Acts 28:17-19

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁷ After three days ^[a]Paul called together those who were ^(A)the leading men of the Jews, and when they came together, he began saying to them, “^(B)Brethren, ^(C)though I had done nothing against our people or ^(D)the customs of our ^[b]fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans. ¹⁸ And when they had ^(E)examined me, they ^(F)were willing to release me because there was ^(G)no ground ^[c]for putting me to death. ¹⁹ But when the Jews ^[d]objected, I was forced to ^(H)appeal to Caesar, not that I had any accusation against my nation.
