Acts 22:4-19

4who have persecutedG1377 this wayG3598 unto deathG2288, binding and deliveringG3860 up to prisonsG5438 both menG435 and womenG1135;

5as alsoG2532 the highG749 priestG749 bears me witnessG3140, and all the elderhood: from whom alsoG2532, having receivedG1209 lettersG1992 to the brethren, I wentG4198 to DamascusG1154 to bringG71 those alsoG2532 who wereG1510 there, boundG1210, to JerusalemG2419, to beG1510 punished.

6And it cameG1096 to passG1096, as I was journeyingG4198 and drawingG1448 near to DamascusG1154, that, about mid-day, there suddenlyG1810 shone out of heavenG3772 a great lightG5457 round about me.

7And I fellG4098 to the ground, and heardG191 a voiceG5456 sayingG3004 to me, SaulG4549, SaulG4549, whyG5101 persecutest thou me?

8And I answeredG611, Who art thou, LordG2962? And he saidG3004 to me, I amG1510 JesusG2424 the Nazaraean, whom thou persecutest.

9But they that wereG1510 with me beheld the lightG5457, [and wereG1510 filled with fear], but heardG191 not the voiceG5456 of him that wasG1510 speakingG2980 to me.

10And I saidG3004, What shall I do, LordG2962? And the LordG2962 saidG3004 to me, RiseG450 up, and goG4198 to DamascusG1154, and there it shall be toldG3004 thee of all thingsG3956 which it is appointed thee to do.

11And as I could not seeG1689, through the gloryG1391 of that lightG5457, being led by the hand of those who were with me, I cameG2064 to DamascusG1154.

12And a certainG5100 AnaniasG367, a pious manG435 accordingG2596 to the lawG3551, borne witnessG3140 to by all the JewsG2453 who dwelt [there],

13comingG2064 to me and standing by me, saidG3004 to me, BrotherG80 SaulG4549, receiveG308 thy sightG308. And I, in the sameG846 hourG5610, receivedG308 my sightG308 and saw him.

14And he saidG3004, The 1GodG2316 of our fathersG3962 has chosen thee beforehand to knowG1097 his will, and to seeG3708 the justG1342 oneG3588, and to hearG191 a voiceG5456 out of his mouthG4750;

15for thou shalt beG1510 a witnessG3144 for him to all menG444 of what thou hast seenG3708 and heardG191.

16And nowG3568 whyG5101 lingerest thou? AriseG450 and get baptised, and have thy sinsG266 washed awayG630, callingG1941 on his nameG3686.

17And it cameG1096 to passG1096 when I had returnedG5290 to JerusalemG2419, and as I was prayingG4336 in the temple, that I becameG1096 in ecstasy,

18and sawG3708 him sayingG3004 to me, Make haste and goG1831 quickly out of JerusalemG2419, for they will not receiveG3858 thy testimonyG3141 concerningG4012 me.

19And I saidG3004, LordG2962, they themselves knowG1987 that I wasG1510 imprisoning and beatingG1194 in every synagogueG4864 those that believeG4100 on thee;
