Acts 24:2-8

2And he having been called, Tertullus began to accuse, saying, Seeing we enjoy great peace through thee, and that excellent measures are executed for this nation by thy forethought,

3we receive [it] always and everywhere, most excellent Felix, with all thankfulness.

4But that I may not too much intrude on thy time, I beseech thee to hear us briefly in thy kindness.

5For finding this man a pest, and moving sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a leader of the sect of the Nazaraeans;

6who also attempted to profane the temple; whom we also had seized, [and would have judged according to our law;

7but Lysias, the chiliarch, coming up, took [him] away with great force out of our hands,

8having commanded his accusers to come to thee;] of whom thou canst thyself, in examining [him], know the certainty of all these things of which we accuse him.
