26 ¹⁹ "Wherefore, O King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision, 26 ²⁰ but declared first to those at Damascus, then at Jerusalem and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God and perform deeds worthy of their repentance. 26 ²¹ For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple and tried to kill me. 26 ²² To this day I have had the help that comes from God, and so I stand here testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would come to pass: 26 ²³ that the Christ must suffer, and that, by being the first to rise from the dead, he would proclaim light both to the people and to the Gentiles."
