About whom the accusers, having stood up, brought no charge of what I supposed: But had certain questions of their own superstition against him, and of a certain Jesus, having died, whom Paul declared living. And I doubting at the question concerting this, said, If he be willing to go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things. And Paul having appealed for him to be kept for the determination of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I send him to Caesar. And Agrippa said to Festus, I wished myself also to hear the man. And he said, Tomorrow thou shalt hear him. Therefore the morrow, Agrippa having come, and Bernice, with much display, and having come into the hall, also with captains of thousands, and men of the city being in eminence, and Festus having commanded, Paul was brought.

Wherefore I brought him to you, and especially to thee, king Agrippa, so that, examination having been, I should have some thing to write. For it seems to me unreasonable sending one in bonds, and not to signify the charges against him.
