1 Paul looked directly at the Sanhedrin and said, “Brothers, I have conducted myself before God in all good conscience to this day. 2 At this, the high priest Ananias ordered those standing near Paul to strike him on the mouth. 3 Then Paul said to him, “God will strike you, you whitewashed wall! You sit here to judge me according to the law, yet you yourself violate the law by commanding that I be struck. 4 But those standing nearby said, “How dare you insult the high priest of God! 5 “Brothers, Paul replied, “ I was not aware that he was the high priest, for it is written: ‘ Do not speak evil about the ruler of your people.’ |
