tāku hoki he mea hē kia ungā atu he herehere, ā, kia kaua hoki e kōrerotia te mea i whakawākia ai ia.”
