Acts 9:13-21

13But AnaniasG367 answeredG611, “LordG2962, I have heardG191 from manyG4183 aboutG4012 thisG3778 manG435, 1howG3745 muchG3745 harmG2556 he didG4160 to 2Your 3saintsG40 at JerusalemG2419; 14and hereG5602 he 4hasG2192 authorityG1849 from the chiefG749 priestsG749 to bindG1210 allG3956 who 5callG1941 on Your nameG3686.” 15But the LordG2962 saidG3004 to him, “GoG4198, for 6he is a chosenG1589 7instrumentG4632 of MineG1473, to bearG941 My nameG3686 beforeG1799 8the GentilesG1484 and 9kingsG935 and the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2274; 16for 10I will showG5263 him howG3745 muchG3745 he mustG1163 sufferG3958 for My name’sG3686 sakeG5228.” 17SoG3704 AnaniasG367 departedG565 and enteredG1525 the houseG3614, and after 11layingG2007 his handsG5495 on him saidG3004, “12BrotherG80 SaulG4549, the LordG2962 JesusG2424, who appearedG3708 to you on the roadG3598 by whichG3739 you were comingG2064, has sentG649 me soG3704 that you may regainG308 your sightG308 and be 13filledG4092 with the HolyG40 SpiritG4151.” 18And immediatelyG2112 there fellG634 from his eyesG3788 something likeG5613 scalesG3013, and he regainedG308 his sightG308, and he gotG450 up and was baptizedG907; 19and he tookG2983 foodG5160 and was strengthenedG1765.

NowG1161 14for severalG5100 daysG2250 he was with 15the disciplesG3101 who were at DamascusG1154, 20and immediatelyG2112 he began to proclaimG2784 JesusG2424 16in the synagoguesG4864, 17sayingG3754, “He is 18the SonG5207 of GodG2316.” 21AllG3956 thoseG3588 hearingG191 him continued to be amazedG1839, and were sayingG3004, “Is thisG3778 not he who in JerusalemG2419 19destroyedG4199 thoseG3588 who 20calledG1941 on thisG3778 nameG3686, and who had comeG2064 hereG5602 for the purpose of bringingG71 them boundG1210 beforeG1909 the chiefG749 priestsG749?”
