12 And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, neither exciting the people to sedition, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city:
13 Neither can they prove the things of which they now accuse me.
14 But this I confess to thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so I worship the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets:
15 And have hope towards God, which they themselves also allow, that there will be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
16 And in this I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offense towards God, and towards men.
17 Now after many years, I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings.
18 Upon which certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, neither with multitude, nor with tumult.
