Acts 25:2-27

25:2

Then
<1161>

the high priest
<749>

and
<2532>

the chief
<4413>

of the Jews
<2453>

informed
<1718> (5656)

him
<846>

against
<2596>

Paul
<3972>_,

and
<2532>

besought
<3870> (5707)

him
<846>_,

25:3

And desired
<154> (5734)

favour
<5485>

against
<2596>

him
<846>_,

that
<3704>

he would send for
<3343> (5667)

him
<846>

to
<1519>

Jerusalem
<2419>_,

laying
<4160> (5723)

wait
<1747>

in
<2596>

the way
<3598>

to kill
<337> (5629)

him
<846>_.

25:4

But
<3303> <3767>

Festus
<5347>

answered
<611> (5662)_,

that Paul
<3972>

should be kept
<5083> (5745)

at
<1722>

Caesarea
<2542>_,

and
<1161>

that he himself
<1438>

would
<3195> (5721)

depart
<1607> (5738) <1722>

shortly
<5034>

[thither].

25:5

Let them therefore
<3767>_,

said
<5346> (5748)

he, which among
<1722>

you
<5213>

are able
<1415>_,

go down with
<4782> (5631)

[me], and accuse
<2723> (5720)

this
<846>

man
<435>_,

if
<1536> (0)

there be
<2076> (5748)

any wickedness
<1536>

in
<1722>

him
<5129>_.

25:6

And
<1161>

when he had tarried
<1304> (5660)

among
<1722>

them
<846>

more
<4119>

than
<2228>

ten
<1176>

days
<2250>_,

he went down
<2597> (5631)

unto
<1519>

Caesarea
<2542>_;

and the next day
<1887>

sitting
<2523> (5660)

on
<1909>

the judgment seat
<968>

commanded
<2753> (5656)

Paul
<3972>

to be brought
<71> (5683)_.

{more...: or, as some copies read, no more than eight or ten days}

25:7

And
<1161>

when he
<846>

was come
<3854> (5637)_,

the Jews
<2453>

which came down
<2597> (5761)

from
<575>

Jerusalem
<2414>

stood round about
<4026> (5627)_,

and
<2532>

laid
<5342> (5723)

many
<4183>

and grievous
<926>

complaints
<157>

against
<2596>

Paul
<3972>_,

which
<3739>

they could
<2480> (5707)

not
<3756>

prove
<584> (5658)_.

25:8

While he answered
<626> (5740)

for himself
<846>_,

Neither
<3754> <3777>

against
<1519>

the law
<3551>

of the Jews
<2453>_,

neither
<3777>

against
<1519>

the temple
<2411>_,

nor yet
<3777>

against
<1519>

Caesar
<2541>_,

have I offended
<264> (5627)

any thing at all
<5100>_.

25:9

But
<1161>

Festus
<5347>_,

willing
<2309> (5723)

to do
<2698> (5641)

the Jews
<2453>

a pleasure
<5485>_,

answered
<611> (5679)

Paul
<3972>_,

and said
<2036> (5627)_,

Wilt thou
<2309> (5719)

go up
<305> (5631)

to
<1519>

Jerusalem
<2414>_,

and there
<1563>

be judged
<2919> (5745)

of
<4012>

these things
<5130>

before
<1909>

me
<1700>_?

25:10

Then
<1161>

said
<2036> (5627)

Paul
<3972>_,

I stand
<1510> (5748) <2476> (5761)

at
<1909>

Caesar's
<2541>

judgment seat
<968>_,

where
<3757>

I
<3165>

ought
<1163> (5748)

to be judged
<2919> (5745)_:

to the Jews
<2453>

have I done
<91> (0)

no
<3762>

wrong
<91> (5656)_,

as
<5613> <2532>

thou
<4771>

very well
<2566>

knowest
<1921> (5719)_.

