Acts 25:2-4

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

² where the chief priests and the leaders of the Jews gave him a report against Paul. They appealed to him ³ and requested, as a favour to them against Paul,^[a] to have him transferred to Jerusalem. They were, in fact, planning an ambush to kill him along the way. ⁴ Festus replied that Paul was being kept at Caesarea, and that he himself intended to go there shortly.
