Acts 28:17-20
17AfterG3326 threeG5140 daysG2250 1Paul calledG4779 togetherG4779 thoseG3588 who were 2the leadingG4413 menG4413 of the JewsG2453, and when they cameG4905 togetherG4905, he began sayingG3004 to them, “3BrothersG435G80, 4though I had doneG4160 nothingG3762 againstG1727 our peopleG2992 orG2228 5the customsG1485 of our 6fathersG3971, yet I was handedG3860G5495 overG3860 to the RomansG4514 as a prisonerG1198 from JerusalemG2414.
18And when they had 7examinedG350 me, they 8were willingG1014 to releaseG630 me becauseG1223 there were 9noG3367 groundsG156 10for putting me to deathG2288.
19But when the JewsG2453 11objectedG483, I was forcedG315 to 12appealG1941 toG1941 CaesarG2541, not that I hadG2192 anyG5100 accusationG2723 againstG2723 my nationG1484.
20For thisG3778 reasonG156, thereforeG3767, I 13requestedG3870 to seeG3708 you and to speakG4354 with you, sinceG1063 I am wearingG4029 14thisG3778 chainG254 for 15the sakeG1752 of the hopeG1680 of IsraelG2474.”
