10 Paul said, |I am standing in the emperor's court where I must be tried. I haven't done anything wrong to the Jews, as you know very well.

11 If I am guilty and have done something wrong for which I deserve the death penalty, I don't reject the idea of dying. But if their accusations are untrue, no one can hand me over to them as a favor. I appeal my case to the emperor!|

12 Festus discussed the appeal with his advisers and then replied to Paul, |You have appealed your case to the emperor, so you'll go to the emperor!|
