1 But Saul, still breathing threats and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest Acts 9:1WEB
2 and asked for letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. Acts 9:2WEB
3 As he traveled, he got close to Damascus, and suddenly a light from the sky shone around him. Acts 9:3WEB
4 He fell on the earth, and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” Acts 9:4WEB
5 He said, “Who are you, Lord?” The Lord said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. Acts 9:5WEB
6 But rise up and enter into the city, then you will be told what you must do.” Acts 9:6WEB
7 The men who traveled with him stood speechless, hearing the sound, but seeing no one. Acts 9:7WEB
8 Saul arose from the ground, and when his eyes were opened, he saw no one. They led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus. Acts 9:8WEB
9 He was without sight for three days, and neither ate nor drank. Acts 9:9WEB
10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias!” He said, “Behold, it’s me, Lord.” Acts 9:10WEB
11 The Lord said to him, “Arise and go to the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judah for one named Saul, a man of Tarsus. For behold, he is praying, Acts 9:11WEB
12 and in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias coming in and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight.” Acts 9:12WEB
13 But Ananias answered, “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your saints at Jerusalem. Acts 9:13WEB
14 Here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name.” Acts 9:14WEB
15 But the Lord said to him, “Go your way, for he is my chosen vessel to bear my name before the nations and kings, and the children of Israel. Acts 9:15WEB
16 For I will show him how many things he must suffer for my name’s sake.” Acts 9:16WEB
17 Ananias departed and entered into the house. Laying his hands on him, he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord, who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me that you may receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.” Acts 9:17WEB
18 Immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he received his sight. He arose and was baptized. Acts 9:18WEB
19 He took food and was strengthened. Saul stayed several days with the disciples who were at Damascus. Acts 9:19WEB
20 Immediately in the synagogues he proclaimed the Christ, that he is the Son of God. Acts 9:20WEB
21 All who heard him were amazed, and said, “Isn’t this he who in Jerusalem made havoc of those who called on this name? And he had come here intending to bring them bound before the chief priests!” Acts 9:21WEB
22 But Saul increased more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus, proving that this is the Christ. Acts 9:22WEB
23 When many days were fulfilled, the Jews conspired together to kill him, Acts 9:23WEB
