1“1BrethrenG435G80 and fathersG3962, hearG191 my defenseG627 which I nowG3570 offer to you.”
2And when they heardG191 that he was addressingG4377 them in the 23HebrewG1446 dialectG1258, they becameG3930 even moreG3123 quietG2271; and he saidG5346,
3“4I amG1510 5a JewG2453, bornG1080 in 6TarsusG5019 of 7CiliciaG2791, but broughtG397 up in thisG3778 cityG4172, educatedG3811 8underG3844G3588G4228 9GamalielG1059, 1011strictlyG195 accordingG2596 to the lawG3551 of our fathersG3971, beingG5225 zealousG2207 for GodG2316 justG2531 as 12you allG3956 are todayG4594. 413I persecutedG1377 thisG3778 14WayG3598 to the deathG2288, bindingG1195 and puttingG3860 bothG5037 menG435 and womenG1135 into prisonsG5438, 5as alsoG2532 15the highG749 priestG749 and allG3956 16the CouncilG4244 of the eldersG4244 17can testifyG3140. From them I alsoG2532 18receivedG1209 lettersG1992 to 19the brethrenG80, and startedG4198 off for 20DamascusG1154 in order to bringG71 evenG2532 thoseG3588 who were thereG1566 to JerusalemG2419 21as prisonersG1210 to be punishedG5097.
