Acts 28:16-18

Worldwide English (New Testament)

¹⁶ When we came to Rome, Paul was allowed to stay in a house by himself with the soldier who guarded him.

¹⁷ After three days, Paul called for the leaders of the Jews at Rome. When they had come, he said to them, `My brothers, I have done nothing against our people. I have obeyed the laws of our fathers. And yet I was made a prisoner at Jerusalem and was given over to the Romans.

¹⁸ When the Romans judged my case in court, they wanted to let me go free. They said there was no reason to kill me.
