Acts 26:5

³  Especially because I know thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.

⁴  My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among mine own nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews;

⁵  Which knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after the most straitest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

⁶  And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God, unto our fathers:

⁷  Unto which promise our twelve tribes, instantly serving God day and night, hope to come. For which hope's sake, king Agrippa, I am accused of the Jews.
