Acts 24:11-21
-
11 Because that thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem for to worship.
-
12 And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, neither raising up the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city:
-
13 Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me.
-
14 But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets:
-
15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
-
16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men.
-
17 Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings.
-
18 Whereupon certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, neither with multitude, nor with tumult.
-
19 Who ought to have been here before thee, and object, if they had ought against me.
-
20 Or else let these same here say, if they have found any evil doing in me, while I stood before the council,
-
21 Except it be for this one voice, that I cried standing among them, Touching the resurrection of the dead I am called in question by you this day.
