Kisah Para Rasul 24:17-27

24:17 After several years ¹  I came to bring to my people gifts for the poor ²  and to present offerings, ³  24:18 which I was doing when they found me in the temple, ritually purified, ⁴  without a crowd or a disturbance. ⁵  24:19 But there are some Jews from the province of Asia ⁶  who should be here before you and bring charges, ⁷  if they have anything against me. 24:20 Or these men here ⁸  should tell what crime ⁹  they found me guilty of ¹⁰  when I stood before the council, ¹¹  24:21 other than ¹²  this one thing ¹³  I shouted out while I stood before ¹⁴  them: ‘I am on trial before you today concerning the resurrection of the dead.’” ¹⁵ 

24:22 Then Felix, ¹⁶  who understood the facts ¹⁷  concerning the Way ¹⁸  more accurately, ¹⁹  adjourned their hearing, ²⁰  saying, “When Lysias the commanding officer comes down, I will decide your case.” ²¹  24:23 He ordered the centurion ²²  to guard Paul, ²³  but to let him have some freedom, ²⁴  and not to prevent any of his friends ²⁵  from meeting his needs. ²⁶ 

Paul Speaks Repeatedly to Felix

24:24 Some days later, when Felix ²⁷  arrived with his wife Drusilla, ²⁸  who was Jewish, he sent for Paul and heard him speak ²⁹  about faith in Christ Jesus. ³⁰  24:25 While Paul ³¹  was discussing ³²  righteousness, self-control, ³³  and the coming judgment, Felix ³⁴  became ³⁵  frightened and said, “Go away for now, and when I have an opportunity, ³⁶  I will send for you.” 24:26 At the same time he was also hoping that Paul would give him money, ³⁷  and for this reason he sent for Paul ³⁸  as often as possible ³⁹  and talked ⁴⁰  with him. 24:27 After two years ⁴¹  had passed, Porcius Festus ⁴²  succeeded Felix, ⁴³  and because he wanted to do the Jews a favor, Felix left Paul in prison. ⁴⁴
