Acts 25:1-11

1NowG3767 when FestusG5347 had comeG1910 into the provinceG1885, afterG3326 threeG5140 daysG2250 he went upG305 fromG575 CaesareaG2542 toG1519 JerusalemG2414.

2ThenG1161 the high priestG749 andG2532 the chiefG4413 of the JewsG2453 informedG1718 himG846 againstG2596 PaulG3972, andG2532 besoughtG3870 himG846,

3And desiredG154 favourG5485 againstG2596 himG846, thatG3704 he would send forG3343 himG846 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, layingG4160 waitG1747 inG2596 the wayG3598 to killG337 himG846.

4ButG3303G3767 FestusG5347 answeredG611, that PaulG3972 should be keptG5083 atG1722 CaesareaG2542, andG1161 that he himselfG1438 wouldG3195 departG1607G1722 shortlyG5034 there .

5Let them thereforeG3767, saidG5346 he, who amongG1722 youG5213 are ableG1415, go down withG4782 me, and accuseG2723 thisG846 manG435, ifG1536 there isG2076 any wickednessG1536 inG1722 himG5129.

6AndG1161 when he had tarriedG1304 amongG1722 themG846 moreG4119 thanG2228 tenG1176 daysG2250, he went downG2597 toG1519 CaesareaG2542; and the next dayG1887 sittingG2523 onG1909 the judgment seatG968 commandedG2753 PaulG3972 to be broughtG71.1

7AndG1161 when heG846 had comeG3854, the JewsG2453 who came downG2597 fromG575 JerusalemG2414 stood aroundG4026, andG2532 laidG5342 manyG4183 and grievousG926 complaintsG157 againstG2596 PaulG3972, whichG3739 they couldG2480 notG3756 proveG584.

8While he answeredG626 for himselfG846, NeitherG3754G3777 againstG1519 the lawG3551 of the JewsG2453, neitherG3777 againstG1519 the templeG2411, nor yetG3777 againstG1519 CaesarG2541, have I committedG264 any offenceG5100.

9ButG1161 FestusG5347, willingG2309 to doG2698 the JewsG2453 a favourG5485, answeredG611 PaulG3972, and saidG2036, Wilt thouG2309 goG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2414, and thereG1563 be judgedG2919 concerningG4012 these thingsG5130 beforeG1909 meG1700?

10ThenG1161 saidG2036 PaulG3972, I standG1510G2476 atG1909 Caesar’sG2541 judgment seatG968, whereG3757 IG3165 oughtG1163 to be judgedG2919: to the JewsG2453 have I doneG91 noG3762 wrongG91, asG5613G2532 thouG4771 very wellG2566 knowestG1921.

11ForG1063 ifG1487G3303 I am an offenderG91, orG2532 have committedG4238 any thingG5100 worthyG514 of deathG2288, I refuseG3868 notG3756 to dieG599: butG1161 ifG1487 there isG2076 noneG3762 of these thingsG3739 of which theseG3778 accuseG2723 meG3450, no manG3762 mayG1410 deliverG5483 meG3165 to themG846. I appeal toG1941 CaesarG2541.
