KJV ORIGINAL
And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.

✦ MADE SIMPLE
Three days later, Paul called together the main Jewish leaders in Rome. When they showed up, he told them straight up: 'Look, brothers — I didn't do anything wrong against our people or break any of our traditions. But somehow I ended up getting arrested in Jerusalem and handed over to the Romans as a prisoner.'
