Now some days having passed, Agrippa the King and Bernice arrived at Caesarea, greeting Festus.

And Agrippa said to Festus, I also want to hear the man myself. And tomorrow, he says, thou will hear him.

Therefore on the morrow, Agrippa and Bernice having come with great pomp, and having entered into the courtroom, and with the chief captains and the men of prominence who were of the city, and Festus who commanded, Paul was brought

And Festus says, King Agrippa, and all who are present with us, ye see this man about whom all the multitude of the Jews appealed to me, both at Jerusalem and here, shouting he ought not to live any longer.

About whom I do not have anything certain to write to the lord. Therefore I brought him before you, and especially before thee, king Agrippa, so that, an examination having occurred, I may have something to write.

And Agrippa said to Paul, It is permitted thee to speak for thyself. Then Paul, having stretched forth his hand, made a defense.

Concerning all things of which I am accused by the Jews, king Agrippa, I consider myself blessed, being about to make my defense before thee today.

to which our twelve tribes, serving in earnestness night and day, hope to attain, about which hope, king Agrippa, I am accused by the Jews!

Whereupon, king Agrippa, I did not become disobedient to the heavenly vision,

King Agrippa, do thou believe the prophets? I know that thou believe.

And Agrippa said to Paul, By a little thou persuade me to become a Christian.

And Agrippa said to Festus, This man could have been released, if he had not appealed Caesar.
