Acts 24:5-9

5For we have foundG2147 thisG3778 manG435 a real pestG3061 and a fellow who stirsG2795 up dissensionG4714 among allG3956 the JewsG2453 throughoutG2596 1the worldG3625, and a ringleaderG4414 of the 2sectG139 of the NazarenesG3480. 6And he evenG2532 triedG3985 to 3desecrateG953 the templeG2413; and 4thenG2532 we arrestedG2902 him. [5We wantedG2309 to judgeG2919 him accordingG2596 to our own LawG3551. 7But LysiasG3079 the commanderG5506 cameG3928 alongG3928, and with muchG4183 violenceG970 tookG520 him out of our handsG5495, 8orderingG2753 his accusersG2725 to comeG2064 beforeG1909 you.] By examiningG350 him yourselfG846 concerningG4012 allG3956 theseG3778 matters you will be ableG1410 to ascertainG1921 the things of whichG3739 we accuseG2723 him.” 96The JewsG2453 alsoG2532 joinedG4902 in the attackG4902, assertingG5335 that theseG3778 thingsG3778 were soG3779.
