1
But Saul, still burning with desire to put to death the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
2
And made a request for letters from him to the Synagogues of Damascus, so that if there were any of the Way there, men or women, he might take them as prisoners to Jerusalem.
3
And while he was journeying, he came near Damascus; and suddenly he saw a light from heaven shining round him;
4
And he went down on the earth, and a voice said to him, Saul, Saul, why are you attacking me so cruelly?
5
And he said, Who are you, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus, whom you are attacking:
6
But get up, and go into the town, and it will be made clear to you what you have to do.
