A Byzantine alternative to Acts 24:6–8:

⁶ ὃς καὶ τὸ ἱερὸν ἐπείρασεν βεβηλῶσαι· ὃν καὶ ἐκρατήσαμεν· καὶ κατὰ τὸν ἡμέτερον νόμον ἠθελήσαμεν κρῖναι. ⁷ Παρελθὼν δὲ Λυσίας ὁ χιλίαρχος μετὰ πολλῆς βίας ἐκ τῶν χειρῶν ἡμῶν ἀπήγαγεν, ⁸ κελεύσας τοὺς κατηγόρους αὐτοῦ ἔρχεσθαι ἐπὶ ^aσοῦ· παρ’ οὗ δυνήσῃ, αὐτὸς ἀνακρίνας, περὶ πάντων τούτων ἐπιγνῶναι ὧν ἡμεῖς κατηγοροῦμεν αὐτοῦ.

^aσοῦ ¦ σὲ

But Felix, having more exact knowledge concerning the Way, deferred them, saying, “When Lysias, the commanding officer, comes down, I will decide your case.”

And G1161 when G191 Felix G5344 heard G191 these things, G5023 having G1492 more perfect G199 knowledge G1492 of G4012 that way, G3598 he deferred G306 them, G846 and said, G2036 When G3752 Lysias G3079 the G3588 chief captain G5506 shall come down, G2597 I will know the uttermost G1231 of your G5209 G2596 matter. G3588
