Biblical Concordance
| Acts 25:8 | Paul argued in his defense, “Neither against the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) law of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) Jews, nor against the (to | τό | acc sg neut) temple, nor against Caesar have I committed any offense.” |
| Acts 25:9 | But Festus, wanting to curry favor with the (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) Jews, responded to (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) Paul, saying, “Do you want to go up to Jerusalem and there be tried on these charges before me?” |
| Acts 25:10 | Paul answered, “I am now standing before Caesar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be tried. Against the Jews I have done nothing wrong, as you yourself know very well. |
| Acts 25:11 | If then I am a wrongdoer and have done anything worthy of death, I am not trying to escape death; but if there is nothing to their charges against me, no one has a right to turn me over to them. I appeal to Caesar.” |
| Acts 25:12 | Then Festus, after conferring with the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) council, replied, “To Caesar you have appealed; to Caesar you will go.” |
| Acts 25:13 | Now after some days had passed, Agrippa the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) king and Bernice came down to Caesarea and paid their respects to Festus. |
| Acts 25:14 | Since they were staying there several days, Festus laid Paul’s case before the (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) king, saying, “There is a man left by Felix, a prisoner. |
| Acts 25:15 | When I came to Jerusalem, the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) chief priests and the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) elders of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) Jews informed me about him, asking for a guilty verdict against him. |
| Acts 25:16 | I answered them that it was not the custom of the Romans to turn anyone over before the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) accused has met the (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) accusers face to face and had an opportunity to make his defense against the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) charge. |
| Acts 25:17 | So when they met here, I made no delay, but on the (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) next day took my seat on the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) judge’s bench and ordered the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) man to be brought. |
| Acts 25:18 | When the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) accusers stood up, they brought no charge of such evils as I was expecting, |
| Acts 25:19 | but had certain questions about their own religion to put to him and about a certain Jesus, who was dead, whom Paul claimed to be alive. |
| Acts 25:20 | Since I was uncertain about how to investigate such questions, I asked if he wanted to go to Jerusalem to be tried there on these charges. |
| Acts 25:21 | But when Paul had appealed to be kept in custody for the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) decision of the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) emperor, I ordered him to be held until I could send him to Caesar.” |
| Acts 25:22 | Then Agrippa said to Festus, “I too would like to hear the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) man myself.” “Tomorrow,” said he, “you will hear him.” |
| Acts 25:23 | So on the (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) next day when Agrippa and Bernice came with great pomp and entered the (to | τό | acc sg neut) audience hall along with the commanding officers and the (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) prominent men of the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) city, and when Festus had given the order, Paul was brought in. |
| Acts 25:24 | And Festus said, “King Agrippa, and all men present with us, you see this man about whom the (to | τό | nom sg neut) whole Jewish people petitioned me, both in Jerusalem and here, crying out that he ought not to live any longer. |
| Acts 25:25 | But I found that he had done nothing worthy of death; and since he himself appealed to the (ton | τόν | acc sg masc) emperor, I decided to send him. |
| Acts 25:26 | But I do not have anything definite about him to write to my (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) lord. Therefore I have brought him before you all, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that, when the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) examination has been conducted, I may have something to write. |
| Acts 25:27 | For it seems unreasonable to me, in sending a prisoner, not to report the (tas | τάς | acc pl fem) charges against him.” |
| Acts 26:1 | So Agrippa said to Paul, “You have permission to speak for yourself.” Then Paul stretched out his (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) hand and began to make his defense: |
| Acts 26:3 | especially because you are well acquainted with all the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl neut) customs and controversies of the Jews. Therefore I beg you to listen to me patiently. |
| Acts 26:4 | All the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) Jews know my manner of life from my youth, which (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) from the beginning was spent among my own people in Jerusalem, |
| Acts 26:5 | for they have known from the first, if they are willing to go on record, that I lived as a Pharisee according to the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) strictest party of (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) our religious system. |
| Acts 26:6 | And now I stand here on trial because of my hope in the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) promise made by God to our fathers, |
| Acts 26:7 | to which our twelve tribes hope to attain, worshipping strenuously night and day. It is for this hope, your Excellency, that I am being accused by Jews! |
| Acts 26:8 | Why is it thought incredible among you that God raises the dead? |
| Acts 26:9 | I thought to myself that I ought to do many deeds hostile to the (to | τό | acc sg neut) name of Jesus of (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) Nazareth. |
| Acts 26:10 | And I did so in Jerusalem; not only did I lock up in prison many of the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) saints, after receiving authority from the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) chief priests, and when they were put to death I cast my vote against them. |
| Acts 26:11 | And I punished them often in all the (tas | τάς | acc pl fem) synagogues and tried to make them blaspheme; and since I was so vehemently angry at them, I pursued them even to foreign cities. |
| Acts 26:12 | “On one of these journeys I was going to Damascus with authority and commission from (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl masc) chief priests, |
| Acts 26:13 | and at midday I saw on the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) way, O king, a light from heaven, brighter than the (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) sun, that shone around me and those (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) who journeyed with me. |
| Acts 26:14 | And when we had all fallen to the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) Hebrew language, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’ |
| Acts 26:15 | And I said, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ And the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) Lord said, ‘I am Jesus whom you are persecuting. |
| Acts 26:16 | But get up and stand on your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you a servant and witness both to the things in which you have seen and to those in which I will appear to you. |
| Acts 26:17 | I will rescue you from your (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) people and from the (tōn | τῶν | gen pl neut) Gentiles, to whom I am sending you |
| Acts 26:18 | to open their eyes, that (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) they turn from darkness to light, and from the (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) power of (tou | τοῦ | gen sg masc) Satan to God, that (tou | τοῦ | gen sg neut) they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) who are sanctified by faith in me.’ |
| Acts 26:19 | So then, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the (tē | τῇ | dat sg fem) heavenly vision, |
| Acts 26:20 | but I declared to those (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) in Damascus first, then also to those in Jerusalem and through all the (tēn | τήν | acc sg fem) region of (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) Judea, and to the (tois | τοῖς | dat pl neut) Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, performing works worthy of (tēs | τῆς | gen sg fem) repentance. |
| Acts 26:21 | It was for that reason that the Jews seized me in the (tō | τῷ | dat sg neut) temple and tried to kill me. |
| Acts 26:22 | Obtaining help, therefore, from God, until this day I have stood testifying both to small and great, saying nothing beyond what the (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) prophets and Moses said would come to pass: |

| Acts 26:24 | As Paul was saying these things in his defense, Festus said in a loud voice, “You are out of your mind, Paul! Much learning is driving you insane!” |
| Acts 26:25 | But Paul said, “I am not out of my mind, most excellent Festus, but true and rational are the words that I declare. |
| Acts 26:26 | For the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) king knows about these matters, and to him I am speaking boldly, for I am persuaded that none of these things has escaped his notice, for this was not done in a corner. |
| Acts 26:27 | Do you believe, King Agrippa, in the (tois | τοῖς | dat pl masc) prophets? I know that you believe.” |
| Acts 26:28 | Then Agrippa said to Paul, “In too short a time you believe you are making a Christian of me.” |
| Acts 26:29 | Paul replied, “I would to (tō | τῷ | dat sg masc) God that whether the time be short or long, not only you but also all those (tous | τούς | acc pl masc) who are listening to me today would also become as I am, apart for these chains.” |
| Acts 26:30 | Then the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) king stood up, and the (ho | ὁ | nom sg masc) governor and Bernice and those (hoi | οἱ | nom pl masc) sitting with them; |
| Acts 26:31 | and after they had left the room, they spoke to one another, saying, “This man is doing nothing worthy of death or imprisonment.” |
