Acts 23:6

English Standard Version

6 Now when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, “Brothers, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees. It is with respect to the hope and the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial.” (Mt 22:23; Ac 2:26; Ac 24:15; Ac 24:21; Ac 26:5; Ac 26:6; Ac 28:20; Php 3:5; Col 1:5) 

New International Version

6 Then Paul, knowing that some of them were Sadducees and the others Pharisees, called out in the Sanhedrin, ‘My brothers, I am a Pharisee, descended from Pharisees. I stand on trial because of the hope of the resurrection of the dead.’ 

New International Reader’s Version

6 Paul knew that some of them were Sadducees and the others were Pharisees. So he called out to the members of the Sanhedrin. ‘My brothers’, he said, ‘I am a Pharisee. I come from a family of Pharisees. I believe that people will rise from the dead. That’s why I am on trial.’ 

King James Version

6 But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.
