“Let them therefore”, he said, “that are in power among you go down with me, and if there is anything wrong in the man, let them accuse him.”

Context

2Then the high priest and the principal men of the Jews informed him against Paul, and they begged him,
3asking a favor against him, that he would summon him to Jerusalem; plotting to kill him on the way.
4However Festus answered that Paul should be kept in custody at Caesarea, and that he himself was about to depart shortly.
5“Let them therefore”, he said, “that are in power among you go down with me, and if there is anything wrong in the man, let them accuse him.”
6When he had stayed among them more than ten days, he went down to Caesarea, and on the next day he sat on the judgment seat, and commanded Paul to be brought.
7When he had come, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing against him many and grievous charges which they could not prove,
8while he said in his defense, “Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar, have I sinned at all.”
