28. Agrippa asked Paul, “In such a short time do you think you can talk me into being a Christian?”
29. Paul answered, “Whether it takes a short time or a long time, I wish you and everyone else who hears me today would become just like me! Except, of course, for these chains.”
30. Then King Agrippa, Governor Festus, Bernice, and everyone who was with them got up.
31. But before they left, they said, “This man isn't guilty of anything. He doesn't deserve to die or to be put in jail.”
32. Agrippa told Festus, “Paul could have been set free, if he had not asked to be tried by the Roman Emperor.”
