14 Il dit: Le Dieu de nos pères t’a destiné à connaître sa volonté, à voir le Juste, et à entendre les paroles de sa bouche;
15 car tu lui serviras de témoin, auprès de tous les hommes, des choses que tu as vues et entendues.
16 Et maintenant, que tardes-tu? Lève-toi, sois baptisé, et lavé de tes péchés, en invoquant le nom du Seigneur.
17 De retour à Jérusalem, comme je priais dans le temple, je fus ravi en extase,
18 et je vis le Seigneur qui me disait: Hâte-toi, et sors promptement de Jérusalem, parce qu’ils ne recevront pas ton témoignage sur moi.
