13. These people cannot even prove their accusations to you.
14. But I’ll admit to you that I’m a follower of the way ⌊of Christ⌋, which they call a sect. This means that I serve our ancestors’ God and believe everything written in Moses’ Teachings and the Prophets.
15. I hope for the same thing my accusers do, that people with God’s approval and those without it will come back to life.
16. With this belief I always do my best to have a clear conscience in the sight of God and people.
17. After many years I have come back to my people and brought gifts for the poor and offerings ⌊for God⌋.
