Acts 22:14-21 And he said to me, 'The God of our forefathers has appointed you to know His will and to see the Righteous One i.e., Jesus, and to hear His voice speaking to you.

AUV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁴ And he said [to me], 'The God of our forefathers has appointed you to know His will and to see the Righteous One [i.e., Jesus], and to hear His voice [speaking to you]. ¹⁵ For you will be His witness to all people of what you have seen and heard. ¹⁶ So now, what are you waiting for? Get up and be immersed [into Christ], and have your sins washed away as you appeal to His name [i.e., to Christ's authority].' ¹⁷ "And it happened that when I returned to Jerusalem and was praying in the Temple, I fell into a trance [i.e., a semi-conscious vision-like state]. ¹⁸ And I saw [and heard] the Lord saying to me, 'Hurry up, get out of Jerusalem quickly, because the people [here] will reject your testimony about me.' ¹⁹ And I replied, 'Lord, they know very well that I am [the one] who imprisoned and beat the believers [who assembled] in every synagogue, ²⁰ and when your witness Stephen was killed, I stood there, approving [of it] and [even] guarding the clothing of those who stoned him to death.' ²¹ Then the Lord said to me, 'Go, for I will send you far away from here to the Gentiles.'
