Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations
ὁ & Φῆστος ἀπεκρίθη, τηρεῖσθαι τὸν Παῦλον εἰς Καισάρειαν, ἑαυτὸν δὲ μέλλειν ἐν τάχει ἐκπορεύεσθαι
¬which & Festus answered /to_be_being/_kept ¬the Paul in Caesarea himself and /to_be/_going in quickness /to_be/_going_out
It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: “Festus answered, ‘Paul is being held at Caesarea but I myself am about to depart soon’”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
τηρεῖσθαι τὸν Παῦλον
/to_be_being/_kept ¬the Paul
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “he was holding Paul”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐκπορεύεσθαι
/to_be/_going_out
Festus means implicitly that he is about to depart from Jerusalem and travel to Caesarea. You can provide this information in your translation if that would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: “to depart Jerusalem for Caesarea”
