Acts 22:16-18

Contemporary English Version

¹⁶ What are you waiting for? Get up! Be baptized, and wash away your sins by praying to the Lord.”

¹⁷ After this I returned to Jerusalem and went to the temple to pray. There I had a vision ¹⁸ of the Lord who said to me, “Hurry and leave Jerusalem! The people won't listen to what you say about me.”
