14. But this I confess unto thee, that after the Way which they call a sect, so serve I the God of our fathers, believing all things which are according to the law, and which are written in the prophets:
15. having hope toward God, which these also themselves look for, that there shall be a resurrection both of the just and unjust.
16. Herein do I also exercise myself to have a conscience void of offence toward God and men alway.
17. Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings:
18. amidst which they found me purified in the temple, with no crowd, nor yet with tumult: but there were certain Jews from Asia—
19. who ought to have been here before thee, and to make accusation, if they had aught against me.
20. Or else let these men themselves say what wrong-doing they found, when I stood before the council,
21. except it be for this one voice, that I cried standing among them, Touching the resurrection of the dead I am called in question before you this day.
22. But Felix, having more exact knowledge concerning the Way, deferred them, saying, When Lysias the chief captain shall come down, I will determine your matter.
23. And he gave order to the centurion that he should be kept in charge, and should have indulgence; and not to forbid any of his friends to minister unto him.
24. But after certain days, Felix came with Drusilla, his wife, which was a Jewess, and sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ Jesus.
