← Acts 28:20	Acts 28:21 (KJV)	Acts 28:22 →
For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see [you], and to speak with [you]: because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.	And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judaea concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came shewed or spake any harm of thee.	But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.
