1Five days later the high priest Ananias came down with some of the elders and an advocate namedTertul us, and they laid information against Paul before the governor.2Paul was called, and Tertullus opened for the prosecution, 'Your Excel ency, Felix, the unbroken peacewe enjoy and the reforms this nation owes to your foresight3are matters we accept, always and everywhere, with al gratitude.4I do not want to take up too much of your time, but I urge you in your graciousness to give us a briefhearing.5We have found this man a perfect pest; he stirs up trouble among Jews the world over and is aringleader of the Nazarene sect.6He has even attempted to profane the Temple. We placed him under arrest.7'I know that you have administered justice over this nation for many years, and I can therefore speakwith confidence in my defence.8If you ask him you can find out for yourself the truth of al our accusations against this man.'9The Jews supported him, asserting that these were the facts.10When the governor motioned him to speak, Paul answered:11As you can verify for yourself, it is no more than twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem onpilgrimage,12and it is not true that they ever found me arguing with anyone or stirring up the mob, either in theTemple, in the synagogues, or about the town;13neither can they give you any proof of the accusations they are making against me now.14'What I do admit to you is this: it is according to the Way, which they describe as a sect, that I worshipthe God of my ancestors, retaining my belief in al points of the Law and in what is written in the prophets;15and I hold the same hope in God as they do that there will be a resurrection of the upright and thewicked alike.16In these things, I, as much as they, do my best to keep a clear conscience at al times before God andeveryone.17'After several years I came to bring relief-money to my nation and to make offerings;18it was in connection with these that they found me in the Temple; I had been purified, and there wasno crowd involved, and no disturbance.19But some Jews from Asia -- these are the ones who should have appeared before you and accusedme of whatever they had against me.20At least let those who are present say what crime they held against me when I stood before theSanhedrin,21unless it were to do with this single claim, when I stood up among them and cal ed out, "It is about theresurrection of the dead that I am on trial before you today." '22At this, Felix, who was fairly well informed about the Way, adjourned the case, saying, 'When Lysiasthe tribune comes down I will give judgement about your case.'23He then gave orders to the centurion that Paul should be kept under arrest but free from restriction,and that none of his own people should be prevented from seeing to his needs.24Some days later Felix came with his wife Drusilla who was a Jewess. He sent for Paul and gave him ahearing on the subject of faith in Christ Jesus.25But when Paul began to treat of uprightness, self-control and the coming Judgement, Felix took frightand said, 'You may go for the present; I wil send for you when I find it convenient.'26At the same time he had hopes of receiving money from Paul, and for this reason he sent for himfrequently and had talks with him.27When two years came to an end, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus and, being anxious to gainfavour with the Jews, Felix left Paul in custody.
