¹⁴ He said, ‘The God of our ·ancestors [forefathers; fathers] ·chose [appointed] you long ago to know his ·plan [will; purpose], to see the Righteous One [^CJesus], and to hear ·words [a divine message; ^La voice] from ·him [^Lhis mouth]. ¹⁵ You will be his witness to all people, telling them about what you have seen and heard. ¹⁶ Now, ·why wait any longer [what are you waiting for]? Get up, be baptized, and wash your sins away, ·trusting in him to save you [^Lcalling on his name].’
