1 aNow° ISaul°, still° bbreathing° IIthreats° and murder° against° the disciples° of the Lord°, went° to the high° priest°, 2 and asked° for aletters° from him to bthe synagogues° at cDamascus°, so° that if° he found° any° belonging° to dthe Way°, both° men° and women°, he might bring° them bound° to Jerusalem°. 3 As he was traveling°, it happened° that he was approaching° Damascus°, and asuddenly° a light° from heaven° flashed° around° him; 4 and ahe fell° to the ground° and heard° a voice° saying° to him, “Saul°, Saul°, why° are you persecuting° Me?” 5 And he said°, “Who° are You, Lord°?” And He [said], “I am° Jesus° whom° you are persecuting°, 6 but get° up and enter° the city°, and ait will be told° you what°° you must° do°.” 7 The men° who traveled° with him astood° speechless°, bhearing° the Ivoice° but seeing° no° one°. 8 Saul° got° up from the ground°, and athough his eyes° were open°, he Icould see° nothing°; and leading° him by the hand°, they brought° him into bDamascus°. 9 And he was three° days° without° sight°, and neither° ate° nor° drank°.
