Acts 26:6

And now I stand, and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God unto our fathers:

And now I stand here before thee, and am judged for maintaining the accomplishing of that blessed hope, which our fathers conceived, from those clear promises, made by God unto them, of that Messiah, which he would send, and now hath sent into the world; as also for averring that assured hope of our Resurrection from the dead:
