Acts 28:18-20

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁸ who, when they had examined me, would have let me go because there was no cause of death in me.

¹⁹ But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar, not that I had anything to accuse my nation of.

²⁰ For this cause therefore I have called for you, to see you and to speak with you: because for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.
