17 After three days [a]Paul called together those who were (B)the leading men of the Jews, and when they came together, he began saying to them, “(C)Brethren, (D)though I had done nothing against our people or (E)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 (F)examined me, they (G)were willing to release me because there was (H)no ground [c]for putting me to death.
