Acts 22:8 In-Context

6 “As I was on my way and drew near to Damascus, about noon a great light from heaven suddenly shone around me.
7 And I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? ’
8 And I answered, ‘Who are you, Lord? ’ And he said to me, ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting. ’
9 Now those who were with me saw the light but did not understand the voice of the one who was speaking to me.
10 And I said, ‘What shall I do, Lord? ’ And the Lord said to me, ‘Rise, and go into Damascus, and there you will be told all that is appointed for you to do. ’
