The F.O.G
[11] That night, as Paul sat alone in his cell processing the day's events, the Lord Messiah Himself appeared beside him. With words that brought both comfort and challenge, He said, "Take courage, Paul! Just as you have testified about Me in Jerusalem despite all opposition, you must also testify about Me in Rome."
The F.O.G Paraphrase
And on the following night, the Lord having stood by him, said, ‘Take courage, Paul, for as thou didst fully testify the things concerning me at Jerusalem, so it behoveth thee also at Rome to testify.’
