12When it was day, lthe Jews made a plot and mbound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink till they had killed Paul. 13There were more than forty who made this conspiracy. 14They went to the chief priests and elders and said, “We have strictly bound ourselves by an oath to taste no food till we have killed Paul. 15Now therefore you, along with the council, give notice to the tribune to bring him down to you, as though you were going to determine his case more exactly. And we are ready to kill him before he comes near.”

Paul Before Felix at Caesarea

1And nafter five days the high priest oAnanias came down with some elders and a spokesman, one Tertullus. They laid before pthe governor their case against Paul. 2And when he had been summoned, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying:

“Since through you we enjoy much peace, and since by your foresight, qmost excellent Felix, reforms are being made for this nation,
3in every way and everywhere we accept this with all gratitude. 4But, to detain
Or weary
you no further, I beg you in your kindness to hear us briefly.
5For we have found this man a plague, sone who stirs up riots among all the Jews throughout the world and is a ringleader of tthe sect of the Nazarenes. 6 uHe even tried to profane the temple, but we seized him.
Some manuscripts add and we would have judged him according to our law. 7But the chief captain Lysias came and with great violence took him out of our hands, 8commanding his accusers to come before you.
8By examining him yourself you will be able to find out from him about everything of which we accuse him.”

9The Jews also joined in the charge, affirming that all these things were so.

10And when the governor had nodded to him to speak, Paul replied:

Knowing that for many years you have been a judge over this nation, I cheerfully make my defense.
11You can verify that wit is not more than twelve days since I xwent up yto worship in Jerusalem, 12and zthey did not find me disputing with anyone or stirring up a crowd, either in the temple or in the synagogues or in the city. 13 aaNeither can they prove to you what they now bring up against me.
