Assim diz o SENHOR: O céu é o meu trono, e a terra o escabelo dos meus pés; que casa me edificaríeis vós? E qual seria o lugar do meu descanso? Porque a minha mão fez todas estas coisas, e assim todas elas foram feitas, diz o SENHOR; mas para esse olharei, para o pobre e abatido de espírito, e que treme da minha palavra. [Isaías 66: 1-2]

| Acts: 25 |
|---|
| 1. Three days after Festus arrived in Caesarea to take over his new responsibilities, he left for Jerusalem, |
| 2. where the leading priests and other Jewish leaders met with him and made their accusations against Paul. |
| 3. They asked Festus as a favor to transfer Paul to Jerusalem. (Their plan was to waylay and kill him.) |
| 4. But Festus replied that Paul was at Caesarea and he himself would be returning there soon. |
| 5. So he said, "Those of you in authority can return with me. If Paul has done anything wrong, you can make your accusations." |
| 6. Eight or ten days later he returned to Caesarea, and on the following day Paul's trial began. |
| 7. On Paul's arrival in court, the Jewish leaders from Jerusalem gathered around and made many serious accusations they couldn't prove. |
| 8. Paul denied the charges. "I am not guilty," he said. "I have committed no crime against the Jewish laws or the Temple or the Roman government." |
| 9. Then Festus, wanting to please the Jews, asked him, "Are you willing to go to Jerusalem and stand trial before me there?" |
| 10. But Paul replied, "No! This is the official Roman court, so I ought to be tried right here. You know very well I am not guilty. |
| 11. If I have done something worthy of death, I don't refuse to die. But if I am innocent, neither you nor anyone else has a right to turn me over to these men to kill me. I appeal to Caesar!" |
| 12. Festus conferred with his advisers and then replied, "Very well! You have appealed to Caesar, and to Caesar you shall go!" |
| 13. A few days later King Agrippa arrived with his sister, Bernice, to pay their respects to Festus. |
| 14. During their stay of several days, Festus discussed Paul's case with the king. "There is a prisoner here," he told him, "whose case was left for me by Felix. |
| 15. When I was in Jerusalem, the leading priests and other Jewish leaders pressed charges against him and asked me to sentence him. |
| 16. Of course, I quickly pointed out to them that Roman law does not convict people without a trial. They are given an opportunity to defend themselves face to face with their accusers. |
| 17. "When they came here for the trial, I called the case the very next day and ordered Paul brought in. |
| 18. But the accusations made against him weren't at all what I expected. |
| 19. It was something about their religion and about someone called Jesus who died, but whom Paul insists is alive. |
| 20. I was perplexed as to how to conduct an investigation of this kind, and I asked him whether he would be willing to stand trial on these charges in Jerusalem. |
| 21. But Paul appealed to the emperor. So I ordered him back to jail until I could arrange to send him to Caesar." |
| 22. "I'd like to hear the man myself," Agrippa said. And Festus replied, "You shall--tomorrow!" |
| 23. So the next day Agrippa and Bernice arrived at the auditorium with great pomp, accompanied by military officers and prominent men of the city. Festus ordered that Paul be brought in. |
| 24. Then Festus said, "King Agrippa and all present, this is the man whose death is demanded both by the local Jews and by those in Jerusalem. |
| 25. But in my opinion he has done nothing worthy of death. However, he appealed his case to the emperor, and I decided to send him. |
| 26. But what shall I write the emperor? For there is no real charge against him. So I have brought him before all of you, and especially you, King Agrippa, so that after we examine him, I might have something to write. |
| 27. For it doesn't seem reasonable to send a prisoner to the emperor without specifying the charges against him!" |
