Acts 26:21-23

Contemporary English Version

²¹ That is why some men grabbed me in the temple and tried to kill me. ²² But all this time God has helped me, and I have preached both to the rich and to the poor. I have told them only what the prophets and Moses said would happen. ^23 (A) I told them how the Messiah would suffer and be the first to be raised from death, so he could bring light to his own people and to the Gentiles.
