Passage: Acts 22:14-21 (RSV)


Acts 22


14And he said, `The God of our fathers appointed you to know his will, to see the Just One and to hear a voice from his mouth;
15for you will be a witness for him to all men of what you have seen and heard.
16And now why do you wait? Rise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on his name.'
17"When I had returned to Jerusalem and was praying in the temple, I fell into a trance
18and saw him saying to me, `Make haste and get quickly out of Jerusalem, because they will not accept your testimony about me.'
19And I said, `Lord, they themselves know that in every synagogue I imprisoned and beat those who believed in thee.
20And when the blood of Stephen thy witness was shed, I also was standing by and approving, and keeping the garments of those who killed him.'
21And he said to me, `Depart; for I will send you far away to the Gentiles.'"
