THE HOLY BIBLE Authorized King James

Acts (Author Luke)

22:14And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.

22:15For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard.

22:16And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

22:17And it came to pass, that, when I was come again to Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance;

22:18And saw him saying unto me, Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.

22:19And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee:

22:20And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew him.

22:21And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles.

26:16But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;

26:17Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee,

26:18To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
