Acts 9:1-4
11Now 2Saul, still 3breathing 4threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
2and asked for 5letters from him to 6the synagogues in 7Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to 89the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them in shackles to Jerusalem.
3Now as he was traveling, it happened that he was approaching Damascus, and 10suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him;
4and 11he fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?”
