Acts 22:18 CPDV

¹⁶  And now, why do you delay? Rise up, and be baptized, and wash away your sins, by invoking his name.'

¹⁷  Then it happened that, when I returned to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple, a mental stupor came over me,

¹⁸  and I saw him saying to me: 'Hurry! Depart quickly from Jerusalem! For they will not accept your testimony about me.'

¹⁹  And I said: 'Lord, they know that I am beating and enclosing in prison, throughout every synagogue, those who have believed in you.

²⁰  And when the blood of your witness Stephen was poured out, I stood nearby and was consenting, and I watched over the garments of those who put him to death.'
