Acts 25:13-17

13Now when several days had elapsed, King Agrippa and Bernice arrived at 1Caesarea 2and paid their respects to Festus.

14While they were spending many days there, Festus laid Paul’s case before the king, saying, “There is a man who was 3left as a prisoner by Felix;

15and when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews 4brought charges against him, asking for a sentence of condemnation against him.

16I 5answered them that it is not the custom of the Romans to hand over any man before 6the accused meets his accusers face to face and has an opportunity to make his defense against the charges.

17So after they had assembled here, I did not delay, but on the next day took my seat on 7the tribunal and ordered the man to be brought before me.
