dourh@Acts:24:1 @ And after five days the high priest Ananias came down, with some of the ancients, and one Tertullus an orator, who went to the governor against Paul.
dourh@Acts:24:2 @ And Paul being called for, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying: Whereas through thee we live in much peace, and many things are rectified by thy providence,
dourh@Acts:24:3 @ We accept it always and in all places, most excellent Felix, with all thanksgiving.
dourh@Acts:24:4 @ But that I be no further tedious to thee, I desire thee of thy clemency to hear us in few words.
dourh@Acts:24:5 @ We have found this to be a pestilent man, and raising seditions among all the Jews throughout the world, and author of the sedition of the sect of the Nazarenes.
dourh@Acts:24:6 @ Who also hath gone about to profane the temple: whom, we having apprehended, would also have judged according to our law.
dourh@Acts:24:7 @ But Lysias the tribune coming upon us, with great violence took him away out of our hands;
dourh@Acts:24:8 @ Commanding his accusers to come to thee: of whom thou mayest thyself, by examination, have knowledge of all these things, whereof we accuse him.
dourh@Acts:24:9 @ And the Jews also added, and said that these things were so.
dourh@Acts:24:10 @ Then Paul answered, (the governor making a sign to him to speak:) Knowing that for many years thou hast been judge over this nation, I will with good courage answer for myself.
dourh@Acts:24:11 @ For thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days, since I went up to adore in Jerusalem:
dourh@Acts:24:12 @ And neither in the temple did they find me disputing with any man, or causing any concourse of the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city:
dourh@Acts:24:13 @ Neither can they prove unto thee the things whereof they now accuse me.
dourh@Acts:24:14 @ But this I confess to thee, that according to the way, which they call a heresy, so do I serve the Father and my God, believing all things which are written in the law and the prophets:
dourh@Acts:24:15 @ Having hope in God, which these also themselves look for, that there shall be a resurrection of the just and unjust.
dourh@Acts:24:16 @ And herein do I endeavour to have always a conscience without offence toward God, and towards men.
dourh@Acts:24:17 @ Now after many years, I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings, and vows.
dourh@Acts:24:18 @ In which I was found purified in the temple: neither with multitude, nor with tumult.
dourh@Acts:24:19 @ But certain Jews of Asia, who ought to be present before thee, and to accuse, if they had any thing against me:
dourh@Acts:24:20 @ Or let these men themselves say, if they found in me any iniquity, when standing before the council,
dourh@Acts:24:21 @ Except it be for this one voice only that I cried, standing among them, Concerning the resurrection of the dead am I judged this day by you.
dourh@Acts:24:22 @ And Felix put them off, having most certain knowledge of this way, saying: When Lysias the tribune shall come down, I will hear you.
dourh@Acts:24:23 @ And he commanded a centurion to keep him, and that he should be easy, and that he should not prohibit any of his friends to minister unto him.
dourh@Acts:24:24 @ And after some days, Felix, coming with Drusilla his wife, who was a Jew, sent for Paul, and heard of him the faith, that is in Christ Jesus.
dourh@Acts:24:25 @ And as he treated of justice, and chastity, and of the judgment to come, Felix being terrified, answered: For this time, go thy way: but when I have a convenient time, I will send for thee.
dourh@Acts:24:26 @ Hoping also withal, that money should be given him by Paul; for which cause also oftentimes sending for him, he spoke with him.
dourh@Acts:24:27 @ But when two years were ended, Felix had for successor Portius Festus. And Felix being willing to shew the Jews a pleasure, left Paul bound.
