Acts 25:6-17
6And when he had tarried among them not moreG4183 than eightG3638 or tenG1176 daysG2250, he wentG2597 downG2597 unto Cæsarea; and on the morrow he satG2523 on the judgment-seat, and commandedG2753 PaulG3972 to be broughtG71. 7And when he was comeG2597, the JewsG2453 that had comeG2597 down from JerusalemG2414 stood round about him, bringing against him manyG4183 and grievous charges which they could not prove; 8while PaulG3972 said in his defence, Neither against the lawG3551 of the JewsG2453, nor against the templeG2411, nor against Cæsar, have I sinnedG264 at all. 9But FestusG5347, desiringG2309 to gain favorG5485 with the JewsG2453, answeredG611 PaulG3972 and saidG3004, Wilt thou goG305 up to JerusalemG2414, and there be judgedG2919 of these thingsG3778 before me? 10But PaulG3972 saidG3004, I amG1510 standingG2476 before Cæsar’s judgment-seat, whereG3757 I oughtG1163 to beG1510 judgedG2919: to the JewsG2453 have I done no wrongG91, as thou alsoG2532 very well knowest. 11If then I amG1510 a wrong-doer, and have committed anythingG5100 worthyG514 of deathG2288, I refuseG3868 not to dieG599; but if noneG3762 of those thingsG3778 isG1510 true whereof these accuseG2723 me, no manG3778 can give me up unto them. I appealG1941 unto Cæsar. 12ThenG5119 FestusG5347, when he had conferred with the council, answeredG611, Thou hast appealedG1941 unto Cæsar: unto Cæsar shalt thou goG4198.
13NowG1161 when certainG5100 daysG2250 were passed, AgrippaG67 the kingG935 and BerniceG959 arrived at Cæsarea, and saluted FestusG5347. 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.
