Acts 25:25-27
Lexham English Bible
25 But I understood that he had done nothing deserving death himself, and when[a] this man appealed to His Majesty the Emperor, I decided to send him.[b] 26 I do not have anything definite to write to my[c] lord about him.[d] Therefore I have brought him before you all[e]—and especially before you, King Agrippa—so that after[f] this preliminary hearing has taken place, I may have something to write. 27 For it seems unreasonable to me to send a prisoner and not to indicate the charges against him.”