25:11

For
<1063>

if
<1487> <3303>

I be an offender
<91> (5719)_,

or
<2532>

have committed
<4238> (5758)

any thing
<5100>

worthy
<514>

of death
<2288>_,

I refuse
<3868> (5736)

not
<3756>

to die
<599> (5629)_:

but
<1161>

if
<1487>

there be
<2076> (5748)

none
<3762>

of these things
<3739>

whereof these
<3778>

accuse
<2723> (5719)

me
<3450>_,

no man
<3762>

may
<1410> (5736)

deliver
<5483> (5664)

me
<3165>

unto them
<846>_.

I appeal unto
<1941> (5731)

Caesar
<2541>_.

25:12

Then
<5119>

Festus
<5347>_,

when he had conferred
<4814> (5660)

with
<3326>

the council
<4824>_,

answered
<611> (5662)_,

Hast thou appealed unto
<1941> (5764)

Caesar
<2541>_?

unto
<1909>

Caesar
<2541>

shalt thou go
<4198> (5695)_.

25:13

And
<1161>

after
<1230> (5637)

certain
<5100>

days
<2250>

king
<935>

Agrippa
<67>

and
<2532>

Bernice
<959>

came
<2658> (5656)

unto
<1519>

Caesarea
<2542>

to salute
<782> (5697)

Festus
<5347>_.

25:14

And
<1161>

when
<5613>

they had been
<1304> (5707)

there
<1563>

many
<4119>

days
<2250>_,

Festus
<5347>

declared
<394> (5639)

Paul's
<3972>

cause
<2596>

unto the king
<935>_,

saying
<3004> (5723)_,

There is
<2076> (5748)

a certain
<5100>

man
<435>

left
<2641> (5772)

in bonds
<1198>

by
<5259>

Felix
<5344>_:

25:15

About
<4012>

whom
<3739>_,

when
<1096> (0)

I
<3450>

was
<1096> (5637)

at
<1519>

Jerusalem
<2414>_,

the chief priests
<749>

and
<2532>

the elders
<4245>

of the Jews
<2453>

informed
<1718> (5656)

[me], desiring
<154> (5734)

[to have] judgment
<1349>

against
<2596>

him
<846>_.

25:16

To
<4314>

whom
<3739>

I answered
<611> (5662)_,

<3754>

It is
<2076> (5748)

not
<3756>

the manner
<1485>

of the Romans
<4514>

to deliver
<5483> (5738)

any
<5100>

man
<444>

to
<1519>

die
<684>_,

before
<4250>

that
<2228>

he which is accused
<2723> (5746)

have
<2192> (5722)

the accusers
<2725>

face to face
<2596> <4383>_,

<5037>

and have
<2983> (5630)

licence
<5117>

to answer for himself
<627>

concerning
<4012>

the crime laid against him
<1462>_.

25:17

Therefore
<3767>_,

when they
<846>

were come
<4905> (5631)

hither
<1759>_,

without
<4160> (5671)

any
<3367>

delay
<311>

on the morrow
<1836>

I sat
<2523> (5660)

on
<1909>

the judgment seat
<968>_,

and commanded
<2753> (5656)

the man
<435>

to be brought forth
<71> (5683)_.

25:18

Against
<4012>

whom
<3739>

when the accusers
<2725>

stood up
<2476> (5685)_,

they brought
<2018> (5707)

none
<3762>

accusation
<156>

of such things as
<3739>

I
<1473>

supposed
<5282> (5707)_:

25:19

But
<1161>

had
<2192> (5707)

certain
<5100>

questions
<2213>

against
<4314>

him
<846>

of
<4012>

their own
<2398>

superstition
<1175>_,

and
<2532>

of
<4012>

one
<5100>

Jesus
<2424>_,

which was dead
<2348> (5761)_,

whom
<3739>

Paul
<3972>

affirmed
<5335> (5707)

to be alive
<2198> (5721)_.

