The King James Version Bible

Acts 26:9-11

  1. I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

  2. Which thing I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I gave my voice against them.

  3. And I punished them oft in every synagogue, and compelled them to blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even unto strange cities.
