24. And Festus said, `King Agrippa, and all men who are present with us, ye see this one, about whom all the multitude of the Jews did deal with me, both in Jerusalem and here, crying out, He ought not to live any longer;
25. and I, having found him to have done nothing worthy of death, and he also himself having appealed to Sebastus, I decided to send him,
26. concerning whom I have no certain thing to write to [my] lord, wherefore I brought him forth before you, and specially before thee, king Agrippa, that the examination having been made, I may have something to write;
27. for it doth seem to me irrational, sending a prisoner, not also to signify the charges against him.'
