Acts 25:9-12

9But Festus, 1wanting to do the Jews a favor, replied to Paul and said, “2Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and 3stand trial before me on these charges?” 10But Paul said, “I am standing before Caesar’s 4tribunal, where I ought to be tried. I have done nothing wrong to the Jews, as you also very well know. 11If, therefore, I am in the wrong and have committed something deserving death, I am not trying to avoid execution; but if there is nothing to the accusations which these men are bringing against me, no one can hand me over to them. I 5appeal to Caesar.” 12Then when Festus had conferred with 6his council, he answered, “You have appealed to Caesar; to Caesar you shall go.”
