Acts 22:20 in Context — Acts 22
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.
19 Et je dis: Seigneur, ils savent eux-mêmes que je faisais mettre en prison et battre de verges dans les synagogues ceux qui croyaient en toi, et que,
20 lorsqu’on répandit le sang d’Étienne, ton témoin, j’étais moi-même présent, joignant mon approbation à celle des autres, et gardant les vêtements de ceux qui le faisaient mourir.
21 Alors il me dit: Va,je t’enverrai au loin vers les nations…
22 Ils l’écoutèrent jusqu’à cette parole. Mais alors ils élevèrent la voix, disant: Ote de la terre un pareil homme! Il n’est pas digne de vivre.
