22 New English Bible (New Testament) Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

17'After my return to Jerusalem, I was praying in the is temple when I fell into a trancePaul Sent to the Gentiles Ac.22.17-21Ἐγένετο δέ μοι ὑποστρέψαντι εἰς Ἰερουσαλὴμ καὶ προσευχομένου μου ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ γενέσθαι με ἐν ἐκστάσει
18and saw him there, speaking to me. "Make haste", he said, "and leave Jerusalem without delay, for they will not accept your testimony about me." καὶ ἰδεῖν αὐτὸν λέγοντά μοι, Σπεῦσον καὶ ἐξελθε ἐν τάχει ἐξ Ἰερουσαλήμ, διότι οὐ παραδέξονταί σου μαρτυρίαν περὶ ἐμοῦ.
19"Lord," I said, "they know that I imprisoned those who believe in thee, and flogged them in every synagogue; κἀγὼ εἶπον, Κύριε, αὐτοὶ ἐπίστανται ὅτι ἐγὼ ἠμην φυλακίζων καὶ δέρων κατὰ τὰς συναγωγὰς τοὺς πιστεύοντας ἐπὶ σέ·
20and when the blood of Stephen thy witness was shed I stood by, approving, and I looked after the clothes of those who killed him." καὶ ὅτε ἐξεχύννετο τὸ αἷμα Στεφάνου τοῦ μάρτυρός σου, καὶ αὐτὸς ἠμην Ἔφεστὼς καὶ συνευδοκῶν καὶ φυλάσσων τὰ ἱμάτια τῶν ἀναιρούντων αὐτόν.
21But he said to me, "Go, for I am sending you far away to the Gentiles." '
 καὶ εἶπεν πρός με, Πορεύου, ὅτι ἐγὼ εἰς ἐθνη μακρὰν ἐξαποστελῶ σε.
