Acts 23:27-29

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁷ I am sending this man to you. The Jews took hold of him and they wanted to kill him. I found out that he is a citizen of Rome. Because of that, I took my soldiers and I saved him from them. ²⁸ The Jews said that he had done some wrong things. I wanted to know what was really true, so I took him to a meeting of their leaders. ²⁹ The Jewish leaders said that he had not obeyed their own laws. But that was all. We could not put him in prison or kill him because of these things. That would not be right.
