22:1-21 Paul’s premier defense of his life and faith before his own people in Jerusalem illustrates his flexibility as a missionary, just as his speech to the Greek philosophers in Athens had done (17:22-31; see 1 Cor 9:20-23). Paul begins by recognizing his kinship with his people, explaining his Jewish background and training under the noted rabbi Gamaliel the Elder and describing his zealous desire to honor God in everything, which they shared (Acts 22:1-3). Paul then describes his persecution of Christians (22:4-5), the revelation of Jesus to him on the way to Damascus (22:6-10), and his conversion (22:11-16). Paul ends his speech by describing his conversation with the Lord in the Temple. The Lord had predicted the Jews’ rejection of the message and had sent Paul to the Gentiles (22:17-21).

If it would be clearer in your language, you could translate this so that there is not a quotation within a quotation. Alternate translation: “I told him that when the blood of Stephen his witness was spilled, I myself was also standing by and agreeing and guarding the outer garments of the ones killing him”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ἐξεχύννετο τὸ αἷμα Στεφάνου τοῦ μάρτυρός σου
/was_being/_poured_out the blood ˱of˲_Stephen the witness ˱of˲_you
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you need to say who did the action, recall from chapter 7 that it was the enemies of Stephen. Alternate translation: “the enemies of Stephen your witness spilled his blood”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
ἐξεχύννετο τὸ αἷμα Στεφάνου τοῦ μάρτυρός σου
/was_being/_poured_out the blood ˱of˲_Stephen the witness ˱of˲_you
Paul is referring to Stephen’s death by association with the way his blood was spilled when his enemies killed him. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “the enemies of Stephen your witness killed him”
