Among which things, being on a journey unto Damascus, with the authority and commission of the High-priests, at midday, on the road, I saw, O King, from heaven, above the splendour of the sun, shining around me, a light, and around them who, with me, were journeying; and, when we were all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice, saying unto me, in the Hebrew language - Saul!

And, I, said - Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said - I, am Jesus, whom, thou, art persecuting! But rise and stand upon thy feet; for, to this end, have I appeared unto thee, - To appoint thee an attendant and a witness, both of the things as to which thou hast seen me, and of those as to which I will appear unto thee: Rescuing thee from among the people, and from among the nations, unto whom, I, am sending thee - To open their eyes; that they turn from darkness unto light, and the authority of Satan unto God, that they may receive remission of sins, and an inheritance among them who have been made holy by the faith respecting me. Wherefore, O King Agrippa, - I became not disobedient unto the heavenly vision; But - both to them in Damascus, first, and in Jerusalem, unto all the country of Judaea also, and unto the nations, I carried tidings - that they should repent, and turn unto God, and, works worthy of their repentance, should practise.
