But, Saul, yet breathing threatening and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, going unto the High-priest,

asked from him letters for Damascus, unto the synagogues; to the end that, if he should find, any, who were of The Way, whether men or women, he might bring them, bound, unto Jerusalem.

But, as he was journeying, it came to pass that he was drawing near unto Damascus, and, suddenly, there flashed around him a light out of heaven;

And, falling unto the earth, he heard a voice saying unto him - Saul! Saul! why, me, art thou persecuting?

And he said - Who art thou, Lord? And, he, said - I, am Jesus, whom, thou, art persecuting!

But rise up, and enter into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.

But, the men who were accompanying him, stood speechless, - hearing, indeed, the voice, but beholding no one.

And Saul arose from the earth, and, his eyes being opened, he could see nothing; and, taking him by the hand, they led him into Damascus, -

And he was three days without seeing, and did neither eat nor drink.
