Acts 28:19-21

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁹ Because the Jews objected, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar;^(A) even though I had no charge to bring against my people. ²⁰ For this reason I’ve asked to see you and speak to you. In fact, it is for the hope of Israel that I’m wearing this chain.”^(B)

²¹ Then they said to him, “We haven’t received any letters about you from Judea. None of the brothers has come and reported or spoken anything evil about you.
