Deeds (Act) of Apostles 22:12-20

¹²And a man, Ananias, that by the law had (the) witnessing of all (the) Jews dwelling in Damascus, (And a man, Ananias, who lived by the Law, and received good testimony from all the Jews living in Damascus,)

¹³came to me, and stood nigh, and said to me, Saul, brother, behold. And I in the same hour beheld into him (or And at that very moment I saw him).

¹⁴And he said, (The) God of our fathers hath before-ordained thee, that thou shouldest know the will of him, and shouldest see the rightful man, that is, (the) just Christ, and hear the voice of his mouth.

¹⁵For thou shalt be his witness to all men, of those things that thou hast seen and heard.

¹⁶And now, what dwellest thou? (or And now, why waitest thou?) Rise up, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, by the name of him called to help, or Rise up, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, (and) in-call the name of him.

¹⁷And it was done to me, as I turned again into Jerusalem (or after I returned to Jerusalem), and prayed in the temple, that I was made in (a) ravishing of (the) soul,

¹⁸and I saw him saying to me, Hie thou, and go out fast of Jerusalem, for they shall not receive thy witnessing of me. (and I saw him saying to me, Haste thou, and quickly go out of Jerusalem, for they shall not accept thy testimony about me.)

¹⁹And I said, Lord, they know, that I was (en)closing together in prison, and beating by synagogues them that believed into thee or and beating by synagogues them that believed in thee. (And I said, Lord, they know, that I was enclosing in prison, and beating in the synagogues, those who believed in thee.)

²⁰And when the blood of Stephen, thy witness, was shed out, I stood nigh, and consented, and kept the clothes of (the) men that slew him.
