Acts 26:9

In fact, I myself was convinced that it was necessary to do many things in opposition to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

“I myself was convinced that I ought to do many things in opposing the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

“So I thought to myself that I had to act in strong opposition to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

“I too was convinced that I ought to do all that was possible to oppose the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

“Indeed, I myself thought I must do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

“I used to believe that I ought to do everything I could to oppose the very name of Jesus the Nazarene.

“I myself most certainly thought that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.
