Acts 24:10-21

Sawyer(i) 10 (22:2) And the procurator making a sign to him to speak, Paul answered, Knowing that you have been for many years a judge of this nation, I shall defend myself cheerfully, 11 you being able to know that it is not more than twelve days since I went up to worship at Jerusalem. 12 And they did not find me in the temple disputing with any one, or making a disturbance of the multitude, neither in the synagogues nor in the city; 13 neither can they prove the things of which they now accuse me. 14 (22:3) But this I confess to you, that in the way which they call a heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers; believing all things written in the law and the prophets, 15 having a hope in God which they also hold, that there will be a resurrection both of the righteous and wicked. 16 And in this also I endeavor always to have a conscience without offense towards God and man. 17 (22:4) But after many years I came to bring charities and offerings to my nation, 18 in which certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, not with a multitude, nor with a tumult, 19 who ought to be present and accuse me before you, if they have any thing against me. 20 Or let them say whether they found any unrighteousness in me when I stood before the Sanhedrim, 21 except in this one statement which I made, as I stood among them, that I am under trial by you to-day concerning the resurrection of the dead.
