Acts 25:7-11

New King James Version

⁷ When he had come, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood about ^(A)and laid many serious complaints against Paul, which they could not prove, ⁸ while he answered for himself, ^(B)“Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I offended in anything at all.”

⁹ But Festus, ^(C)wanting to do the Jews a favor, answered Paul and said, ^(D)“Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and there be judged before me concerning these things?”

¹⁰ So Paul said, “I stand at Caesar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be judged. To the Jews I have done no wrong, as you very well know. ^11 (E)For if I am an offender, or have committed anything deserving of death, I do not object to dying; but if there is nothing in these things of which these men accuse me, no one can deliver me to them. ^(F)I appeal to Caesar.”
