保羅受審
24 過了五天，大祭司亞拿尼亞同幾個長老，和一個律師帖土羅來了，他們向總督控告保羅。 2 保羅傳來了之後，帖土羅就控訴他說：“腓力斯大人，因著你的緣故，我們大大地享受著太平；因著你的遠見，本國大事改革； 3 我們隨時隨地感激不盡。 4 現在我不想多煩擾你，只求你寬容一下，聽我們講幾句話。 5 我們看這個人就像瘟疫一樣，是煽動普天下猶太人生亂的人，又是拿撒勒派的首領。 6 他還意圖污穢聖殿，我們就把他捉住。（有些抄本在此有以下一段：“我們想按照我們的律法審問他。7可是千夫長呂西亞來了，用武力把他從我們手中搶走，８還吩咐原告到你這裡來。”） 8 你親自審問之後，就必清楚知道我們告他的一切事了。” 9 猶太人也都跟他一同控告保羅，證實事情確是這樣。
保羅在腓力斯面前申辯
10 總督向保羅示意，叫他說話，他就說：“我知道你在本國審案多年，所以樂意為自己申辯。 11 你清楚知道，自從我上耶路撒冷去禮拜，到現在還沒有十二天； 12 無論在殿裡、會堂中或城裡，他們都沒有看見我跟人辯論，或煽動群眾作亂， 13 也不能向你證明他們現在控告我的事。 14 但有一件事我要向你承認，他們所稱為異端的這道，我正是根據這道來敬拜我祖先的 神的。一切律法和先知所記的，我都相信。 15 我靠著 神所存的盼望，也是他們自己所期待的，就是義人和不義的人都要復活； 16 因此，我常常勉勵自己，對 神對人要常存無虧的良心。 17 過了幾年我帶著捐款回來賙濟本國，同時也帶了祭物， 18 他們看見我在殿裡的時候，我已經行完了潔淨禮，並沒有和一大群人在一起，也沒有生亂， 19 只有幾個從亞西亞來的猶太人而已。他們若有事要控告我，就應該到你面前來控告。 20 要不然，當我站在公議會中受審的時候，這些人若發現我有甚麼罪行，早就親自說出來了。 21 如果有的話，就是我站在他們中間所喊的：‘我今天在你們面前受審，是為了死人復活的事’那一句話。”
22 腓力斯本來就詳細曉得這道，卻故意拖延他們，說：“等千夫長呂西亞來了，再斷定你們的事。” 23 於是吩咐百夫長看守保羅，但要寬待他，不可阻止親友來照料他。
腓力斯聽道後害怕起來
24 過了幾天，腓力斯和他的猶太妻子土西拉一同來到，他又傳見保羅，聽他談論在耶穌基督裡的信仰。 25 保羅講到公義、自制和將來的審判的時候，腓力斯就害怕起來，說：“你先走吧，等我有空的時候再叫你來。” 26 同時他也希望保羅送錢給他，所以又多次傳見他，和他談話。
27 過了兩年，波求．非斯都接了腓力斯的任；腓力斯為要討好猶太人，就把保羅留在監裡。

Paul’s Trial Before Felix
24 Five days later the high priest Ananias(A) went down to Caesarea with some of the elders and a lawyer named Tertullus, and they brought their charges(B) against Paul before the governor.(C) 2 When Paul was called in, Tertullus presented his case before Felix: “We have enjoyed a long period of peace under you, and your foresight has brought about reforms in this nation. 3 Everywhere and in every way, most excellent(D) Felix, we acknowledge this with profound gratitude. 4 But in order not to weary you further, I would request that you be kind enough to hear us briefly.
5 “We have found this man to be a troublemaker, stirring up riots(E) among the Jews(F) all over the world. He is a ringleader of the Nazarene(G) sect(H) 6 and even tried to desecrate the temple;(I) so we seized him. [7] [a] 8 By examining him yourself you will be able to learn the truth about all these charges we are bringing against him.”
9 The other Jews joined in the accusation,(J) asserting that these things were true.
10 When the governor(K) motioned for him to speak, Paul replied: “I know that for a number of years you have been a judge over this nation; so I gladly make my defense. 11 You can easily verify that no more than twelve days(L) ago I went up to Jerusalem to worship. 12 My accusers did not find me arguing with anyone at the temple,(M) or stirring up a crowd(N) in the synagogues or anywhere else in the city. 13 And they cannot prove to you the charges they are now making against me.(O) 14 However, I admit that I worship the God of our ancestors(P) as a follower of the Way,(Q) which they call a sect.(R) I believe everything that is in accordance with the Law and that is written in the Prophets,(S) 15 and I have the same hope in God as these men themselves have, that there will be a resurrection(T) of both the righteous and the wicked.(U) 16 So I strive always to keep my conscience clear(V) before God and man.
