Acts 26:9-14
9So thenG3767G3303, IG1473 too was convinced thatG1380 I oughtG1163 to doG4238 allG4183 I could to opposeG1727 theG3588 nameG3686 of JesusG2424 of NazarethG3480. 10AndG2532 that is whatG3739 I didG4160 inG1722 JerusalemG2414. WithG2983 authorityG1849 fromG3844 theG3588 chief priestsG749 IG1473 putG2623 manyG4183 of theG3588 saintsG40 inG1722 prisonG5438, andG5037 when theyG846 were condemned to deathG337, I cast my vote againstG2702G5586 them. 11I frequently had them punishedG4178G846G5097 inG2596 theG3588 synagoguesG4864, and I tried to makeG315 them blasphemeG987. In my raging furyG1693G4057 against themG846, I evenG2532 went toG1519 foreignG1854 citiesG4172 to persecuteG1377 them.
12InG1722 thisG3739 pursuit I was on my wayG4198 toG1519 DamascusG1154 withG3326 the authorityG1849 andG2532 commissionG2011 ofG3588 theG3588 chief priestsG749. 13About noonG3319G2250, O kingG935, as I was onG2596 theG3588 roadG3598, I sawG3708 a lightG5457 from heavenG3771G5228, brighter thanG2987 theG3588 sunG2246, shining aroundG4034 meG1473 andG2532 my companionsG3588G4198G4862G1473. 14WeG1473 allG3956 fellG2667 toG1519 theG3588 groundG1093, and I heardG191 a voiceG5456 sayG3004 toG4314 meG1473 inG3588 HebrewG1446G1258,1 ‘SaulG4549, SaulG4549, whyG5101 do you persecuteG1377 MeG1473? It is hardG4642 for youG4771 to kickG2979 againstG4314 the goadsG2759.’
