acts 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

acts 22:16 'And now why do you delay? Arise, and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on His name.'

16. be baptized and wash away thy sins--This way of speaking arises from baptism being the visible seal of remission.
calling on the name of the Lord--rather, "having called," that is, after having done so; referring to the confession of Christ which preceded baptism, as Ac 8:37.

acts 22:16 'And now why do you delay? Arise, and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on His name.'
