Acts 22:4-16

4AndG3739 I persecutedG1377 thisG3778 wayG3588G3598 untoG891 the deathG2288, bindingG1195 andG2532 deliveringG3860 intoG1519 prisonsG5438 bothG5037 menG435 andG2532 womenG1135.

5AsG5613 alsoG2532 the high priestG3588G749 doth bearG3140 meG1473 witnessG3140, andG2532 allG3956 the estate of the eldersG3588G4244: fromG3844 whomG3739 alsoG2532 I receivedG1209 lettersG1992 untoG4314 the brethrenG3588G80, and wentG4198 toG1519 DamascusG1154, to bringG71 themG3588 which wereG1510 thereG1566 boundG1210 untoG1519 JerusalemG2419, forG2443 to be punishedG5097.

6AndG1161 it came to pass, thatG1096, as IG1473 made my journeyG4198, andG2532 was come nighG1448 unto DamascusG3588G1154 aboutG4012 noonG3314, suddenlyG1810 there shoneG4015 fromG1537 heavenG3588G3772 a greatG2425 lightG5457 round aboutG4012 meG1473.

7AndG5037 I fellG4098 untoG1519 the groundG3588G1475, andG2532 heardG191 a voiceG5456 sayingG3004 unto meG1473, SaulG4549, SaulG4549, whyG5101 persecutest thouG1377 meG1473?

8AndG1161 IG1473 answeredG611, WhoG5101 art thouG1510, LordG2962? AndG5037 he saidG3004 untoG4314 meG1473, IG1473 amG1510 JesusG2424 of NazarethG3588G3480, whomG3739 thouG4771 persecutestG1377.

9AndG1161 theyG3588 that wereG1510 withG4862 meG1473 sawG2300 indeedG3303 the lightG5457, andG2532 wereG1096 afraidG1719; butG1161 they heardG191 notG3756 the voiceG5456 of himG3588 that spakeG2980 to meG1473.

10AndG1161 I saidG3004, WhatG5101 shall I doG4160, LordG2962? AndG1161 the LordG2962 saidG3004 untoG4314 meG1473, AriseG450, and goG4198 intoG1519 DamascusG1154; and thereG2546 it shall be toldG2980 theeG4771 ofG4012 all thingsG3956 whichG3739 are appointedG5021 for theeG4771 to doG4160.

11AndG1161 whenG5613 I couldG1689 notG3756 seeG1689 forG575 the gloryG3588G1391 of thatG1565 lightG3588G5457, being led by the handG5496 ofG5259 themG3588 that were withG4895 meG1473, I cameG2064 intoG1519 DamascusG1154.

12AndG1161 oneG5100 AnaniasG367, a devoutG2152 manG435 according toG2596 the lawG3588G3551, having a good reportG3140 ofG5259 allG3956 the JewsG2453 which dweltG2730 there,

13CameG2064 untoG4314 meG1473, andG2532 stoodG2186, and saidG3004 unto meG1473, BrotherG80 SaulG4549, receive thy sightG308. AndG2504 the sameG846 hourG3588G5610 IG2504 looked upG308 uponG1519 himG846.

14AndG1161 he saidG3004, The GodG3588G2316 of ourG1473 fathersG3588G3962 hath chosenG4400 theeG4771, that thou shouldest knowG1097 hisG846 willG3588G2307, andG2532 seeG3708 thatG3588 Just OneG1342, andG2532 shouldest hearG191 the voiceG5456 ofG1537 hisG846 mouthG3588G4750.

15ForG3754 thou shalt beG1510 hisG846 witnessG3144 untoG4314 allG3956 menG444 of whatG3739 thou hast seenG3708 andG2532 heardG191.

16AndG2532 nowG3568 whyG5101 tarriest thouG3195? ariseG450, and be baptizedG907, andG2532 wash awayG628 thyG4771 sinsG3588G266, calling onG1941 the nameG3588G3686 of the LordG3588G2962.
