    6 After spending more than ten days among them, Festus went down to Caesarea. The next day, he took his seat on the judgment seat and ordered Paul to be brought in.

    7 When Paul arrived, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing many serious charges against him, which they could not prove.

    8 Paul defended himself, saying, 'I have committed no offense against the law of the Jews, the temple, or Caesar.'

    9 But Festus, wanting to do the Jews a favor, replied to Paul, 'Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and be tried there before me on these charges?'

    10 Paul said, 'I am standing before Caesar's judgment seat, where I ought to be tried. I have done no wrong to the Jews, as you yourself clearly know.'

    11 If I am guilty and have done anything deserving of death, I do not refuse to die. But if there is nothing to their accusations against me, no one has the right to hand me over to them. I appeal to Caesar.

    12 Then Festus, after conferring with his council, replied, 'You have appealed to Caesar; to Caesar you will go.'

    13 After several days had passed, King Agrippa and Bernice arrived in Caesarea to pay their respects to Festus.

    14 While they were spending many days there, Festus presented Paul’s case to the king, saying, 'There is a man who was left as a prisoner by Felix.'

    15 When I was in Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews brought charges against him, requesting a judgment against him.

    16 I answered them that it is not the custom of the Romans to hand over anyone before the accused has met their accusers face to face and has had an opportunity to defend himself against the charges.

    17 When they came here, I did not delay, but the next day took my seat at the tribunal and ordered the man to be brought in.

    18 When the accusers stood up, they did not charge him with any of the crimes I had expected.
