Then
Agrippa
said
unto
Paul
,
Thou
art
permitted
to
speak
for
thyself

Then
Paul
stretched
forth
the
hand

himself
:
strkjv@Acts:26:2
@ I
think
myself
happy
,
king
Agrippa
, because I
shall
answer for
myself
this
day
before
thee
touching
all the
things
whereof
I am
accused
of
the
Jews
:
strkjv@Acts:26:3
@
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
.
strkjv@Acts:26:4
@
My
manner
of
life
from
my
youth
,
which
was
at
the
first
among
mine
own
nation
at
Jerusalem
,
know
all
the
Jews
;
strkjv@Acts:26:5
@ Which
knew
me
from the
beginning
,
if
they
would
testify
,
that
after
the most
straitest
sect
of
our
religion
I
lived
a
Pharisee
.
strkjv@Acts:26:6
@
And
now
I
stand
and am
judged
for
the
hope
of the
promise
made
of
God
unto
our
fathers
:
strkjv@Acts:26:7
@
Unto
which
promise
our
twelve
tribes
,
instantly
serving
God
day
and
night
,
hope
to
come
.
For
which
hopes
sake

king
Agrippa

accused
of
the
Jews

strkjv@Acts:26:8
@
Why
should it be thought a
thing
incredible
with
you
,
that
God
should
raise
the
dead
?
strkjv@Acts:26:9
@
I
verily
thought
with
myself
, that I
ought
to
do
many
things
contrary
to
the
name
of
Jesus
of
Nazareth
.
strkjv@Acts:26:10
@ Which
thing
I
also
did
in
Jerusalem
:
and
many
of the
saints
did
I
shut
up
in
prison
, having
received
authority
from
the chief
priests
;
and
when
they
were put to
death
, I
gave
my
voice
against them.
strkjv@Acts:26:11
@
And
I
punished
them
oft
in
every
synagogue
, and
compelled
them to
blaspheme
;
and
being
exceedingly
mad
against
them
, I
persecuted
them
even
unto
strange
cities
.
strkjv@Acts:26:12
@
Whereupon
as I
went
to
Damascus
with
authority
and
commission
from
the chief
priests
,
strkjv@Acts:26:13
@ At
midday
, O
king
, I
saw
in
the
way
a
light
from
heaven
,
above
the
brightness
of the
sun
, shining round
about
me
and
them which
journeyed
with
me
.
strkjv@Acts:26:14
@
And
when
we
were
all
fallen
to
the
earth

heard
a
voice
speaking
unto
me
,
and
saying
in the
Hebrew
tongue
,
Saul
,
Saul
,
why
persecutest
thou
me
? it is
hard
for
thee
to
kick
against
the
pricks
.
strkjv@Acts:26:15
@
And
I
said
,
Who
art
thou
,
Lord
?

said

I
am
Jesus
whom
thou
persecutest

strkjv@Acts:26:16
@
But
rise
,
and
stand
upon
thy
feet

for
I have
appeared
unto
thee
for
this
purpose
, to
make
thee
a
minister
and
a
witness
both
of these things
which
thou hast
seen
,
and
of those things in the
which
I will
appear
unto
thee

@
Delivering
thee
from
the
people
,
and
from the
Gentiles

unto
whom
now
I
send
thee

strkjv@Acts:26:18
@ To
open
their
eyes

turn
them
from
darkness
to
light

and
from the
power
of
Satan
unto
God
, that
they
may
receive
forgiveness
of
sins
,
and
inheritance
among
them which are
sanctified
by
faith
that is
in
me

strkjv@Acts:26:19
@
Whereupon
, O
king
Agrippa
, I
was
not
disobedient
unto the
heavenly
vision
:
strkjv@Acts:26:20
@
But
shewed
first
unto them
of
Damascus
,
and
at
Jerusalem
,
and
throughout
all
the
coasts
of
Judaea
,
and
then to the
Gentiles
, that they should
repent
and
turn
to
God
, and
do
works
meet
for
repentance
.
strkjv@Acts:26:21
@
For
these
causes
the
Jews
caught
me
in
the
temple
, and went
about
to
kill
me.
strkjv@Acts:26:22
@
Having
therefore
obtained
help
of
God
, I
continue
unto
this
day
,
witnessing
both
to
small
and
great
,
saying
none other
things
than
those
which
the
prophets
and
Moses
did
say
should
come
:
strkjv@Acts:26:23
@
That
Christ
should
suffer
, and
that
he should be the
first
that should
rise
from
the
dead
, and
should
shew
light
unto the
people
,
and
to the
Gentiles
.
strkjv@Acts:26:24
@
And
as
he
thus
spake for
himself
,
Festus
said
with a
loud
voice
,
Paul
, thou art beside
thyself
;
much
learning
doth
make
thee
mad
.
strkjv@Acts:26:25
@
But
he
said
, I
am
not
mad
, most
noble
Festus
;
but
speak
forth
the
words
of
truth
and
soberness
.
strkjv@Acts:26:26
@
For
the
king
knoweth
of
these
things,
before
whom
also
I
speak
freely
:
for
I am
persuaded
that
none
of these
things
are
hidden
from
him
;
for
this
thing
was
not
done
in
a
corner
