Acts 25:13-17 ▼

13 Now when some days had passed, Agrippa the King and Bernice arrived at Caesarea, and greeted Festus.

14 As they stayed there many days, Festus laid Paul's case before the king, saying, |There is a certain man left a prisoner by Felix;

15 about whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the Jewish elders informed me, asking for a sentence against him.

16 To whom I answered that it is not the custom of the Romans to give up anyone before the accused has met the accusers face to face, and has had opportunity to make his defense against the charge.

17 When therefore they had come together here, I did not delay, but on the next day sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought.
