Acts 9:10-16

10NowG1161 there was a discipleG3101 in 1DamascusG1154 namedG3686 2AnaniasG367; and the LordG2962 saidG3004 to him in 3a visionG3705, “AnaniasG367.” And he saidG3004, “HereG2400 I am, LordG2962.”

11And the LordG2962 said to him, “GetG450 upG450 and goG4198 to the streetG4505 calledG2564 StraightG2117, and inquireG2212 at the houseG3614 of JudasG2455 for a manG5018 fromG5018 4TarsusG5018 namedG3686 SaulG4569, for he is prayingG4336,

12and he has seenG3708 5in a visionG3705 a manG435 namedG3686 AnaniasG367 comeG1525 inG1525 and 6layG2007 his handsG5495 onG2007 him, soG3704 thatG3704 he might regainG308 his sightG308.”

13But AnaniasG367 answeredG611, “LordG2962, I have heardG191 from manyG4183 peopleG4183 aboutG4012 thisG3778 manG435, 7howG3745 muchG3745 harmG2556 he didG4160 to 8Your 9saintsG40 in JerusalemG2419;

14and hereG5602 he 10hasG2192 authorityG1849 from the chiefG749 priestsG749 to 11arrestG1210 allG3956 who 12callG1941 onG1941 Your nameG3686.”

15But the LordG2962 saidG3004 to him, “GoG4198, for 13he is a chosenG1589 14instrumentG4632 of MineG1473, to bearG941 My nameG3686 beforeG1799 15the GentilesG1484 and 16kingsG935 and the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2474;

16for 17I will showG5263 him howG3745 muchG3745 he mustG1163 sufferG3958 inG5228 behalfG5228 of My nameG3686.”
