* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.
If, however, I am guilty of anything worthy of death, I do not refuse to die. But if there is no truth to their accusations against me, no one has the right to hand me over to them. I appeal to Caesar!”
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For if I have done wrong, and have committed anything worthy of death, I don’t refuse to die; but if none of those things is true that they accuse me of, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar!”
World English Bible (WEB)
For{G1063} if{G1487}{G3303} I be an offender{G91}{(G5719)}, or{G2532} have committed{G4238}{(G5758)} any thing{G5100} worthy{G514} of death{G2288}, I refuse{G3868}{(G5736)} not{G3756} to die{G599}{(G5629)}: but{G1161} if{G1487} there be{G2076}{(G5748)} none{G3762} of these things{G3739} whereof these{G3778} accuse{G2723}{(G5719)} me{G3450}, no man{G3762} may{G1410}{(G5736)} deliver{G5483}{(G5664)} me{G3165} unto them{G846}. I appeal unto{G1941}{(G5731)} Caesar{G2541}.
Strong's King James
(11) If indeed therefore, I'm a wrongdoer whose committed anything worthy of death, I don't refuse to die! But if nothing of this is true which these accuse me of, nobody can hand me over to them. I call upon Caesar!"
The F.O.G*
[11] If I am guilty of anything deserving death, I do not refuse to die. But if these charges are false, no one has the right to hand me over to them. I appeal to Caesar!"
The F.O.G Paraphrase
for if indeed I am unrighteous, and anything worthy of death have done, I deprecate not to die; and if there is none of the things of which these accuse me, no one is able to make a favour of me to them; to Caesar I appeal!’
