It happened that, when I had returned to Jerusalem, and while I prayed in the temple, I fell into a trance,
18
and saw him saying to me, `Hurry and get out of Jerusalem quickly, because they will not receive testimony concerning me from you.`
19
I said, `Lord, they themselves know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue those who believed in you.
20
When the blood of Stephen, your witness, was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting to his death, and guarding the cloaks of those who killed him.`
21
He said to me, `Depart, for I will send you forth far from here to the Gentiles.`"
