Acts 22:17-22

17And it came to pass when I had returned to Jerusalem, and as I was praying in the temple, that I became in ecstasy,

18and saw him saying to me, Make haste and go quickly out of Jerusalem, for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.

19And I said, Lord, they themselves know that I was imprisoning and beating in every synagogue those that believe on thee;

20and when the blood of thy witness Stephen was shed, I also myself was standing by and consenting, and kept the clothes of them who killed him.

21And he said to me, Go, for I will send thee to the nations afar off.

22And they heard him until this word, and lifted up their voice, saying, Away with such a one as that from the earth, for it was not fit he should live.
