Acts 25:7-9

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁷ After Paul arrived, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing ^(A)many and serious charges against him ^(B)which they could not prove, ⁸ while Paul said in his own defense, “^(C)I have committed no offense either against the Law of the Jews or against the temple or against Caesar.” ⁹ But Festus, ^(D)wishing to do the Jews a favor, answered Paul and said, “^(E)Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and ^[a]stand trial before me on these charges?”
