Acts 28:19 in Context — Acts 28
17 Au bout de trois jours, Paul convoqua les principaux des Juifs; et, quand ils furent réunis, il leur adressa ces paroles: Hommes frères, sans avoir rien fait contre le peuple ni contre les coutumes de nos pères, j’ai été mis en prison à Jérusalem et livré de là entre les mains des Romains.
18 Après m’avoir interrogé, ils voulaient me relâcher, parce qu’il n’y avait en moi rien qui méritât la mort.
19 Mais les Juifs s’y opposèrent, et j’ai été forcé d’en appeler à César, n’ayant du reste aucun dessein d’accuser ma nation.
20 Voilà pourquoi j’ai demandé à vous voir et à vous parler; car c’est à cause de l’espérance d’Israël que je porte cette chaîne.
21 Ils lui répondirent: Nous n’avons reçu de Judée aucune lettre à ton sujet, et il n’est venu aucun frère qui ait rapporté ou dit du mal de toi.
