Acts 22:14-21

Sawyer(i) 14 And he said, The God of our fathers chose you to know his will, and to see the Righteous One, and hear the voice of his mouth, 15 for you shall be a witness for him to all men of what you have seen and heard. 16 And now, why do you delay? Arising, baptize and wash away your sins, calling on his name. 17 (20:8) And when I returned to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple, I was in a trance, 18 and saw him [Christ], saying to me, Hasten and depart immediately from Jerusalem, for they will not receive your testimony of me. 19 And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in the synagogues those who believed on you; 20 and when the blood of your martyr Stephen was poured out, I also stood by and consented, and kept the clothes of those that killed him. 21 And he said to me, Go, for I will send you to nations far away.
