25:1 Nowe
when
Festus
was
come
into
the
prouince,
after
three
dayes
he
ascended
fro
Cesarea
to
Hierusalem.
25:2 Then
the
high
Priest,
and
the
chiefe
of
the
Iewes
informed
him
against
Paul,
and
besought
him,
25:3 And
desired
fauour
against
him,
that
he
would
send
for
him
to
Hierusalem,
laying
wait
in
the
way
to
kill
him.
25:4 But
Festus
answered,
that
Paul
should
be
kept
at
Cesarea,
and
that
hee
himselfe
would
depart
shortly
thither.
25:5 Let
them
therefore,
said
he,
which
among
you
are
able,
go
downe
with
me,
and
accuse
this
man,
if
there
be
any
wickednesse
in
him.
25:6 And
when
hee
had
taried
among
them
more
then
ten
dayes,
hee
went
downe
vnto
Cesarea,
and
the
next
day
sitting
in
the
iudgement
seat,
commanded
Paul
to
be
brought.
25:7 And
when
hee
was
come,
the
Iewes
which
came
downe
from
Hierusalem,
stood
round
about,
and
laide
many
and
grieuous
complaints
against
Paul,
which
they
could
not
proue,
25:8 While
hee
answered
for
himselfe,
Neither
against
the
law
of
the
Iewes,
neither
against
the
Temple,
nor
yet
against
Cesar,
haue
I
offended
any
thing
at
all.
25:9 But
Festus
willing
to
doe
the
Iewes
a
pleasure,
answered
Paul,
and
said,
Wilt
thou
goe
vp
to
Hierusalem,
and
there
be
iudged
of
these
things
before
me
25:10 Then
said
Paul,
I
stand
at
Cesars
iudgement
seat,
where
I
ought
to
bee
iudged;
to
the
Iewes
haue
I
done
no
wrong,
as
thou
very
well
knowest.
25:11 For
if
I
be
an
offender,
or
haue
committed
any
thing
worthy
of
death,
I
refuse
not
to
die:
but
if
there
be
none
of
these
things
whereof
these
accuse
me,
no
man
may
deliuer
me
vnto
them.
I
appeale
vnto
Cesar.
25:12 Then
Festus
when
he
had
conferred
with
the
Councill,
answered,
Hast
thou
appealed
vnto
Cesar
vnto
Cesar
shalt
thou
goe.
25:13 And
after
certaine
dayes,
king
Agrippa
and
Bernice,
came
vnto
Cesarea,
to
salute
Festus.
25:14 And
when
they
had
beene
there
many
dayes,
Festus
declared
Pauls
cause
vnto
the
king,
saying,
There
is
a
certaine
man
left
in
bonds
by
Felix:
25:15 About
whom
when
I
was
at
Hierusalem,
the
chiefe
Priests
and
the
Elders
of
the
Iewes
enformed
me,
desiring
to
haue
iudgement
against
him.
25:16 To
whom
I
answered,
It
is
not
the
maner
of
the
Romanes
to
deliuer
any
man
to
die,
before
that
he
which
is
accused,
haue
the
accusers
face
to
face,
and
haue
licence
to
answere
for
himselfe
concerning
the
crime
laid
against
him.
25:17 Therefore
when
they
were
come
hither,
without
any
delay,
on
the
morrow
I
sate
on
the
iudgement
seate,
and
comanded
the
man
to
be
brought
forth.
25:18 Against
whom
when
the
accusers
stood
vp,
they
brought
none
accusation
of
such
things
as
I
supposed:
25:19 But
had
certaine
questions
against
him
of
their
owne
superstition,
and
of
one
Iesus,
which
was
dead,
whom
Paul
affirmed
to
be
aliue.
25:20 And
because
I
doubted
of
such
maner
of
questions,
I
asked
him
whether
he
would
goe
to
Hierusalem,
and
there
be
iudged
of
these
matters.
25:21 But
when
Paul
had
appealed
to
bee
reserued
vnto
the
hearing
of
Augustus,
I
commanded
him
to
be
kept,
till
I
might
send
him
to
Cesar.
25:22 Then
Agrippa
said
vnto
Festus,
I
would
also
heare
the
man
my
selfe.
To
morrow,
said
he,
thou
shalt
heare
him.
25:23 And
on
the
morrow
when
Agrippa
was
come
and
Bernice,
with
great
pompe,
and
was
entred
into
the
place
of
hearing,
with
the
chiefe
captaines,
and
principall
men
of
the
citie;
at
Festus
commaundement
Paul
was
brought
foorth.
25:24 And
Festus
said,
King
Agrippa,
and
all
men
which
are
heere
present
with
vs,
ye
see
this
man,
about
whom
all
the
multitude
of
the
Iewes
haue
dealt
with
me,
both
at
Hierusalem,
and
also
heere,
crying
that
he
ought
not
to
liue
any
longer.
25:25 But
when
I
found
that
he
had
committed
nothing
worthy
of
death,
and
that
he
himselfe
hath
appealed
to
Augustus,
I
haue
determined
to
send
him.
25:26 Of
whom
I
haue
no
certaine
thing
to
write
vnto
my
Lord:
Wherefore
I
haue
brought
him
foorth
before
you,
and
specially
before
thee,
O
king
Agrippa,
that
after
examination
had,
I
might
haue
somewhat
to
write.
25:27 For
it
seemeth
to
me
vnreasonable,
to
send
a
prisoner,
and
not
withall
to
signifie
the
crimes
laid
against
him.
