But arise and enter into the city, and it shall be told you what you must do. And the men travelling with him stood amazed, hearing indeed the voice, but beholding no one. And Saul arose from the earth, and his eyes being opened he saw nothing; and leading him by the hand they conducted him to Damascus. And he was three days without sight, and neither eat nor drank. And there was a certain disciple at Damascus by the name of Ananias, and the Lord said to him in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord. And the Lord said to him, Arise and go to the street called Straight, and inquire at the house of Judas for [a man] by the name of Saul of Tarsus; for behold, he prays, and has seen a man by the name of Ananias coming and putting a hand on him, that he might receive his sight. And Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he has done to your saints at Jerusalem; and here he has power from the chief priests to bind all that call on your name. But the Lord said to him, Go, for he is a chosen vessel to me, to bear my name both before nations and kings, and the children of Israel; for I will show him how great things he must suffer for my name. And Ananias went and entered into the house, and laying hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord has sent me, Jesus who appeared to you on the way which you came, that you may receive sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.

And he was with the disciples at Damascus some days; and immediately in the synagogues he preached Jesus, that this is the Son of God. And all that heard him were astonished and said, Is not this he that destroyed those who called on this name at Jerusalem, and has come here for this purpose, that he might lead them bound to the chief priests? But Saul increased in power and confounded the Jews living at Damascus, proving that this is the Christ. And when some days had passed, the Jews took counsel to kill him; and their design was made known to Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him; but the disciples took him by night and sent him away by the wall, letting him down in a store-basket. And going to Jerusalem he endeavored to join the disciples; and they all feared him, not believing that he was a disciple.

And he was with them, entering in and going out at Jerusalem, and speaking boldly in the name of the Lord; and he spoke and disputed with the Hellenists; and they undertook to kill him; but the brothers knowing it led him away to Caesarea and sent him to Tarsus.
