Acts 26:24-32

²⁴And as he thus made his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art mad; thy much learning is turning thee mad. ²⁵But he saith, I am not mad, most excellent Festus; but speak forth words of truth and soberness. ²⁶For the king knoweth of these things, unto whom also I speak freely: for I am persuaded that none of these things is hidden from him; for this hath not been done in a corner. ²⁷King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know that thou believest. ²⁸And Agrippa said unto Paul, In a little time thou persuadest me to become a Christian! ²⁹And Paul said, I would to God, that whether in a little time or in much, not thou only, but also all that hear me this day, might become such as I am, except these bonds.³⁰And when he had spoken these things, the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them: ³¹and when they had withdrawn, they spake one to another, saying, This man doeth nothing worthy of death or of bonds. ³²And Agrippa said unto Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed unto Caesar.
