Acts 9:3-8

3 1Now as he went on his way, he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him.
4 And falling to the ground he heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting 2me?"
5 And he said, "Who are you, Lord?" And he said, "I am Jesus, 3whom you are persecuting.
6 But 4rise and enter the city, and you will be told 5what you are to do."
7 6The men who were traveling with him stood speechless, 7hearing the voice but seeing no one.
8 Saul rose from the ground, and although his eyes were opened, 8he saw nothing. So they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus.
