Acts 24:25

Paul Before Felix And Drusilla

²⁴ But after some days, Felix came with Drusilla his wife, who was of the Jews by birth, and sent for Paul, and gave hearing to him about faith in Christ Jesus. ²⁵ And while he was talking about righteousness and self-control and the judging which was to come, Felix had great fear and said, Go away for the present, and when the right time comes I will send for you. ²⁶ For he was hoping that Paul would give him money: so he sent for him more frequently and had talk with him.
