19 “So den, King Agrippa, A beena do dem ting dat de boice dat come outta heaben een dat wision tell me fa do. 20 Fus A gone an tell de people een Damascus, den een Jerusalem, an den all oba Judea. An A tell de people dat ain Jew too. A tell um all dat dey haffa ton fom dey sin an come ta God. Dey oughta do dem ting dat show dey done ton fom dey sin. 21 Cause ob dat, dem Jew grab hole ta me wen A been dey een God House, an dey try fa kill me. 22 Bot God beena hep me all de time, an eben taday. So den, A da stanop yah an tell all ob oona. A da tell de leetle one dem an de big leada dem.
