Deuteronomy 32:19 - 32:28

32:19 Then Yahweh saw, and he spurned them, because of the provocation of his sons and his daughters.
32:20 So he said, ‘I will hide my face from them; I will see what will be their end, for they are a generation of perversity, children in whom there is no faithfulness.
32:21 They annoyed me with what is not a god; they provoked me with their idols. So I will make them jealous with those not a people, with a foolish nation I will provoke them.
32:22 For a fire was kindled by my anger, and it burned up to the depths of Sheol, and it devoured the earth and its produce, and it set afire the foundation of the mountains.
32:23 I will heap disasters upon them; my arrows I will spend on them.
32:24 They will become weakened by famine, and consumed by plague and bitter pestilence; and the teeth of wild animals I will send against them, with the poison of the creeping things in the dust;
32:25 From outside her boundaries the sword will make her childless, and from inside, terror; both for the young man and also the young woman, the infant along with the gray-headed man.
32:26 I thought, “I will wipe them out; I will make people forget they ever existed.”
32:27 If I had not feared a provocation of the enemy, lest their foes might misunderstand, lest they should say, “Our hand is triumphant, and Yahweh did not do all this.”’
32:28 For they are a nation void of sense, and there is not any understanding in them.

Gospel — Acts 25:1 - 25:12

LEB translation

Acts 25:1 - 25:12

25:1 Paul Appeals to Caesar Now when Festus set foot in the province, after three days he went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea.
25:2 And the chief priests and the most prominent men of the Jews brought charges against Paul to him, and were urging him,
25:3 asking for a favor against him, that he summon him to Jerusalem, because they were preparing an ambush to do away with him along the way.
25:4 Then Festus replied that Paul was being kept at Caesarea, and he himself was about to go there in a short time.
25:5 So he said, “Let those among you who are prominent go down with me, and if there is any wrong in the man, let them bring charges against him.”
25:6 And after he had stayed among them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea. On the next day he sat down on the judgment seat and gave orders for Paul to be brought.
25:7 And when he arrived, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing many and serious charges that they were not able to prove,
25:8 while Paul said in his defense, “Neither against the law of the Jews nor against the temple nor against Caesar have I sinned with reference to anything!”
25:9 But Festus, because he wanted to do a favor for the Jews, answered and said to Paul, “Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem to be tried before me there concerning these things?”
25:10 But Paul said, “I am standing before the judgment seat of Caesar, where it is necessary for me to be judged. I have done no wrong to the Jews, as you also know very well.
25:11 If then I am doing wrong 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!”
25:12 Then Festus, after discussing this with his council, replied, “You have appealed to Caesar—to Caesar you will go!”
