‏ Acts 25:25

 But I found ( εγω δε κατελαβομην ). Second aorist middle of  καταλαμβανω, to lay hold of, to grasp, to comprehend as in 4:13; 10:34.

 That he had committed nothing worthy of death ( μηδεν αξιον αυτον θανατου πεπραχενα ). Perfect active infinitive of  πρασσω in indirect assertion with negative  μη and accusative  αυτον of general reference, the usual idiom. Verse 25 repeats the statement in verse 21, perhaps for the benefit of the assembled dignitaries.
