THE ACCUSATION OF TERTULLUS AGAINST PAULOS
And after five days Hanan Yah the archpriest descends with the elders and with some orator named Tertullus who manifests to the governor against Paulos. 2 And when he is called, Tertullus begins to accuse him, wording, Seeing that through you we obtain vast shalom, and that by your provision very worthy deeds become this goyim, 3 we receive it every way and everywhere, most powerful Phelix, with all eucharist. 4 But so that I hinder you no more, I beseech you, in your gentleness, to hear us concisely. 5 For we find this man pestilent and stirring riot among all the Yah Hudiym throughout the world, and a prime officer of the heresy of the Nazarenes: 6 who also tested to profane the priestal precinct: whom we overpowered and willed to judge according to our torah. 7 But chiliarch Lysias passed by, and with much violence, took him from our hands, 8 summoning his accusers to come to you: who, by your examining, can know about all these whereof we accuse him. 9 - and the Yah Hudiym also covenant, professing that these are thus. 10
PAULOS PLEADS TO PHELIX
And after the governor nods to him to word, Paulos answers, I understand that for many years you have been a judge to this goyim, I plead the more cheerfully concerning myself: 11 because you can know that there are yet no more than twelve days from my ascending to Yeru Shalem to worship: 12 and they neither found me in the priestal precinct reasoning with anyone, nor making the multitude conspire - neither in the synagogues nor in the city: 13 neither can they present those about which they now accuse me.
