By examining him, you yourself may know about all these things of which we accuse him. 9 And the Jews also assented, saying that these things were so. 10 But the governor motioning to him to speak, Paul answered; Understanding you as being a judge of this nation many years, I cheerfully defend myself as to the things concerning myself. 11 You can know that it is not more than twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem to worship. 12 And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, nor making a gathering of a crowd; not even in the synagogues, nor throughout the city. 13 Nor can they prove the things of which they now accuse me.
