Acts 23:1 | Then Paul, fixing a steady gaze on the Sanhedrin, said, "Brethren, it is with a perfectly clear conscience that I have discharged my duties before God up to this day." | And Paul, fixing his eyes on the council, said, Brethren, I have walked in all good conscience with God unto this day. | And Paul having earnestly beheld the sanhedrim, said, `Men, brethren, I in all good conscience have lived to God unto this day;` |
Acts 23:2 | On hearing this the High Priest Ananias ordered those who were standing near Paul to strike him on the mouth. | But the high priest Ananias ordered those standing by him to smite his mouth. | and the chief priest Ananias commanded those standing by him to smite him on the mouth, |
Acts 23:3 | "Before long," exclaimed Paul, "God will strike you, you white-washed wall! Are you sitting there to judge me in accordance with the Law, and do you yourself actually break the Law by ordering me to be struck?" | Then Paul said to him, God will smite thee, whited wall. And *thou*, dost thou sit judging me according to the law, and breaking the law commandest me to be smitten? | then Paul said unto him, `God is about to smite thee, thou whitewashed wall, and thou thou dost sit judging me according to the law, and, violating law, dost order me to be smitten!` |

Acts 23:5 | "I did not know, brethren," replied Paul, "that he was the High Priest; for it is written, `Thou shalt not speak evil of a ruler of Thy people.'" | And Paul said, I was not conscious, brethren, that he was high priest; for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evilly of the ruler of thy people. | and Paul said, `I did not know, brethren, that he is chief priest: for it hath been written, Of the ruler of thy people thou shalt not speak evil;` |
Acts 23:6 | Noticing, however, that the Sanhedrin consisted partly of Sadducees and partly of Pharisees, he called out loudly among them, "Brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of Pharisees. It is because of my hope of a resurrection of the dead that I am on my trial." | But Paul, knowing that the one part [of them] were of the Sadducees and the other of the Pharisees, cried out in the council, Brethren, *I* am a Pharisee, son of Pharisees: *I* am judged concerning the hope and resurrection of [the] dead. | and Paul having known that the one part are Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, cried out in the sanhedrim, `Men, brethren, I am a Pharisee son of a Pharisee concerning hope and rising again of dead men I am judged.` |
Acts 23:7 | These words of his caused an angry dispute between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the assembly took different sides. | And when he had spoken this, there was a tumult of the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the multitude was divided. | And he having spoken this, there came a dissension of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees, and the crowd was divided, |
Acts 23:8 | For the Sadducees maintain that there is no resurrection, and neither angel nor spirit; but the Pharisees acknowledge the existence of both. | For Sadducees say there is no resurrection, nor angel, nor spirit; but Pharisees confess both of them. | for Sadducees, indeed, say there is no rising again, nor messenger, nor spirit, but Pharisees confess both. |
Acts 23:9 | So there arose a great uproar; and some of the Scribes belonging to the sect of the Pharisees sprang to their feet and fiercely contended, saying, "We find no harm in the man. What if a spirit has spoken to him, or an angel !" | And there was a great clamour, and the scribes of the Pharisees' part rising up contended, saying, We find nothing evil in this man; and if a spirit has spoken to him, or an angel ... | And there came a great cry, and the scribes of the Pharisees` part having arisen, were striving, saying, `No evil do we find in this man; and if a spirit spake to him, or a messenger, we may not fight against God;` |

Acts 23:11 | The following night the Lord came and stood at Paul's side, and said, "Be of good courage, for as you have borne faithful witness about me in Jerusalem, so you must also bear witness in Rome." | But the following night the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good courage; for as thou hast testified the things concerning me at Jerusalem, so thou must bear witness at Rome also. | And on the following night, the Lord having stood by him, said, `Take courage, Paul, for as thou didst fully testify the things concerning me at Jerusalem, so it behoveth thee also at Rome to testify.` |
Acts 23:12 | Now, when daylight came, the Jews formed a conspiracy and solemnly swore not to eat or drink till they had killed Paul. | And when it was day, the Jews, having banded together, put themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they should kill Paul. | And day having come, certain of the Jews having made a concourse, did anathematize themselves, saying neither to eat nor to drink till they may kill Paul; |

Acts 23:19 | Then the Tribune, taking him by the arm, withdrew out of the hearing of others and asked him, "What have you to tell me?" | And the chiliarch having taken him by the hand, and having gone apart in private, inquired, What is it that thou hast to report to me? | And the chief captain having taken him by the hand, and having withdrawn by themselves, inquired, `What is that which thou hast to tell me?` |
Acts 23:20 | "The Jews," he replied, "have agreed to request you to bring Paul down to the Sanhedrin to-morrow for the purpose of making yourself more accurately acquainted with the case. | And he said, The Jews have agreed together to make a request to thee, that thou mayest bring Paul down to-morrow into the council, as about to inquire something more precise concerning him. | and he said `The Jews agreed to request thee, that to-morrow to the sanhedrim thou mayest bring down Paul, as being about to enquire something more exactly concerning him; |
Acts 23:21 | I beg you not to comply; for more than forty men among them are lying in wait for him, who have solemnly vowed that they will neither eat nor drink till they have assassinated him; and even now they are ready, in anticipation of receiving that promise of you." | Do not thou then be persuaded by them, for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, who have put themselves under a curse neither to eat nor drink till they kill him; and now they are ready waiting the promise from thee. | thou, therefore, mayest thou not yield to them, for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, who did anathematize themselves not to eat nor to drink till they kill him, and now they are ready, waiting for the promise from thee.` |
Acts 23:22 | So the Tribune sent the youth home, cautioning him. "Do not let any one know that you have given me this information," he said. | The chiliarch then dismissed the youth, commanding [him], Utter to no one that thou hast represented these things to me. | The chief captain, then, indeed, let the young man go, having charged [him] to tell no one, `that these things thou didst shew unto me;` |
