28:17-20 Conscious that the Good News was to be presented to the Jews first (13:46; Rom 1:16) and concerned that the false charges against him might already have reached Rome, Paul summoned the local Jewish leaders and gave an account of his life and work. He insisted that he was guilty of no criminal offense, but strong Jewish opposition had made it necessary for him to appeal to the emperor. Paul had nothing against his own people; rather, he wanted to explain his great conviction that the Messiah they had been expecting had already come in the person of Jesus of Nazareth.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
τὸ μηδεμίαν αἰτίαν θανάτου ὑπάρχειν ἐν ἐμοί
that not_one cause ˱of˲_death /to_be/_being in me
Paul is referring to a penalty of death by association with death itself. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “I had done nothing to deserve the death penalty”
