Acts 28:19 in Context — Acts 28
17 E aconteceu que, três dias depois, Paulo chamou juntos os chefes dos judeus; e ao se reunirem, disse-lhes: Homens irmãos, tendo eu nada feito contra o povo, ou contra os costumes dos pais, [mesmo assim] eu vim preso desde Jerusalém, entregue em mãos dos romanos.
18 Os quais, tendo me investigado, queriam [me] soltar, por não haver em mim nenhum crime de morte.
19 Mas os judeus, dizendo em contrário, eu fui forçado a apelar a César; [mas] não como que eu tenha que acusar a minha nação.
20 Então por esta causa eu vos chamei até mim, para [vos] ver e falar; porque pela esperança de Israel eu estou agora preso nesta corrente.
21 Mas eles lhe disseram: Nós nem recebemos cartas da Judeia relacionadas a ti, nem algum dos irmãos, tendo vindo aqui, tem nos informado ou falado de ti algum mal.
