All hail the power of Jesus' name,
let angels prostrate fall.
| Acts 24:5 | For we found this man to be a troublemaker, one who stirs up riots among all the (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) Jews throughout the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) world, and a ringleader of the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) sect of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) Nazarenes. |
| Acts 24:6 | He even tried to desecrate the (to | τό | acc sg neut) temple, so we laid hold of him. |
| Acts 24:9 | And the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) Jews also joined the attack, saying that it was so. |
| Acts 24:10 | And Paul responded, when the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) governor motioned to him to speak: “Knowing that for many years you have been a judge over (tō | τῷ | dat sg neut) this nation, gladly do I make my own defense concerning these things (ta | τά | acc pl neut). |
| Acts 24:12 | and they did not find me arguing with anyone or stirring up a crowd, either in the (tō | τῷ | dat sg neut) temple or in the (tais | ταῖς | dat pl fem) synagogues or in the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) city. |
| Acts 24:14 | But this I confess to you, that according to the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) Way, which they call a sect, thus I worship the (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) God of our fathers, believing all things that (tois | τοῖς | dat pl neut) are according to the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) Law and written in the (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) Prophets, |
| Acts 24:15 | having a hope in God, which these men themselves accept, that there is to be a resurrection both of the just and of the unjust. |
| Acts 24:16 | In view of this I do my best to have a clear conscience toward God and men at all times. |
| Acts 24:17 | “Now, after several years, I came to my people bringing gifts for the poor and presenting offerings, |
| Acts 24:18 | which I was doing when they found me, ritually purified in the (tō | τῷ | dat sg neut) temple, without a crowd and without a commotion. |
| Acts 24:19 | But there are some Jews from Asia who ought to be here before you and bring charges, if they have anything against me. |
| Acts 24:20 | Or let these men themselves tell what wrongdoing they found when I stood before the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) council, |
| Acts 24:22 | But Felix, knowing more exactly the (ta | τά | acc pl neut) facts concerning the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) Way, put them off, saying, “When Lysias the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) commanding officer comes down, I will decide your case.” |
| Acts 24:23 | Then he commanded the (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) centurion to keep him in custody, but to let him have some freedom and not to prevent any of (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) his friends from taking care of his needs. |
| Acts 24:24 | After some days Felix arrived with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish. He sent for Paul and heard him speak about faith in Christ Jesus. |
| Acts 24:25 | And as he reasoned with him about righteousness and self-control and the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) judgment to come, Felix became frightened and said, “For the (to | τό | acc sg neut) present go away, but when I find time I will send for you.” |
| Acts 24:26 | At the same time he hoped that money would be given to him by Paul. So he sent for him frequently and conversed with him. |
| Acts 24:27 | When two years had passed, Felix was replaced by Porcius Festus, and wanting to curry favor with the (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) Jews, Felix left Paul in prison. |
| Acts 25:1 | Three days after arriving in the (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) province, Festus went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea. |
| Acts 25:2 | So the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) chief priests and the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) Jewish leaders brought formal charges against Paul, begging him |
| Acts 25:3 | and asking him to do them a favor against Paul; they urged Festus to transfer him to Jerusalem, for they were forming a plot to kill him along the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) way. |
| Acts 25:4 | So then Festus replied that Paul was being kept at Caesarea but that he himself intended to go there shortly. |
| Acts 25:5 | “So,” he said, “let your leaders go down there with me, and if there is in this (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) man anything improper, let them bring charges against him.” |
| Acts 25:6 | After he stayed among them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea, and the (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) next day he took his seat on the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) judge’s bench and ordered Paul to be brought. |
| Acts 25:7 | When he arrived, the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing many and serious charges against him, which they were not able to prove. |
