Paul before Agrippa

²³ So, on the next day when ^(A)Agrippa and ^(B)Bernice came amid great pomp and entered the auditorium, ^[a]accompanied by the commanders and the prominent men of the city, at the command of Festus, Paul was brought before them. ²⁴ And Festus *said, “King Agrippa, and all you gentlemen present with us, you see this man about whom ^(C)all the people of the Jews appealed to me, both in Jerusalem and here, shouting that ^(D)he ought not to live any longer. ²⁵ But I found that he had committed ^(E)nothing deserving death; and since he himself ^(F)appealed to ^[b]the Emperor, I decided to send him. ^26 [c]Yet, I have nothing definite about him to write to my lord. Therefore, I have brought him before you all and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that after the investigation has taken place, I may have something to write.
