11If then I am doing wronga and have done anything deserving death, I am not trying to avoid* dying. But if there is nothing true of the things which these people are accusing me, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar!” 12Then Festus, after* discussing this* with his* council, replied, “You have appealed to Caesar—to Caesar you will go!”
