Acts 24:1-27

And
<1161>
after
<3326>
five
<4002>
days
<2250>
Ananias
<367>
the high priest
<749>
descended
<2597> (5627)
with
<3326>
the elders
<4245>_,
and
<2532>
[with] a certain
<5100>
orator
<4489>
[named] Tertullus
<5061>_,
who
<3748>
informed
<1718> (5656)
the governor
<2232>
against
<2596>
Paul
<3972>_.
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>_,
<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>_.
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>_.
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>_:
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>_.
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>_,
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>_.
And
<1161>
the Jews
<2453>
also
<2532>
assented
<4934> (5639)_,
saying
<5335> (5723)
that these things
<5023>
were
<2192> (5721)
so
<3779>_.
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>_:
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)_.
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>_:
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>_.
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>_:
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
<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>_.
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>_.
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>_,
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
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)_.
