Acts 28:20-22

Contemporary English Version

²⁰ I am bound by these chains because of what we people of Israel hope for. This is why I have called you here to talk about this hope of ours.

²¹ The leaders replied, “No one from Judea has written us a letter about you. And not one of them has come here to report on you or to say anything against you. ²² But we would like to hear what you have to say. We understand that people everywhere are against this new group.”
