Acts 25:1-6

¹Now when Festus was come into the province, after three days he ascended from Cesarea to Jerusalem.

²Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and besought him,

³and desired favour against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying wait in the way to kill him.

⁴But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Cesarea, and that he himself would depart shortly thither.

⁵Let them therefore, said he, which among you are able, go down with me, and accuse this man, if there be any wickedness in him.

⁶And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down unto Cesarea; and the next day sitting in the judgment seat, commanded Paul to be brought.
