Deeds (Act) of Apostles 24:15-26

¹⁵and I have hope in God, which also they themselves abide, the again-rising to coming or to come of just men and wicked.

¹⁶In this thing I study without hurting, to have conscience to God, and to men evermore.

¹⁷But after many years, I came to do alms-deeds to my folk, and offerings, and avows or vows;

¹⁸in which they found me purified in the temple, not with company, neither with noise. And they caught me, and they cried, and said, Take away our enemy. And some Jews of Asia,

¹⁹which or whom it behooved to be now present at thee, and accuse, if they had anything against me,

²⁰either these themselves say, if they found in me anything of wicked-ness, since I stand in the council,

²¹but only of this one voice, by which I cried standing among them, For of the again-rising of dead men I am deemed this day of you.

²²Soothly Felix delayed or deferred them, and knew most certainly of the way, and said, When Lysias, the tribune, shall come down, I shall hear you.

²³And he commanded to a centurion to keep him, and that he had rest or to have rest, neither to forbid any man to minister of his own things to him.

²⁴And after some days Felix came, with Drusilla his wife, that was a Jewess, and called Paul, and heard of him the faith that is in Christ Jesus.

²⁵And while he disputed of right-wiseness, and chastity, and of doom to coming or to come, Felix was made trembling, and answered, That pertaineth now, go; but in time covenable, I shall call thee.

²⁶Also he hoped, that money should be given to him of Paul; for which thing again or oft he called him, and spake with him.