17 “After an absence of several years, I came to Jerusalem to bring my people gifts for the poor(W) and to present offerings. 18 I was ceremonially clean(X) when they found me in the temple courts doing this. There was no crowd with me, nor was I involved in any disturbance.(Y) 19 But there are some Jews from the province of Asia,(Z) who ought to be here before you and bring charges if they have anything against me.(AA) 20 Or these who are here should state what crime they found in me when I stood before the Sanhedrin— 21 unless it was this one thing I shouted as I stood in their presence: ‘It is concerning the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial before you today.’”(AB)
22 Then Felix, who was well acquainted with the Way,(AC) adjourned the proceedings. “When Lysias the commander comes,” he said, “I will decide your case.” 23 He ordered the centurion to keep Paul under guard(AD) but to give him some freedom(AE) and permit his friends to take care of his needs.(AF)
24 Several days later Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish. He sent for Paul and listened to him as he spoke about faith in Christ Jesus.(AG) 25 As Paul talked about righteousness, self-control(AH) and the judgment(AI) to come, Felix was afraid(AJ) and said, “That’s enough for now! You may leave. When I find it convenient, I will send for you.” 26 At the same time he was hoping that Paul would offer him a bribe, so he sent for him frequently and talked with him.
27 When two years had passed, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus,(AK) but because Felix wanted to grant a favor to the Jews,(AL) he left Paul in prison.(AM)

Paul Is Accused in the Court of Felix
24 Five days later Ananias the high priest, together with some of their leaders and a lawyer named Tertullus, went to the governor to present their case against Paul. 2 So Paul was called in, and Tertullus stated the case against him:[a]
Honorable Felix, you have brought our people a long period of peace, and because of your concern our nation is much better off. 3 All of us are always grateful for what you have done. 4 I don't want to bother you, but please be patient with us and listen to me for just a few minutes.
5 This man has been found to be a real pest and troublemaker for our people all over the world. He is also a leader of a group called Nazarenes. 6-8 When he tried to disgrace the temple, we arrested him.[b] If you question him, you will find out for yourself that our charges are true.
9 The Jewish crowd spoke up and agreed with what Tertullus had said.
Paul Defends Himself
10 The governor motioned for Paul to speak, and he began:
I know that you have judged the people of our nation for many years, and I am glad to defend myself in your court.
11 It was no more than twelve days ago that I went to worship in Jerusalem. You can find this out easily enough. 12 Never once did the Jews find me arguing with anyone in the temple. I didn't cause trouble in the synagogues or in the city itself. 13 There is no way that they can prove these charges they are now bringing against me.
14 I admit that their leaders think the Lord's Way[c] which I follow is based on wrong beliefs. But I still worship the same God that my ancestors worshiped. And I believe everything written in the Law of Moses and in the Prophets.[d] 15 I am just as sure as these people are that God will raise from death everyone, good or evil. 16 And because I am sure, I try my best to have a clear conscience in whatever I do for God or for people.
17 (A) After being away for several years, I returned here to bring gifts for the poor people of my nation and to offer sacrifices. 18 This is what I was doing when I was found going through a ceremony in the temple. I wasn't with a crowd, and there was no uproar.
19 Some Jews from Asia were there at that time, and if they have anything to say against me, they should be here now. 20 Or ask the ones who are here. They can tell you that they didn't find me guilty of anything when I was tried by their own council. 21 (B) The only charge they can bring against me is what I shouted out in court, when I said, “I am on trial today because I believe that the dead will be raised to life!”
22 Felix knew a lot about the Lord's Way.[e] But he brought the trial to an end and said, “I will make my decision after Lysias the commander arrives.” 23 He then ordered the army officer to keep Paul under guard, but not to lock him up or to stop his friends from helping him.
Paul Is Kept under Guard
24 Several days later Felix and his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish, went to the place where Paul was kept under guard. They sent for Paul and listened while he spoke to them about having faith in Christ Jesus. 25 But Felix was frightened when Paul started talking to them about doing right, about self-control, and about the coming judgment. So he said to Paul, “That's enough for now. You may go. But when I have time I will send for you.” 26 After this, Felix often sent for Paul and talked with him, because he hoped that Paul would offer him a bribe.
27 Two years later Porcius Festus became governor in place of Felix. But since Felix wanted to do the Jewish leaders a favor, he kept Paul in jail.
