Acts 25:23-27

23SoG3767, on the nextG1887 dayG1887 when 1AgrippaG67 and 2BerniceG959 cameG2064 amidG3326 greatG4183 pompG5325 and enteredG1525 the auditoriumG201, 3accompaniedG4862 by the commandersG5506 and the prominentG1851 menG435 of the cityG4172, at the commandG2753 of FestusG5347, PaulG3972 was broughtG71 before them.

24And FestusG5347 saidG5346, “KingG935 AgrippaG67, and allG3956 you gentlemenG435 presentG4840 with us, you seeG2334 thisG3778 manG3778 aboutG4012 whomG3739 4allG537 the peopleG4128 of the JewsG2453 appealedG1793 to me, bothG5037 in JerusalemG2414 and hereG1759, shoutingG994 that 5he oughtG1163 not to liveG2198 anyG3371 longerG3371.

25But I foundG2638 that he had committedG4238 6nothingG3367 deservingG514 deathG2288; and since he himselfG846 7appealedG1941 toG1941 8the EmperorG4575, I decidedG2919 to sendG3992 him.

269Yet, I haveG2192 nothingG3756 definiteG804 aboutG4012 him to writeG1125 to my lordG2962. ThereforeG1352, I have broughtG4254 him beforeG4254 you all and especiallyG3122 beforeG1909 you, KingG935 AgrippaG67, soG3704 thatG3704 after the investigationG351 has takenG1096 placeG1096, I may haveG2192 somethingG5101 to writeG1125.

27For it seemsG1380 absurdG249 to me in sendingG3992 a prisonerG1198, not to indicateG4591 the chargesG156 againstG2596 him asG2532 wellG2532.”
