Wherefore, O King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision; but I declared both to those in Damascus first, and in Jerusalem, and through all the region of Judea, and to the gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance. On account of these things, Jews, seizing me in the temple, were attempting to kill me.

And Paul answered, the governor having beckoned to him to speak: "Knowing that you, for many years, have been a judge to this nation, cheerfully do I make defense as to the things concerning myself; since you are able clearly to know that there are not more than twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem to worship; and neither in the temple did they find me disputing with any one, or causing a stirring up of a multitude, nor in the synagogues, nor in the city; read more.
nor are they able to prove to you the things of which they are now accusing me. But I confess this to you, that, according to the Way which they call 'heresy,' so I worship the God of our fathers, believing all those things, which are according to the law, and which have been written in the prophets; having hope toward God??hich these themselves also are looking for??hat there will be a resurrection, both of the righteous and unrighteous. In this I myself also am striving always to have a conscience void of offense toward God and men. Now, after many years, I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings; amidst which they found me purified in the temple, neither with a multitude, nor with a tumult; but there were certain Jews from Asia, who ought to be present before you and accuse me, if they have anything against me.

And now, for the hope of the promise made by God to our fathers, I have taken my stand to be judged; unto which promise our twelve-tribed nation, earnestly serving day and night, is hoping to attain; concerning which hope, O King, I am being accused by Jews. Why is it judged incredible with you, if God doth raise the dead? I, verily, therefore, imagined to myself that it was proper that I should do many things contrary to the name of Jesus, the Nazarene; which also I did in Jerusalem; and many of the saints also did I shut up in prison, having received authority from the high priests; and, when they were being put to death, I have given a vote against them; and, punishing them often throughout all the synagogues, I was compelling them to blaspheme; and, being exceedingly enraged against them, I was persecuting them even unto foreign cities. Meanwhile as I was journeying to Damascus, with authority and a commission from the high priests, at midday, O King, I saw, in the way, a light from Heaven above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and those journeying with me.
