Acts 9:1-14

1But SaulG4569, stillG2089 breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciplesG3101 of the LordG2962, cameG4334 to the highG749 priestG749

2and askedG154 of him lettersG1992 to DamascusG1154, to the synagoguesG4864, so that if he foundG2147 any who wereG1510 of the wayG3598, both menG435 and womenG1135, he might bringG71 [them] boundG1210 to JerusalemG2419.

3But as he was journeyingG4198, it cameG1096 to passG1096 that he drew near to DamascusG1154; and suddenlyG1810 there shone round about him a lightG5457 out of heavenG3772,

4and fallingG4098 on the earthG1093 he heardG191 a voiceG5456 sayingG3004 to him, SaulG4549, SaulG4549, whyG5101 dost thou persecuteG1377 me?

5And he saidG3004, Who art thou, LordG2962? And he [saidG3004], I amG1510 JesusG2424, whom thou persecutest.

6But riseG450 up and enterG1525 into the cityG4172, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.

7But the menG435 who were travelling with him stoodG2476 speechless, hearingG191 the voiceG5456 but beholding no oneG3367.

8And SaulG4569 roseG1453 up from the earthG1093, and his eyesG3788 being openedG455 he sawG991 no oneG3762. But leading [him] by the hand they broughtG1521 him into DamascusG1154.

9And he wasG1510 threeG5140 daysG2250 without seeingG991, and neither ateG2068 nor drankG4095.

10And there wasG1510 a certainG5100 discipleG3101 in DamascusG1154 by nameG3686 AnaniasG367. And the LordG2962 saidG3004 to him in a visionG3705, AnaniasG367. And he saidG3004, BeholdG2400, [here amG1510] I, LordG2962.

11And the LordG2962 [said] to him, RiseG450 up and goG4198 into the streetG4505 which is calledG2564 StraightG2117, and seekG2212 in the houseG3614 of JudasG2455 oneG3588 by nameG3686 SaulG4569, [he is] of TarsusG5018: for, beholdG2400, he is prayingG4336,

12and has seenG3708 [in a visionG3705] a manG435 by nameG3686 AnaniasG367 comingG1525 in and putting his handG5495 on him, so that he should seeG3708.

13And AnaniasG367 answeredG611, LordG2962, I have heardG191 from manyG4183 concerningG4012 this manG435 howG3745 muchG4183 evilG2556 he has done to thy saintsG40 at JerusalemG2419;

14and hereG5602 he has authorityG1849 from the chiefG749 priestsG749 to bindG1210 all who callG1941 upon thy nameG3686.
