rotherham - Acts:25:1-12

rotherham@Acts:25:1 @ Festus, therefore, having come upon the province, after three days, went up unto Jerusalem from Caesarea;

rotherham@Acts:25:2 @ and the High-priest and chiefs of the Jews laid information before him against Paul, and began to beseech him

rotherham@Acts:25:3 @ asking for themselves as a favour against him, that he would send for him unto Jerusalem, making, an ambush, to kill him on the way.

rotherham@Acts:25:4 @ Festus, therefore, answered, that Paul should be kept in Caesarea, and that, he himself, was about, shortly, to be going out.

rotherham@Acts:25:5 @ They, therefore, among you (saith he) who are in power, let them go down with me; and, if there is in the man, anything amiss, let them accuse him.

rotherham@Acts:25:6 @ And, spending among them, not more than eight or ten days, he went down unto Caesarea; and, on the morrow, taking his place upon the judgment-seat, ordered Paul to be brought.

rotherham@Acts:25:7 @ And, when he presented himself, the Jews who, from Jerusalem, had come down, stood round about him, many and grievous charges, bringing against, which they were not able to prove,

rotherham@Acts:25:8 @ Paul saying in defence Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar, have I in anything sinned.

rotherham@Acts:25:9 @ But, Festus, wishing, with the Jews, to gain, favour, answered Paul, and said Art thou willing, unto Jerusalem, to go up, and, there, concerning these things, be judged before me?

rotherham@Acts:25:10 @ But Paul said Standing before the judgment-seat of Caesar, am I, where, I, ought to be judged. Unto the Jews, have I done no wrong, as, even thou, right well, art discovering.

rotherham@Acts:25:11 @ If then, on the one hand, I am doing wrong, and, anything worthy of death, have committed, I excuse not myself from dying; but, on the other hand, if there is, nothing, in the things whereof these are accusing me, no man, hath power to give, me, unto them as a favour: Unto Caesar, I appeal!

rotherham@Acts:25:12 @ Then Festus, having conversed with the council, answered Unto Caesar, hast thou appealed? Unto Caesar, shalt thou go.
