He fell on the eretz, and heard a voice saying to him, "Sha'ul, Sha'ul, why do you persecute me?"
5
He said, "Who are you, Lord?" The Lord said, "I am Yeshua, whom you are persecuting.
6
But rise up, and enter into the city, and you will be told what you must do."
7
The men who traveled with him stood speechless, hearing the voice, but seeing no one.
8
Sha'ul arose from the ground, and when his eyes were opened, he saw no one. They led him by the hand, and brought him into Dammesek.
9
He was without sight for three days, and neither ate nor drank.
10
Now there was a certain talmid at Dammesek named Hananyah. The Lord said to him in a vision, "Hananyah!" He said, "Behold, it's me, Lord."
11
The Lord said to him, "Arise, and go to the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Yehudah for one named Sha'ul, a man of Tarsus. For behold, he is praying,
12
and in a vision he has seen a man named Hananyah coming in, and laying his hands on him, that he might receive his sight."
13
But Hananyah answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he did to your holy ones at Yerushalayim.
14
Here he has authority from the chief Kohanim to bind all who call on your name."
