Acts 24:2-27

24:2

And
<1161>

when he
<846>

was called forth
<2564> (5685)_,

Tertullus
<5061>

began
<756> (5662)

to accuse
<2723> (5721)

[him], saying
<3004> (5723)_,

Seeing that by
<1223>

thee
<4675>

we enjoy
<5177> (5723)

great
<4183>

quietness
<1515>_,

and
<2532>

that very worthy deeds
<2735>

are done
<1096> (5740)

unto this
<5129>

nation
<1484>

by
<1223>

thy
<4674>

providence
<4307>_,

24:3

<5037>@ We accept
<588> (5736)

[it] always
<3839>_,

and
<2532>

in all places
<3837>_,

most noble
<2903>

Felix
<5344>_,

with
<3326>

all
<3956>

thankfulness
<2169>_.

24:4

Notwithstanding
<1161>_,

that
<3363> (0)

I be
<4119> (0)

not
<3363> <1909>

further
<4119>

tedious
<1465> (5725)

unto thee
<4571>_,

I pray
<3870> (5719)

thee
<4571>

that thou wouldest hear
<191> (5658)

us
<2257>

of thy
<4674>

clemency
<1932>

a few words
<4935>_.

24:5

For
<1063>

we have found
<2147> (5631)

this
<5126>

man
<435>

[a] pestilent
<3061>

[fellow], and
<2532>

a mover
<2795> (5723)

of sedition
<4714>

among all
<3956>

the Jews
<2453>

throughout
<2596>

the world
<3625>_,

and
<5037>

a ringleader
<4414>

of the sect
<139>

of the Nazarenes
<3480>_:

24:6

Who
<3739>

also
<2532>

hath gone about
<3985> (5707)

to profane
<953> (5658)

the temple
<2411>_:

<2532>

whom
<3739>

we took
<2902> (5656)_,

and
<2532>

would
<2309> (5656)

have judged
<2919> (5721)

according
<2596>

to our
<2251>

law
<3551>_.

24:7

But
<1161>

the chief captain
<5506>

Lysias
<3079>

came
<3928> (5631)

[upon us], and with
<3326>

great
<4183>

violence
<970>

took [him] away
<520> (5627)

out of
<1537>

our
<2257>

hands
<5495>_,

24:8

Commanding
<2753> (5660)

his
<846>

accusers
<2725>

to come
<2064> (5738)

unto
<1909>

thee
<4571>_:

by examining
<350> (5660)

of
<3844>

whom
<3739>

thyself
<846>

mayest
<1410> (5695)

take knowledge
<1921> (5629)

of
<4012>

all
<3956>

these things
<5130>_,

whereof
<3739>

we
<2249>

accuse
<2723> (5719)

him
<846>_.

24:9

And
<1161>

the Jews
<2453>

also
<2532>

assented
<4934> (5639)_,

saying
<5335> (5723)

that these things
<5023>

were
<2192> (5721)

so
<3779>_.

24:10

Then
<1161>

Paul
<3972>_,

after that the governor
<2232>

had beckoned
<3506> (5660)

unto him
<846>

to speak
<3004> (5721)_,

answered
<611> (5662)_,

Forasmuch as I know
<1987> (5740)

that thou
<4571>

hast been
<5607> (5752)

of
<1537>

many
<4183>

years
<2094>

a judge
<2923>

unto this
<5129>

nation
<1484>_,

I do
<626> (0)

the more cheerfully
<2115>

answer
<626> (5736)

for
<4012>

myself
<1683>_:

24:11

Because that thou
<4675>

mayest
<1410> (5740)

understand
<1097> (5629)_,

that
<3754>

there are
<1526> (5748)

yet but
<2228> <3756>

twelve
<1177>

days
<2250> <4119>

since
<575> <3739>

I
<3427>

went up
<305> (5627)

to
<1722>

Jerusalem
<2419>

for to worship
<4352> (5694)_.

24:12

And
<2532>

they neither
<3777>

found
<2147> (5627)

me
<3165>

in
<1722>

the temple
<2411>

disputing
<1256> (5740)

with
<4314>

any man
<5100>_,

neither
<2228>

raising up
<1999> (0) <4160> (5723)

the people
<3793> <1999>_,

neither
<3777>

in
<1722>

the synagogues
<4864>_,

nor
<3777>

in
<2596>

the city
<4172>_:

24:13

Neither
<3777>

can
<1410> (5736)

they prove
<3936> (5658) <3165>

the things
<4012>

whereof
<3739>

they
<2723> (0)

now
<3568>

accuse
<2723> (5719)

me
<3450>_.

24:14

But
<1161>

this
<5124>

I confess
<3670> (5719)

unto thee
<4671>_,

that
<3754>

after
<2596>

the way
<3598>

which
<3739>

they call
<3004> (5719)

heresy
<139>_,

so
<3779>

worship I
<3000> (5719)

the God
<2316>

of my fathers
<3971>_,

believing
<4100> (5723)

all things
<3956>

which
<3588>

are written
<1125> (5772)

in
<2596>

the law
<3551>

and
<2532>

in
<1722>

the prophets
<4396>_:

24:15

And have
<2192> (5723)

hope
<1680>

toward
<1519>

God
<2316>_,

which
<3739>

they
<3778>

themselves
<846>

also
<2532>

allow
<4327> (5736)_,

that there shall be
<3195> (5721) <1510> (5705)

a resurrection
<386>

of the dead
<3498>_,

both
<5037>

of the just
<1342>

and
<2532>

unjust
<94>_.

