3 especially acquainted being thee of all of the among Jews customs and also questions. Therefore I entreat thee, patiently to hear of me.
4 The indeed therefore mode of life of me that from youth, that from beginning being among the nation of me in Jerusalem, know all the Jews;
5 previously knowing me from the first, (if they would be willing to testify,) that according to the most rigid sect of the our religion I lived a Pharisee.
6 And now for hope of that to the fathers promise being made by the God, I have stood being judged;
7 to which the twelve tribes of us, in intently night and day serving, hopes to attain; concerning which hope I am accused, O king Agrippa, by Jews.

10 Which also I did in Jerusalem; and many of the saints I in prisons shut up, the from of the high-priests authority having received; being killed and of them, I brought against a vote;
11 and in all the synagogues often publishing them, I was compelling to blaspheme; exceedingly and being furious towards them, I purchased till even into the foreign cities.
