Acts 24:11-17 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

11. As you can verify, not more than twelve days have passed since I went up to Jerusalem to worship.

12. Neither in the temple, nor in the synagogues, nor anywhere in the city did they find me arguing with anyone or instigating a riot among the people.

13. Nor can they prove to you the accusations they are now making against me.

14. But this I do admit to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I worship the God of our ancestors and I believe everything that is in accordance with the law and written in the prophets.

15. I have the same hope in God as they themselves have that there will be a resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous.

16. Because of this, I always strive to keep my conscience clear before God and man.

17. After many years, I came to bring alms for my nation and offerings.
