Acts 23:9

Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
And there arose a great cry: and the scribes that were of the Pharisees’ part arose, and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

The whole place erupted — people were shouting everywhere. The religious teachers who were Pharisees jumped up and started arguing hard for Paul, saying, 'We don't see anything wrong with this guy. What if a spirit or an angel actually did speak to him? We don't want to end up fighting against God.'

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Even Paul's enemies had to admit — maybe God really was behind what he was doing.
