Acts 25:6-17
6And having remained among them not moreG4183 than eightG3638 or tenG1176 daysG2250, he wentG2597 downG2597 to CaesareaG2542; and on the nextG1887 dayG2250, having satG2523 downG2597 on the judgment-seat, commandedG2753 PaulG3972 to be broughtG71.
7And when he was comeG2597, the JewsG2453 who were comeG2597 down from JerusalemG2414 stood round, bringing manyG4183 and grievous charges which they were not ableG2480 to prove:
8PaulG3972 answering for himself, Neither against the lawG3551 of the JewsG2453, nor against the templeG2411, nor against CaesarG2541, have I offended [in] anythingG5100.
9But FestusG5347, desirous of obliging the JewsG2453, to acquire their favour, answeringG611 PaulG3972, saidG3004, Art thou willingG2309 to goG305 up to JerusalemG2414, there to be judgedG2919 before me concerningG4012 these thingsG3778?
10But PaulG3972 saidG3004, I amG1510 standingG2476 before the judgment-seat of CaesarG2541, whereG3757 I oughtG1163 to beG1510 judgedG2919. To the JewsG2453 have I done no wrongG91, as thou alsoG2532 very well knowest.
11If then I have done any wrongG91 and committed anythingG5100 worthyG514 of deathG2288, I do not deprecate dyingG599; but if there isG1510 nothing of those thingsG3778 of which they accuseG2723 me, no manG3778 can give me up to them. I appealG1941 to CaesarG2541.
12ThenG5119 FestusG5347, having conferred with the council, answeredG611, Thou hast appealedG1941 to CaesarG2541. To CaesarG2541 shalt thou goG4198.
13And when certainG5100 daysG2250 had elapsed, AgrippaG67 the kingG935 and BerniceG959 arrived at CaesareaG2542 to salute FestusG5347.
14And whenG5613 they had spent manyG4183 daysG2250 there, FestusG5347 laid before the kingG935 the matters relating to PaulG3972, sayingG3004, There isG1510 a certainG5100 manG435 leftG2641 prisonerG1198 by FelixG5344,
15concerningG4012 whom, when I was at JerusalemG2414, the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the eldersG4245 of the JewsG2453 laid informations, requiring judgment against him:
16to whom I answeredG611, It isG1510 not [the] customG1485 of the RomansG4514 to give up any manG444 before that the accusedG2723 have the accusersG2725 faceG4383 to faceG4383, and he have got opportunityG5117 of defence touching the charge.
17When thereforeG3767 they had comeG4905 togetherG4905 hereG1759, without putting it off, I satG2523 the nextG1836 dayG1836 on the judgment-seat and commandedG2753 the manG435 to be broughtG71:
