And after some days king Agrippa and Bernice came to Caesarea to greet Festus.

And Agrippa said to Festus, I also would like to hear the man myself. And he said, Tomorrow you shall hear him.

And on the next day, when Agrippa and Bernice had come with great pomp and had entered into the auditorium with both the chiliarchs and principal men of the city, also Festus commanding, Paul was brought out.

And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all those men present with us, you see this one about whom all the multitude of the Jews pleaded with me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying that he ought not to live any longer.

about whom I have no certain thing to write of him to my lord. Therefore I brought him before you, and especially before you, O king Agrippa, so that, after examination is made, I might have something to write.

And Agrippa said to Paul, You are permitted to speak for yourself. Then stretching out his hand, Paul made a defense:

Concerning all of which I am accused by Jews, king Agrippa, I think myself happy being about to make defense before you today,

to which promise our twelve tribes hope to attain, serving God fervently night and day. For the sake of this hope, king Agrippa, I am accused by the Jews.

After this, king Agrippa, I did not disobey the heavenly vision.

King Agrippa, do you believe the Prophets? I know that you believe.

And Agrippa said to Paul, Do you persuade me to be a Christian in but a little?

And Agrippa said to Festus, This man might have been set at liberty if he had not appealed to Caesar.
