Acts 25:14-21

14And as they tarried there manyG4183 daysG2250, FestusG5347 laid Paul’s case before the kingG935, sayingG3004, There isG1510 a certainG5100 manG435 leftG2641 a prisonerG1198 by FelixG5344; 15about whom, when I was at JerusalemG2414, the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the eldersG4245 of the JewsG2453 informed me, askingG154 for sentence against him. 16To whom I answeredG611, that it isG1510 not the customG1485 of the RomansG4514 to give up any manG444, before that the accusedG2723 have the accusersG2725 faceG4383 to faceG4383, and have had opportunityG5117 to make his defence concerningG4012 the matter laid against him. 17When thereforeG3767 they were comeG4905 togetherG4905 hereG1759, I madeG4160 no delay, but on the nextG1836 dayG1836 satG2523 on the judgment-seat, and commandedG2753 the manG435 to be broughtG71. 18ConcerningG4012 whom, when the accusersG2725 stoodG2476 up, they broughtG5342 no chargeG156 of such evilG4190 thingsG3739 as I supposed; 19but had certainG5100 questionsG2213 against him of their ownG2398 religion, and of oneG5100 JesusG2424, who was dead, whom PaulG3972 affirmed to be aliveG2198. 20And I, being perplexedG639 how to inquire concerningG4012 these thingsG3778, asked whether he would goG4198 to JerusalemG2414 and there be judgedG2919 of these matters. 21But when PaulG3972 had appealedG1941 to be keptG5083 for the decision of the emperorG4575, I commandedG2753 him to be keptG5083 till I should send him to Cæsar.
