11 If, on the one hand, I am really a wrongdoer+ and have committed anything deserving of death,+ I do not beg off from dying; if, on the other hand, none of those things exists of which these [men] accuse me, no man can hand me over to them as a favor. I appeal to Caesar!”+

21 But when Paul appealed+ to be kept for the decision by the August One,* I commanded him to be kept until I should send him on up to Caesar.”

19 But when the Jews kept speaking against it, I was compelled to appeal+ to Caesar,* but not as though I had anything of which to accuse my nation.
