Acts 26:9-11

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁹ “So then, ^(A)I thought to myself that I had to do many things hostile to ^(B)the name of Jesus of Nazareth. ¹⁰ And this is ^[a]just what I ^(C)did in Jerusalem; not only did I lock up many of the ^[b]saints in prisons, having ^(D)received authority from the chief priests, but also when they were being put to death I ^(E)cast my vote against them. ¹¹ And ^(F)as I punished them often in all the synagogues, I tried to force them to blaspheme; and being ^(G)furiously enraged at them, I kept pursuing them ^(H)even to ^[c]foreign cities.
