Acts 24:15-17

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁵ Having [the same] hope in God which these themselves hold and look for, that there is to be a resurrection both of the righteous and the unrighteous (the just and the unjust).

¹⁶ Therefore I always exercise and discipline myself [mortifying my body, deadening my carnal affections, bodily appetites, and worldly desires, endeavoring in all respects] to have a clear (unshaken, blameless) conscience, void of offense toward God and toward men.

¹⁷ Now after several years I came up [to Jerusalem] to bring to my people contributions of charity and offerings.
