Acts 26:5-7

New Catholic Bible

⁵ They have known about me from my youth, and they could testify, if they were willing, that I belonged to the strictest sect of our religion and lived as a Pharisee. ⁶ But now I am on trial because of my hope in the promise made by God to our ancestors.

⁷ “Our twelve tribes worship night and day with intense devotion in the hope of seeing its fulfillment. It is because of this hope that I am accused by the Jews, O king.
