44:022:017 And it came to pass, that, when I was come again to Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance;
44:022:018 And saw him saying unto me, Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.
44:022:019 And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee:

44:022:021 And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles.
44:022:022 And they gave him audience unto this word, and then lifted up their voices, and said, Away with such a fellow from the earth: for it is not fit that he should live.
44:022:023 And as they cried out, and cast off their clothes, and threw dust into the air,
