1 Festus therefore having come to the province, after three days went up to Jerusalem from Cesarea. 2 And the chief priest and first of the Jews exhibited to him against Paul, and besought him, 3 Asking favor against him, that he might send for him to Jerusalem, making an ambuscade to kill him in the way. 4 Then truly answered Festus, Paul to be kept in Cesarea, and himself quickly about to go forth. 5 Therefore the able among you, he says, having gone down together, if there be anything in this man, let them accuse him. 6 And having tarried with them more than ten days, having gone down to Cesarea, on the morrow, having sat upon the judgment seat, he commanded Paul to be brought.
