Acts 22:18-21

18and saw him telling me, ‘Hurry and get out of Jerusalem quickly, because they will not accept your testimony about me.’

19“But I said, ‘Lord, they know that in synagogue after synagogue I had those who believed in you imprisoned and beaten.

20And when the blood of your witness Stephen was being shed, I stood there giving approval and guarding the clothes of those who killed him.’

21“He said to me, ‘Go, because I will send you far away to the Gentiles.’”
