Psalm 16:8-11
New American Standard Bible
8 (A)I have (B)set the Lord continually before me;
Because He is (C)at my right hand, (D)I will not be shaken.
9 Therefore (E)my heart is glad and (F)my glory rejoices;
My flesh also will (G)dwell securely.
10 For You (H)will not abandon my soul to [a]Sheol;
You will not [b](I)allow Your [c]Holy One to [d]undergo decay.
11 You will make known to me (J)the way of life;
In (K)Your presence is fullness of joy;
In Your right hand there are (L)pleasures forever.

Acts 26:22-32
New American Standard Bible
22 So, having obtained help from God, I stand to this day (A)testifying both to small and great, stating nothing but what (B)the Prophets and Moses said was going to take place, 23 as to (C)whether the [a]Christ was [b]to suffer, and whether, as (D)first from the resurrection of the dead, He would proclaim (E)light both to the Jewish people and to the Gentiles.”
24 While [c]Paul was stating these things in his defense, Festus *said in a loud voice, “Paul, you are out of your mind! [d]Your great (F)learning is [e]driving you insane.” 25 But Paul *said, “I am not insane, (G)most excellent Festus; on the contrary, I am speaking out with [f]truthful and rational words. 26 For the king [g](H)knows about these matters, and I also speak to him with confidence, since I am persuaded that none of these things escape his notice; for this has not been done in a [h]corner. 27 King Agrippa, do you believe the Prophets? I know that you believe.” 28 Agrippa replied to Paul, “[i]In a short time you are going to persuade me to [j]make a (I)Christian of myself.” 29 And Paul said, “I would [k]wish to God that even [l]in a short or long time not only you, but also all who hear me this day would become such as I myself am, except for these (J)chains.”
30 (K)The king stood up and the governor and Bernice, and those who were sitting with them, 31 and when they had gone out, they began talking to one another, saying, “(L)This man is not doing anything deserving death or [m]imprisonment.” 32 And Agrippa said to Festus, “This man could have been (M)set free if he had not (N)appealed to Caesar.”

New International Version
22 But God has helped me to this very day; so I stand here and testify to small and great alike. I am saying nothing beyond what the prophets and Moses said would happen(A)— 23 that the Messiah would suffer(B) and, as the first to rise from the dead,(C) would bring the message of light to his own people and to the Gentiles.”(D)
24 At this point Festus interrupted Paul’s defense. “You are out of your mind,(E) Paul!” he shouted. “Your great learning(F) is driving you insane.”
25 “I am not insane, most excellent(G) Festus,” Paul replied. “What I am saying is true and reasonable. 26 The king is familiar with these things,(H) and I can speak freely to him. I am convinced that none of this has escaped his notice, because it was not done in a corner. 27 King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know you do.”
28 Then Agrippa said to Paul, “Do you think that in such a short time you can persuade me to be a Christian?”(I)
29 Paul replied, “Short time or long—I pray to God that not only you but all who are listening to me today may become what I am, except for these chains.”(J)
30 The king rose, and with him the governor and Bernice(K) and those sitting with them. 31 After they left the room, they began saying to one another, “This man is not doing anything that deserves death or imprisonment.”(L)
32 Agrippa said to Festus, “This man could have been set free(M) if he had not appealed to Caesar.”(N)
