Acts 26:4-8

English Standard Version

^4 (A)“My manner of life from my youth, spent from the beginning among ^(B)my own nation and in Jerusalem, is known by all the Jews. ⁵ They have known for a long time, if they are willing to testify, that ^(C)according to the strictest ^(D)party of our ^(E)religion I have lived as ^(F)a Pharisee. ⁶ And now I stand here on trial because of my hope in ^(G)the promise made by God to our fathers, ^7 (H)to which ^(I)our twelve tribes hope to ^(J)attain, as they earnestly worship night and day. And for this hope ^(K)I am accused by Jews, O king! ⁸ Why is it thought ^(L)incredible by any of you that God raises the dead?
