4“Many HYP of my fellow Jews know about how I have conducted my life, from the time I was a child. They know how I lived in the area where I was born and also later in Jerusalem.
5They have known for many years, and they could tell you, if they wanted to, that since I was very young I obeyed the customs of our religion very carefully, just like the other Pharisees do.
6Today I am being put on trial { they are putting me on trial} because I am confidently expecting that God will do what he promised our (exc) ancestors.
7Our twelve tribes are also confidently waiting for God to do for us what he promised, as they respectfully worship him, day and night. Respected king, I confidently expect that God will do what he promised, and they also believe that! But that is the reason that these Jewish leaders SYN are accusing me!
8They believe that God can cause those who have died to become alive again, so ◄why do any of you refuse to believe that he raised Jesus from the dead?/none of you should refuse to believe that he raised Jesus from the dead!► RHQ”
9“ Formerly I, too, was sure that I should do everything that I could to oppose Jesus MTY, the man from Nazareth town.
