Acts 13:26-28

Worldwide English (New Testament)

²⁶ `Men and brothers, sons of Abraham, and all of you who worship God, the news of this way to be saved has been sent to us.

²⁷ The people who live in Jerusalem and their rulers did not know who this Jesus really was. They did not understand the words of the prophets of God long ago which were read every Sabbath day. But even so, they did what the prophets had said they would do. They judged him.

²⁸ They could not prove that he did anything wrong for which he should die. Yet they begged Pilate to kill him.
