Festus and Agrippa Respond

Acts 26:24-29

Festus and Agrippa Respond

24
And as he thus answered for himselfe, Festus said with a loude voyce, Paul, thou art besides thy selfe: much learning doeth make thee mad.
25
But he said, I am not mad, O noble Festus, but I speake the wordes of trueth and sobernes.
26
For the King knoweth of these things, before whom also I speake boldly: for I am perswaded that none of these things are hidden from him: for this thing was not done in a corner.
27
O King Agrippa, beleeuest thou the Prophets? I know that thou beleeuest.
28
Then Agrippa said vnto Paul, Almost thou perswadest me to become a Christian.
29
Then Paul sayd, I would to God that not onely thou, but also all that heare me to day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds.
