Acts 26:3-5

Jubilee Bible 2000

³ especially because I know thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews; therefore, I beseech thee to hear me patiently.

⁴ My manner of life from my youth, which from the beginning was among my own nation at Jerusalem, is known of all the Jews,

⁵ who knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after the most perfect sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.