24:16

And
<1161>

herein
<1722> <5129>

do I exercise
<778> (5719)

myself
<846>_,

to have
<2192> (5721)

always
<1275>

a conscience
<4893>

void of offence
<677>

toward
<4314>

God
<2316>_,

and
<2532>

[toward] men
<444>_.

24:17

Now
<1161>

after
<1223>

many
<4119>

years
<2094>

I came
<3854> (5633)

to bring
<4160> (5694)

alms
<1654>

to
<1519>

my
<3450>

nation
<1484>_,

and
<2532>

offerings
<4376>_.

24:18

<1161>@ Whereupon
<1722> <3739>

certain
<5100>

Jews
<2453>

from
<575>

Asia
<773>

found
<2147> (5627)

me
<3165>

purified
<48> (5772)

in
<1722>

the temple
<2411>_,

neither
<3756>

with
<3326>

multitude
<3793>_,

nor
<3761>

with
<3326>

tumult
<2351>_.

24:19

Who
<3739>

ought
<1163> (5748) (5625) <1163> (5713)

to have been here
<3918> (5750)

before
<1909>

thee
<4675>_,

and
<2532>

object
<2723> (5721)_,

if
<1536> (0)

they had
<2192> (5722)

ought
<1536>

against
<4314>

me
<3165>_.

24:20

Or else
<2228>

let
<2036> (0)

these
<846>

same
<3778>

[here] say
<2036> (5628)_,

if
<1536> (0)

they have found
<2147> (5627)

any
<1536>

evil doing
<92>

in
<1722>

me
<1698>_,

while I
<3450>

stood
<2476> (5631)

before
<1909>

the council
<4892>_,

24:21

Except
<2228>

it be for
<4012>

this
<5026>

one
<3391>

voice
<5456>_,

that
<3739>

I cried
<2896> (5656)

standing
<2476> (5761)

among
<1722>

them
<846>_,

Touching
<3754> <4012>

the resurrection
<386>

of the dead
<3498>

I
<1473>

am called in question
<2919> (5743)

by
<5259>

you
<5216>

this day
<4594>_.

24:22

And
<1161>

when Felix
<5344>

heard
<191> (5660)

these things
<5023>_,

having more perfect
<197>

knowledge
<1492> (5761)

of
<4012>

[that] way
<3598>_,

he deferred
<306> (5639)

them
<846>_,

and said
<2036> (5631)_,

When
<3752>

Lysias
<3079>

the chief captain
<5506>

shall come down
<2597> (5632)_,

I will know the uttermost
<1231> (5695)

of your
<5209>

matter
<2596>_.

24:23

And
<5037>

he commanded
<1299> (5671)

a centurion
<1543>

to keep
<5083> (5745)

Paul
<3972>_,

and
<5037>

to let [him] have
<2192> (5721)

liberty
<425>_,

and
<2532>

that he should forbid
<2967> (5721)

none
<3367>

of his
<846>

acquaintance
<2398>

to minister
<5256> (5721)

or
<2228>

come
<4334> (5738)

unto him
<846>_.

24:24

And
<1161>

after
<3326>

certain
<5100>

days
<2250>_,

when Felix
<5344>

came
<3854> (5637)

with
<4862>

his
<846>

wife
<1135>

Drusilla
<1409>_,

which was
<5607> (5752)

a Jewess
<2453>_,

he sent for
<3343> (5662)

Paul
<3972>_,

and
<2532>

heard
<191> (5656)

him
<846>

concerning
<4012>

the faith
<4102>

in
<1519>

Christ
<5547>_.

24:25

And
<1161>

as he
<846>

reasoned
<1256> (5740)

of
<4012>

righteousness
<1343>_,

temperance
<2532> <1466>_,

and
<2532>

judgment
<2917>

to come
<3195> (5723) <1510> (5705)_,

Felix
<5344>

trembled
<1096> (5637) <1719>_,

and answered
<611> (5662)_,

Go thy way
<4198> (5737)

for this time
<3568>_;

when
<1161>

I have
<2192> (5723) <3335> (5631)

a convenient season
<2540>_,

I will call for
<3333> (5698)

thee
<4571>_.

24:26

He hoped
<1679> (5723)

also
<260> <1161> <2532>

that
<3754>

money
<5536>

should have been given
<1325> (5701)

him
<846>

of
<5259>

Paul
<3972>_,

that
<3704>

he might loose
<3089> (5661)

him
<846>_:

wherefore
<1352>

he sent for
<3343> (5740)

him
<846>

the oftener
<4437>_,

and
<2532>

communed with
<3656> (5707)

him
<846>_.

24:27

But
<1161>

after
<4137> (5685)

two years
<1333>

Porcius
<4201>

Festus
<5347>

came
<2983> (5627)

into Felix
<5344>_'

room
<1240>_:

and
<5037>

Felix
<5344>_,

willing
<2309> (5723)

to shew
<2698> (5641)

the Jews
<2453>

a pleasure
<5485>_,

left
<2641> (5627)

Paul
<3972>

bound
<1210> (5772)_.
