Acts 28:18-20

New International Reader's Version

¹⁸ They questioned me. And they wanted to let me go. They saw I wasn’t guilty of any crime worthy of death. ¹⁹ But the Jews objected, so I had to make an appeal to Caesar. I certainly did not mean to bring any charge against my own people. ²⁰ I share Israel’s hope. That is why I am held with this chain. So I have asked to see you and talk with you.”
