Common English Bible

²⁶ Claudius Lysias, to the most honorable Governor Felix: Greetings. ²⁷ This man was seized by the Jews and was almost killed by them. I was nearby with a unit of soldiers, and I rescued him when I discovered that he was a Roman citizen. ²⁸ I wanted to find out why they were accusing him, so I brought him to their council.
