Acts 22:22 Context
20And when þe blood of thy martyr Steuen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting vnto his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew him. 21And he said vnto me, Depart: for I will send thee farre hence, vnto the Gentiles. 22And they gaue him audience vnto this word, and then lift vp their voices, and said, Away with such a fellow from the earth: for it is not fit that he should liue. 23And as they cried out, and cast off their clothes, & threw dust into the aire, 24The chiefe captaine commanded him to be brought into the castle, and bade that hee should be examined by scourging: that he might know wherfore they cried so against him.
