9:1. Saul, as yet, breathing out threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest

9:2. and asked of him letters to Damascus, to the synagogues: that if he found any men and women of this Way, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.

'''9:3. As he went on his journey, it came to pass that he drew near to Damascus. And suddenly a light from heaven shone round about him.'''

9:4. Falling on the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?

'''9:5. Saul said, “Who are you, Lord?” He said, “I am Jesus whom you persecute. It is hard for you to kick against the goad.”'''

9:6. Saul, trembling and astonished, said, “Lord, what will you have me to do?”

'''9:7. The Lord said to him, “Arise and go into the city; and there it shall be told what you must do. Now the men who went in company with Saul stood amazed, hearing indeed a voice but seeing no man.'''

'''9:8. Saul arose from the ground: and when his eyes were opened, he saw nothing. But they, leading him by the hands, brought him to Damascus.'''

9:9. He was there three days without sight: and he did not eat or drink.

'''9:10. Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias.” He said, “Behold I am here, Lord.”'''

'''9:11. The Lord said to him, “Arise and go into the street that is called Straight and seek in the house of Judas, one named Saul of Tarsus. For behold he is praying,'''

9:12. and he has seen a man named Ananias coming in and putting his hands upon him, that he might receive his sight.

'''9:17. Ananias went his way and entered into the house. Laying his hands upon him, he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus has sent me. He that appeared to you on the road as you came, that you may receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”'''

'''9:18. Immediately, scales fell from his eyes: and he received his sight. Rising up, he was baptized.'''

'''9:19. When he had taken meat, he was strengthened. He was with the disciples that were at Damascus, for some days.'''

9:20. Immediately he preached Jesus in the synagogues, that He is the Son of God.
