G2532–καί–kai

And the chief priests and the chief men of the Jews made statements against Paul,

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

And when he came, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem came round him, and made all sorts of serious statements against him, which were not supported by the facts.

καὶ kai “and”

And Paul said, I am before the seat of Caesar's authority where it is right for me to be judged: I have done no wrong to the Jews, as you are well able to see.

καὶ kai “also”

If, then, I am a wrongdoer and there is a cause of death in me, I am ready for death: if it is not as they say against me, no man may give me up to them. Let my cause come before Caesar.

καὶ kai “and”

Now when some days had gone by, King Agrippa and Bernice came to Caesarea and went to see Festus.

καὶ kai “and”

Against whom the chief priests and the rulers of the Jews made a statement when I was at Jerusalem, requesting me to give a decision against him.

καὶ kai “and”

But had certain questions against him in connection with their religion, and about one Jesus, now dead, who, Paul said, was living.

καὶ kai “and”

And Agrippa said to Festus, I have a desire to give the man a hearing myself. Tomorrow, he said, you may give him a hearing.

καὶ kai “also”

So on the day after, when Agrippa and Bernice in great glory had come into the public place of hearing, with the chief of the army and the chief men of the town, at the order of Festus, Paul was sent for.

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all those who are present here with us, you see this man, about whom all the Jews have made protests to me, at Jerusalem and in this place, saying that it is not right for him to be living any longer.

Καί Kai “And”καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

But, in my opinion, there is no cause of death in him, and as he himself has made a request to be judged by Caesar, I have said that I would send him.

καὶ kai “and”

But I have no certain account of him to send to Caesar. So I have sent for him to come before you, and specially before you, King Agrippa, so that after the business has been gone into, I may have something to put in writing.

καὶ kai “and”

For it seems to me against reason to send a prisoner without making clear what there is against him.

καὶ kai “also”

The more so, because you are expert in all questions to do with the Jews and their ways: so I make my request to you to give me a hearing to the end.

καὶ kai “also”

And now I am here to be judged because of the hope given by God's word to our fathers;

καὶ kai “And”

For the effecting of which our twelve tribes have been working and waiting night and day with all their hearts. And in connection with this hope I am attacked by the Jews, O king!

καὶ kai “and”

And this I did in Jerusalem: and numbers of the saints I put in prison, having had authority given to me from the chief priests, and when they were put to death, I gave my decision against them.

καὶ kai “also”καὶ kai “and”

And I gave them punishment frequently, in all the Synagogues, forcing them to say things against God; and burning with passion against them, I went after them even into far-away towns.

καὶ kai “And”καὶ kai “even”

Then, when I was journeying to Damascus with the authority and orders of the chief priests,

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

In the middle of the day, on the road I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining round me and those who were journeying with me.

καὶ kai “and”

And when we had all gone down on the earth, a voice came to me, saying in the Hebrew language, Saul, Saul, why are you attacking me so cruelly? It is hard for you to go against the impulse which is driving you.

καὶ kai “and”

But get up on your feet: for I have come to you for this purpose, to make you a servant and a witness of the things in which you have seen me, and of those in which you will see me;

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

And I will keep you safe from the people, and from the Gentiles, to whom I send you,

καὶ kai “and”

To make their eyes open, turning them from the dark to the light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may have forgiveness of sins and a heritage among those who are made holy by faith in me.

καὶ kai “and”καὶ kai “and”

But I went about, first to those in Damascus and Jerusalem, and through all the country of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, preaching a change of heart, so that they, being turned to God, might give, in their works, the fruits of a changed heart.
