Acts 24:2-4

New Century Version

² Paul was called into the meeting, and Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, “Most Excellent Felix! Our people enjoy much peace because of you, and many wrong things in our country are being made right through your wise help. ³ We accept these things always and in every place, and we are thankful for them. ⁴ But not wanting to take any more of your time, I beg you to be kind and listen to our few words.
