Acts 25:1-3

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

25 Now when Festus had entered into his own province, after three days he went up from Caesarea to Jerusalem.

² And [there] the chief priests and the principal men of the Jews laid charges before him against Paul, and they kept begging and urging him,

³ Asking as a favor that he would have him brought to Jerusalem; [meanwhile] they were planning an ambush to slay him on the way.
