2And the chief priests and the chief men of the Jews made statements against Paul,
3Requesting Festus to give effect to their design against him, and send him to Jerusalem, when they would be waiting to put him to death on the way.
4But Festus, in answer, said that Paul was being kept in prison at Caesarea, and that in a short time he himself was going there.
5So, he said, let those who have authority among you go with me, and if there is any wrong in the man, let them make a statement against him.
6And when he had been with them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea; and on the day after, he took his place on the judge's seat, and sent for Paul.
7And when he came, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem came round him, and made all sorts of serious statements against him, which were not supported by the facts.
8Then Paul, in his answer to them, said, I have done no wrong against the law of the Jews, or against the Temple, or against Caesar.
