¹⁴'And I confess this to thee, that, according to the way that they call a sect, so serve I the God of the fathers, believing all things that in the law and the prophets have been written,

¹⁵having hope toward God, which they themselves also wait for, that there is about to be a rising again of the dead, both of righteous and unrighteous;

¹⁶and in this I do exercise myself, to have a conscience void of offence toward God and men always.

¹⁷'And after many years I came, about to do kind acts to my nation, and offerings,

¹⁸in which certain Jews from Asia did find me purified in the temple, not with multitude, nor with tumult,

¹⁹whom it behoveth to be present before thee, and to accuse, if they had anything against me,

²⁰or let these same say if they found any unrighteousness in me in my standing before the sanhedrim,
