Acts 25:1--26:32

25:1
Now
<3767>
when Festus
<5347>
was come
<1910> (5631)
into the province
<1885>_,
after
<3326>
three
<5140>
days
<2250>
he ascended
<305> (5627)
from
<575>
Caesarea
<2542>
to
<1519>
Jerusalem
<2414>_.
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>_.
26:1
Then
<1161>
Agrippa
<67>
said
<5346> (5713)
unto
<4314>
Paul
<3972>_,
Thou
<4671>
art permitted
<2010> (5743)
to speak
<3004> (5721)
for
<5228>
thyself
<4572>_.
Then
<5119>
Paul
<3972>
stretched forth
<1614> (5660)
the hand
<5495>_,
and answered for himself
<626> (5711)_:
26:2
I think
<2233> (5766)
myself
<1683>
happy
<3107>_,
king
<935>
Agrippa
<67>_,
because I shall
<3195> (5723)
answer for myself
<626> (5738)
this day
<4594>
before
<1909>
thee
<4675>
touching
<4012>
all the things
<3956>
whereof
<3739>
I am accused
<1458> (5743)
of
<5259>
the Jews
<2453>_:
26:3
Especially
<3122>
[because I know
<1492> (5761)_]
thee
<4571>
to be
<5607> (5752)
expert
<1109> <5037>
in all
<3956>
customs
<1485>
and
<2532>
questions
<2213>
which are among
<2596>
the Jews
<2453>_:
wherefore
<1352>
I beseech
<1189> (5736)
thee
<4675>
to hear
<191> (5658)
me
<3450>
patiently
<3116>_.
26:4
My
<3450>
manner
<3303> <3767>
of life
<981>
from
<1537>
my youth
<3503>_,
which
<3588>
was
<1096> (5637)
at
<575>
the first
<746>
among
<1722>
mine
<3450>
own nation
<1484>
at
<1722>
Jerusalem
<2414>_,
know
<2467> (5758)
all
<3956>
the Jews
<2453>_;
26:5
Which knew
<4267> (5723)
me
<3165>
from the beginning
<509>_,
if
<1437>
they would
<2309> (5725)
testify
<3140> (5721)_,
that
<3754>
after
<2596>
the most straitest
<196>
sect
<139>
of our
<2251>
religion
<2356>
I lived
<2198> (5656)
a Pharisee
<5330>_.
26:6
And
<2532>
now
<3568>
I stand
<2476> (5758)
and am judged
<2919> (5746)
for
<1909>
the hope
<1680>
of the promise
<1860>
made
<1096> (5637)
of
<5259>
God
<2316>
unto
<4314>
our fathers
<3962>_:
26:7
Unto
<1519>
which
<3739>
[promise] our
<2257>
twelve tribes
<1429>_,
instantly
<1722> <1616>
serving
<3000> (5723)
[God] day
<2250>
and
<2532>
night
<3571>_,
hope
<1679> (5719)
to come
<2658> (5658)_.
For
<4012>
which
<3739>
hope's sake
<1680>_,
king
<935>
Agrippa
<67>_,
I am accused
<1458> (5743)
of
<5259>
the Jews
<2453>_.
{day and night: Gr. night and day}
26:8
Why
<5101>
should it be thought a thing
<2919> (5743)
incredible
<571>
with
<3844>
you
<5213>_,
that
<1487>
God
<2316>
should raise
<1453> (5719)
the dead
<3498>_?
26:9
I
<1473>
verily
<3303> <3767>
thought
<1380> (5656)
with myself
<1683>_,
that I ought
<1163> (5750)
to do
<4238> (5658)
many things
<4183>
contrary
<1727>
to
<4314>
the name
<3686>
of Jesus
<2424>
of Nazareth
<3480>_.
26:10
Which thing
<3739>
I
<4160> (0)
also
<2532>
did
<4160> (5656)
in
<1722>
Jerusalem
<2414>_:
and
<2532>
many
<4183>
of the saints
<40>
did
<2623> (0)
I
<1473>
shut up
<2623> (5656)
in prison
<5438>_,
having received
<2983> (5631)
authority
<1849>
from
<3844>
the chief priests
<749>_;
and
<5037>
when they
<846>
were put to death
<337> (5746)_,
I gave
<2702> (5656)
my voice
<5586>
against [them].
