21:1
Ἑξῆς δὲ τούτοις ἐπιφέρει μεθ ἕτερα λέγων μείζονι δὲ τούτων πληγῇ Ἰουδαίους ἐκάκωσεν ὁ Αἰγύπτιος ψευδοπροφήτης. παραγενόμενος γὰρ εἰς τὴν χώραν ἄνθρωπος γόης , καὶ προφήτου πίστιν ἐπιθεὶς ἑαυτῷ, περὶ τρισμυρίους μὲν ἀθροίζει τῶν ἠπατημένων , περιαγαγὼν δ αὐτοὺς ἐκ τῆς ἐρημίας εἰς τὸ ἐλαιῶν καλούμενον ὅρος ἐκεῖθεν οἶός τε ἦν εἰς Ἱεροσόλυμα παρελθεῖν βιάζεσθαι, καὶ κρατήσας τῆς τε Ῥωμαϊκῆς φρουρᾶς καὶ τοῦ δήμου τυραννεῖν , χρώμενος τοῖς συνεισπεσοῦσι δορυφόροις.
接著，在敘述其他事情之後，他又說：「那埃及的假先知，用比這些更大的災禍苦害了猶太人。原來這人是個術士，來到那地方，自詡為先知，聚集了約三萬名受他迷惑的人，把他們從曠野領到那名叫橄欖山的地方；他預備從那裡強行闖入耶路撒冷，制伏羅馬的駐軍與百姓，以那同他擁入的人作護衛，行專橫的統治。
Next, after other matters, he adds, saying: "With a greater plague than these the Egyptian false prophet afflicted the Jews. For this man, a sorcerer, having come into the country and laid upon himself the credit of a prophet, gathered about thirty thousand of those he had deceived, and leading them round from the wilderness to the mount called Olivet, he was prepared to force his way thence into Jerusalem, and, overpowering the Roman garrison and the people, to rule as a tyrant, using as bodyguards those who had rushed in with him.
21:2
φθάνει δ αὐτοῦ τὴν ὁρμὴν Φῆλιξ, ὑπαντήσας μετὰ τῶν Ῥωμαϊκῶν ὁπλιτῶν. καὶ πᾶς ὁ δῆμος συνεφήψατο τῆς ἀμύνῃς, ὥστε συμβολῆς γενομένης τὸν μὲν Αἰγύπτιον φυγεῖν μετ ὀλίγων, διαφθαρῆναι δὲ καὶ ζωγρηθῆναι πλείστους τῶν σὺν
但腓力斯搶在他的攻勢之前，率領羅馬的兵士迎擊他；全體百姓也一同協力抵禦，以致一交戰，那埃及人便帶著少數人逃走，而與他同來的人大半被殺或被生擒。」
But Felix forestalled his onset, meeting him with the Roman soldiers; and all the people joined in the defence, so that when battle was joined the Egyptian fled with a few men, while the greater part of those with him were destroyed or taken alive."
21:3
ταῦτα ἐν τῇ δευτέρᾳ τῶν ἱστοριῶν ὁ Ἰώσηπος· ἐπιστῆσαι δὲ ἄξιον τοῖς ἐνταῦθα κατὰ τὸν Αἰγύπτιον δεδηλωμένοις καὶ τοῖς ἐν ταῖς Πράξεσι τῶν ἀποστόλων. ἔνθα τὰ κατὰ Φήλικα πρὸς τοῦ ἐν Ἱεροσολύμοις χιλιάρχου εἴρηται τῷ Παύλῳ , ὁπηνίκα κατεστασίαζεν αὐτοῦ τὸ τῶν Ἰουδαίων πλῆθος· οὐκ ἄρα σὺ εἶ ὁ Αἰγύπτιος ὁ πρὸ τούτων τῶν ἡμερῶν ἀναστατώσας καὶ ἐξαγαγὼν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ τοὺς τετρακισχιλίους ἄνδρας τῶν σικαρίων; ἀλλὰ τὰ μὲν κατὰ Φήλικα τοιαῦτα.
約瑟夫在他《歷史》第二卷中記載了這些事。值得將此處所述關於那埃及人的事，與《使徒行傳》中所記的相對照——那裡記著，在腓力斯的時期，當猶太人羣起鼓譟攻擊保羅時，耶路撒冷的千夫長對保羅說：「你莫非就是從前作亂、帶領四千名兇徒進曠野的那個埃及人嗎？」腓力斯任內的情形便是這樣。
Josephus relates these things in the second book of his Histories. It is worth setting alongside what is here recounted concerning the Egyptian also the account in the Acts of the Apostles, where, in the time of Felix, the tribune at Jerusalem said to Paul, when the multitude of the Jews was rioting against him, "Art thou not then that Egyptian who before these days stirred up a revolt and led out into the wilderness the four thousand men of the Sicarii?" Such, then, was the course of events under Felix.
