Acts 28:18

---

← Acts 28:17	Acts 28:18 (KJV)	Acts 28:19 →
And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men [and] brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.	Who, when they had examined me, would have let [me] go, because there was no cause of death in me.	But when the Jews spake against [it], I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I had ought to accuse my nation of.
