Acts 25:16-18

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹⁶I answered them that it is not the Roman custom to give someone up^[a] before the accused faces the accusers and has an opportunity for a defence against the charges.^(A) ¹⁷So when they had assembled here, I did not delay. The next day I took my seat at the tribunal and ordered the man to be brought in. ¹⁸The accusers stood up but brought no charge against him of the evils I was expecting.
