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 I also exercise myself to have a conscience void of offence toward God and men always.
17. Now after some 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.
