And herein do I exercise myself to have always a conscience void of offense toward God and toward men.
Herein I also exercise myself to have a conscience void of offence toward God and men always.
In view of this, I also do my best and strive always to have a clear conscience before God and before men.
Therefore I always exercise and discipline myself [mortifying my body, deadening my carnal affections, bodily appetites, and worldly desires, endeavoring in all respects] to have a clear (unshaken, blameless) conscience, void of offense toward God and toward men.

While Tertullus was speaking the Jews kept joining in, asserting that these were the facts. Then Paul, at a nod from the governor made his reply: “I am well aware that you have been governor of this nation for many years, and I can therefore make my defence with every confidence. You can easily verify the fact that it is not more than twelve days ago that I went up to worship at Jerusalem. I was never found either arguing with anyone in the Temple or gathering a crowd, either in the synagogues or in the open air. These men are quite unable to prove the charges they are now making against me. I will freely admit to you, however, that I do worship the God of our fathers according to the Way which they call a heresy, although in fact I believe in the scriptural authority of both the Law and the Prophets. I have the same hope in God which they themselves hold, that there is to be a resurrection of both good men and bad. With this hope before me I do my utmost to live my whole life with a clear conscience before God and man.
And for this reason do I exercise myself to have always a conscience void of offense toward God and toward men.
And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void to offence toward God, and toward men.

Because of this, I try with all my strength to always maintain a clear conscience before God and man.
“Believe me, I do my level best to keep a clear conscience before God and my neighbors in everything I do. I’ve been out of the country for a number of years and now I’m back. While I was away, I took up a collection for the poor and brought that with me, along with offerings for the Temple. It was while making those offerings that they found me quietly at my prayers in the Temple. There was no crowd, there was no disturbance. It was some Jews from around Ephesus who started all this trouble. And you’ll notice they’re not here today. They’re cowards, too cowardly to accuse me in front of you.
In this do I always strive to have a clear conscience toward God and toward men.
In view of this · I do my best to have a clear conscience toward · God and · men at all times.
With this belief I always do my best to have a clear conscience in the sight of God and people.