26:11
And
<2532>
I punished
<5097> (5723)
them
<846>
oft
<4178>
in
<2596>
every
<3956>
synagogue
<4864>_,
and compelled
<315> (5707)
[them] to blaspheme
<987> (5721)_;
and
<5037>
being
<1693> (0)
exceedingly
<4057>
mad against
<1693> (5740)
them
<846>_,
I persecuted
<1377> (5707)
[them] even
<2532>
unto
<1519> <2193>
strange
<1854>
cities
<4172>_.
26:12
<2532>@ Whereupon
<1722> <3739>
as I went
<4198> (5740)
to
<1519>
Damascus
<1154>
with
<3326>
authority
<1849>
and
<2532>
commission
<2011>
from
<3844>
the chief priests
<749>_,
26:13
At midday
<2250> <3319>_,
O king
<935>_,
I saw
<1492> (5627)
in
<2596>
the way
<3598>
a light
<5457>
from heaven
<3771>_,
above
<5228>
the brightness
<2987>
of the sun
<2246>_,
shining round about
<4034> (5660)
me
<3165>
and
<2532>
them which journeyed
<4198> (5740)
with
<4862>
me
<1698>_.
26:14
And
<1161>
when we
<2257>
were
<2667> (0)
all
<3956>
fallen
<2667> (5631)
to
<1519>
the earth
<1093>_,
I heard
<191> (5656)
a voice
<5456>
speaking
<2980> (5723)
unto
<4314>
me
<3165>_,
and
<2532>
saying
<3004> (5723)
in the Hebrew
<1446>
tongue
<1258>_,
Saul
<4549>_,
Saul
<4549>_,
why
<5101>
persecutest thou
<1377> (5719)
me
<3165>_?
[it is] hard
<4642>
for thee
<4671>
to kick
<2979> (5721)
against
<4314>
the pricks
<2759>_.
26:15
And
<1161>
I
<1473>
said
<2036> (5627)_,
Who
<5101>
art thou
<1488> (5748)_,
Lord
<2962>_?
And
<1161>
he said
<2036> (5627)_,
I
<1473>
am
<1510> (5748)
Jesus
<2424>
whom
<3739>
thou
<4771>
persecutest
<1377> (5719)_.
26:16
But
<235>
rise
<450> (5628)_,
and
<2532>
stand
<2476> (5628)
upon
<1909>
thy
<4675>
feet
<4228>_:
for
<1063>
I have appeared
<3700> (5681)
unto thee
<4671>
for
<1519>
this purpose
<5124>_,
to make
<4400> (5664)
thee
<4571>
a minister
<5257>
and
<2532>
a witness
<3144>
both
<5037>
of these things which
<3739>
thou hast seen
<1492> (5627)_,
and
<5037>
of those things in the which
<3739>
I will appear
<3700> (5701)
unto thee
<4671>_;
26:17
Delivering
<1807> (5734)
thee
<4571>
from
<1537>
the people
<2992>_,
and
<2532>
[from] the Gentiles
<1484>_,
unto
<1519>
whom
<3739>
now
<3568>
I send
<649> (5719)
thee
<4571>_,
26:18
To open
<455> (5658)
their
<846>
eyes
<3788>_,
[and] to turn
<1994> (5658)
[them] from
<575>
darkness
<4655>
to
<1519>
light
<5457>_,
and
<2532>
[from] the power
<1849>
of Satan
<4567>
unto
<1909>
God
<2316>_,
that they
<846>
may receive
<2983> (5629)
forgiveness
<859>
of sins
<266>_,
and
<2532>
inheritance
<2819>
among
<1722>
them which are sanctified
<37> (5772)
by faith
<4102>
that is in
<1519>
me
<1691>_.
26:19
Whereupon
<3606>_,
O king
<935>
Agrippa
<67>_,
I was
<1096> (5633)
not
<3756>
disobedient
<545>
unto the heavenly
<3770>
vision
<3701>_:
26:20
But
<235>
shewed
<518> (5723) (5625) <518> (5707)
first
<4412>
unto them of
<1722>
Damascus
<1154>_,
and
<2532>
at Jerusalem
<2414>_,
and
<5037>
throughout
<1519>
all
<3956>
the coasts
<5561>
of Judaea
<2449>_,
and
<2532>
[then] to the Gentiles
<1484>_,
that they should repent
<3340> (5721)
and
<2532>
turn
<1994> (5721)
to
<1909>
God
<2316>_,
and do
<4238> (5723)
works
<2041>
meet
<514>
for repentance
<3341>_.
26:21
For
<1752>
these causes
<5130>
the Jews
<2453>
caught
<4815> (5642)
me
<3165>
in
<1722>
the temple
<2411>_,
and went about
<3987> (5711)
to kill
<1315> (5670)
[me].
