Acts 26:9-16

9I indeedG3303 myself thoughtG1380 that I oughtG1163 to do muchG4183 against the nameG3686 of JesusG2424 the Nazaraean.

10Which alsoG2532 I did in JerusalemG2414, and myself shut up in prisonsG5438 manyG4183 of the saintsG40, having receivedG2983 the authorityG1849 from the chiefG749 priestsG749; and when they were put to death I gave my vote.

15And I saidG3004, Who art thou, LordG2962? And the LordG2962 saidG3004, I amG1510 JesusG2424 whom thou persecutest:

16but riseG450 up and standG2476 on thy feetG4228; for, for this purpose have I appeared to thee, to appointG4400 thee to be a servant and a witnessG3144 both of what thou hast seenG3708, and of what I shall appear to thee in,
