17And I will keep you safe from the people, and from the Gentiles, to whom I send you,
18To make their eyes open, turning them from the dark to the light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may have forgiveness of sins and a heritage among those who are made holy by faith in me.
19So, then, King Agrippa, I did not go against the vision from heaven;
20But I went about, first to those in Damascus and Jerusalem, and through all the country of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, preaching a change of heart, so that they, being turned to God, might give, in their works, the fruits of a changed heart.
21For this reason, the Jews took me in the Temple, and made an attempt to put me to death.
22And so, by God's help, I am here today, witnessing to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would come about;
23That the Christ would go through pain, and being the first to come back from the dead, would give light to the people and to the Gentiles.
