25And he wroteG1125 a letterG1992 havingG2192 thisG3778 formG5179:

26“ClaudiusG2804 LysiasG3079, to the 1mostG2903 excellentG2903 governorG2232 FelixG5344, 2greetingsG5463.

27When thisG3778 manG435 was arrestedG4815 by the JewsG2453 and was aboutG3195 to be slainG337 by them, 3I cameG2186 up to them with the troopsG4753 and rescuedG1807 him, 4having learnedG3129 that he was a RomanG4514. 28And 5wantingG1014 to ascertainG1921 the chargeG156 for whichG3739 they were accusingG1458 him, I 6broughtG2609 him downG2609 to their 78CouncilG4892; 29and I foundG2147 him to be accusedG1458 overG4012 9questionsG2213 aboutG4012 their LawG3551, but 10underG2192 11noG3367 accusationG1462 deservingG514 deathG2288 orG2228 12imprisonmentG1199.

30When I was 13informedG3377 that there would be 14a plotG1917 againstG1519 the manG435, I sentG3992 him to you at onceG1824, alsoG2532 instructingG3853 15his accusersG2725 to 16bringG3004 chargesG3004 againstG4314 him beforeG1909 you.”
