Acts 23:26-30
21st Century King James Version
26 “Claudius Lysias, unto the most excellent governor Felix, sendeth greeting:
27 This man was taken by the Jews, and was about to be killed by them. Then came I with an army and rescued him, having understood that he was a Roman.
28 And desiring to know the cause whereof they accused him, I brought him forth into their council.
29 I perceived him to be accused about questions of their law, but there was nothing laid to his charge worthy of death or of bonds.
30 And when it was told me how the Jews lay in wait for the man, I sent him straightway to thee, and gave a command to his accusers also to speak before thee what they have against him. Farewell.”

New International Version
26 Claudius Lysias,
To His Excellency,(A) Governor Felix:
Greetings.(B)
27 This man was seized by the Jews and they were about to kill him,(C) but I came with my troops and rescued him,(D) for I had learned that he is a Roman citizen.(E) 28 I wanted to know why they were accusing him, so I brought him to their Sanhedrin.(F) 29 I found that the accusation had to do with questions about their law,(G) but there was no charge against him(H) that deserved death or imprisonment. 30 When I was informed(I) of a plot(J) to be carried out against the man, I sent him to you at once. I also ordered his accusers(K) to present to you their case against him.
