Acts 28:18-20

21st Century King James Version

¹⁸ who, when they had examined me, would have let me go because there was no cause deserving of death in me.

¹⁹ But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar, not that I had anything to accuse my nation of.

²⁰ For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see you and to speak with you, because it is for the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain.”
