Acts 26:21-23

New Testament for Everyone

²¹ That is the reason the Jews seized me in the Temple and tried to slaughter me. ²² But I have had help from God, right up to this very day. And so I stand here to bear witness, to small and great alike, of nothing except what the prophets, and Moses too, said would happen: ²³ namely, that the Messiah would suffer, that he would be the first to rise from the dead, and that he would proclaim light to the people and to the nations.”
