Acts 26:19-23

19 "Therefore, O King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to ¹the heavenly vision,

20 but declared first ²to those in Damascus, ³then in Jerusalem and throughout all the region of Judea, and also ⁴to the Gentiles, that they should ⁵repent and ⁶turn to God, performing deeds ⁷in keeping with their repentance.

21 For this reason ⁸the Jews seized me in the temple and tried to kill me.

22 ⁹To this day I have had the help that comes from God, and so ¹⁰I stand here testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what ¹¹the prophets and Moses said would come to pass:

23 ¹²that the Christ ¹³must suffer and that, ¹⁴by being the first ¹⁵to rise from the dead, ¹⁶he would proclaim ¹⁷light both to our people and to the Gentiles."
