ACTS 24:11-19

¹¹seeing that thou canst take knowledge, that it is not more than twelve days since I went up to worship at Jerusalem:

¹²and neither in the temple did they find me disputing with any man or stirring up a crowd, nor in the synagogues, nor in the city.

¹³Neither can they prove to thee the things whereof they now accuse me.

¹⁴But this I confess unto thee, that after the Way which they call a sect, so serve I the God of our fathers, believing all things which are according to the law, and which are written in the prophets:

¹⁵having hope toward God, which these also themselves look for, that there shall be a resurrection both of the just and unjust.

¹⁶Herein do I also exercise myself to have a conscience void of offence toward God and men alway.

¹⁷Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings:

¹⁸amidst which they found me purified in the temple, with no crowd, nor yet with tumult: but there were certain Jews from Asia—

¹⁹who ought to have been here before thee, and to make accusation, if they had aught against me.
