And he trembling and amazed said, Lord, What wilt thou me to do? And the Lord to him, Arise, and come into the city, and it shall be spoken to thee what thou must do. And the men journeying with him stood astonished, hearing the voice truly, and seeing no one. And Saul was raised up from the earth; and his eyes being opened, he saw no one: and leading him by the hand, they brought him to Damascus.

And the Lord to him, Having risen, go thou to the street called Straight, and seek in the house of Judas Saul by name, of Tarsus; for, behold, he prays, And he saw in a vision a man, by name Ananias, coming in, and having put hand upon him, so that he might look up and see again. And Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard from many of this man, how many evils he did to thy holy ones in Jerusalem: And here has he authority from the chief priests to bind all those calling on thy name. And the Lord said to him, Go: for he is a vessel of choice to me, to lift up my name before nations, and kings, and the sons of Israel: For I will show him what he must suffer for my name.

And saw him saying to me, Hasten, and come quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony of me.

Paul, sent of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy the brother,


Paul, the sent of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life in Christ Jesus,


Paul, servant of God, and sent of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of the chosen of God, and the acknowledgment of the truth according to devotion;

And he said, The God of our fathers took thee in hand, to know his will, and to see the Just, and hear the voice from his mouth.

And it was to me returning to Jerusalem, and praying in the temple, I was in a deep trance: And saw him saying to me, Hasten, and come quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony of me. And I said, Lord, these know that I was imprisoning and skinning in the synagogues them believing on thee: And when the blood of Stephen thy witness was shed, I myself was standing by, and assenting to his murder, and watching the garments of them murdering him.

But arise, and stand upon thy feet: for, for this was I sent to thee, to take thee in hand, a servant and witness both of what things thou sawest, and of what I shall be seen to thee; Taking thee away from people, and nations, to whom I now send thee. To open their eyes, to turn them back from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, fur them to receive remission of sins, and inheritance with the consecrated by faith in me.

Am I not sent? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are ye not my work in the Lord If to others I am not sent, but surely I am to you: for the seal of my sending are ye in the Lord.


Am I not sent? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are ye not my work in the Lord


And I am grateful to Christ Jesus our Lord, having strengthened me, for he deemed me faithful, having set me in the service; Being before slandering, expelling, and an abuser: but I was commiserated, because I did, not knowing, in unbelief.

And quickly there fell from his eyes as scales: and he immediately looked up, and having risen, he was immersed. And having taken food, he was strong. And Saul was in Damascus with the disciples certain days. And quickly in the synagogues he proclaimed Jesus, that he is the Son of God. And all they hearing were affected in mind, and said: Is not this he having laid waste in Jerusalem those calling upon this name, and he has come here for this, that he might bring them having been bound to the chief priests? And Saul was the more strengthened, and confounded the Jews dwelling in Damascus, demonstrating that this is the Christ.

Who drove out this way even to death, binding and delivering to prison both men and women. As also the chief priest testifies of me, and all the council of elders: and whose letters to the brethren having received, I went to Damascus, going to bring there the bound to Jerusalem, that they might be punished.

And the Lord said to me, Having risen, go to Damascus; and there shall be told thee of all which has been arranged for thee to do. And when I saw not from the glory of that light, led by the hand of them being with me I came to Damascus. And a certain Ananias, a religious man according to the law, testified of by all the Jews dwelling, Having come to me, and stood, said to me, Brother Saul, look up. And the same hour I looked up to him. And he said, The God of our fathers took thee in hand, to know his will, and to see the Just, and hear the voice from his mouth. For thou shalt be a witness for him to all men of what thou hast seen and hast heard. And now what art thou about to do having risen, be immersed and wash away thy sins, having called upon the name of the Lord.

And I said, Lord, these know that I was imprisoning and skinning in the synagogues them believing on thee:

I therefore truly thought to myself, I must do many things contrary to the name of Jesus, the Nazarite. Which I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the holy ones I shut up in prison, having received authority from chief priests; and they taken up, I carried down a vote. And in all the synagogues, many times punishing them, I compelled to blaspheme; and being exceedingly enraged against them, I drove out even also to cities without. read more.
In which also going to Damascus with authority, and superintendence from the chief priests, The middle of day, I saw in the way, O king, a light from heaven, above the brilliancy of the sun, having shone around me, and those going with me.
