23And on the morrow, when Agrippa was come, and Bernice, with great pomp, and was entered into the place of hearing, with the chief captains, and principal men of the city, at Festus' commandment Paul was brought forth. (Acts 25:23); Acts 26:3030And when he had thus spoken, the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them: (Acts 26:30)).
