Acts 25
1 Three days after Festus had arrived in the province he left Caesarea to go to Jerusalem.
ⲁ̅ⲫⲏⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲉⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲡⲁⲣⲭⲓⲁ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲁϣⲟⲙⲛ̅ⲧ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ. ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲑⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲕⲁⲓⲥⲁⲣⲓⲁ.
2 The chief priests and Jewish leaders came to him and brought their charges against Paul.
ⲃ̅ⲛⲓⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲛⲟϭ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲁⲩⲥⲙ̅ⲙⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲁϥ.
3 They begged Festus as a favor to send Paul to Jerusalem, plotting to ambush and kill him on the way.
ⲅ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲁⲩⲥⲉⲡⲥⲱⲡϥ̅. ⲉⲩⲁⲓⲧⲓ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲟⲧϥ̅. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲱϥ ⲉⲑⲓ̅ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ. ⲉⲩⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲕⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ ϩⲓⲧⲉϩⲓⲏ.
4 But Festus replied that Paul was in custody at Caesarea and that he himself would be there shortly.
ⲇ̅ⲫⲏⲥⲧⲟⲥ ϭⲉ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ϫⲉ ⲥⲉϩⲁⲣⲉϩ ⲉⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲕⲁⲓⲥⲁⲣⲓⲁ. ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲇⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϭⲉⲡⲏ ϯⲛⲁⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲙⲁⲩ.
5 “Your leaders can come with me, and make their accusation against this man, if he has done anything wrong,” he told them.
ⲉ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲟⲩⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅. ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲩⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲕⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲣⲓ. ⲉϣϫⲉⲟⲩⲛϩⲱⲃ ⲉϥϩⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲣⲱⲙⲉ.
6 After staying there with them for no more than eight or ten days, Festus returned to Caesarea. The following day he took his seat as judge, and ordered that Paul be brought before him.
ⲋ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲣ̅ⲁϣⲙⲟⲩⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲏ̅ ⲙⲏⲧ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ. ⲁϥⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲕⲁⲓⲥⲁⲣⲓⲁ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲥⲧⲉ ⲉⲡⲃⲏⲙⲁ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲉⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ.
7 When he came in the Jews that had come from Jerusalem surrounded him and brought many serious charges against him that they couldn't prove.
ⲍ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲑⲓ̅ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ. ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲛ̅ϩ̅ⲉⲛⲛⲟϭ ⲛ̅ⲁⲓⲧⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲩϩⲟⲣϣ̅. ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲙⲡⲟⲩϣϭⲙ̅ϭⲟⲙ ⲉⲧⲁϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ
8 Paul defended himself, telling them, “I have not sinned at all against the Jewish law, the Temple, or Caesar.”
ⲏ̅ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲉϩⲏⲧⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲣ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲉⲡⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉ. ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ.
9 But Festus, who was looking to gain favor with the Jews, asked Paul, “Are you willing to go to Jerusalem and be tried before me there about these matters?”
ⲑ̅ⲫⲏⲥⲧⲟⲥ ϭⲉ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲉϯ ⲛⲟⲩⲭⲁⲣⲓⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲛⲉⲕⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲉⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲑⲓ̅ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ ⲉϫⲓϩⲁⲡ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ϩⲓⲱⲧ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲛⲁⲓ̈.
10 “I'm standing before Caesar's court to be tried, right where I should be,” Paul replied. “I have not done any wrong to the Jews, as you very well know.
ⲓ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧ ϩⲓⲡⲃⲏⲙⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲙⲁ ⲉϯⲛⲁϫⲓϩⲁⲡ ϩⲓⲱⲱϥ. ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓϫⲓⲧⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϭⲟⲛⲥ̅ ⲗⲁⲁⲩ. ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ϩⲱⲱⲕ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲕⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ
11 If I've committed a crime and have done something that deserves death, I do not ask to be pardoned from a death sentence. But if there's no substance to these accusations they're making against me, then nobody has the right to hand me over to them. I appeal to Caesar!”
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲉⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲉⲓⲣⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϫⲓⲛϭⲟⲛⲥ̅. ⲏ̅ ⲟⲩϩⲱⲃ ⲉϥⲙ̅ⲡϣⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲟⲩ. ⲛⲉⲓ̈ⲛⲁⲡⲁⲣⲁⲓⲧⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲟⲩ. ⲉϣϫⲉⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲣ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲕⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲣⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧⲟⲩ. ⲙ̅ⲙⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ ⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲉⲭⲁⲣⲓⲍⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ⲛⲁⲩ ϯⲉⲡⲓⲕⲁⲗⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ.
12 Festus then conferred with the council, and replied, “You have appealed to Caesar. To Caesar you shall go!”
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲫⲏⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲉϥⲣⲉϥϫⲓϣⲟϫⲛⲉ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ϫⲉ ⲁⲕⲉⲡⲓⲕⲁⲗⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ. ⲉⲕⲉⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ.
13 Several days later, King Agrippa and his sister Bernice arrived in Caesarea and came to pay their respects to Festus.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉϩⲉⲛϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲩⲉⲓⲛⲉ. ⲁⲅⲣⲓⲡⲡⲁⲥ ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲃⲉⲣⲉⲛⲓⲕⲏ. ⲁⲩⲉⲓ ⲉⲕⲁⲓⲥⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲉⲁⲥⲡⲁⲍⲉ ⲙ̅ⲫⲏⲥⲧⲟⲥ.
