Acts 23:25-30

25And he wrote a letter having this form:

26“Claudius Lysias, to the 1most excellent governor Felix, 2greetings.

27When this man was arrested by the Jews and was about to be slain by them, 3I came up to them with the troops and rescued him, 4having learned that he was a Roman. 28And 5wanting to ascertain the charge for which they were accusing him, I 6brought him down to their 78Council; 29and I found him to be accused over 9questions about their Law, but 10under 11no accusation deserving death or 12imprisonment.

30When I was 13informed that there would be 14a plot against the man, I sent him to you at once, also instructing 15his accusers to 16bring charges against him before you.”