25:20

And
<1161>

because I
<1473>

doubted
<639> (5734)

of
<1519>

such
<5127>

manner
<4012>

of questions
<2214>_,

I asked
<3004> (5707)

[him] whether
<1487>

he would
<1014> (5739)

go
<4198> (5738)

to
<1519>

Jerusalem
<2419>_,

and there
<2546>

be judged
<2919> (5745)

of
<4012>

these matters
<5130>_.

{I doubted...: or, I was doubtful how to enquire hereof}

25:21

But
<1161>

when Paul
<3972>

had appealed
<1941> (5671)

to be reserved
<5083> (5683) <846>

unto
<1519>

the hearing
<1233>

of Augustus
<4575>_,

I commanded
<2753> (5656)

him
<846>

to be kept
<5083> (5745)

till
<2193> <3757>

I might send
<3992> (5661)

him
<846>

to
<4314>

Caesar
<2541>_.

{hearing: or, judgment}

25:22

Then
<1161>

Agrippa
<67>

said
<5346> (5713)

unto
<4314>

Festus
<5347>_,

I would
<1014> (5711)

also
<2532>

hear
<191> (5658)

the man
<444>

myself
<846>_.

To morrow
<839>_,

<1161>

said
<5346> (5748)

he, thou shalt hear
<191> (5695)

him
<846>_.

25:23

And on the morrow
<1887>_,

when
<3767>

Agrippa
<67>

was come
<2064> (5631)_,

and
<2532>

Bernice
<959>_,

with
<3326>

great
<4183>

pomp
<5325>_,

and
<2532>

was entered
<1525> (5631)

into
<1519>

the place of hearing
<201>_,

with
<4862> <5037>

the chief captains
<5506>_,

and
<2532>

principal
<2596> <1851>

men
<435>

of
<5607> (5752)

the city
<4172>_,

at
<2532>

Festus
<5347>_'

commandment
<2753> (5660)

Paul
<3972>

was brought forth
<71> (5681)_.

25:24

And
<2532>

Festus
<5347>

said
<5346> (5748)_,

King
<935>

Agrippa
<67>_,

and
<2532>

all
<3956>

men
<435>

which
<3588>

are here present
<4840> (5752)

with us
<2254>_,

ye see
<2334> (5719) (5720)

this man
<5126>_,

about
<4012>

whom
<3739>

all
<3956>

the multitude
<4128>

of the Jews
<2453>

have dealt
<1793> (5627)

with me
<3427>_,

both
<5037>

at
<1722>

Jerusalem
<2414>_,

and
<2532>

[also] here
<1759>_,

crying
<1916> (5723)

that he ought
<1163> (5750)

not
<3361>

to live
<2198> (5721)

any longer
<3371>_.

25:25

But
<1161>

when I
<1473>

found
<2638> (5642)

that he
<846>

had committed
<4238> (5760)

nothing
<3367>

worthy
<514>

of death
<2288>_,

and
<2532> <1161>

that he himself
<846>

hath appealed
<5127>

to
<1941> (5671)

Augustus
<4575>_,

I have determined
<2919> (5656)

to send
<3992> (5721)

him
<846>_.

25:26

Of
<4012>

whom
<3739>

I have
<2192> (5719)

no
<3756>

certain
<804>

thing
<5100>

to write
<1125> (5658)

unto my lord
<2962>_.

Wherefore
<1352>

I have brought
<4254> (0)

him
<846>

forth
<4254> (5627)

before
<1909>

you
<5216>_,

and
<2532>

specially
<3122>

before
<1909>

thee
<4675>_,

O king
<935>

Agrippa
<67>_,

that
<3704>_,

after examination
<351>

had
<1096> (5637)_,

I might have
<2192> (5632)

somewhat
<5100>

to write
<1125> (5658)_.

25:27

For
<1063>

it seemeth
<1380> (5719)

to me
<3427>

unreasonable
<249>

to send
<3992> (5723)

a prisoner
<1198>_,

and
<2532>

not withal
<3361>

to signify
<4591> (5658)

the crimes
<156>

[laid] against
<2596>

him
<846>_.