14 They were staying some time so Festus presented Paul's case to the king, explaining, “There's a man that Felix left as a prisoner here.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲣ̅ϩⲁϩ ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ. ⲫⲏⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲙⲉⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲉⲫⲱⲃ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲫⲏⲗⲓⲝ ⲕⲁⲁϥ ⲉϥⲙⲏⲣ.
15 When I was in Jerusalem, the Jewish chief priests and leaders came and made accusations against him and asked me to sentence him.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲓⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈-ⲉⲑⲓ̅ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ. ⲁⲩⲥⲙ̅ⲙⲉ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛⲁⲣⲭⲓⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉⲡⲣⲉⲥⲃⲩⲧⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈. ⲉⲩⲁⲓⲧⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲙⲟⲟⲩⲧϥ̅.
16 I replied that it is not according to Roman law to convict anyone without having them face their accusers and giving them the opportunity to defend themselves against the charges.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲁⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲥⲱⲛⲧ̅ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉϩⲣⲱⲙⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲉϯ ⲛⲟⲩⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲩⲕⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲣⲓ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲧⲁⲕⲟϥ. ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲧⲉⲛ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲣⲟⲥ ⲉⲓ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲙⲧⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ⲉⲧⲣⲉϥϭⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ̅ ⲟⲩⲃⲉⲧⲕⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲣⲓⲁ.
17 So when his accusers arrived here, I wasted no time and convened the court the very next day. I ordered the man to be brought in.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲉⲓ ϭⲉ ⲉⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲙⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡⲓⲛⲉϫⲡϩⲱⲃ ⲁⲓ̈ϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲥⲧⲉ ⲉⲡⲃⲏⲙⲁ. ⲁⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲉⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣⲱⲙⲉ.
18 However, when the accusers got up they didn't bring charges of criminal acts as I expected.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩⲁϩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲛ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲣⲟⲥ. ⲙ̅ⲡⲟⲩⲧⲁϩⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ̅ ⲛ̅ϩⲱⲃ ⲉϥϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ. ⲛ̅ⲑⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲥ.
19 Instead they brought up controversies over religious questions, and over a man called Jesus who was dead but whom Paul insisted was alive.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲉⲛⲍⲏⲧⲏⲙⲁ ⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲡⲉⲩϣⲙ̅ϣⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲩⲥⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲉ ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲉⲁϥⲙⲟⲩ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϥⲟⲛϩ̅.
20 Since I was undecided as to how to proceed in investigating such matters, I asked him if he was willing to go to Jerusalem and be tried there.
ⲕ̅ⲉⲓ̈ⲁⲡⲟⲣⲣⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲫⲁⲡ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁϫⲉ. ⲁⲓ̈ϫⲛⲟⲩϥ ϫⲉ ⲉⲛⲉⲕⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲑⲓ̅ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ ⲉϫⲓϩⲁⲡ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲛⲁⲓ̈.
21 However, Paul appealed for his case to be heard by the emperor, so I ordered him detained until I could send him to Caesar.”
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲁⲗⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲁⲣⲉϩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲫⲁⲡ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ. ⲁⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲉϩⲁⲣⲉϩ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϣⲁⲛϯϫⲟⲟⲩϥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ.
22 “I would like to hear the man myself,” Agrippa told Festus. “I'll arrange for you to hear him tomorrow,” Festus replied.
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲁⲅⲣⲓⲡⲡⲁⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲙ̅ⲫⲏⲥⲧⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲱϣ ϩⲱ ⲉⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲣⲱⲙⲉ. ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲣⲁⲥⲧⲉ ⲉⲕⲉⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
23 The next day Agrippa arrived with Bernice in great ceremonial splendor and entered the auditorium with the commanders and leading citizens. Then Festus ordered Paul to be brought in.
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲥⲧⲉ ⲁϥⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲁⲅⲣⲓⲡⲡⲁⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲃⲉⲣⲉⲛⲓⲕⲏ ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲛⲟϭ ⲙ̅ⲫⲁⲛⲧⲁⲥⲓⲁ. ⲁⲩⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲡⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ϯϩⲁⲡ ⲙⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲭⲓⲗⲓⲁⲣⲭⲟⲥ ⲙⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲣⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲟ ⲛ̅ⲧⲡⲟⲗⲓⲥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲉⲫⲏⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲉϩⲥⲁϩⲛⲉ ⲁⲩⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ.
24 “King Agrippa, and everyone who is present here with us,” Festus began, “you see before you this man whom all the Jewish people, both here and in Jerusalem, have complained to me about, shouting that he shouldn't be allowed to live.
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲫⲏⲥⲧⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲅⲣⲓⲡⲡⲁⲥ ⲡⲣ̅ⲣⲟ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲙⲁ. ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲡⲙⲏⲏϣⲉ ⲧⲏⲣϥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓ̈ ⲥⲙ̅ⲙⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲉⲧⲃⲏⲏⲧϥ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲑⲓ̅ⲗ̅ⲏ̅ⲙ. ⲁⲩⲱ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲙⲁ. ⲉⲩⲁϣⲕⲁⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϫⲉ ⲛ̅ϣϣⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉⲱⲛϩ̅ ϫⲓⲛⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ.
25 However, I discovered he has not committed any crime that deserves death, and since he has appealed to the emperor I decided to send him there.

26 But I don't have anything specific to write about him to His Imperial Majesty. That's why I have brought him before you so I can have something definite to write.

27 It doesn't seem fair to me to send on a prisoner without explaining the charges made against him.”
