26 Claude Lysias au très excellent gouverneur Félix, salut!

27 Cet homme, dont les Juifs s’étaient saisis, allait être tué par eux, lorsque je survins avec des soldats et le leur enlevai, ayant appris qu’il était Romain.

28 Voulant connaître le motif pour lequel ils l’accusaient, je l’amenai devant leur sanhédrin.

29 J’ai trouvé qu’il était accusé au sujet de questions relatives à leur loi, mais qu’il n’avait commis aucun crime qui mérite la mort ou la prison.

30 Informé que les Juifs lui dressaient des embûches, je te l’ai aussitôt envoyé, en faisant savoir à ses accusateurs qu’ils eussent à s’adresser eux-mêmes à toi. Adieu.