26:22
Having
<5177> (0)
therefore
<3767>
obtained
<5177> (5631)
help
<1947>
of
<3844>
God
<2316>_,
I continue
<2476> (5758)
unto
<891>
this
<5026>
day
<2250>_,
witnessing
<3140> (5746)
both
<5037>
to small
<3398>
and
<2532>
great
<3173>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)
none other things
<3762>
than
<1622>
those which
<3739> <5037>
the prophets
<4396>
and
<2532>
Moses
<3475>
did say
<2980> (5656)
should
<3195> (5723)
come
<1096> (5738)_:
26:23
That
<1487>
Christ
<5547>
should suffer
<3805>_,
[and] that
<1487>
he should be the first
<4413>
that should rise
<386>
from
<1537>
the dead
<3498>_,
and should
<3195> (5719)
shew
<2605> (5721)
light
<5457>
unto the people
<2992>_,
and
<2532>
to the Gentiles
<1484>_.
26:24
And
<1161>
as he
<846>
thus
<5023>
spake for himself
<626> (5740)_,
Festus
<5347>
said
<5346> (5713)
with a loud
<3173>
voice
<5456>_,
Paul
<3972>_,
thou art beside thyself
<3105> (5736)_;
much
<4183>
learning
<1121>
doth make
<4062> (5719)
thee
<4571>
mad
<1519> <3130>_.
26:25
But
<1161>
he said
<5346> (5748)_,
I am
<3105> (0)
not
<3756>
mad
<3105> (5736)_,
most noble
<2903>
Festus
<5347>_;
but
<235>
speak forth
<669> (5736)
the words
<4487>
of truth
<225>
and
<2532>
soberness
<4997>_.
26:26
For
<1063>
the king
<935>
knoweth
<1987> (5736)
of
<4012>
these
<5130>
things, before
<4314>
whom
<3739>
also
<2532>
I speak
<2980> (5719)
freely
<3955> (5740)_:
for
<1063>
I am persuaded
<3982> (5743)
that
<3756>
none
<5100> <3762>
of these things
<5130>
are hidden
<2990> (5721)
from him
<846>_;
for
<1063>
this thing
<5124>
was
<2076> (5748)
not
<3756>
done
<4238> (5772)
in
<1722>
a corner
<1137>_.
26:27
King
<935>
Agrippa
<67>_,
believest thou
<4100> (5719)
the prophets
<4396>_?
I know
<1492> (5758)
that
<3754>
thou believest
<4100> (5719)_.
26:28
Then
<1161>
Agrippa
<67>
said
<5346> (5713)
unto
<4314>
Paul
<3972>_,
Almost
<1722> <3641>
thou persuadest
<3982> (5719)
me
<3165>
to be
<1096> (5635)
a Christian
<5546>_.
26:29
And
<1161>
Paul
<3972>
said
<2036> (5627)_,
I would
<302> <2172> (5665)
to God
<2316>_,
that not
<3756>
only
<3440>
thou
<4571>_,
but
<235>
also
<2532>
all
<3956>
that hear
<191> (5723)
me
<3450>
this day
<4594>_,
were
<1096> (5635)
both
<2532>
almost
<1722> <3641>_,
and
<2532>
altogether
<1722> <4183>
such
<5108>
as
<3697> <2504>
I am
<1510> (5748)_,
except
<3924>
these
<5130>
bonds
<1199>_.
26:30
And
<2532>
when he
<846>
had
<2036> (0)
thus
<5023>
spoken
<2036> (5631)_,
the king
<935>
rose up
<450> (5627)_,
and
<2532>
the governor
<2232>_,
and
<5037>
Bernice
<959>_,
and
<2532>
they that sat with
<4775> (5740)
them
<846>_:
26:31
And
<2532>
when they were gone aside
<402> (5660)_,
they talked
<2980> (5707)
between
<4314>
themselves
<240>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,

<3754>
This
<3778>
man
<444>
doeth
<4238> (5719)
nothing
<3762>
worthy
<514>
of death
<2288>
or
<2228>
of bonds
<1199>_.
26:32
Then
<1161>
said
<5346> (5713)
Agrippa
<67>
unto Festus
<5347>_,
This
<3778>
man
<444>
might
<1410> (5711)
have been set at liberty
<630> (5771)_,
if
<1508> (0)
he had
<1941> (0)
not
<1508>
appealed unto
<1941> (5716)
Caesar
<2541>_.
