Acts 26:8-11
King James Version
8 Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?
9 I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.
10 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.
11 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.

New American Standard Bible
8 Why is it considered incredible among you people (A)if God raises the dead?
9 “So (B)I thought to myself that I had to act in strong opposition to (C)the name of Jesus [a]of Nazareth. 10 And this is [b]just what I (D)did in Jerusalem; not only did I lock up many of the [c]saints in prisons, after (E)receiving authority from the chief priests, but I also (F)cast my vote against them when they were being put to death. 11 And (G)as I punished them often in all the synagogues, I tried to force them to blaspheme; and since I was (H)extremely enraged at them, I kept pursuing them (I)even to [d]foreign cities.
